UK B!tches Unite!

[Krikit 1,164]

I would like to b!tch but I cannot specify so it makes for a really bad b!tch.

[Empress of Groovy 373]

Wow, Gemmie (and indeed Allie), that's a lot to deal with. I can only imagine. I'm not sure I can offer much except sympathy and best wishes that things will improve.

Oh yes, the pork extravaganza:

pork extravaganza

Nothing too exciting, really, I just snorted when I saw it. What's an alternative? Pork sale? Pork event? Hmm...none of it seems dignified.

[Krikit 1,164]

What a letdown. I was expecting a real extravaganza!!! As in an entire page of pork products! Steak and fruit and veg aren't pork!!!

I am decidedly underwhelmed by the pork extravaganza. I am impressed at $1 raspberries!! On sale here the best price is $2.50.

Maybe it's really some kind of code?

[Krikit 1,164]

Maybe it's really some kind of code?

As in my-dog-told-me-it's-okay-to-kill-you kind of code? Or perhaps it's subliminal as in you-need-eggs (eggstravaganza) and some extra stuff (extravaganza) and maybe we can offload our excessive inventory of organza on you (extravorganza).... and maybe all this grocery shopping is quite orgasmic (extravorgasmic). Okay, that's a stretch. Well maybe not. I can honestly say that I do get a little orgasmic when I am in a kitchen store.

You don't get out much, do you Krikit? (What am I saying... neither do I.)

[Pooky 3,775]

OK, now I'm lost

They're sending my MIL home today or tomorrow. BOOOOOOOOOO! No therapist, no hospital, no family consent.

Did I say I hate the health care system in this country? Cause I do. I hate it more than those people that check out their 66 items in the self-checkout isle at Walmart.

[Dodi 69]

Can we just shorten that statement to "I hate Walmart"?

I hate it more than those people that check out their 66 items in the self-checkout isle at Walmart Ralphs.

That would be me. I hate dealing with people and prefer to interact with machines when possible. On the other hand, I tend to grocery shop at strange hours so I rarely hold people up. Also, the Vons near me has no self-checkout option.

That is really not good, Gemmie. That will add a lot of stress to you and your husband. She needs professional help and constant supervision until the entire crisis is resolved. Take care of yourselves.

I haven't figured out at some of the stores why it doesn't always recognize that I HAVE put the item in the #@!%$^$@ bag. Supposed to be a weight thing, right? Drives me nuts.

I love the self checkout - people seem to forget to take their change all the time as I'm always finding money in them
