Looks like the scammers have started doing that thing again where they "hack" (i.e., type P@ssword123! into the password field) into old inactive accounts and use them to post their spam.

Casual dating is one of the many ways to get your corn cob shucked.

Shucking stations at grocery stores are actually “hook up” locations.

I don't like Corn. Never have.

However, at my first office, next door was a Balloon trip company. And every year they'd have a corn party.

So they'd take this gigantic cauldron and fill it with water, in the parking lot, and then put all of their corn in it.

Then...they'd wheel out a Balloon engine (is that the right term?) and then put it, in the parking lot, on it's side...and fire it up. And thats how they'd boil the water.

That was....INSANE. It shook the windows.

You dont see the power of a Balloon engine as it spews fire into the Balloon. You put that bastard on it's side in a commercial Parking Lot? You gain a lot more respect.

No kidding. Are there people that use the fireplaces inside their homes for cooking?

Not a fireplace, but as a young kid I cooked hot dogs over the gas stove.

I've used a patio heater to roast marshmallows before. Does that count?

When we lived down east we used to heat our house with a wood burning stove.

Wood was cheap and oil wasn't.

My dad would light it in the early fall and it would burn until spring.

It was my job to get up 15 mins early and get the fire roaring so the house was warm for everyone else.

I feel like you're learning something about someone's personality based on the speed of their windshield wipers in weather like this. Not sure what though.

Those with wipers going slow and steady vs those wiping at maximum speed.

Then there are those who never even notice that it stopped raining…. And leave them on. Easily the scariest people on the road IMO.

I'm guessing there's a strong correlation to the pace of their love-making.

I have manual wipers, so when it’s raining (since rain here is so rarely consistent) it’s the control I’m messing with the most.

There’s off, intermittent 1, 2, 3, 4, constant medium, constant fast, and I’ll usually cycle through 3 of those settings at minimum through every rainy drive, but usually 4 or 5.

It’s nice when it’s a heavy rain the entire drive and you can just leave it going.

"pace of their love making"?

My husband can last for hours! Who wants to tell her the truth?

Mustache dudes are the worst. Like, are they joking? If so, okay, it's kind of funny. If they genuinely think they look good then I hate them (the person and the stache).

After attending my son’s grad yesterday, I can say that moustaches on teens look truly cringey.
