    A Culture of Snark

    I think snark and sarcasm have their place. I love early SNL, Letterman and Daria (MTV) as a few examples. I do agree with Lizzie: I think the original point I was making has been lost -- it has nothing to do with nostalgia and everything to do with the oversaturation of today's culture with...

    "I'm not sure if you want to post up details of the best 22 seconds of your life here." <-- That was funny. Anyway, ew, TMI. Moving along now.

    24 Rules For Gentlemen in 2014

    But the world doesn't know or want to know about your personal exploits, like: I was 19 the first time I experienced "manhood", and luckily for me, it was with a woman in her mid 30's. At the time I figured it might be my only shot in life at that sort of thing, so I gave it 110%.

    Any writers?

    Interesting. I ditched the novel because it was not good. The memoirs are still "one day." I self-published the self-help.

    What Does The FL Think of So-called Black Friday?

    I don't own or want a big screen TV. However I was able to buy (online) clothing I normally can't afford because it was 40% off for Black Friday. No complaints here. My husband was also in the USMC and when he first got out we had very little in the way of money or things. We went to a big box...

    Lizzie I bought The Status Seekers and The People Shapers which are next in line. I'll add The Waste Makers. Thanks.

    Forbidden items in my home...

    I can attest that this is true. I wish someone would paint one with something even slightly exciting happening, like a couple arguing in front of it, or seagulls stealing food from tourists' beach blankets.

    His paint droppings can usually be found on cards, mugs and other imprintable things at any retail store, often doused with glitter and other garish gimmickry. Also if you hit any yard sales you're bound to see his puzzles.
