This or that?

@Bubbles66,

On a calendar...

You are dining with friends at their house... they have seated you next to an individual you have a poor relationship with... ask to be seated elsewhere, or grin and bear it?

At the checkout in the supermarket you notice the assistant has given you too much change. Do you say about it, or just sort of whistle to yourself while quietly going out of the door?

I say nothing... and quickly go out the door Smile

Keep a record of your weekly spending, or just pay up and forget it?

@P E Dant,

Just pay up and forget it.

Use the calendar app on your phone or have a physical paper calendar to write your appointments on?

Brown bread or white bread for toast?

Brown bread (usually has higher dietary fiber than white bread).

Today I have learnt that candy can be seasonal... never experienced it before, and never ever thought of such a thing! My favourite candy is jelly snakes or frogs, available all-year round Smile

You have been invited to be a Godparent... do you take this seriously, and do a little research into what such a title entails, or just accept it and go with the flow of interaction with the child and parent/s?

@P E Dant,

That did happen to me. I didn't really take it seriously. I had an "I'll cross that bridge when I get to it . . . or not" attitude.

You notice that one of the rear tires on the car in front of you has very low air pressure. They pull into a party store. Do you follow them in and warn them about their, or just keep driving?

@Glennn,

Warn them... hopefully, it will never happen to me, but if it did, I would hope that some kind soul would alert me to it... although, if the tire is very low, you can sometimes tell by the car's performance

A friend plays golf regularly, you don't... one day they ring and ask you to help make up a foursome because their original partner can't make it... there is $$$$$ involved! Do you go, and hope for the best, or beg off?

@P E Dant,

I would give it a try and hope for the best. That's my life!

You decide that the person in the car in front of you that turned in to a party store will surely notice the difference in performance due to a severely low tire and you drive on by, only to hear later that they crashed into something because the tire failed. Do you visit them in the hospital, or just drive on by?

@Glennn,

I would visit them in hospital, and leave them with 2 business cards

1. Dant Tire Replacement And Fitting
2. Dant Legal

Your 'across the street' neighbour is having a very noisy late-night party... do you wander over and just mingle with the guests, help yourself to any available goodies and join the vibe, or do you ring the police ?

@P E Dant,

I wander over and mingle with the guests and help myself to any available goodies, of course. And when I've had my fill, I go back home and ring the police.

A relative bakes you something sweet for the holidays, but it tastes like shyt. Do you hurt their feelings, or do you keep it to yourself?

@Glennn,

I'd would keep it to myself.

A neighbours teenager continually practises playing the trumpet, much to the annoyance of you. Would you go there and politely ask can he/she practise a bit more quieter, or do you grin and bear the noise?

1 Reply

@Bubbles66,

Been there, done that. The kid has to practice. You have to do something about the kid. And, like the shytty tasting sweets from a family member, I keep it to myself!

Your neighbor's mail--credit card offer--winds up in your mailbox. Toss it, or drive it on over to them?

@Glennn,

I would slip it into their mailbox

You get an unexpected day off from work... go to a movie you have been wanting to see, or catch up with paperwork/housework at home?

1 Reply

@P E Dant,

Every day is an expected day off work that never disappoints. I have VUDU, so I don't have to go to the theater where I could possibly contract covid. But given a choice, I would prefer anything to housework; even baling hay or picking stones.

You've let the rusty muffler on your car go for so long once that you were worried about being pulled over.

@Glennn,

False.

When driving around you keep your window open a bit, or keep it closed.

@Bubbles66,

Keep it closed . . . unless something about a passenger caused me to want to open it some.

You drink coffee at will, or limit yourself to a couple cups in the morning?
