This is exactly what my dad does. "It's easier" means "I can't be bothered to spend five minutes figuring out what the question I really want to ask is, and write it out in a ten word text. So instead I'll ramble for fifteen minutes and hope you figure it out for me."

When people say "it's easier" they mean for them, not you.

It's a song about a ship that sank, a pretty good song too, imo.

This happened to me when I was a kid. My family was having a picnic which included the rare treat of fried chicken. A wasp buzzed down, landed on my chicken and sawed away a chunk of it. Then it took off, faltered because the chunk was so heavy, then buzzed away. Your comparison to a helicopter is spot on! We all just sat there and watched it, not knowing what to do. We still talk about how weird that was.

I'll suggest that to the neighbors. Maybe they'll trying one-upping each other and the rest of us can just walk down the block like it's a buffet.

 

Perfectly normal sidewalk offering.

"Some is better than none." -My motto throughout college.

Usually I was stressed by the number of chapters I had to read, or pages I had to write. Instead of shutting down and not doing anything, I would tell myself to just read a single page or write a paragraph because any amount of work done is better than nothing.

Now I apply it to work and chores.

Too many times did I have them jumping from all directions....

Yikes. Well, at least is was mostly just a fun holiday tradition 😬

Holy moly, that sounds like a very unpleasant basement to have to deal with.

"Whelp, time to do laundry. The fun part is when the creepy mutant spider cricket launches itself at my face, yay!"

Clearly I was very lucky. I highly doubt the tenants ever used the place either. It just belonged to the crickets.

 

I'm still new to cross stitch. My mom sent me this cheetah kit made by The Stranded Stitch. So far, so fun!
