shrader Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Over and over I watch my wife walk into a room and leave her phone and a drink in the same exact spot. Time after time, our one year old (who is known for grabbing anything he can off of a counter top) immediately grabs that phone and drink. She says that he needs to learn that he can't just grab anything he wants. Honestly, he may learn that first before she learns her lesson. Quote

It appears that you wisely remain a dispassionate - perhaps mildly amused - bystander when it comes to how mom's rearing her cub(s). I'm all for parents' teaching lessons to, setting limits on their kids' behaviours. Lord knows we see enough sh1tty kids (people) out there in the world who didn't get enough of that at a young age. Query, though, whether a one year old* is developmentally capable of learning the desired lesson. *Stick tap to you for going with "one year old" and refraining from what most parents (myself included, days gone by) can't resist when it comes to their babies/toddlers: Pinpointing age in a weirdly specific way ("Oh, thanks, he turned 13 and a third months yesterday.")

You know what? I'm going to call him a 1 year and 363 day old for the rest of the day. Fun times coming up this weekend. But I wouldn't call me mildly amused. That hot coffee got my hand this morning instead of his head. Yeah, I'd call that a victory, but I'm sure as hell not amused. Edited January 4 by shrader 1 Quote

Neither has my 688 month old wife! Quote

At one point in the last year I decided to play this game and converted by age to months. It just so happened to be the exact day that I hit 500. 1 Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Seems that tomorrow is Zegmus Girgs....... 30th birthday. Quite the milestone. He is by far the longest currently sentenced Sabre. He has been through everything, but winning. Good luck to him. Happy Birthday !! We promise you a parade one day. He is also known Zemgus. Details, details ... Quote

Details, details ... I want to see him gone. I want to see Kyle gone. But, I'd love to see them play for the Sabres in the playoffs first. That's why I refuse to give upon this season. Quote

Putting away Christmas stuff, one wonders if you just had your last one. I've been retired for 7 years. Luckily, I have good beer and whiskey to fall back on. Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 6 Report Posted January 6 Fire up the Pegula jet ... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-67902806?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=KARANGA This guys is such a loser. I would trade him for a 9th rounder right now. Quote
Contempt Posted January 7 Report Posted January 7 Just watched Army yak up a 6-2 lead v. Penn State. Currently 7-6 late in the 3rd. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 14 Report Posted January 14 Happy Birthday JJP. All of 22 years old today. Is it just me, or are they making them younger and younger every year ?? Also, Peterka is a pretty exotic name, but John and Jason - not so much. Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 25 Report Posted January 25 Happy Birthday, Krebsie !! All of 23 today. Yikes!! Quote
Marvin Posted January 25 Report Posted January 25 What does it mean when I would rather watch bad Sabres hockey over another second of 2024 election news? I used to follow both with some intensity. Now, the Sabres are sometimes borderline unbearable -- but I find it preferable to just the news, especially the election. Quote
Stoner Posted January 25 Author Report Posted January 25 (edited) Would drivers please pretty please stop giving up the right of way and waving me to proceed? I don't get it. I hate to stare them down and most of the time tick them off, but I will not allow anothet driver to drive my car for me. Edited January 25 by PASabreFan 3 Quote
