But we DO favor nonsense.
Holy Squark !now it IS 12000
Nearly 12,000 posts about nonsense.
That's what they think. In between the nonsense, we regulars, have shared so much. Pain and joy, sadness and happiness. Deaths and (sadly so few) births. Lost jobs and new ones, bad and good health. We're a family within a greater community. This is the family we choose.
Funny thing though.... the Hivemind has more than 12k posts. This is just the most recent thread. Can't forget the time we had to make a thread after 1k posts... and how quickly we went through Hivemind threads! Crazy to think that pretty much all of us are remnants of that time, how long ago that was and how we have still returned to the Hivemind (albeit with less regularity or frequency).Nearly 12,000 posts about nonsense.

I got in a conversation with a young woman about high school. She said she graduated 12 years ago. I said that wasn't that long ago. I was more than 20 years out, that I graduated in 94. To which she said she was born in 93.
Where's my cane? I feel old.
I saw a woman at the gas station in pajamas and slippers, and wrapped in a blanket. It was 3:30 am but still. I said "You look comfortable." She replied "I am soooooo comfortable."
So very true and though I wouldn't recognize anyone here on the street if I met you I consider you guys friends.
