Fun Friday (Part 2)

[WilaEve]

@Feathertip

Do you like the taste of cough syrup?

I have actually never had cough syrup, though, I hearcthat it doesn’t taste very good.

@Feathertip

How far can you throw a Frisbee?

I don’t have a accurate measurement, I wanna say that I can throw it a good couple of yards if I throw it properly. Though, I LOVE throwing the frisbee nevertheless.

@Feathertip

Is it ketchup or catsup in your part of the world? Do you put it on your hash browns?

For sure ketchup. No body in my family says catsup and I have never heard anyone in person say catsup. If i am at a breakfast restaurant, like IHOP, I ight put it on hash browns, but if I have sunny side up eggs, the eggs go first, then ketchup on top. Chef’s kiss.

@Feathertip

What was the last TV show you binge-watched?

That’s funny because for New Year’s Day and maybe the next day, my mom, older brother, and I will binge watch the old Twilight Zone. I live in Japan now, but still kepy the tradition alive and have been watching it for the past two days.

@Feathertip

What do you do with your shopping cart when you’re done unloading it?

I am not a crazy person, you take it back to the rest of the carts and politely merge it with the others. I hope many others do that. I will say that if aomeone is on their way to the store, and we make eye contact I will ask if they want it, and if they do and then it saves both of us time.

@Feathertip

Do you like the taste of cough syrup?

I dislike the taste of alcohol. If I can get the non- alcoholic kind, it is tolerable. Still, I avoid using medicine of any kind to the best of my ability… until I just can’t avoid it anymore. It’s like in magick: use just enough to get the job done without overdoing it. Most cold meds treat multiple symptoms which are not always present, which causes side effects which can be avoided.

@Feathertip

How far can you throw a Frisbee?

About 6 feet in a good wind.

@Feathertip

Is it ketchup or catsup in your part of the world? Do you put it on your hash browns?

The packets in the drive through bag say Ketchup. I used to make kiddie pizza with it, but that’s been a good 40 years ago.

Toast bread. Spread ketchup. Dust with oregano, garlic, and onion powder. Add thin slices of hot dog or other pizza toppings. Cover with a slice of cheese. Bake at 350 for 15- 20 minutes or microwave 2 minutes to melt the cheese. Easy meal when babysitting, as long as the kids don’t watch you make it.

In my youth, the condiments were cat soup and mouse turds. Of course, that was before we had the high fallutin’s asking if we had grey poop on it. And people wondered why the ritzy product didn’t make it big!

@Feathertip

What was the last TV show you binge-watched?

Ooh. I’ve been setting myself up to binge on Ancient Mysteries with Leonard Nimoy. I’ve only found 11 of 26 episodes, though. The last binge session may have included One Step Beyond, MASH, Cosmos with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, In Search Of, and Ray Bradbury. I don’t remember the order in which I watched them.

@Feathertip

What do you do with your shopping cart when you’re done unloading it?

Most of the time, my driver takes it to the cart corral while I get into the truck. She spoils me. Last time, I was closer to the back of the truck. I took the cart so she could get to her door.

@dan3

the woman heard words she probably still hears in her sleep.

I don’t blame you! People don’t watch what they are doing anymore! If I don’t see a cart corral, I may park a cart at the front of the car where it won’t get hit, but would be available for the next customer… and yes, I do bring in a cart from the lot if it is convenient.

@Amethyst

In the house, at least ten feet or however far away the most expensive object to break is.

[BizzzyBee22]

Do you like the taste of cough syrup?

Oddly enough I dont mind it at all… even as a kid! Give me grape please and thank you! I dont really use store bought cough syrup much though, I prefer a natural but I keep a bottle in my stash.

How far can you throw a Frisbee?

I really don’t know

Is it ketchup or catsup in your part of the world?

Ketchup

Do you put it on your hash browns?

Depends on how I am feeling lol

What was the last TV show you binge-watched?

As Told by Ginger and Fear of the Walking Dead

What do you do with your shopping cart when you’re done unloading it?

I walk it to the cart thingamajigger lol (idk what its called)… I cant stand when people leave the carts in the the lot and in parking spots… nothing worse then needing a spot and having to get out and move a f**king cart Always be considerate to others

[tracyS]

Yeay fun Friday although it’s Saturday here so I’m late

3 tomato sauce, and no I hate the stuff

4 Supernatural, bingeing it now for the millionth time

5 put it back as we have to pay £1 to use it, so I get me £1 back

Have a great weekend all.

@CelestiaMoon

Come for the frisbee, stay for the wrist action

So glad I’m not the only one whose brain went here!

[Feathertip]

@Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth

Heck no! When I’m sick, I drink, tea, tea, tea! With lemon and raw honey. And lots of it!

I’m with you there, sister! I’ll never understand why “cherry cough syrup” is supposed to go down easily. I’m not trying to add nausea to my list of complaints with a head cold!

@Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth

I always end up flinging it at someone and knocking them down!

@Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth

I think the last show I binged watched with my daughter was “Queer Eye.”

That’s another show that I know got great reviews but I never watched! Thanks for the mention!

@Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth

if the corral is 10 miles away in another county.

I’ll never understand why stores do this to us!!

[Feathertip]

@CelestiaMoon

My go-to mix has been honey, ginger, lemon, turmeric and black pepper with a green tea base, optionally with some spiced rum or Fireball added in Will have to give cayenne pepper a try next time. Especially as it reminds me of a certain cute witch who uses it a lot

ooo! Another interesting home recipe! I didn’t know it was a thing!

@CelestiaMoon

Depends on how many trees there are in the way, and whether I’m standing on a hill or not And if the wind fairies are liking my face that day or not.

Another girl after my own heart!

@CelestiaMoon

White Lotus
Loved the characters and the tension between them. Devoured the first and the third season, ended up skipping the second, didn’t really like the setting and the cast.

That’s always a great show! I get what you’re saying about the second season, BUT it does end up pulling you in - they always do.

@Amethyst

Yeah, I don’t think there’s a correct emoticon for what I want to say. So I’ll say nothing.

@CelestiaMoon

Come for the frisbee, stay for the wrist action

You two are very naughty witches! I adore you both!

[Feathertip]

@Amethyst

I didn’t used to, and I’ve been taking the capsules for cough meds instead of the syrup for so long, I don’t know what the new, modern cough syrups would taste like.

I doubt they’ve improved it much. And these days, it would cost too much to find out!

@Amethyst

Umm, it depends. Out in a field? Probably two feet, tops. In the house, at least ten feet or however far away the most expensive object to break is.

@Amethyst

It’s ketchup here, and I’m a weirdo. I don’t even put ketchup on fries, unless they’re really bad fries.

You’re not a weirdo!! Finally, someone else who doesn’t like the stuff! Even bad fries only need more salt to taste better!

@Amethyst

Law and Order, Forever Knight, and Spencer for Hire. I’m stuck in the 80s/90s.

Not a bad place to be stuck at all!

[Feathertip]

@WilaEve

I don’t have a accurate measurement, I wanna say that I can throw it a good couple of yards if I throw it properly. Though, I LOVE throwing the frisbee nevertheless.

I agree -it’s fun! Especially when the wind gods are kind and you get to watch it sail so beautifully! (Doesn’t happen to me very often!)

@WilaEve

That’s funny because for New Year’s Day and maybe the next day, my mom, older brother, and I will binge watch the old Twilight Zone. I live in Japan now, but still kepy the tradition alive and have been watching it for the past two days.

That’s awesome! We used to do that, too! Someone is always running a Twilight Zone marathon on New Year’s Eve, it seems. I actually forgot to look for it this year! Have fun!!

@WilaEve

I am not a crazy person, you take it back to the rest of the carts and politely merge it with the others. I hope many others do that. I will say that if aomeone is on their way to the store, and we make eye contact I will ask if they want it, and if they do and then it saves both of us time.

That’s always the best outcome, isn’t it? You don’t have to go all the way back to the stacks, and neither does the person who is coming in. Very kind of you to make the offer!

@georgia

I dislike the taste of alcohol. If I can get the non- alcoholic kind, it is tolerable. Still, I avoid using medicine of any kind to the best of my ability… until I just can’t avoid it anymore. It’s like in magick: use just enough to get the job done without overdoing it.

That’s a great analogy!

Oh, somebody had a wicked sense of humor! I’ve never heard that one before - classic kid-speak!

@georgia

Fabulous lineup! Leonard Nimoy has a beautiful voice for narration. I love Cosmos, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a fun and informative host for that show.

Hi, @BizzzyBee22 ! Great to see you in here! I’m glad to hear somebody actually likes the stuff. You’re not alone, since it’s a very popular item and it must help, too!

@BizzzyBee22

As Told by Ginger and Fear of the Walking Dead

Here’s another one I haven’t heard of, As Told by Ginger. I’ll check that one out! Fear of The Walking Dead sounds like it might give me nightmares.

@BizzzyBee22

I walk it to the cart thingamajigger lol (idk what its called)… I cant stand when people leave the carts in the the lot and in parking spots… nothing worse then needing a spot and having to get out and move a f**king cart Always be considerate to others

Calling it the cart thingamajigger works just fine! Isn’t it the worst to think you’ve found a great parking spot, only to pull in and realize there’s a cart in the way? Hmmmph! It’s rude AND lazy!

@tracyS

Yeay fun Friday although it’s Saturday here so I’m late

You’re never late, lovely! You come here whenever time permits!

@tracyS

Yes, I could drink the bottle

@BizzzyBee22 See? You’re not alone! This is what keeps it on the store shelves!

@tracyS

tomato sauce, and no I hate the stuff

Ah, so that’s what it’s called in the UK! On this side of the pond, tomato sauce is quite a different thing.

@tracyS

Supernatural, bingeing it now for the millionth time

ooo! Another one I’ll have to look up!

@tracyS

put it back as we have to pay £1 to use it, so I get me £1 back

See, that’s how easy it is to get people to be polite about it - hit 'em in the wallet!

[Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth]

@Feathertip

That’s another show that I know got great reviews but I never watched! Thanks for the mention!

The show is so good! You’ll definitely need tissue! A lot of the episodes can be very emotional. I’ve cried so many times lol. I highly recommend it!

[Amethyst]

@Feathertip

You two are very naughty witches! I adore you both!

In a month and two years or so, I’ll be fifty-five. Then I can officially be a dirty old broad! That’s my goal at least!

[CelestiaMoon]

And I’ll never be too old to be called a sex kitten Never too old to ride except when my back decides to say so

[Amethyst]

I thought that was what sex slings are for? When your back goes out.

[CelestiaMoon]

There you go! Where there’s a horny will, there’s a horny way!

[Greenbriar]

• Do you like the taste of cough syrup?
  I don’t care for the “cherry” flavor, but something like Nyquil doesn’t taste too bad.

• How far can you throw a Frisbee?
  Ask me if I’ve ever throw. a frisbee…

• Is it ketchup or catsup in your part of the world? Do you put it on your hash browns?
  I don’t know about anyone else round here, but I’ve always called it ketchup. I put it on the side of my hash browns.

• What was the last TV show you binge-watched?
  We don’t “binge watch” per se, but rather watch an episode Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Right now we’re watching The Brokenwood Mysteries and Shetland on Acorn TV (Amazon Prime)

• What do you do with your shopping cart when you’re done unloading it?
  I always try to park near the cart corral, or at least as near as I can. Less chance of falling flat on my face that way.

[Amethyst]

@CelestiaMoon

There you go! Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

Necessity is the mother of invention. Good batteries help too!

@Eira_of_the_Living_Hearth

Sorry, dear heart. Sometimes I can’t help myself. My brain goes into the gutter very easily.

[CelestiaMoon]

Well, isn’t it supposed to be Fun Friday? We all have ways to have our fun! Like encouraging the mind to go exactly there and making you think these spoilers hide something really dirty! Oh, and sex I suppose

[Feathertip]

@Greenbriar

Ask me if I’ve ever throw. a frisbee…

Jayne! Have you never thrown a Frisbee? Ask your husband if he’s thrown one.

@Greenbriar

We don’t “binge watch” per se, but rather watch an episode Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

Close enough!

@Greenbriar

Right now we’re watching The Brokenwood Mysteries and Shetland on Acorn TV (Amazon Prime)

Bah! I don’t have Amazon Prime. Probably won’t get it, either. Some of the streaming services are cheap, but Hulu apparently thinks quite highly of itself. I’m too cheap to shell out any more. I miss some good stuff sometimes!

@Greenbriar

I always try to park near the cart corral, or at least as near as I can. Less chance of falling flat on my face that way.

That’s exactly what I do! My old HEB store in Texas had the perfect setup for me. I miss that store.
