Chik-Fil-A is fast becoming the newest target of my disdain.
I like their breakfast offerings, but the place is simply slammed with customers when I go to get a meal. I downloaded their app, which promises an ability to order through your phone, walk-in, pickup the order and leave. Panera seems to have the right idea with this, btw.
Oh, but Chik-Fil-A cannot be kind enough just to offer you the service. Noooooooo. They force you to purchase one of their gift cards to be able to order online.
At our "supermarket" here, not allowed to take the carts out to the parking lot. You have to transfer to a different "cart", if you can find one. The plastic bags are all stuck together! You have to show your receipt to a guard when you leave....
When I bought my house, I found a huge crucifix on a shelf in the basement. I ain't touching that. It can stay in its place, and it'll still be there when I sell the house. For all I know, someone put it there because my sump pump hole is really an unknown gateway to hell, and that sucker is protecting me.
I moved into a rental house many years ago and after several months, when I was standing on a ladder to replace a closet lightbulb, I discovered a gun on a high shelf. It was a long-barreled .22 pistol. The landlord and two previous tenants I contacted, denied knowing anything about it. I still have it, although I shot it only once, just to see if it worked. Maybe someday, I can use it to protect myself?
My dog hates wearing her sweater and tries to rub it off against walls and such, if I'm not paying attention to tell her to knock it off.
So, I wasn't paying attention and she rubbed big holes in her sweater and now my dog looks like a ghetto dog when I put it on her and take her for walks.

If you own it and feel you might use it, don't you need to get a license?
I have a bundle of xmas napkins, some pale blue with snowmen, some red with Seasons Greetings and some gold... should I use them everyday or keep them for next Xmas.... hate having these big decisions.

This is so timely - the other evening, I had a few girlfriends over to watch Calendar Girls and talk smack, and I opened my cabinet to see Thanksgiving napkins with autumn leaves on them, beckoning me to use them.
I also had some cute napkins that said, "It's not a party unless there's cake," and I would have liked to use those, but we didn't have any cake so they didn't seem to quite fit the occasion.
But now I'm worried that both types of napkins are just going to get wrinkled up and be unused and unusable within a few months.
But hope springs eternal, because I also found some really cute Peter Rabbit napkins left over from last Easter and they still looked good - and it's almost time to break those out again.
I had never bothered counting before because it was done sort of piecemeal but, due to a number of reasons, yesterday was Christmas Breakdown Day done all at once so I counted the crates.
Mrs. NBP has 18 crates of decorations she puts out. Eighteen (18) crates of that crap. Half of the shed is filled with them with the rest having to be stored off site taking up 1/3 of the storage locker.
And she wonders why I hate Christmas.
And today is Spring Decorating Day, which entails more crates.
Apparently I rashly gave away my huge bag of Mardi Gras beads and now I wish I had them back because I am Mardi Gras decorating and I need to throw them in my bushes.
