    Make up a lie about yourself

    I'm not a pig. The last half of the lasagna got knocked off the kitchen counter, when the dog was counter surfing. He ate it all before I could stop him.

    Emotional Support Peacock denied boarding a United Flight

    I feel sorry for the peacock. I wonder if the owner is in the right state of mind to properly care for it.

    Taking things with a grain of salt...

    I have to agree with this. People describing their negative experiences at Disney does not necessarily make them negative people. They simply had a bad experience, from their own unique perspective. And many people want to help others on the forum by relaying their bad experiences, so that other...

    Most significant change in your lifetime?

    From a business perspective it is the Internet. Entire businesses were started and run solely on the Internet. Many small business owners' livelihood is mostly Internet based. It has affected the retail industry big time. Big companies like Amazon are internet based. Many businesses have shut...

    Any major airlines you would pay MORE to avoid?

    Nope. Last time I checked he wasn't an airline. And he wasn't behaving as badly as you are right now, and definitely not behaving as badly the flight attendant. His remarks to the flight attendant were nowhere near as snarky as your reply. So if there's bad behavior to call out, I suggest you...

    Any major airlines you would pay MORE to avoid?

    We haven't flown United for last 5 years because of a few bad experiences. The worst and final one was with a flight attendant who was angry at us because DS who was 4 at the time, sneezed on her while she was serving snacks and drinks. We apologized and DH reprimanded him for not covering his...

    What makes you feel old?

    When I can no longer eat what I want when I want without gaining weight. I used to be a bottomless pit and the scale never budged. Now if I even think of food, I swear I gain a pound. Also, when I'm in any theme park on any given ride or attraction, even on a roller coaster with everyone...

    Does your 10/11 year old believe in Santa still?

    My youngest DS9 doesn't believe, but only because his older siblings pretty much gave it away, though not intentionally. I would rather have him still believe, if only for the selfish reason of me seeing him excited at Christmastime and being extra well behaved for the month of Dec. He has even...

    Does anyone else avoid booking resorts themed like 'home'?

    Now that you mention this, I now realize why I steer away from beach-themed decor. We live close to the beaches and all the Florida beach-themed Christmas decor in the stores with the seashells, starfish, lighted fake palm trees is getting old. Like you say, old news. Even Hawaiian themes are...

    Vegetarian and Gluten Free

    I suggest Boma at AKL. DD15 is vegan, gluten free so we eat there a lot to accommodate her. The chef can talk to your family member and show him/her which buffet items are vegetarian and gluten-free, and can even whip up a special vegan, gluten-free dessert as well.

    How bad is the water?

    We live in FL and we don't even give straight tap water to our dog. We have to drink filtered water, a good filtration system makes the water taste so much better. Without filtration the water has an odd sour taste. And when we were in Destin it had an eggy taste.

    Letting Teens go by themselves

    DS17, DS13, and DS9 have gone alone to another park while the rest of the family was in a different theme park. I expected DS17 to look after DS13&9 and he did just that with no problems. Not sure about two 14 yr olds though --- like everyone said, it's their maturity level and their ability to...

    Female Comedian Sued Because of Girls-Only Show

    "There was no mistake. It's not about a fun night out for ladies, nor, I'm sure, is the performer or the promoters sorry this guy filed a civil suit. :rolleyes: There is no such thing as bad publicity." Depends on who you ask. Not every female entertainer is desperate enough to intentionally...

    Female Comedian Sued Because of Girls-Only Show

    Perhaps this comedian's mistake was advertising it as a "girls ONLY" event. They could have avoided stating this outright, maybe advertise it as "Girls night" not "Girls ONLY". And then if a few men decide to see the show anyway, they could have just been accepted in for the show without anyone...

    Skip FOP?

    Congrats on being cancer-free ---that is definitely worth going to Disney for. If you have absolutely zero interest in FOP then there's no need to feel Disney-peer-pressured into experiencing it. You don't have to be like everyone else. My entire family enjoyed it, but I personally wouldn't wait...

    What discontinued snack/beverage would you bring back?

    I remember Edy's used to make some sort of orange sherbet or ice cream with chocolate chips or chocolate shards in it. I think it was called Swiss Orange. Maybe it was discontinued because nobody else liked it. But I fondly remember it and I loved it, it was so yummy. The tart, creamy orange...

    What were the big hit presents this year?

    DD really loved her new Vitamix blender. She screamed in deafening delight when she unwrapped it, and I reveled in the spontaneous hugs and kisses she gave me throughout the day. She has heavily used and broken two cheaper brand blenders already, just by concocting her vegan smoothies. This...

    Does anyone have or have experience with Alopecia?

    Isn't alopecia areata an autoimmune disease? It wouldn't hurt to try out the gluten-free diet. If it isn't the gluten, maybe it could besomething else in your diet? My daughter gave me the health book "The China Study" and it states that there is a correlation between the consumption of cow's...

    Cancel or go alone?

    I think you should go, and book yourself some spa time if you want, at least some massages or facials and mani-pedi. You can dine out at the fancier restaurants and catch up on some sleep. It gives you a chance to pay attention to yourself instead of the kids for once. Now that my kids are a...

    What are you giving to your spouse/SO this year?

    a TV for his man cave. Can't have him hogging the family room TV when I or the kids want to watch something else.
