AND THOSE SHEEP LIE!

Yes they do. The sheep and the goats will scream for food every single time they hear me outside. And I go outside on average probably 2 dozen times a day...in/out/in/out....goats and sheep screaming.

The guineas and the roosters were ALL on a tear yesterday. I looked and looked. Saw nothing. But they wouldn't shut up for about 20 solid minutes. Must've been a dangerous rabid leaf that fell from the tree or something else equally as vicious. So I told them all to shut the hell up. They did. Should have thought of that sooner.

Our horses are the same way

I have one goat in particular who's the screamer. I'm just glad he finally got his "big boy" voice. When he was a baby he sounded alarmingly like my son yelling for me. LO discovered this and found it hilarious, so they would get into "MOM" shouting matches.
LO: MOOOOOOMMMM!
Skeeter: MEEEEEEEEEHHHHM!
LO: MOOOOOOMMMM!
Skeeter: MEEEEEEEEEHHHHM!

Overuse of the ignore button. Disagree on one thread/topic and go to ignore? Does it override every other topic? I don't get it. If not actively trolling or spamming, just use the ignore feature in your head.

I'm not afraid to hear someone's opinion, (even if I think it's pitiful ). I agree, unless it's spam or trolls, then I'll click them off.
Don't let them bait you.
Don't give them free rent in your head.

Firefox, with Ublock origin and Ghostery, still there.
edit: I rarely get on youtube so it's not a huge deal.

Hey, I think I've found a solution! It has to do with cookies/cache. There were video ads on my Brave browser (with uBlock Origin), but after I deleted the YouTube cookies and set it to block cookies, no more ads!

One thing that gets on my nerves are dresser drawers that don't close or open smoothly. And I'm not talking about drawers that are over stuffed, just ones that don't slide in or out easily.
We always got thrift store dressers or ones that were free on the side of the road when I was a kid and they never worked right. Maybe one or two drawers would, but most would stick and I would have to pull aggressively to get them open.
Fast forward to a few years ago when my husband started crafting our bedroom set. He put in soft close slides on my dresser drawers. Hallelujah!

You’d have a stroke with my kitchen drawers then. People who built this house didn’t consider handles when opening drawers, they whack into each other and you can’t open them more than 8 inches each, so I popped all the handles off and replaced them with zip ties and a bolt. Looks less janky than it sounds

Would you show me what this looks like? I can't even picture it.
