Dreams dreams dreams

Abhijit Bangal @abhi_bangal (5458) • Ahmednagar, India 30 Oct

If researchers are to be believed, we have at least 4 to 6 dreams everyday. And each one of them lasts at least 5 minutes spanning up to 20 minutes. However 95% of the times, we do not remember what we dreamt, by the time we get...

jipsyjo30 I have had very lucid dreams and keep a dream journal. What is weird is that I've had dreams that seemed to last for hours but in reality, I only took a half-hour nap! I've never understood the mysterious concept of time when it comes to dreaming.

snowy @snowy22315 (179921) • United States 31 Oct

jipsyjo30 Yeah, I saw something I wish I had unseen in my neighborhood. I spotted what looked like a Siamese twin squirrel crossing the condo parking lot with some difficulty. Upon a closer look, I was horrified to see this squirrel had attacked another one and had it...

Well, That Was a First

Jim Bauer @porwest (89669) • United States 8 Oct

That's not my porch! I don't order that often from Amazon, but when I have, I have never had any issue getting my orders. Except this time. I bought some cat food and AAA batteries and they were supposed to be delivered...

jipsyjo30 Well, a couple of months ago, I received an empty package from Amazon. It contained organic Brazil nuts. It looked like someone had cut it open or it was never sealed properly. My question is, "How did the driver not notice it was an empty bubble mailer?!"

Do not EVER buy this product!

The Horse @TheHorse (218140) • Walnut Creek, California 31 Aug 18

I generally avoid buying food products at the Dollar Tree, but the other day I took a chance. I had once bought Andersen's Pea Soup at a dollar store, and it was the real deal and tasted great. I had a taste for chicken noodle...

jipsyjo30 I know that pea soup you're talking about from the Dollar Tree. It's so good! But hard to come by. Not all Dollar Trees carry it. Just tonight I had to throw out some frozen broccoli, A few pieces were yellow and had a funky chemical flavor. It was so bad...

jipsyjo30 I would send it back if it was really bad and just leave, only paying for drinks and appetizers, whatever was edible. I'm too afraid to ask for the entree to be redone because I've heard of stories where the cooks or waiters spit in the food before sending it...

Are you afraid of flying?

Diana @dya80dya (36486) 16 Aug 18

I am afraid to fly. I never travelled in other country and I never flied. I would feel stuck in the plane. For me it would be difficult. What sensations do you feel when you fly?

jipsyjo30 Yeah, I've botched the lyrics to quite a few songs in my time. I was kid in the 80's and distinctly remember thinking the main lyrics to Karma Chameleon were "comma" chameleon. I think the fact that we were learning punctuation and grammar in school...
