misplacedbrit That's just priceless LOL! Kids are so precious at that age, and they never fail to amaze me with their logic! A lot of times, their logic makes so much sense you begin to wonder why you didn't think of it. I think a large part of why we laugh at things...

misplacedbrit How about making something like burgers? Using ground beef it's really easy to do, and there are TONS of great recipes out there! Or, if you're into food that's a little spicier, try fajitas or tacos. Home made are MUCH better than the store bought kits out...

Living on water

natnickeep @natnickeep (2336) • United States 25 Apr 11

Are we coming upon the days where living on water will be just the same as on land? Would you ever want to live on a boat or a home on the water. I came across this freedom ship...

misplacedbrit I think in practical terms, this freedom ship will never come into being, but I have to admit I love the idea behind it! Imagine being able to travel the world whilst going about your everyday life! That would be amazing! I too, have never bought or owned...

Some of you remember the issues we face with our roommate. Things are getting worse now that it's getting warmer and he knows that he has to move out. He had told us that he hadn't showered in months, claimed to have only...

misplacedbrit From what you have said here about this man, I think when he leaves you won't get back the 1K he owes you. Sounds to me like he will pack up and run. I just don't understand anyone who won't take a shower. Do they not realize how bad they smell? Aside from...

misplacedbrit The only game I really 'cheat' at is The Sims 2 series. I spend HOURS playing Sims 2, along with the expansion packs I have, and so when I start a new game, I enter in a cheat to give me a lot of money so that I can build a really nice house for my Sim to live...

Do you listen to music that other people don't seem to understand?

sashakiddo @sashakiddo (1102) • United States 25 Apr 11

Maybe there are times when you love a band so much but none of your friends seem to like them. Or maybe you like a song so much you listen to it over and over and everyone else just thinks it's a regular old song. This happens...

misplacedbrit For me, it's not so much a particular Band, or song that I like but none of my friends do, it's a genre of music itself. Many of my friends are into Country music, and my hubby and best friend are both into Rock music. However, I LOVE Techno/Trance music,...
