@catshealworldd Definitely. And my male cat understands the question: “Where is your sister?” and goes off looking for her. As for “Dinner” and “Treats” - well, duh.

@jenny_dillon Check their profiles - I’ve supposedly unfollowed people I have definitely not unfollowed. Maybe like or retweet a few of their posts so the algorithm picks up on it. It’s bloody hard work these days 🤷‍♀️

Things I have learned from the movies" Having watched hundreds of movies, they have taught me many things that I would like to share with you today: 1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year. 2. All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her. 3. All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread. 4. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off - even while scuba diving. 5. The ventilation system of any building is a perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building without difficulty. 6. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do. 7. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris. 8. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds. 9. When paying for a taxi, never look at your wallet as you take out a note - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare. 10. If you lose a hand, it will cause the stump of your arm to grow by 15cm. 11. Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning, even though the husband and children never have time to eat them. 12. Cars and trucks that crash will almost always burst into flames. 13. A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium. 14. Medieval peasants had perfect teeth. 15. All single women have a cat. 16. Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant. 17. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one. 18. Creepy music coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated. 19. Most people keep a scrapbook of newspaper cuttings - especially if any of their family or friends has died in a strange boating accident. 20. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor. 21. During a very emotional confrontation, instead of facing the person you are speaking to, it is customary to stand behind them and talk to their back. 22. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your room will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish. 23. Dogs always know who's bad and will naturally bark at them. 24. When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other. 25. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gases, lasers and man eating sharks that will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape. 26. Having a job of any kind will make all fathers forget their son's eighth birthday. 27. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off. 28. It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting. 29. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty. 30. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

@Dunhacking I don't think many of them are oblivious - that's the thing. I think some folk are fully aware of what they are doing. They just put on a "mask" and ignore people and hope nobody asks anything of them.

Admittedly, I am a ball of anger these days and can take minor interactions with strangers too personally, but does anyone else get really irritated when someone lingers for an unnecessarily long time in front of a supermarket fridge when they know full well you're waiting? You know exactly what you want, and just need to reach in and grab it, but some prick is taking his sweet time choosing ready-made pizza bases (they're all the flipping same!). Also, when you hold a door open or step aside to let someone past in a narrow space and they don't even give a nod or grunt of acknowledgement? Things like this get my goat.

In this scene, the director warned him that it was dangerous to go down the stairs like that and that he should just walk down, but he didn't listen.

It’s been 20 months since attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, PA, a state he desperately needed to win to stay out of prison. Many are now saying it misled voters & it helped him win. Corey Comperatore was killed by the bullet apparently intended for Trump. His sister is demanding answers from Trump, but he's ignoring her, refusing to discuss it, AND HE PERSONALLY SHUT DOWN THE INVESTIGATION!!! Why? Why wouldn't he play this up? Play the victim? Blame the deranged left? Blame Biden? Obama? That's his classic move, no? And Secret Service are not trained to allow a president under attack to stand and expose himself to a kill shot. Yet, these agents did just that, and were promoted - one was made the head of the entire agency! So, look again. Do you think it was staged? Y or N?

@SaftyInNumbers @mjfree @Shabanu3 The second he surfaced with DRIED “blood” on his ear I knew it was a hoax. A hairdresser once accidentally nicked my ear in that exact place and it bled profusely for ages. The words “Blood capsule” were out of my mouth before he even left the stage.

@merkin_about Yeah, I did TV and film reviews at one time, too, so just as qualified to speak. She is SO wrong. And the finale was brilliant.

Growing up on the edge of the Snowy Mountains in the 70s: footy in the dust, riding horses on the farm, and four boys keeping each other honest. It was a simpler time, but a way of life worth protecting. Every Australian kid deserves the chance to grow up with a bit of that same freedom and possibility.

@dieworkwear Anything that tells you to use more product than necessary. eg ads that show the full length of the toothbrush bristles covered in toothpaste. A quarter of that is enough. “Rinse and repeat” for shampoo - not necessary unless you have very long or very dirty hair.

@sophiegrenham Phones are part of it, but not the cause. I was at a large outdoor gathering recently and people were simply unaware of what was going on around them. Everyone self-absorbed, oblivious. I think the COVID virus addled people’s brains.

@bagshaw2112 In the ‘70s there were ironmongers. A man behind a counter who would weigh out nails and screws and wrap them in brown paper. Everything you could ever want, from watering cans to sieves to rope, which they cut to the required length. No walking 20,00 steps to do the shopping.

@sophiegrenham It was a reflex action, I didn’t even think about it. Most would have done the same a few years ago. These days people are so self-absorbed they are totally unaware of the world around them. And then they get behind the wheel 😬
