Popular Post Lacessit Posted December 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2023 Way back in 1983, I resolved to give up smoking. And did. In 2021, I decided to get fit. My resting pulse rate is now mid-fifties. In 2022, I resolved to lose weight. I went from 93 kg to 78 kg. I have backslid slightly, to 81 kg. In 2023, my NY resolution has been to stop drinking. I had a glass of red wine last February, nothing since. For 2024. I have decided to stop responding to posters who lack good manners. No return fire, they just go straight onto my ignore list, where they can rail fruitlessly. What is your New Year resolution, and how successful are you at sticking to them? Happy New Year. 1 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No return fire, they just go straight onto my ignore list I don't feel that we have enough warm bodies left still posting in this little internet backwater to ignore anyone. Also: after porn, laughing at idiots is why the internet was invented. I'm on a 30 day marijuana-fast. I'm hoping to dodge the increased clarity-bullet. Clarity -never exactly a pretty picture.

I ignore Facebook and Twitter completely, as I don't think they add anything to my life. As far as I am concerned, Facebook is for narcissists, and Twitter is for twits. IMO ASEAN resources such as Sheryl, Crossy and UbonJoe ( RIP ) add value. CharlieH adds a dose of common sense. The only thing pot does for me is affect my balance, and act as a sedative. I don't get any high from it at all, in either CBD or THC forms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of good interest groups on Facebook, you don't need to have friends or post your selfies to participate. I got heaps of great advice about cycling long distances, kayaking and sailing. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just create fake accounts and don't post or reveal anything. You can find useful, informative, amusing pages on both facebook and Twitter. I have several I follow daily and others I glance at when I have time. Some links I post here I first learned about from a guru on Twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think enough of my time is spent on ASEAN without adding other platforms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, be happy, and relax. If I want to drink, then I do that. If I want ice-cream, then I eat it. No stress, no restricting resolutions. But then, I never had any excessive tendencies, so I don't have to stop myself from doing this or that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then I filter out all junk mail coming from facebook and never see it. I have only one facebook "friend," an old neighborhood friend who recognizes my fake name. Twitter doesn't send out out junk mail, so that's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
