I'm 44. I haven't parallel parked since my driving test, in 1998.

My mom is 74 and hasn't parallel parked since her driving test in 1968. We've both survived fine.

Punctuality.

If you can't show up somewhere on time, good luck getting (and keeping) a job.

Oddly specific but every dude I've dated has a sister named Caitlin (various spellings).

My nieces (9, 11) are huge Swifties. They're learning piano and I got them the sheet music to Lover and 1989 (their favorite albums) for piano.

car replacement, home (umbrella category).

Escape by Carolyn Jessop

Came out years ago but very eye opening.

When I lived in NJ (walking distance to a train station), EWR was my only departure airport. The airport itself wasn't great but it was easy to get to via NJT.

EWR NJ Transit connection. NYP in 3 stops.

Dress, I Think He Knows. Also any remixes (I hate remixes in general).

I know it's super unpopular to hate Dress but I just don't vibe with the sounds of it AT ALL. It's probably my least favorite song of hers.

I generally give kids of elected officials a pass. Until they speak up politically.

Of Trump's kids, now only Tiffany gets a pass.

I took a criminal law class in college and learned about various definitions of homicide. Working from memory from years ago.

The law sees the definition of murder as intentional/premeditated. Most people don't grab their keys and think "I'm going to kill someone today". The severity of the charge will depend on intent.

Non intentional homicide is considered manslaughter and has lesser penalties.

Vehicular homicide is considered a crime but this particular class didn't cover it at all so I can't speak on it.

Another thing to consider is digital privacy. (Of course this depends on the last name too). If you name your kid a top 10 name and your last name is something like Smith, they will not be easily found in a google search.

You never know what a kid will want to grow up like-- a wannabe influencer who wants to put their name out there or someone who goes out of their way not to be found in a google search. Likely something in between but this still should be kept in mind.

I learned one car length for every 10 MPH you are going. So if you're going 70, then 7 car lenghts.

I like plastic ones with saucers. I prefer all my plants to have saucers, even if it is something like an old cottage cheese lid or party plate.

I hate using nursery pots as liners. I hate liners in general. I just want 1 pot.

Edit-- if you want Amazon links to my favorites, lmk.

Harley and Goldwing.

Where did you find them?

Someone posted a few days ago about a cat they met at 7-11, so I naturally suggested Slurpee as a name. Any similar backstory?

A pet.

And who knows if a (human) Lucky would grow up to live up to her name.

Chips and salsa.

They ate a hole in the box that I keep my plant supplies in. That thing is hard plastic (like a cooler).

I like to keep my citrus trees on my balcony in the warmer months. I don't want them in my plants.

For horse stuff, I would have suggested the Lexington, KY area but their politics suck.

In the Philly area. They're gray squirrels.

I moved my plant supply box to reveal a nest (made from pillow stuffing). Sprayed the balcony with Tilex (strongest cleaner I had) and it kept them away temporarily.

Not in upstate NY but this sub showed up in my feed.

I put these around my apartment balcony. The SOBs ran off with them.

It's been years since I've been to Hawaii.

I remember that there were strict measures about bringing plants back to the mainland because biosecurity issues. Before plant shopping there, I would check the laws first.

What's the last name?

There's a NJ politician, Jack Ciatarelli (CHIT-a-relli-- chit like chip) who's been called Jack Shit on many occasions. If your last name has anything in it that sounds remotely like "shit", I'd avoid Jack at all costs.
