    your child telling you they love you

    did you get any wonderful surprises today
  • HesCalledDyerHesCalledDyer Posts: 16,427
    Not today, but I got two unexpected refund checks in the mail yesterday.

    Have you ever actually received a check/prepaid card from a mail-in rebate... or do you believe it's just a marketing ploy to get people to buy shit?

    I've never not got one that I sent in for.

    What really confused me was the time Best Buy sent me a $25 gift card for no apparent reason. I had bought a new phone or something and a couple weeks later got a $25 "thank you" gift card unexpectedly.

    Have you ever written to complain about a product or service to a retailer?

    Yes, my mom had gotten me a kitchen utensil with a "lifetime guarantee" and it broke. Within a week. I emailed, got a new one, and the replacement broke within a week as well.

    Have you ever avoided a store because of bad customer service experiences?

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I don't do Yelp or any of those services, but I have been known to craft an email for crap service or crap product.

    Are you crafty?

    Yes. I make a lot of things with beads and I sew and I paint...I think it's safe to say I'm crafty. :blush:

  • jnimhaoileoinjnimhaoileoin Posts: 2,682
    Yes, unfortunately it's hard to go far back in Ireland as a lot of our records were destroyed during the War of Independence and Civil War

    Have you done yours and how far back did you get?
  • oftenreadingoftenreading Posts: 12,844
    I have personally not but relatives on both my maternal and paternal sides have and on the maternal side we have information on more than 200 years.

    Were your parents immigrants to the country you were born in?

  • justamjustam Posts: 21,408
    No. My mom's family has been in the US for hundreds of years, my dad's parents came from Mexico. I really hated what Donald Trump said recently. It made me angry!

    How do you feel about immigration?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • oftenreadingoftenreading Posts: 12,844
    Well, definitely not what Trump believes, but then again that would apply to almost any topic.

    Do you have a passport?

    That's a tough one and depends on my mood for sure, but to get my money's worth, I guess I'll say "Thick as a Brick" by Jethro Tull.

    Do you like that tune, or do you really not mind if you sit that one out?
    I SAW PEARL JAM
  • HesCalledDyerHesCalledDyer Posts: 16,427
    Love me some Tull!
