    People that don't understand that slang can backfire, as people that don't speak english may have no clue what they mean.

    I hate mice.
    Little bastards get into everything.
    Nothing is safe and how they get in is beyond me.
    And evidently, they know we no longer have a cat.

    Right?
    We have been trying not to get another cat. But I am thinking we may have no choice.

    @0patience
    Do you live in town, Tony, or in a rural area? When I lived in a rural area in Washington State I inherited a flock of feral cats from the previous owner of the home.

    Those cats were a godsend. Not only did they keep the mice under control, but they frequently left little gifts on our front porch. An occasional dead bird, numerous squirrel tails, etc. I think they were thanking us for the food we left out for them.

    We live in a town of 4,000.
    So in-town is still mostly out of town.
    Warrenton is pretty much a rural town.
    Elk eat my blueberries, black tail deer eat my cherry trees, racoons and possums (we have possums, not opossums) eat anything they can find, the birds try and build nests in the eaves, where ever the bats don't try and get in, the mice and rats get into buildings.
    I welcome when the bobcats and cougar come around, cause everything else clears out, except the beavers and nutria that build their homes in the drainage ditch near the house. Luckily, the skunk, civet cats stay away from here and porcupines are only across the river in Washington.

    So yeah, we're kind of in the country.

    Well, there ya go, then. A couple cats could help.... at least until some cougar or coyote comes around and tracks ‘em down. 🤓🤣

    I've trapped 15 mice, 4 voles, and 2 weasels in my rodent hotels outbuildings this fall. Just a slightly strange hobby. Seems like I've got most of them for now.

    I hate the city fools who come out here to where I live to murder animals. I have nothing against legitimate hunting, do a little myself from time to time, but this is ridiculous.

    I just took the dog for a walk, in the ditch less than a quarter-mile from my front door some ash-holes have dumped the carcasses of a young doe and her two fawns. They took the hind-quarters. The two fawns couldn't have stood 2 foot at the shoulders.

    ASH-HOLES!!!

    Ah, but whoever did that was probably “entitled” ..... there’s a lot of that going around, lately... 🙄

    Disagree all you want. I still hate being stuck behind jacked up trucks blowing crap on my windshield while they go side by side as slow as they can idle.

    I didn't see any, but they never accelerated enough to actually blow any fumes.

    For the record, I've been in vegas during the blizzard of 2010 where we had an eighth of an inch of accumulated snowfall. It was pandemonium all morning, literally.

    1/8" isn't even considered a dusting around here. More like frost or dew. It isn't even snow until it's plowable.

    I thought driving around Charlotte in the snow or ice was bad but the Winston Salem area is far worse. Just being on the road around those idiots is putting your life into someone else’s hands. They throw out all rules to the road, individual lanes, traffic lights, and stops signs have no meaning

    My son is stationed at Fort Bragg and we got 2 inches of snow and they closed the Fort to all non essential personnel. I was giving him some heat about it and he said that in two inches of snow, it's like bumper cars!

    I hate when a player celebrates a first down when there’s 3 minutes left in the game and they’re down by 42 points....

    Even worse is a defensive player on the side that's given up the 42 points celebrating making a tackle. One announcer commented during a blowout once "Let him celebrate, that's the first one they've made today."

    It snowed in Tampa back in the late 70's maybe an 1/8, was as much fun as watching Phoenix drivers deal with 1/2 inch of rain.

    For those that missed it, we regularly get feet. I live 1500 feet above town, right at the entry to the basin. At least a third of the year I get snow overnight. It’s the clowns that moved to this area and can’t drive in it that irritate me.
