ship Report

While some might argue that memes have gotten “weirder” over the years, if you take a trip back in time and go through the internet of the '90s and early 2000s, you’ll find that things were already a tad strange, unusual, and niche. Dancing animals, the often incomprehensible-to-outsiders rage comics, and inside jokes on top of inside jokes. 

The truth is, the speed and ease of use the internet brings allows basically every community with a common language (or even concepts) to create and share memes among itself. This is why every demographic, fandom, and profession has a meme page just for it.

Absolutely. And it doesn't even have to be a New Year's resolution. I have set myself challenges that every month I have to watch one documentary. Or how many different genres of movies I can watch in a year. Different music styles, food culture of different countries, etc. A month when I dedicate myself to the history of art, architecture... The possibilities are endless and at the same time you learn something new.

My March quest was to apply to a pottery course I want to do. Just put the application in yesterday, and hoping to hear back soon. I've accepted a side quest of "Bake a Carrot Cake" I need to buy the walnuts today. Reward is 1 Carrot Cake.

I like to make really small changes. For example, many years ago I promised never to throw chewing gum on the floor again and dispose of it properly. Another was when I was working with a woman who was training to become a vicar and I suddenly became aware of how much I said "oh my god" so changed god to gosh. These are little improvements which have really stuck.

My new year's resolution this year was to take better care of myself this year. Nothing specific, just looking after me.

Of course! Three years ago I wrote a book, two years ago I jumped out of a plane and last year I started doing open mic night stand up comedy. Do the fun ones. Always do the fun ones.

For the record, it was skydiving. I didn't just jump out of a commercial plane on the way to Arizona.

Two years ago my new year's resolution was to be better at using the correct name for each of our kids. We say the wrong names so often. Lol. But it helped, actually! I still say the wrong names quite a bit.... but it's not a big bit anymore. Lol.

Every since we went on our first cruise I made up a challenge that every day we all had to try something new. It could be eating a new food or doing something new. They are adults with their own families now and we still do this with us and the grandson's. My son was five on his first cruise and decided at dinner one night that escargot would be his thing for the night. He ended up eating four orders and looks forward to them every since.

I make the same resolution every year: to not make new years resolutions! That said, fun ones are a little easier to keep up with than the boring ones like "lose weight" ;)

Great idea. It doesn't have to be about losing weight or cleaning out the closets.

What role? To prevent her goddaughter finding her true love, even if it happens to be an ogre.

I am sorry but I seriously can't wrap my head around the fact that people can't built the IKEA furniture... It is so so easy with step by step instructions, pictures.... How can someone fail at this.. (no need to answer. I seriously lack the imagination of not understanding too put part A to Part A....)

I pick up accents quite fast, my English accent is from watching Morse about a hundred times, my french accent is that of a Marseillan dock workers as I spent a year working in a shipyard at Marseille at 18. I did get a slight Irish accent at one point when I was dating a Irish man, but a few episodes of Morse made it go away again.

As a parent of an adult who is neurodivergent, I always wondered if organizations ever consulted with people who were neurodivergent on doing this if it would affect them in any negative way like it did this one individual. My daughter used to always ask me if we could please turn off the porch lights for the people who put blue bulbs in.

My son has speech and language issues and can barely have a conversation. He did teach himself to count to 100 in Japanese though. Which was a nice surprise
