Pita chips

Cadbury's chocolate and not Hersheys. Hersheys is just waxy. Lindt is also really good, especially the truffles.

If there are no nuts in the Chocolate, I don't eat it.

Dark, Milk Chocolate and Nougat all the rest can disappear

Me too!

Homemade hard cider

Bite. Munch. Swallow.

I enjoy apples every way listed plus my favorite one that's not on the list is the old fashioned Candy apples Oh so yummy..

I use to love Christmas, would decorate, and go all out.
But sadly not anymore, I'm alone, got rid of all my decorations over the past 10 years (except my manger set which I set out on the shelf), no family near me, no one else around at all (one's I knew have either passed away or moved away). Don't//can't drive at night anymore, so don't even get to enjoy others lights and decor.
So it's become like any other day to me now.

I run a Sports & Social Club, it is open all year around, although only a few hours of Christmas day

What work do you do that doesn't allow you Christmas and New Years, if I'm not being to personal?

I love Christmas, it is always a special time. Sadly I work all through Christmas & New Year, so not as much fun as it could be for me

like this poll

What is unusual to some is usual to others.

Look at the parking lot. A good restaurant does not have an empty parking lot.

I've been boring (same dishes) but now I'm trying not to be.

"All of the above" makes no sense in this poll as several are contradictory

What other website do you play Halma on?

That would be Halma. I play it on two websites. I have a high percentage of wins. I held the top spot on the ladder here for almost 2 years. Then stepped down to climb it again.

Too many, and the favourites tend to shift around. The only fixed one is chess, and there are a lot of players here who prove I'm not as skilled as I think, lol

it is funny cribbage was not on the list....I would have picked that

Sports ... especially basketball.

In my city we have the Louvre (not my favourite) but someone just came and stole all the crown Jools

I voted ANY museum as it was most relevant.
I don't like ALL those listed, but do like many of them.

Not long before he passed away I was once asked if I were Jerry Garcia.

I must have been mistaken for someone several times. I always hear Donald, Duffy, Bugs, Roger

I have never been mistaken for someone else but I hear a lot of good looking actors are mistaken for me!!

I've seen my reflection in thr mirror and said, "Hi Mom"!

I do that all the time, thinking who is that old, haggered man?

I once looked into a mirror and mistook me for someone else.

I'm often mistaken fro some who gives a $#%@

I think that pretty much proves my point if you look at the symptoms

Zombies very much disagree with you.

Eating brains is believed to be a cause of prion diseases including CJD

A buddy eats it and loves it eek eek here growing up my parents would have us eat brains and pig feet and etc .left home and would never eat anything like that eeks.

I was forced to eat fried liver and onions, which was bad enough.🤮 Can’t imagine eating brains from a can or anywhere!

lol no brains either

Just the brains?

My Momma loves brains and eggs. She just empties the can in the eggs and scrambles them. She made me eat some when I was a kid and I don’t eat eggs anymore lol

a quick google reveals;
Scrambled eggs with pork brains is a traditional breakfast dish, sometimes called "eggs 'n' brains," that combines scrambled eggs with cooked pork brains. The brains are typically prepared separately by poaching, browning, and seasoning, before being mixed with the scrambled eggs. Historically popular in some regions like the Southern United States and Austria

I realize I don't know every ethnic cuisine out there, but what is the origin of this one? Or is it just made up?

Yes, I agree. Multiple ways I love eggs

Jools

I totally agree 😂

Egg fried rice or in a cake is about the only way I'll eat egg.

Scrambled with pork brains sounds absolutely disgusting

Same

chorizo and eggs....scrambled..... the soy chorizo is pretty good

Omelet

I like all of these also.

More than one way. Depends on what I feel like.

Mornings are always rushed so I look for the simplest fastest possible. I poach mine in the microwave. It's a technique that you have to learn. Heat a cup of water in the microwave first, then add the egg and heat for another 30 seconds.

Over Medium
Deviled eggs.
Scrambled with sausage & hash browns

I only like mine over medium.

I like most of those except those with pork brains or pickled.
Huevos Rancheros is another good way to cook eggs.
German Fries and shirred eggs are other options too.
Egg custard is also a yummy use of eggs.

Here 2

I do like my steak cooked but I like it mostly rare. So, medium rare is about right.

I enjoy a very rare steak. Also enjoy the Middle Eastern Steak Tartare made with spices and Bulgur, Chopped parsley and chopped green onions.

Sounds like fun, drinking my Burgundy while in my Burgundy dress! Yep, sounds good!

And it tastes good, too!

I agree. Burgundy is a rich and soothing color,

Good choice.

My favorite color is burgundy

I concur with Jools The best color for a Roma tomato is red but that is not the best color for you eye.

Ceno ergo coco.

I am into dark purple these days, or royal purple which is the same. It's the new black

LoL I wish! I do Door Dash these days 😂

I love black goes with everything

I think "best colour for what"? needs asking too

Agree

I think it depends a lot of the shade of the color...

Thought it was you cinnamon🤓😹

Who voted professional chef?
Party at your house! Hee hee

Surely it should be "Scottie" dog aka Scottish, Cairn and (West) Highland terriers

Scottish dog

I remember I picked an early version like this at a jumble sale as a kid (that's where most of my board games came from)
It had wooden houses and was from the the 1940s, wish I still had it
https://i.etsystatic.com/11093826/r/il/8d974a/5978271632/il_570xN.5978271632_8gi3.jpg

That is awesome! That's a valuable game!

There was a rocking horse in my mother's old set. It was one of the ones from just after WWII with card standees and a paper dial instead of dice.

That was my guess🙂

Thanks for ther the link.
It must be a country specific thing, as in 50 odd years of various sets I've never seen a horse or the howitzer in UK sets. I think the battleship disappeared quite early on those sets too although I remember an 70/80s set that had a sports car and luxury boat

According to this web site, the horse and rider were used from 1940-2007. Nice history of the pieces here:
https://www.monopolyland.com/monopoly-pieces/

Me either, but with all the variations that they have produced, I'm sure there is one.

ETA: There is even one that is a T Rex!

Chose utilities paid as you have to pay taxes on property...

We really shouldn't be too greedy..

sounds good, but can't we do it daily?

BTW I don't remember ever seeing a horse as playing piece in monoply

I totally agree with you @laura lee, with being able to pass go and collect $250.00 a few times a month.. Sure can use that extra moola.. LOLOL

YES! You can pass go. Then go for park place and boardwalk and take it away!!

I could use a couple of hotels (not listed). That way I would have money coming in, a place to live and property. 3 in 1.

Can I pass Go a couple times in a month??? (would sure help with food and utilities)
Car (mine is almost 24 years old now and due to health its harder to get in and out of, I need a small SUV that I could sit and stand right up instead of "down" into and pulling myself up to get out of).

MONEY!!!

Stay in Paris Rabbitoid! Here in Chicago we had a 50 degree temp. drop! Now instead of 3 digit temp. heat I have to be careful not to slip onto ICE! Oh well, I still have free parking! Stay safe!

Free parking? keep the houses and the property. I live in Paris, where do I sign?

i like snoopy,charlie brown
felt sorry for charlie brown

"They're all Blockheads"? I resemble that remark...

So then it would be real estate taxes.
I speak from experience. As Ginny B says
we must keep the roof over our heads first
or all else follows.

Preferably 68 year round

Whenever the levothyroxine fails.

Surely, the thermostat setting depends primarily upon temperature; I remember growing up in Illinois/Wisconsin, and it snowing on Halloween. In north Texas, October is normally the month when the thermostat can be turned off.

In north Texas, our A/C generally runs from Jun through Sep; heating runs in Nov through Apr. Usually, May and October are months that don't need anything.

In the summer, some people turn the A/C down at bedtime; we turn on fans and move the setting up a few degrees. Likewise, we turn down the heat at bedtime.

What thermostat, I heat with a woodstove. If I add more wood the temperature goes up, if I don't the temperature goes down.

I am so sorry

So very sorry Sir.

My only daughter, she was 55 when she died on January 14th of this year from a brain tumor.

Thank you fatdaddy

Clean air.
GoldiLocks

pets

Same, more then one. Life has changed so much for me over the past few years. (lost a lot on that list)

Sadly, more than one. I am blessed though to be alive and just had a birthday 🙏❤️

Mortgage of course.

mortage and main fee

Electric and water

Me too!

Me too!

Sound logic, however, some people have paid off their mortgage.

The social security pays its part of my retirement on the 1st of each month,just soon enough to cover the visa cards of the previous month. The complementary private retirement pays its part around the 10th.

It has to be Rent/mortgage, because without the roof over our head, the rest will always follow..

Being able to set your bills up, as I do too, so that they pay near the due date automatically removes the "first" element from my bill paying as well.

It's always my phone.

I suppose that depends where you look

animal

noun

1. any member of the kingdom Animalia, comprising multicellular organisms that have a well-defined shape and usually limited growth, can move voluntarily, actively acquire food and digest it internally, and have sensory and nervous systems that allow them to respond rapidly to stimuli: some classification schemes also include protozoa and certain other single-celled eukaryotes that have motility and animallike nutritional modes.
2. any such living thing other than a human being.
3. a mammal, as opposed to a fish, bird, etc.

Being on social security all my bills are paid the same day. That way I know what is left (or not left) the rest of the month for food, gas, cat food, etc.

animal | ˈanəm(ə)l |
noun
Animal: • a mammal, as opposed to a bird, reptile, fish, or insect.

They are mostly set up for automatic payment from the bank, many on the same day. So no idea which is actually "first"

I'll bet lots of these would prefer to avoid human contact. I concur with bookfox too except if you're in proximity with the animal and their offspring, if the predator is hungry or if the animal is rabid.

Most of these animals would run away from you before you even knew they were near you.

European badger can be aggresive, but tend to keep themselves to themself and are rarely seen during the day

It all depends on which part of Canada you're in as to what kinds of wildlife you could run into.

I've crossed paths with a fox and skunks while out and about. Saw a coyote from my parents' kitchen window.
I would most hate to cross paths with the cats, bear, boar, wolf and hyena. I don't know how aggressive badgers, ostriches, roos and porcupines are upon being approached.

The name Scorpio666 made me think of a question: Why, whenever a poll asks to choose among a variety of animals, all or almost all the choices are mammals? Here we have only one intruder, the ostrich.

For this poll, for example you could add snakes or other reptiles, scorpions (), any number of insects who always pick me, spiders...

I've seen quite a few of these already while hiking in my younger years in Kananaskis Country. None of the African ones though Ran into a black bear once, thought it was my friends Newfoundlander, kept calling him Jesse and he kept running away!

I'd love to "see" any, but not sure I'd want to "meet" most.
The only ones I've been likely to see in UK and often have are fox & badger, but now I'm in Canada I'm probably more likely to see more

We've only got one wall clock, which is analogue.
Most of the other things that show the time are digital

My wrist watch is analog. Of course. I was born at a time where analog and digital weren't even a concept. We have a score of digital clocks now on every appliance, needed or not. And you have to reset them all twice a year for daylight saving. Yay...

The long-case (grandfather) clock is, of course analog. Wrist watches are digital, as are clocks in the cars, and clocks on the nightstands (alarm clocks). Clocks in office, craft area, bathrooms are analog.

Well, Chad, Taylor, and Badger are 3 of them.

I think only bobby b 71 does that

So who are these first thousand players?

That's a Funny page. I didn't know we spoke Goldtokeneze 🤣

Been a paying member for 24 years. What else could I do?

laura lee with the answer I was looking for!

GoldTokenaire - A member of GoldToken


Found @
https://www.goldtoken.com/games/info?infoid=63

GoldenYears maybe lol

What is a dedicated goldtoken player? I have been playing goldtoken everyday since 2006. Isn't that dedicated?

Goldfingers

GoldTokeners

But are you a dedicated gold token player?

There is no correct answer, we are all goldtoken players

I watch the movie long time ago!

That is hard to pick just one.

I also have a dog. An IRISH terrier named BIG BOY! Just the other night my other 1/2 Cindy carelessly left the kitchen SCREEN door open! In looked two battery lights. It was a cat! Big Boy chased the cat out which landed in our little pool! Big Boy just came back in.He figured the cat had been soaked enough!

As a novel I vote for Michael Strogoff: The Courier of the Czar, which is far better than his more familiar works.

I don't remember how long it last because its not important to remember only to buy more before it runs out! lol

My problem with Brosnan & Moore- I don't want a James Bond that I could beat up

I use an improvised bidet of sorts. Sitting over the edge of the bathtub I use my hand held shower head.

It lasts until it runs out

And so many countries use baudets that they don't even use toilet paper

Well, it depends how often the cat finds the door open.
That's one of the reasons I don't have a cat, never mind how often they make me laugh.

An amusing poll option would have been, "It's none of your business"

I'm sure I could find something to occupy my time if GT were down for 24 hours.
I doubt if I would enjoy being trapped at GT for 24 hours.

daft question

NO contest. Easy answer.

I'm glad that they left him. That was my favorite one lol

If you have ever read Ian Fleming's James Bond books, you will see that he portrays James Bond as a real spy -- he mixes it up, fights the bad guys, and gets dirty.

I'm sure the women like the clean, suave, tuxedo dressed image. When I first saw Craig playing Bond, I thought "This is refreshingly different". He got dirty. He got cuts. He really sacrificed himself for the good of England.

I enjoyed ALL the Daniel Craig movies.

When I submitted the list to Pollmaster I deliberately left Niven out as his film was just a sendup very loosely based on the book...however..Pollmaster took it upon himself to include it..by the time I corrected him it was too late..it had been posted..

Let me be clear. The James Bond franchise of movies has NEVER included David Niven as 007 in the official list of James Bond actors...and quite frankly, it's an embarrassment to have even included him on this list. Thankfully, nobody chose him as their favourite.

Rabbitoid, you ARE the James Bond of Gold Token! Have a GREAT Day!

Actors grow old. How can James Bond grow old?

Can I play the next James bond man next? LOL Why is there so many james bond actors?

David Niven was in Casino Royale in 1967 with Peter Sellers and Woody Allen. It was a spoof based roughly on the book.

David Niven has never been 007!!

Connery was one of my favourite actors, not just for Bond but many other films

Or so she claims. Connery had a strange view of wife battery but never admitted to the abuse. Personally I think he was fairly straightforward and if he had actually hit her he would've said so. They divorced in 1971. He died in 2020.

You spelled Pierce Brosnan's name correctly. I've been a fan of his since 1982, so of course, he is my favorite Bond. I liked Roger Moore's humor & Daniel Craig was impressive. I dislike Sean Connery because he beat his wife in real life.

I chose Sir Sean Connery. But, I wanted to add that a very close 2nd was Pierce Brosnan. ( I may have spelled that wrong. ) They are both my favourites.

Zip lining is way tamer than a roller coaster IMHO.

I’d probably pass out or get sick lol I can’t even handle a roller coaster

done it often, all over the world, some great views, Fremont St in Vegas gave the0 best feel of speead

I'd probably do it despite my age but like a number of things, both my height and weight are against. I'm as big as a lot of NFL linemen and they always have these 225lb weight limits that get in the way.

I'm 78 and if I have the opportunity I would do it.

I'll try next time I'm young. Promise.

yep, especially the dogs laugh

The stories were rather predictable, but I loved Mutley

No idea what they are, but now that I'm asked I'll make it my life's mission to find out.

I was never a fan of "Wacky Races". I didn't care for the art, the stories nor the characters. Furthermore at the age of 12 I was "outgrowing" cartoons.

eggs

A carton of yogurt

An onion bagel smeared with onion and chive cream cheese. With coffee.
Mmmmmmmm! Now that's a breakfast.

I often eat toast, but that's square

😂😂

Do my pills count? most are round.

The poll should also offer more than 1item.

The poll should have included waffles; there are several round things that we do eat - perhaps the poll is asking what first comes to mind?

Stevie Ray Vaughn

Michael Jackson

Niccolò Paganini playing his concertos.

I vote for Jim Reeves

I would of liked to see Rick Nelson on the list. He is my vote.

I voted for Johnny cash lol whatever a hologram is lol let's see president Donald Trump dancing with president Putin in their talks. :dancing:

Django Reinhardt

Lou Reed would get my vote, definitely.

Judy Garland

Was surprised George Michael wasn't on the list.

Merle Haggard, I still listen to all his songs.

So at least your dog stays in shape

As a lifelong diabetic, I have always strived to eat healthy. My diet is good, but I don’t exercise as much as I should.

My dog takes me for a 3 to 4 mile walk every day, and then there’s canoeing, kayaking, and running in the summer, and snowshoeing, skiing, and strength training in the winter.

Walking is my exercise of choice. It's easy on the joints and the scenery can be wonderful depending on where I walk.

As they say, round is a shape.

I exercise twice a week and I go bowling at least four times a week

Jools the other polls came from the pollmaster

We only had two poll suggestions for July, one of the entries will win one of our nice tokens! Please send in your suggestions with several answers and if we use your poll you might win one too!

What about the others?

The action was sweet indeed! I barely had to touch the strings (D'Addario Half-Round ENR70) to connect to the frets.

I'd happily lend you my glasses to help with the search...

Sweet! I've always wanted a Rickenbacker guitar.

I lost my perfect memory years ago, still looking for where I put it

Yes! I have 5 and My SG is my baby.

Amazing those who have perfect memory! LOL

Eyeglasses, I need them to see them.

I have to search fir everything since I have adhd and one time lost truck keys for 8 months until someone found the between the seat 💺 lol

I should buy stock in Apple, I have been putting iTags on everything. The "Find My" app is a godsend for me! I use my Apple Watch to ping my iPhone when I can't find it.

Once I find my iPhone, then I can use the Find Me app to ping the other items I can not find.

My marbles, not many left

Shopping list

I'm always losing track of time, seems the older I get, the faster it goes.

A six record album of Enrico Caruso . . . fantastic!

BTW the price was $398 including the hardshell case.
I bought it at Music Manor in Maple Heights, Oh.

Vintage 61 red Gibson sg going for 1999.99 online

1978 Jetglo Rickenbacker 4001

Wow, what a sweet geetar..Red guitar and a Gibson? Sweet.
Got a picture of it?

That's a nice guitar for a first one. Do you still have it?

My First guitar, a 1969 red Gibson SG.

I always ask for paper bags.

I don't set reminders on my phone but I do use my calendar on my phone.

I use more than one.

I have a diary

I tend to use a few of the reminders just because it's easier for me...

It's sad .

You seen prices of new batteries now of days? Yes cheaper than a car but prices are sky rocketing

I really like the idea of hybrid cars -- why should the engine idle when one is stopped or going at low speed? Such a great idea.

I do like the idea of being able to fuel up less often.

A friend has a dual hybrid/electric car; in my mind, the best of both worlds - most of his driving is relatively close, so he can use the electric motor for about 80% of his driving. This means that a tank of gas lasts him over 2,000 miles.

An co-worker once sneeringly pointed out that in hybrid or dual hybrid/electric cars, the extra cost is not covered by the savings in gasoline. But I'm still in awe of my friend only needing to get gasoline so infrequently.

I wouldn't like an electric car; certainly not for distance travel: you'd run out of power, and then be trapped at the recharge station for hours waiting for a recharge. At least with gasoline engines, you can be on your way in a few minutes.

A new battery is still cheaper than buying a new car

I'll bet you didn't have a Toyota.

"Toyota provides a hybrid battery warranty lasting 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first, beginning on the date of first use. This warranty shows Toyota’s confidence in their hybrid batteries, increasing from the earlier 8-year/100,000-mile coverage, effective for the model year 2020.

Replacement costs for a Toyota hybrid battery can vary significantly. On average, a new hybrid battery may range from $2,000 to $4,000, depending on the model and dealership pricing."

We have had 2 Prius's, and 2 Camry hybrids and now have a Honda SUV hybrid. My brother has had 2 Prius's. My son has a hybrid. My daughter has had 2 Prius's. No problems with any of them, except for daughter's first Prius. It was 7 years old when battery went bad. Toyota replaced it @ NO COST!

I had one years ago, good gas mileage, the only problem is the battery.
It is very expensive to replace. All the money I saved on gas went out the window to replace the battery. It's not worth it!!
Ps:: The battery lasted less than 5 years.
I believe the battery costs $5000 to replace.

Yes a spoiled rotten child

YES!! PRESIDENT!!

Some parents act worse than children at sports games!

Because if you ever have officiated any games, you've seen it for sure.

Excellent reply and valid for several countries, mine very much included.

yep me too, debate, debate , debate

President

Nice site.
I stay cool with a combination of a.c., fans, ice water, cool baths etc

Good way to put it, EZZ9 !!

Open https://www.ventusky.com/ and search for the hottest spot on the planet, then grin in glee.
Air con helps too.

Fashion is following what some is doing.
Style is you doing what you like.

Well, halter tops are a close second at worst....

Those are big bells!

I was going to say braless like all the hippy girls in the '60's

Yes. Just think of how much lucre I could have garnered between now and 1974.

I don't recognise some of the items listed, but can't say I kiss any of those listed

So it's you we have to thank for the mode of the jeans with a torn knee, lol. Well played! But you should have patented it. Too late now

I was a big fan of the bell bottoms. Never had a pair with that big of a bell though.

I once owned a pair of elephant bell hip huggers. They had a 30 inch waist and 40 inch bells. I tripped crossing the street in them and tore a hole in one of the knees the first day I wore them. They were grey corduroy with a blue denim knee patch. I added two 6 inch blue denim triangles to each leg to make them 50 inch bells (two 1/2 inch seams on each triangle).

Mindreader!

All the guys probably said mini skirts 😂
Just go to Vegas or New Orleans. Tons of them, especially at night. 😆

My mom kept what she called bellbottomed hip huggers for years. They were kind of cute.

Smoked paprika. It is wonderful on anything, eggs, meat, cheese

Sea salt.

I know it's too late, but there were too many spices to choose from, so if I had another chance to vote, I'd vote "other". Carry On.....

You aren't reserrected to a regular physical body are you?

I'd say no. Resurrected would mean you come back again as yourself. Generally, reincarnation means you come back again as something, with your spirit/soul inside it, but not necessarily aware it's you. At least that is how I understand it.

Is reserection the same reincarnated?

Disliking summer and being allergic to the sun I would want to be a polar bear.....hibernate during the summer and coming out in the autumn

We had two outdoor cats who lived 18 & 16 years.
Perhaps UK is more suited to them
Chasing wildlife is one of fun things

Indoor cats live twice as long ... as do the neighborhood birds!

You have your reincarnation and I'll have mine

Cars to run over me, dogs to chase me, fleas and ticks to get on me, and coyotes to eat me, sure doesn't sound like fun. Think I will take my safe house.

no I'm not saying trashing the house isn't fun, but there is a whole wide world of fun outside too

You're kidding? You have probably never climbed up a curtain to test your claws just to extract funny noises from your hooman. Fun!!

I wouldn't want to be an indoor cat, that's no fun

Does it have to be an animal? How 'bout some positively ionized dark matter gas.

I couldn’t pick a cow. Might end up on somebody’s dinner table.

Yes as long as they live inside

Cat, they seem to have a perfect life

Definitely not a rabbit. I have given already.

It does say which animal. I believe a human is an animal. My choice would be:

  1.  A Buddha
  2.  A Bodhisattva (almost a Buddha)
  3.  A more enlightened human being than I already am.

It would be exciting to be a dolphin

I have often mentioned that I would like to come back as an eagle. I know bird is one of the selections, but the eagle is not JUST a bird to me.

I think I might want to be a sasquatch...

That sounds like my morning routine.

I especially like the early morning when I’m drinking hot coffee and planning my day. I have two cups of coffee before breakfast. It’s especially nice after a good sleep.

Yeah, from what I've seen. There is no doubt the dog is the master.

If it was about cats, they are definitely in charge anyway

I personally think that almost all of them would make anyone wonder who's in charge..

Thanks. Yes I am twice (that I know).
Sounds like your disability must have involved medical equipment as well. This should make for some world class in game co-commiseration.

My Birthday and Father's Day fall on the same day. June 17th

Sorry Jim...you a father? Happy father's day if you are. I'm not a father Invite me to a game if you want to? I feel your frustration and pain.
Brett

Bummer for you, indeed. Glad you are keeping your sense of humor!

this has yet to happen.
I have been sporting a Foley catheter since 15 April. It iS uncomfortable, sometimes painful and difficult to deal with. I am currently undergoing my fourth bacteriostatic therapy.
A surgery to remove a bladder diverticulum (which is about 85% the size of the bladder) will occur next month. Concurrently my prostate will be lased (to control BPH).
I can't imagine having to use this &%#%^& device after these procedures. This year's spark of joy for me will be freedom from a 👹 hideous plastic hose in a personal place.

I retired!

I got up an extra level in my officiating in the state playoffs. That was nice.

Yes...but she said something like "...she'd only gone in to buy ciggies"

She wasn't buying groceries

Didn't Tesco have to ban people somewhere as it got so bad?

Another question could have been: How often do you go shopping in them?

Part of me admires such individuals for their relaxed way of living that says "I don't care what people think", while another part thinks it is a symptom of civilisational decay

I wear shorts/men underwear mainly easy to change them. Just put on t-shirt to walk around the house or mow the lawn in them 😀

I find it odd that American English has changed the spelling when it's a loan word from Indian

I wear pyjamas every night. When sick with the flu or some ailment that keeps me in bed, I’ll wear my pyjamas for a few days until I’m feeling better.

I don't usually wear them.
But I suppose the longest time would have been a week in hospital, although I can't remember exactly how many days

I was competitive with my brothers. Hated sharing my friends. Hate is a strong word/feeling, but as a child, that’s how I felt. Fist fights were regular occurrences in our household. Boys will be boys.

It was personal space I hated sharing as a kid, and I still do!
