Should you for some reason have to vacate your home extremely quickly (say within 5 minutes) and you could grab ONLY 4 items prior to leaving, what would you grab?

Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?

"Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned" Buddha
Or a Christian perspective?
"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good"
This is a highly complex thing and I think it means rising above, not retaliating, and being the bigger person.
I'm only human and I may fail to do this but I do hold it up as my ideal.

Imagine you lived in a world where everyone has a shield/crest to represent and identify them. What three symbols would you have on yours? (You can add a colour scheme should you wish!)

Them keys are quite good as well

Hey guys and squad! :) For you: What make you feel genuinely happy? -Stay classy awesome peeps-

Doing some genuinely useful & contructive work, a feeling I certainly don't get in my day job.
The best example of this was my planting trees in the Highlands of Scotland. It was hard work, so hard that most people at home had no idea why I did it, but so rewarding.
www.treesforlife.org.uk
The first group of people to do such work came in 1991 and planted these trees, a picture of which I enclose. And they had to fence the trees of to stop them being grazed to death by deer. It could have been dispiriting to see a bare, treeless hillside, but when I felt down I could just look at how well these trees grew and think my own efforts would lead to this one day.
That, and the people, all of whom had chosen to be there, were an excellent crowd and I'm definitely going back.

I’ve slowly been clearing out, and here and there have stumbled across various unopened packs of shower gel presumably from Xmases passim. They’re now piled in the bathroom and will save us buying any for some time. So, my question: currently, what do you have too much of?

CactusDoug’s Profile PhotoDoug
Well you could say I have too many books, though a more plausible explanation is too much work leasing to lack of time to read them!

Do you think there is ever a good enough reason to justify cheating?

Syphira’s Profile PhotoSaphira
Certainly not, if you're having problems you should state your position and leave the relationship as a last resort, if necessary.
And if you're interested in swinging you should also state that and only have partners who know & accept this.

do you ever feel like you want more attention from friends or families or even strangers? What kind of attention do you crave most if so?

shehitsback’s Profile PhotoAllison
As a rule I feel I have too much interaction with, for instance, my work colleagues, with whom I wouldn't ideally be spending so much time, so I don't really want more.
I would like to be able to spend more time with my friends and my girlfriend but after a day/week at work I'm often not up to it. So a kind of loneliness comes from being surrounded by people, but not the people I'd have chosen for myself, and not seeing my people often enough.
But mostly, during me time, I'm so relieved to be away from everybody that bothers me that I don't have the thoughts you discuss here.

How do you treat/deal with the following types of unsolicited visitors to your home? 1. Trick-or-Treaters? 2. Salespeople? 3. Religious evangelists? 4. Christmas Carol Singers? 5. A stranger needing to use your ‘phone?

At peak periods I just don't answer the door!

I'm going through a drinking phase. what's your best bar story? If you don't have one, make one up.

shehitsback’s Profile PhotoAllison
Well my brother usn't exactly renowned for his humility & modesty, so once he went to the local pub where we grew up & was antagonising some people.
"You think you're so much better than us, don't you?" said one youth.
"Yes" came the reply.
When I think back on this I think that I'd never say that to someone, but I might think it, and despite still living here I would never go to that pub in the first place. So I don't know if my attitude is actually as bad as his.

if you don't want to celebrate Halloween that's more than fine but its not an "American thing". i don't know why haters keep saying this. the origins aren't American

The form in which it's celebrated has little or nothing to do with British tradition, I appreciate that people celebrated All Saints Day (and before that Beltane) but that doesn't have any real connection to what people will be doing on the 31st of this month.
I certainly shan't be answering the door to any young bleeders that come round!

What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done for money?

Syphira’s Profile PhotoSaphira
Well the first job I had was working in a warehouse that distributed CDs and DVDs, including porn.
The very first thing I ever did for wages was load 80 copies of a single "I believe in a thing called love" by The Darkness (I hate them). So I did think this wasn't a very fun introduction to the world of work.
Sorry if this isn't interesting but I've never done anything that wild!

someone gifted us some handmade goodies today including fig preserves (yum) and a rubarb and onion relish. I've never heard of that before, so I don't know how to serve it. Any ideas? Google seemed to lean towards meats but one source said ice cream and I just can't imagine that

shehitsback’s Profile PhotoAllison
Bake the fig jam into a cake, fig rolls are a delicacy and I'd imagine this would be even better.
Have the relish with some poppadoms as part of an overarching curry meal.

Regional quiz: Duck duck grey duck, or duck duck goose? Lolipops or suckers? Midday meal: dinner or lunch? Lightning bug or firefly? On accident, or by accident? What do you call a carbonated beverage? The bumps on your skin when you're cold? A hole in the road?

Lollies
Dinner (though lunch is beginning to catch on, even in traditional working-class areas)
I've never encountered a lightning bug or a firefly!
