Post Mongering 6/22/22 (Part 2)

If I remember right, I was the first person to complain about not winning a bucket.

Pick me.

You’re right!

We don’t believe it.

I don’t believe they’re fresh of anything.

@peaceetc – really, I would’ve been more understanding if she’d been sitting there alone. But I’m thinking the two younger adults (kids? older grandkids?) don’t have any form of dementia, and should’ve started wondering what mom/grandma kept looking over at the door for. I would’ve, and did whenever I visited Grandmother. Something would catch her attention out in the hall, and every time I would also look to see what it was. After all, if it’s registered on her awareness, then let’s talk about it, right?

@Goldielucks --oh, that’s hilarious! Hope the hubs is happy with your bucket

@privateerx1 --Ohhh! You have a salt tank. That’s way more work than I’ll do. Seriously, I barely manage to take care of the sushis’ tank. Don’t keep up with water changes at all, sometimes remember to change (and clean) out the filters. Which reminds me, it’s probably time to do that again. Luckily they’re koi and hardy, so have adjusted to the way-high ammonia and everything else wrong with the water. And I do actually gravel-vac their poop every night. They are poop machines. Eat and poop and eat some more and poop even more. That’s their lives. But I do love them, and they do recognise my existence and even enjoy my presense when I sit on the davenport watching tv next to the tank.

@AHudgens --unless they’ve changed, yes. As in free free. FREE free, even. It was easy-peasy for me when I worked at that Purple branch. I’d just go next door and tell them I needed some, and they’d put them out back with a note “For FX lady” But no real trick. I once had to call another store that was en route home and asked if they had any, and when they did asked if they could save them for me. Which they very happily did.
Well, I suppose the trick is, be polite and nice when asking.

Second and third and hundred-somethingth this!!! !!! !!! !!! !!!

@mareli83 --you didn’t inc pepper. I don’t remember what she did anymore, but I remember it was fabulous and incredible and looked like it took tons of time and effort, and she deserves the bucket or at least the virtual bucket since dave claims “there’s no buckets left” (yeah right)

She’s the 5th one on my list of words. Although she didn’t get a bucket from the cat, I did give her a “Bucket,” in consolation.

I knew there was a trick. Hmmm.

I might have to try this “polite and nice” gambit.

Thanks for sharing your jedi ways, @SylvreKat

@renatuslives - AWESOME narrative! Truly epic!!

I meant in your poll. I can’t vote 'cause my choice isn’t an option–namely, pepper!

@AHudgens - any time, young padawan. Any time.

So, have we heard anything from @robertscheffler or do we need to start @DuckyDucky -ing him :smile_cat:

I think robertscheffler’s was delivered a while back so we should be at 100% bucket coverage once BlackRose13 gets theirs.

Or at least 100% delivered. Not everyone is proud enough to post about their bucket. Or maybe they already resold it on Amazon and made a tidy profit

I would have voted for @Se7enty9 since he was the only one in the top 19 most prolific posters who didn’t get a lucky draw.

My bucket has arrived! The cats explored it and Apollo claimed it as his…



Not sure how often he’ll use it as he does love his plastic storage box…
