It's working for Doug. But then again you could say, "Did he say B-25??? BINGO! I HAVE BINGO!" and it would sound youthful to Doug.

Are we playing bingo? Deal me in!!

I think I like the meta threads, like this one. Perhaps that should go under philosophical questions.

Parental brags are simply what people have been calling them. Though I could sign on with Bernard on this, too. And SK:

I take the parental brag threads as microaggression against those of us without children. I can't take it anymore. Can't we single, childless people have a safe space here? I feel threatened by all the gloating; if there's but one such thread on the main page I can't even concentrate on what I'm reading in the other threads. Enough already! Leave us peace!!

But consider, Bernard, that your keeping us abreast of your incredible achievements in countless crafts, decorating and music (sure I'm forgetting many) might make some of us feel inadequate.

I love reading about them, but I confess to feeling somewhat of a failure by comparison...

What a shame it would be for us all (and how personally frustrating, I'm sure) if you felt constrained by some concept of online "manners" not to share them with us. (PLEASE don't stop!)

Ah, but, creativity is not a zero-sum game, and I also don't believe in "more creative" or "less creative". The nice thing about creativity is there is no failure in it. It's always boundless.

Bernard, you always inspire me with each new endeavor. I may not wish to play cello in an orchestra, or raise birds, or weave, but watching you do it, I sit back and say to myself, "anything is possible!" Its a great feeling!

You’re misinterpreting it. It’s meant as a full-on macroagression.

WTF is on point today, between this thread and the LOLchicvulvas thread.

WTF is lit. Maybe even fleek.

I finally picked "human relations." Not because of relationship advice but just because I like the people here, and being part of this group.

I think that's my pick, too, and for the same reasons.

I have quite a few un-favorites, but not too hard to simply ignore them. Still plenty left to participate in!
