NatashaW

I always said the TV was my dad's me6, he'd be walking past it, stop, start watching, jaw dropped... "Dad," I'd say. "Sshhh!" he'd respond. "But Dad," I'd continue, "It's an ad!"

12:32 pm

MollyL

I'm still trying to figure out how a single hair goes off on its own

12:32 pm

NatashaW

Once his eyes contacted that screen... he was a goner.

12:32 pm

NatashaW

Yes, mine go off on their own in droves.

12:32 pm

MollyL

Did he turn to stone? People who gazed at me6 turned to stone.

12:33 pm

NatashaW

Figuratively, yes. He'd be rooted to the spot, jaw down, unable to tear himself away from watching something he'd had absolutely no interest in a mere second earlier

12:33 pm

MollyL

A patch of hair can go off on its own, but one single hair?

1:32 pm

serenitynow

Oops. She did it again.

1:33 pm

Dorens

single hairs can go off on their own after menopausal changes.. they get really knky and frizzy
