Today, while moving into my new place, I saw my new, elderly neighbor sitting on her porch. I cheerfully greeted her with, "Hello, how are you?" She simply rocked slowly in her chair and replied, "Just waiting to die." She was the most cheerful person I met all day. FML

Go back tomorrow and talk to her, cheer her up and ask her about her life. It's always interesting to listen to elderly people talk about how the world used to be.

#1 spelt euphoria right, but you're going to be anal because they accidentally typed 'woth'? There is 'grammar nazi', and then there's just being a dick.

I didn't realize it was a dick move for somebody to correct themselves #15. Maybe I'm out of the loop.

It's okay Roevera, good to know someone has my back when the nazis come. Besides I think this is the longest thread I've had on one of my comments, so thanks!

Although it'll be good to know what she still enjoys & make her happier about her present. Else like in a movie that Dwayne Johnson starred in, she could actually be an undercover look-out sitting on that porch there! :D

It's hasn't even been a day man. I'm sure you'll make some great friends in a few months.

"It will come sooner than you expect with that attitude...*wink*" and walk away. That's how you responded right?

Thumbs down. Hint taken.

Sounds like you need to liven up your environment. Surround yourself with positive people and it will change your life.

I don't think it's getting any better... And I can't believe I forgot to sign into my account when I submitted this.
Roevera 14
Is there any other people around not waiting to die?
Epikouros 32
Don't worry, we recognize you anyway. You're the babysitter! :)

No no 49, she's the preschool teacher that was walking around the club with red & green shots saying "red and green, merry Kwanzaa!" but had no recollection of doing so, save for a video her friend took. (if I remember correctly) Oh wait you're trolling... damn should've noticed.

Omg! I'm remembered! Also, it looks like I did sign in, it just didn't show up in the app at first.
Roevera 14
Just ask her if she needs any help, you're right next door.
