Oh I've used the corn gluten meal. It prevents seeds from germinating and weed seeds tend to germinate earlier than grass seed. So you put it on your lawn in late fall or winter, IIRC, and it reduces weeds, then wears off and breaks down as a nutrient in your lawn.

38So Happy to Learn About Homemade Weed Killer
by Iown Mylife inthree days ago we mixed up the recipe and sprayed the driveway cracks and several places where the weeds have been hard to get rid of.. today the weeds are dead just like when we've sprayed commercial weed killer.. mix one gallon white vinegar, 1 cup salt, 5 to 6 tablespoons of dawn dishwashing liquid.
note: don't spray if it's fixin' to rain, wait for dry weather so the stuff will stay on the weeds.
and don't spray where you want anything to grow ever!.

You guys have not seen people selling, say, an iPhone, pictured between 2 bare breasts? There's lots of that on eBay. It's against the rules, so they're shut down if discovered. But lots get posted initially.
LisaRose, I was a big Regretsy fan. It was hilarious. I was just looking at something on Etsy yesterday and I liked the item. If it was just a pic of the item, I might have bought it. But the item (a ceramic piece) was modeled by a woman who appeared to have not bathed or groomed herself in a long time. There were close-ups of her hands with filthy fingernails. I didn't buy it because of that.

RoundUp is so bad. We had someone spray it on our property and now we're battling an ant infestation. Pesticides suck.
I have also used boiling white vinegar as a weed killer. Just heat it up in your microwave and pour on. Best results when you do it on a sunny day so the sun helps you.

Some people will go to great lengths to get their auctions to stand out. Misuse of keywords, models wearing the item for sale while mostly naked or in provacative poses in the background, etc. I don't know if they're nuts, brilliant businesspeople, or both. Amusing though!
Have you noticed any?

For those who have been out for 5 years or more.......
by Phizzy in........... do you find you are now far more relaxed about things ?
things in general, and things wt/jw related ?.
i find i am much more relaxed and pragmatic about life in general, mrs phizzy and i do what we can, but we don't get overly upset at what we cannot do.

my relaxed attitude is letting the side down
Nope. I know of no obligation we have to save cultists who have voluntarily chose to be in a cult. What have they done for you?

"It's not religious..." Wait... What???
by dynamiterose77 inmy friend, mike works as a massage therapist, and there is a woman at the shop that is super-jw-woman and is constantly hounding him with things.. today, he's messaging me and he tells me that she was trying to push a brochure or something on him.
he said he'd really rather not read a religious pamphlet.. so... she says, "it's not religious... it's from god.".
isn't that kinda what religious means?

What's she getting out of this?
Counting her time? Walk away, be inaccessible, change the subject and talk incessantly so she can't get a word in.
Being right? You got that one covered.
Controlling him (using the captive audience to say whatever she wants)? Walk away, say you don't believe she's right, say no to everything she says, talk nonsense back to her so she tires out.
My strategy is to figure out what the dub is getting out of this behavior, and then remove that reward. B.F. Skinner said that works. So did Sheldon. Chocolate?

I hope you don't come down with pinkeye, scabies, bedbugs, or mononucleosis. That would be contagious.

Seriously, he could get her to quit rather easily.
There's lots of massage techniques, meditation stuff, etc. that he could start talking about as incessantly as she talks about her non-religion. Discuss chakras, etc. He could say something about how he did a ritual in all the rooms to bring the positive spirits there and they're speaking to him now no matter where he goes in the building. They are telling him they are trying to possess her or something.
Deliver this news with a secretive wink. She will freak out and quit.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it was a combo of ethics and happiness.
