Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Thank you for your time. I really should add that I'm still entering them even though some of them elicit groans every time I click on the link. But it's nice knowing that I'm not alone in my attitude. bounce

Quote from kvilla :
Heard!!! I get annoyed with all that too, and what's the deal with hostess??? Make you enter those long horrible captchas and never win anything! grrrrr Bonk
I just do one each day to enter for the grand prize. I KNOW I'm not getting an instant win out of them. The sugar ones always elude me. Now if they were giving away purses for the instant win......OMG

There just wasn't enough stain butt-kicking in Stain Kicker so it's gone on a brief hiatus while we kick it up a notch. The snakeskin boot will be back soon with better functionality and prizes to be won!

Quote from shesays :
OMG ! ! ! HOW ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL.

Thank you so much for giving us those photos. I love how they were just sitting on your hand like that. They're beautiful. Did you give them each cell phones so they could let you know how it's going out there in the real world? Have they got jobs lined up yet? Are you going to miss them terrribly?
I packed them all lunch and tied it to a lil twig with a bandana.. was like their first day of school.. they promised to write.. but ya know how kids are Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)They are still out there flutterin around my lavender Big Grin
Quote from kvilla :
Thanks! Know what grand daughter is getting for birthday!
Sweet.. I know she will absolutely love it! I think the whole kit with the kids and the habitat was $29.. they have a few to choose from...the lil tent one was adorable.

Okay, I fully realize that the contests are every once in a while giving us something for free, but I'm REALLY getting tired of:

1) The ones like Ghiradelli where you click enter on page one, enter your email on page two along with a saying and your favorite chocolate, then the third page, you choose a background, the fourth page you click next, and the 5th page you enter your info and the captcha. All of that could be put on ONE page, but we spend hours during the contest going through the pages and waiting for them to load.

2) The artsy-fartsy let's wait until the milk curdles while it loads contests. Sure, some graphic designers got paid big bucks to come up with them, but they are such a drag to enter.

3) The facebook ones where you wait for all the ads to load before you can click enter then wait for all the ads to load before you can actually put in any information. Also, those things crash with frightening regularity.

4) The ones that "require" codes, but if you don't have any, just tell them to send you one via email, or go click in two places and it will magically appear. Either you need a bloody code or you don't. Stop messing with me, for goodness sakes.

I wish they'd all just let me enter my email address and move on to the next one. They should make it easy to give us free stuff, not make us jump through the proverbial hoops. If I had free stuff to give away, I'd just do it. People would like me more. But nobody listens to me. You didn't even bother to read this far, did you? Thought not. Rodney Dangerfield time again.

What a perfect rant! I seldom enter the ones that annoy me or take too much time anymore.
Then there's Mountain Dew Throwback Shack, where they let you keep picking a prize, when you may have actually won it.
