RE: An Open Response... I Haven't Done This For A Long Time... BUT Do You Wanna Meet A Cool Community Member?

in OCD4 years ago

Here you go again making awesome posts...Can't hold an almost 50-year old down it seems. I say this because I am indeed 50...OK, I'll be honest, gravity is harder to deal with once 50 comes around; Just gotta work harder at it. :)

A great post based around a good post for sure! It's also nice how you promote the other author so well, that's what this community should be about.

I long for those simple days of yore. Ok, maybe the use of yore takes us back too far, let's just call it yesteryear. A simple lad, raised in a small town 45 kilometres out side of the city, I still wish times were so simple, and less complicated than they are these days. Anyway, it's foolish to wish for it, but wise to chase it, in my opinion, and so we do, my wife and I.

Thanks for an awesome post Steven. Sent to @curangel.

All the best for the rest of the week, and the weekend. I would like to see you comment on my Friday #weekend-engagement topic too. I'll post it Friday afternoon. If not that's ok.

Dude we are both working so damn hard to carry off the humorous, fun, 'still-relevant-honestly' older guy vibe and you go and try and single-handedly collapse the entire house of cards with THAT???

Sorry again for the response-delay, work days ugghhh...

Absolutely, why accept being swept along by so-called progress if that is not the direction you are wanting for your life. We want that mythical balance I guess... Some of the perks of now whilst re-living all the charm of back then.

I am so glad I crossed paths with you in a meaningful way Galen! The engagement, thanks man... Sincerely! The comments have been of the ilk I crave. Humorous, relatable and engaging in a thought provoking way.

((Thankfully with regard to the humour I have always just managed to win each round on points... But I can say one thing, you always showed up!)) 😁

The support has been immense my friend .

I would like to see you comment on my Friday #weekend-engagement topic too. I'll post it Friday afternoon. If not that's ok.

I will be there... I heard it was the society event of the weekend. I am on 7-7 nights Friday and Saturday night but I assume it will still be running on Sunday. Then I have 22 days away from work then!!! I want to REALLY kick-start my blockchain journey after completing my apprenticeship and committing to the adventure.

Take good care Brother, you are massively appreciated 😎

Showed up huh? Lol. I'll pay that. I mostly got picked last for teams at school...Seems my mediocrity felt inclined to move in and stay for life. Oh well, I'll keep performing in my average-to-poor way and enjoy myself nonetheless. 😂

Good running into you too mate. ✅

Haha I was quite literally always the last one picked for the football team... I said always already I'm sure!

There's a lot of times I have those back and forth comments and they are great and all, I always appreciate engagement however it shows itself, but often there's just no soul, no humanity. Damn when ya add a sprinkling of humour in I think it ramps things up massively.

Enjoy the weekend G-dog 😎

Hey mate, I hope you have a great weekend too. It's going to be cold, a but windy and wet here so...TV!

Planning some Indian food tonight, some movies and maybe snacks later. Sunday, not sure...Maybe hang around my mother in-laws or build some Lego. Hope you have a good one!

Next time you go Indian, I wholly recommend home-made samosa. Just tried making them... Wow!

Oh yeah, I love me a good samosa. My grandma, who was Indian, used to make them from scratch. Also curry puffs...So bloody good!

We had samosa the other night, but it all came from an Indian restaurant nearby. Cooking good Indian food is an art, one I have not gained.
