Open forum has become, the "Dooms Day Prepper" Forum

Anyone else becoming slightly annoyed with the doom and gloom? This thread included.

I'm just hoping I don't wake up in the hospital, missing my Rolex, wearing Spanx and left with nothing but Thousand Island dressing.

I'm not prepared for that.

And the fella in the next bed talking on the phone.




Wondering what's the best way to clean his watch.

I'd probably err on the side of eating horse in this case. I hear Wookiee is chewy.

Political climate, climate change, pandemic and Rolex shortage probably playing a part.

I enjoy the Open Forum (if you can't tell from the threads I've started)...I just choose not to click on the topics that I don't care about. So, no doom / gloom for me!

Your threads are actually the ones I love. Your pictures are amazing, and as someone else once said about your pictures, they are so beautiful I feel like I've already been there without going....

Same! How post were always good reading.

Maybe they could change the rules to allow us to vote 1 banned member back per year. BC and Mon would surely win a vote.
