It and it's author "do not exist" here any longer

Was it a hoax?

They erased it.

OP moved to Seattle and is now sleepless because her cake fell.

((choke)) Lolololol. Probably!

It didn't get mean that I saw, she was laughing about it just before my last post on the thread.

I heard that if there's wintery mix and you start a thread, it'll end up deleted.

you guys are so crazy! I thought she started to find the humor in it as well.

Oh, and look, some of the main "meanies" on the same thread!

I was just looking for that thread, too. I had some more "wisdom" passed down from my mother.
Don't bake in the rain.
Upside down leaves mean a storm is coming.
Peeing on the side of the road gives you pink eye....

That was such a funny thread!

Upside down leaves do mean a storm is coming. The wind has kicked up and is blowing hard, and the weather is going to change.

Eating the end crust from the loaf of bread gives you freckles.

Applegum, I think you're awesome. I don't care WHAT everyone else says about ya!

More old saying we grew up with:

If you play with fire, you'll pee the bed (said our dad when we wanted to help him burn the trash).

True one: My grandfather taught me to read cornfields and I've been right for the last 15-20 years. About the 3rd week of August, I start checking the corn. If the ears of corn are tight and really hugging the stalk, it's going to be a tough, cold winter. If the ears are loosely hanging away from the stalk, it will be a mild winter.

It's going to be pretty cold this year.

If you look outside and ther's an orange hue to the trees the grass, the atmosphere, there's a tornado coming. I knew a guy who was an official storm watcher and this is one thing he watched for.

When I was in high school, I was an editor on our school paper and we did one issue on superstitions. We found one that said if you sleep in a beanfield overnight, you'll go crazy. We kinda wondered how crazy you had to be to start with to be willing to sleep in a bean field anyway!!

You know what I was thinking. Someone is going to come along and read this thread and talk about how everyone on here is so harsh and makes them scared to post on C.C. and how C.C. is for everyone and it shouldn't be like this and yadda, yadda, yadda. And then another C.C.er is gonna come along and say how they are right and how mean we really are and all that yadda, yadda, yadda. ...or did I just kill that possibility by writing this?

Actually, we've had a very mild winter so far. Almost everyone else seems to be getting slammed this year though.

True...sad, but true.

I'm sure there must be other sites out there. whisper (I've been on some of them myself. gasp)
Like I said, just before my last post on it she was laughing and said she would continue to post. Guess she changed her mind.
-
I don't think a bean field would be very comfortable, Debi - maybe if one is drunk?
Let's see -
A watermelon will grow in your stomach if you swallow a watermelon seed.
To prevent an unwelcome guest from returning, sweep out the room they stayed in immediately after they leave.
Stir everything clockwise for good luck.

What about the one that the first person who walks in your front door New Years, will determine how your year goes. Now what if it's your MIL.

Does that mean I'm not batshit crazy, either?!

Hey Bella,

Did your "price" thread get deleted too? What the heck is going on around here?

You might not be crazy, but your emoticons are nuts!!! Other news from my mom:

sitting on cold concrete gives you bladder infections
a wool scarf worn around your neck all night will cure a sore throat
the weather changes on a new moon

My Pap-pap used to "encourage" us granddaughters to eat our veg, by saying it would grow hair on our chests!

Snif. I miss my Pap-pap.
