What is your simple lifelong wish
that you could not fulfill till now.
Mine... I have been scolded by my father to grow up since I was 15 or 16. To this day, I want to spend a day without making a joke and totally serious for a whole day. Just cannot do it till now.
My latest "morning coffee" at my workplace: people take turn to write some philosophical statement on a white board. It is my daily job to read and write a spontaneous quip deriding it. It has become a tradition for all of them to eagerly look at the board to see what I write or will write.
This "funny image" is seriously undermining my "Romeo" status.

You can say that... and behave like a typical 103 yr old.

Thank you...that is very heartening to know... Everyone has to have some aim in life and this one will be a permanent one for me to keep my life going.

you'll learn a lot about american pronunciation of english words if you think about how this person's lips could take the shape seen above when he says "burn."doofus_maximus wrote:Jeremiah Mburuburu wrote:may i assure you and your father that, in all the days you've been at sulekha and suCH in the last thirteen or so years, you've never made a joke.Marathadi-Saamiyaar wrote:I have been scolded by my father to grow up since I was 15 or 16.

That one you should be able to achieve in your life time - when you realize all that materialism still left you unhappy.

Re: What is your simple lifelong wish
my ex (bf, not husband), accuses me of being too materialistic. But i dunno if i really am. I look for basic security and necessities of kids that only money can provide. Other than that, I am not into money. Maybe women think more this way. It's all about security (specially of kids) for them, and much of it comes from money.

I hope so too; but unlike someone, I'm not sure I'd be alive to see myself celebrate 90th birthday

LOL. That was K's dream car, not mine. Ya, I happened to buy it (officially) coz i had better credit score than him, and so I happened to keep it post-div. He went back to, oh god i don't even remember what car he has now. either toyoto or nissan, or maybe honda civic. it's parked in my garage now and is still on my insurance, but i don't remember what it is. he kept downgrading last year.

The Axing came aftter MDX.
Nothing makes me happier when I go by bus/train and walk and see people in all their varied behavior.
Gadgets and cars have made life itself lifeless.

I would like to trade my car for a Porsche 911 gt3, my wife for a younger model, my job for something less stressful and more high paying. Also a 70-80 mil lottery would be nice

Well...may be you should look into Dubai Immigration possibilities as you will achieve all of that in a single stroke.
Funny thing happened. a guy looked at my 150K mile 97 small car and offered to buy that bcz he had 2 other exact same cars with same color for his 2 daughters. He wanted my car for his third daughter.
Of course, I declined since it has another 100K miles left.
