Why is the answer to these always GET OUT?

Re: Random, Random 2.0
I'm just gonna say, someone who really has celiac disease would never eat a plate of spaghetti without any conversation about what kind they got, especially in someone else's home. The existence/non-existence of the sister is the bigger issue here though. Psychotic family rabbit hole is right.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
If she is lying about gluten...
Also, the story is so weird that if her family reads it they will know he was the person posting it. I say time to run away and open a donuts shop, so if she comes back with the shotgun he can get protection (there will be cops in there).

Re: Random, Random 2.0
I hear you, but it was her parent's home. Most people don't need to have any convos with their parents about what they can and cannot eat unless it was a new diagnosis and this wasn't (well her faking it at least).MJ2004 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 24, 2021 8:49 pm I'm just gonna say, someone who really has celiac disease would never eat a plate of spaghetti without any conversation about what kind they got, especially in someone else's home.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
Assuming the fiancee was telling the truth, she would know if her mother had prior issues with her "diagnosis" and wouldn't just blindly eat a heap of gluten. The point I was making is that unless you're in a safe environment, you always question. Her not saying anything in advance proves the fiancee was making it up.

My cousin was a talking head on CBS This Morning today--she's a conservatorship lawyer, so they brought her on to talk about Britney's testimony yesterday

Re: Random, Random 2.0
When I was young I always had the fantasy of buying one of those Eurail passes and travel Europe by train. I like them (as we have none in Venezuela or Colombia, and just a few in S. America).

Re: Random, Random 2.0
Train travel is having a second renaissance in Europe these days. Even Latvia is buying new rolling stock and building a new line.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
If you buy a Eurail pass before you fly to Europe you can plot out where you want to go and buy a pass that will suit your itinerary. We missed going to Germany because it would've meant an overnight stay we hadn't budgeted for. It's the best way to go
