And every. single. person. answers. the same way.

Well... Barring the ones with terrible memories 

Which are a not-insignificant portion of the population, you'll recall!

[hector13]

A song from a Scottish, early ‘90s children folk group, starting from shortly after 37 minutes from this link.

My favourite lyrics being:

The doctor says I’m dying.
DY-Y-ING

and then

They put me in a coffin
A CO-O-FFIN

And then angels conspiring to kill me again when I’m in heaven.

This may explain my demands for strained soup when I was a child, and my obstinate anti-religion today, as the bit before the song terrified me.

And what about sundrop? Sundrop in a bottle?

But why strained soup?

[hector13]

And what about sundrop? Sundrop in a bottle?

But why strained soup?

No veggies to choke in and have angels conspire against my eternal soul.

[LordBaal]

Blended soup is better. Strained one sounds like hot salty water and little else.

That’s basically what it is.

My maternal grandmother hosted a family dinner thing every month, and my uncle always told me that all I was eating was flavored water.

Better than the heavenly host eating your soul.

Better than the heavenly host eating your soul.

This is really weird out of context. May I sig it?

Absolutely.

So my sister had jeans the zipper of which would not close.
Since she refused to buy new ones and stop using these (a WTF of its own, but not todays), I gave her a choice which of us would repair them. She said I, so I repaired both mine and hers. (Mine had a hole in their pocket caused by keys.)

I am at only a dabbling tailor on the DF skill scale. So while I did manage to replace the zipper, the needlework is shoddy and at one point I had to tear up what I just sewn, because I sew the pants folded.
I do not think it was a good idea having me repair the pants. I wonder whether she knew.

[heydude6]

Perhaps she knew she was worse.

[Frumple]

Mind, it's questionably something that even needs fixing if the pants still wear fine. There's been a few times in my life I've wore pants with non-functioning buttons or zippers for, like... years. In general if you belt the things closed it won't make much of a difference. Wear an untucked shirt with some extra length to it and it's bloody unlikely anyone even notices.

[King Zultan]

Wearing damaged pants is all well and good until your willy pops out while your walking through a park.

[heydude6]

That’s what underwear is for.

[LordBaal]

My mother sews, and of course I know a little of it because when growing up I was teach a little of everything and boy it has paid off. One thing I have never done is replacing zippers and Im sure theres a special swewing machine just for that.

Your sister is doomed to pulbic shame, that is what Im waying.
