35+ Where is everybody?
35 & Over sub-community
Is there anybody out there? Hello hello hello *echo* Where is everybody? I'm bored and lonely 😔
It's 9/24, where thee frick is everybody again? Did you all get Saturday night fever and go out dancing? You're all a bunch of John Travoltas lol.
I’m in the spinning earth future and it was already Sunday for me. You are like 15hrs behind me or something like that. Literally you are on the other side of the globe 🌏 🌎 so we blocking each other’s sun.
I'm living in the past. I gotta get with the times! These new shoes are already out of style in Australia 😱
Hahahah. Yeah that’s it 😂. We mostly just wear thongs in Australia because of the warm weather fyi I’m talking about footwear not underwear 😂. that might have been lost in translation. I believe that’s Flip Flops or Jandals in your strange land…. but we call them thongs 🩴 🩴 on this side of the globe.
Lmao! I did picture a bunch of people wearing thong underwear when I read that first part 😄
It's 8:20am as I'm typing this. Must be 11:20pm in your part of the world, so...Goodnight lol ⭐🌛
I’m an insomniac so I pretty much run on your US time. You are right it was 11:20pm now 12:36pm and I’ll probably be awake until about 4am because I’m taking a break from the medication that helps me sleep because it can start to make me feel awful and exhausted all the time. Getting less sleep but feeling like I have more energy so go figure.
We definitely have plenty of people wearing thong underwear and bikini too definitely people rock thongs with thong’s on… double thonging!. Hahahah. But we call them g-strings. I actually don’t know why! I understand the string part but I’m unclear on the G got into the word??? will be another interesting addition to my Google search history me thinks.
People call them g-strings here too, and my Google search on why they're called g-strings revealed this-
Linguist Robert Hendrickson believes that the 'G' stands for 'groin'. The Oxford English Dictionary reports that the G-string was originally a narrow strip of fabric worn by Indian women.Feb 19, 2017
I kinda want to unknown that now! Hahahah. Dropping the “roin” to just the G definitely sounds much better. 😂. It really should be A String because the string is at the back isn’t it, with more a strip of fabric or triangle on the front 🤔 so I’m thinking we change it to G-triangle or A-string because clearly it wasn’t thought through very well when it was named 😂
I think we should just call it butt floss 🤷♀️
Hahahaha. I like it! Butt Floss it is!
I haven't flossing my butt in ages! How about you?
My proctologist is going to be upset with me.
Gosh darn it, I said flossed* lol
Hahahah. No I haven’t ever flossed my butt! Intentionally at least… Obviously I’ve had normal ride up of underwear, but I have never had a man thong to officially butt floss! Maybe that’s something that I can set as a goal! When I’m feeling depression and alone I can just remember I’m working towards butt flossing and everything isn’t as bad as it might seem. 😂
I read that Australia has the most venomous snakes in the world. Aren't people worried about snake bites walking around in thongs (hehe)?
Hahahah. Somehow we manage! Everything is venomous or poisonous down here so we are kinda used to it and can clearly navigate the hazards with less than optimal protective footwear.
as we say down under. “She’ll be right mate” our way of saying nothing to worry about. 😂
Not to mention the thong is an optimal footwear for a quick removal for any unexpected spider smacking or bug swatting - so it has its offensive attributes that help outweigh it’s clear lacking in the defensive attributes. 😂
I'm just teasing 😄 Surely there aren't snakes everywhere, AHHHH! You're not gonna be walking in the store and suddenly a viper pops out of the toilet paper shelf to bite your exposed toe 😱 right?
Hahahaha. Yeah it’s kinda something we Aussies play on… really depends on where you are… there are real dangers but we have warning systems etc and are very cautious. Like we have periods that we can’t swim along certain coastal beaches because we get killer jelly fish and you have to swim in full body stinger swim suits onesies if you are that desperate to swim. Obviously in snake country we have to wear boots and leg gators to protect us from snake bites. I remember coming across a lot of red belly black snakes and they are really dangerous and would chase you! That was just in local nature reserves close to our houses so there are dangerous stuff… we get red back spiders and white tail spiders in our houses and both can kill I believe but we manage to coexist somehow. So I guess it’s a mixture of mythos and truth. But Australia is an amazing country and I definitely recommend coming for a holiday some time… I honestly think you would love it here and set along with our people. We love to have a joke and get some good banter going and you seem like a Aussie to me so you are now an honorary Australian by my declaration 🇦🇺 An official Aussie SweetPea
Thank you! Now that I'm aussiefied, do I get a free pair of thongs (shoes or underwear) and a pet wallaby? I wanna be prepared for the dangerous, but thrilling adventures we'll have when I come to visit.
I suppose I'll have to talk to Doc and dust off the old DeLorean so I can go 15 hours...into the future!
You definitely get free thong’s on arrival… both shoes and underwear! You have to earn the pet Wallaby because that’s a big responsibility! We’ll start you off with a little Bilbie and work you up to the Wallabies and Kangaroos as you progress up our wildlife ladder. 😂
I’m pretty sure you can just fly on a normal plane and like magic when you arrive it’s 15hrs in the future somehow! But getting Doc into the mix and time traveling in a DeLorean sound like more fun to me.
Ok, I'm back. I had to go wait outside for the school bus.
So are we going to go jellyfishing like in the SpongeBob cartoons? I'll wear the stinger onesie with my thongs.
Hahahahah. Absolutely! You make me smile 😀 I’ll get you a stinger suit, thongs and we can SpongeBob around in the water together in peak stinger season and have a great old time! 😂
I'M READY!!
Hahaha. I don’t go to the city anymore. I’m a bit of a homebody these days. Basically I live in a place I call Luketopia… it’s my kingdom I have created for myself that I’m comfortable in. I actually have a mate trying to get me to go to an axe throwing “centre” correct English spelling…. or “center” in your strange phonetic but incorrect spelling! 😅. If you ever come down under I’ll promise I’ll take you to the city for sight seeing. It’s actually a beautiful city. All out city are on main rivers and have beautiful scenery. But legit I would love you to come visit one time and collect your thongs, thong and stinger onesie and just to make it official will have to get you a Southern Cross tattoo somewhere and a hat with corks on strings to keep the flys out of your face. 😂. I’ll have you talking in a awesome Aussie accent before too long and you will be using all our slang and eating Vegimite sandwiches like a champ! Seriously I feel a strong connection with you and genuinely look forward to reading your messages Captain SweetPea. I think you are an amazing person and knowing a little about what you have been through… I think it’s awesome you are such a positive person and I love how your mind works! 😁😁😁. Really happy to have met you Miss!
Aww, you are such a sweetpea 🤗 I'm enjoying the connection too. It's as though we are old friends. Happy to have intermet (I combined "internet" and "met" there) you too, Sir.
Luketopia sounds like a wonderful place. I have my own queendom as well, but my name is weird. Speaking of weird...centre looks like it's pronounced "sen-TRAY" to me 😄 And you guys put the "our" in color too, right? Colour looks like it's pronounced "kul-OUR". Even my autocorrect wanted to change it to color lol. Hmm, vegimite sandwich 🤔 I'll have to give that a Google. I take it there's no meat 😱
Hi
Hey! What was the last song you couldn't get out of your head? Mine was an oldie song called Oh Sweet Pea-
https://youtu.be/v9Li_P9A5_Q
Omg what an adorable old song ❤️ Hadn’t heard that before. Your link didn’t work for me for some reason… The girl he is singing to in this clip below I found is such a sweetheart.. or sweet pea I guess. The expressions on her face are priceless and makes me smile. That was in 1967 so 55 years ago! She must be in her 70’s now. I hope she had a good life.
My parents are older so we used to listen to alot of oldies songs when I was a kid. I love all kinds of music, but oldies are nostalgic for me. That was a cute video 🙂
Same, I was listening to Little Richard and all the classic rock on tapes my dad made me. 😊
me singing at 8yo with my Sony Walkman
Wop bop a loo bop a lop bam boom
Tutti frutti, oh rootie
Tutti frutti, oh rootie, ooh
Tutti frutti, oh rootie
Tutti frutti, oh rootie
Tutti frutti, oh rootie
A wop bop a loo bop a lop bam boom 🤣

With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you 🎵
I hope to have two cats in the yard and life not be so hard someday 🙂

Captain's Log
Day 2 of hunting the lone fly in my house.
As I sit here with thick papers ready to swat, the fly buzzes around me. He lands on my leg and I question whether or not I want his guts splattered on my precious leg. No...that would be gross. The fly torments me like a schoolyard bully saying, "Haha" and "You can't get me!"
He buzzes the buzziest buzz that ever was. Is it a buzz or is he giving me the raspberry 🤔 The latter, I think. If he lands on a surface close to me, it'll be game over. So for now...I wait 😏
To be continued...
Captain Pea 🫡
I am at your service with my trusty thong fly swatters already off and at the ready to attack at your orders!
🤣😂🤣
The shoo fly is still in my house. He likes to visit me by landing on my leg. I think he knows that's his safe spot because I won't swat my own leg. This morning I caught him watching my living room tv. The audacity! 😬
😁 I’m starting to think it’s actually a friendly fly… just wanting to be your friend and is actually just keeping you company and watching over you to make sure you are doing okay 👌🏻
He is actually a fully trained Flychologist…. he was training to be a Flychiatrist but couldn’t keep his grades up to stay in fly medical school… it’s super competitive… so he settled on being a Flychologist and helping people that way! His parents were disappointed because they come from a long line of Flychiatrist on both his Mom’s and Dad’s sides and expected him to keep the tradition going. So he left home and set up shop in your house it seems 😀
@SweetPea321 we are here. Reach out to talk
@independentFig7852 Hi Figgy. Nice to meet you. I come here to give and get support. This place makes me less lonely. I'm a single mother of an autistic child. It's hard to go anywhere or have people over because my daughter struggles with her behavior.
@SweetPea321 I understand you dear. You are doing great. Trust me.
I met a strange lady, she made me real nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
She said:
"Do you come from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover"
"Hey, do you speak-a my language, buck?"
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich
And he said:
"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better, better run, you better take cover"
Get down
