He is a sweetheart and loves his LG so thought we would love ours ( for whatever reason he bought Samsung for us, yuk) Yes, you do have to leave the door open after use, your clothes will smell of mildew and they just don't feel clean. The rubber casing around the drum of the washer never dries out, you have to wipe it after each use. What a pain in the butt, who has time for that?? I did not get the pedestal, either, so bending down and reaching in to the back of the washer sucks. I have tried all of the recommendations for cleaning the washer, none of them work. My only solution is to use scented fabric softener in the wash cycle and scented dryer sheets. Sometimes that works, sometimes not. You have to take the clothes out of the washer immediately after it's done and put them in the dryer and turn dryer on. You can't leave them in the washer for even a few minutes or they will start to stink! Son also bought a front loader dryer to go with the washer and I do love that, never any wrinkles in my clothes and dries quickly. Too bad the clothes smell like shit! I started watching “The Fall,” starring Gillian Anderson. It’s flawed, yet pretty addicting, in my opinion. There’s a scene in which the serial killer is laundering the victim’s clothing and bedding. The front loader he had to use totally pulled me out of the moment, because all I could think about was all of your comments, and how the forensics team would still have a lot to work with.

SuprSuprElevated December 7, 2018 Share December 7, 2018 I had to read the lyrics to the song after I read about this last week. It is basically about a fellow coaxing his (presumed girl)friend to spend the night, while she sort of offers up reasons why she shouldn't. There are references to her parents, so we know that she lives at home. Now remember, this song was written in 1944, when it was the norm for women to live at home with parents, generally until they married. All that said, I will weigh in with the idea that we can chalk up another one for the professionally offended. I would put up these lyrics against many, many modern lyrics, rap and other genres, which portray women and the treatment of women far, far worse than does this song. As for Rudolph, once again, the professionally offended are missing the teaching moment provided. Rather than consider it as an example of bullying, I would think it to be more of a morality example about the positive outcome Rudolph had, despite being "bullied". Idiots. 9 hours ago, Mindthinkr said: I was over at my neighbors and he was singing that song. I told him about the controversy.

Jel December 7, 2018 Share December 7, 2018 I've only read a it about this, but enough to know that song was written as a duet for the songwriter to sing with his wife at parties, so I do not for one minute think it's about date rape. I think if you look hard enough, you can find an element of creepiness, in that many young women have likely found themselves in a situation that either did go wrong or felt like it could have. The come on, stay, just have another drink despite the fact that she has already said she has to go part. (But she "has to go" because of familial and societal pressure, not because she wants to -- she wants to stay. Interestingly, and thanks to many feminists debating and arguing, out in the open, minds have changed and societal pressure has fallen away, so that element of it may not be well understood by the young people who are objecting to the song) But as for the creepy component, in this song, you have to look really, really hard for it. I do find it kind of pitiful that of all songs, this is the one people pick, when, as SuprSuprElevated points out, there are plenty more modern songs which are much worse, far more disrespectful, far more menacing, to women. So bloody cowardly. But mostly, in the objection to it, there's this weird post-modernist "don't try to change my mind" element which I find most disturbing. He's trying to talk her into staying -- and that's the real problem -- he's trying to change her mind, which itself is viewed in some circles as an act of aggression. I'm an old school liberal, and I'm not talking about politics, but rather a willingness to discuss and debate things, and so there's no opinion that I am not willing to hear, even if I find those opinions abhorrent. In fact, the thought of abhorrent ideas staying "underground" scares me much more than having them out in the open where they can be publicly debated and shown to be wrong. The idea is that you bring a better, more reasoned argument and try to change minds, and you do this out in the open, and for the love of mike, at universities! (gah! and double gah!) Historically, this approach has served humanity well. It can be a slow process for sure, but it is effective. What is not effective as a social progress tool is shutting down debate and refusing to allow dissent, or even refusing to allow stupid, ignorant opinions to be expressed. Maybe I'm being overly dramatic and paranoid and it's just banning one song, so it's not big deal, but I have to say it feels like the thin edge of the wedge, and that concerns me. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/25/#findComment-4899768

What the actual f*ck. So now sexual relations between unmarried folk (probably married too) is date rape? Because if we're going to gauge whether or not one party is more aggressively pursuing, will we need spread sheets and pulse oximeters? The act of dating ought to be real interesting for the next 20 years. Glad I won't be participating, lol. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/25/#findComment-4904472

I’m in heaven. If I listed all my Sunday night shows, y'all would be calling the authorities for a 5150 hold (let's just say at it's apogee, my DVR was recording over 20 shows on a Sunday). My highlights tonight are Amanda to the Rescue, The Last Alaskans, Escape at Dannemora, Ray Donovan, Counterpart, Dirty John, PBS stuff, the ho'wives, & true crime shows. Most of which I'll watch in the wee hours after my evening nap, and tomorrow between catnaps & critters. :-) 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/25/#findComment-4904678

Yes, because of the "say what's in this drink" line which implies he drugged her or spiked her drink to make her too intoxicated to leave. Not to mention that the entire song is about her wanting and trying to leave while he stops her. So yeah, it hints at date rape. I don't think anyone is implying it causes date rape. Just that it's a super rapey vibe in the song and people in this century, after Cosby and Weinstein and on and on, are done putting up with thinking it's cute to pressure a woman into doing something she doesn't want to do. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/25/#findComment-4907465

I agree with you and I have a feeling a lot of people would also if they pictured a dude like Aviva's creep dad saying the same lyrics instead of the charming, clean cut man we usually see performing this song. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1870-small-talk-the-regency-bar/page/25/#findComment-4908083
film noire December 10, 2018 Share December 10, 2018 (edited) Baby, It's Cold Outside Of PTV I really can say (but baby, it's cold outside!) We can disagree away (but baby, it's cold outside!) This discussion has been (been hoping that you'd drop in) So very nice (i type and eat my giant slice...) My motherboard will start to get blurry (indisputable - please don't worry) My father is upvoting me galore (listen to the whole forum roar!) So really I'd better scurry (thx for the PM - no need to hurry) But maybe just a half a thought more? (meme-ing while we L on the floor) Fellow posters might blink (baby, it's wild out there!) Or say - wait, that made me think (no jabs to be had out there) I wish I knew how (your avatar is like starlight now) To goddamn spell!! (I love your cat - and your posts look swell!) I ought to say, your mileage may vary, sir (mind if I prove my point closer?) At least I'm gonna say that I tried (and what's the use in hurtin' our pride?) I really can say (oh baby don't pull the bold out) But baby, it's Cold! Out! Side!

Ellee December 12, 2018 Share December 12, 2018 Did anyone watch The Voice last night? Michael Buble was on in the very beginning. I ff’d only because of my time limits and will watch in its entirety tonight. Can’t even tell you what song. I’m interested to see what everyone thinks. Thanks, Supr, for letting us know ‘Baby ....’ is being played again. Got to get to work. It’s busy, busy time.
