I'll duck my head and mention that I do like dystopian stuff sometimes, a late finding in my life. I hope next week is kinder to you and sweeter and you are feeling better.

A world consisting of nothing but endless knitting in the round would be pretty damn boring.<br /><br />I knit a lot of things, but mostly garments, and that requires purling as does cabling, ribbing, moss stitch, and on and on and on.<br /><br />How can you knit without it???Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06053059768357457383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-15737126914197351072018-03-02T13:56:30.977-05:002018-03-02T13:56:30.977-05:00Amen!Amen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-71075282944440423992018-03-02T12:04:05.223-05:002018-03-02T12:04:05.223-05:00I felt that way about the snowboarding also.

So you are not completely alone, but we are a rare breed<br />2) Guns... full confession. I grew up with hunters, and I am in the process of getting my firearm license. I love shooting (targets, not living things, though I have no problem with hunters who hunt for food).

The rifles can not be used for hunting; they are for killing people. Anyone who says the rifles are needed for "protection" is living in a fantasy world. I know some of these people personally and shake my head at their logic.

These questions don't sound like overthinking to me, and some of them are not small things. I personally don't mind purling, don't own a gun, and am so with you in questioning celebrity.
