Commented "Where's "None" as an option? I've seen this question elsewhere and it's troubling that it's always a choice between answers that assume ANY use of social media! I and my family members have zero social media accounts. Not so self absorbed to share I won a 10K marathon or ate 15 muffins for breakfast"

Commented "I've seen 44 productions on Broadway since 1976, not counting multiple viewings of the same show (e.g. eight performances of Angela Lansbury & Len Cariou in Sweeney Todd counted as 1 show) and not counting what's called Broadway in Chicago or performances in London. Dream play would've been Brando."

Commented "Heck no! I've rebalanced which meats though, by eating more chicken and pork, and eating steak only twive a week. I feel much better when I eat lots of meat and lean red meat like Porterhouse steak is scrumptious!!"

Commented "I don't hesitate calling for factory service. While I'm pretty handy, today's appliances are more computer than mechanical. Factory service ensures it will be fixed correctly with approved parts. I love using handymen, but not for appliance repair."

Commented "I still prefer the luxurious screen real estate of my desktop PC with a 40" screen. Using limited-function mobile sites even on my 6.4" "large" smartphone is maddening. I like room to spread out with lots of open windows for comparing options!"

Commented "Holiday travel has been better than ever. While most people have been staying home, I've been enjoying fewer lines, more seat options, and no waiting. It's like the VIP treatment with fewer travelers to compete with! Sshh...don't tell everybody!"

Commented "Not so bad? Where's the option to vote, I love it!? I adore fruit cake and certainly prefer a moist fruit cake to 99% of people over-baked, hard, crumbly holiday cookies. Moist over dry any day!"

Commented "Absolutely! Especially items I'll never use like candles, punch bowls, and nobelty gifts. I have more than enough "stuff.""

Commented "Best quality of life splurge: hire a cleaning service for every other week. I still have to pickup and clean some things, but the leg up from having a bi-weekly service buys your life back. And, this is coming from a guy who really likes to clean!!"

Do you clean your home or have a hired cleaner do it?

Commented "I prefer making popcorn on the stove in a pan with oil. So much better than microwave! While I don't put butter on it, I do sprinkle a combo of lemon pepper, basil, and dill, with a little bit of oregano and chili powder. Scrumptious!!"

While movie-watching, do you prefer your popcorn buttered or plain?
