Soooo….

How many are making New Years resolutions?

Up to three votes per person, because I added the Corbe answer.

Personally, I want to be kinder, more charitable and thinner.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

I want to be more grumpier in 2022.

Back in '86 I resolved to eat 365 pizzas that year.  I succeeded.

No. Mainly because I'm humble enough to understand that we know very little about what the future will be.

Besides, to channel Tom Lehrer, why resolve to do something one day and ignore the other 364? If I want to set a goal to do something, I can do that at any time. And I often do—it leaves me more flexible to what opportunities are there.

And you've made a darn good start!   :bolt:

BTW: I don't need to resolve to do that as it just comes naturally in my case!

To actually be resolute is a far bigger task than the tradition implies. That one will likely fail (as is the trend) necessarily evidences the lack thereof.

Poor Tarder Sauce!  My vet told me back then that feline dwarfism isn't life threatening and they can live a long time, but sadly that was not the case for Tard.  I miss her too.  Believe it or not, I drove through the small town in which she lived many times while we were moving from Phoenix to our present location on the Colorado River.  Morristown, AZ, just east of Wickenburg.

If I were Tard's Mommy, I would give her great thanks every day.  The Grumpy Cat empire netted her millions.

I disclosed my pregnancy with one of my kids to my workmates by telling them that my New Year's Resolution was to gain weight and not show up at work for weeks at a time.   That one was pretty easy to keep, too.  :laugh:

Someone wiser told me that everyone should write a book. You don't have to publish it or even share it but you should write it. It can be called "My Philosophy of Life". You write in it things that are on your mind. When you think of something, write it down. Over time, you can expand on what you wrote.
I have 2 pages!

I resolutely resolve my new years resolutions to dissolve by breaking one and all as soon as they evolved. I find that it saves me any angst over failing to keep them long term.

Too much pizza. Burp.

I put on four pounds from Thanksgiving til now. I really have to loose them. Sigh.

Why are bagels with cream cheese and lox so yummy? And too many carbs?
