I hate Calilou

While I may not be a mother I am an Aunt of five and six year old girls,they visit during the summer ,so I am subjected to Calilou for reasons I can not fathom they love this show ,me I hate this show, Calilou is whiny and annoying he gets everything by whining .I should be grateful the girls haven't picked up on Calilou's annoying habit of whining,they know if they do they get a timeout . An example of what a little brat Calilou is would be this ,Calilou's mother is trying to read a book,meanwhile Calilou is banging on his drum upstairs loudly , " Mommy" is downstairs and she could hear him.she calls him downstairs and nicely,sweetly asks him to keep it down , then Calilou demands a story and doesn't want to wait ,never mind that his mother is occupied and maybe she doesn't want to cater to the brat's every whim, but she does of course ,she always does everyone does it's like this kid thinks he's entitled to get whatever he wants by whining for it . Also Calilou never says please or thank you it's always " I want this" " I want that" in a very whiny grating annoying voice . I would ban this show ,but they hardly watch tv while they're here and I just put in my headphones and I don't have to hear him anymore ,plus they're usually doing something else like playing with their leapfrogs or their toys and it's more of a background noise ,as opposed to the actually sitting and watching mesmerized like some shows

Cashing out for Crowdtap

As a member of Crowdtap I would like to give other Crowdtappers advice on cashing out . I know lots of people like to have their points grow and then cash out , but the problem with that is that may not be best.thing to do , they do run out of Amazon cards quite frequently because that is what everyone chooses ,so say you have about 200,000 points and you decide one day you want to cash out ,problem is they've run out just two days ago, so now you have to wait until they restock . However if you had cashed out when the cards you could have avoided all of that . Do not wait to cash out ,better to get a lot of giftcards and add them up ,then to try to get one "big" giftcards . I like getting the $10 giftcards, I cash out at 21,000 points , the reason for this is simple 21,000 points gives me 1,000 points leftover after I cash out and depending on how much activity I have mainly webshares doesn't take me long to reach my goal, so I could cash out again and add more giftcards . So if you only have enough for a $ 10 gift card take it and keep it until you can get a another $ 10 that way you never have to worry when they run out giftcard and let them add up
