Being a straight, white man /s

I hate that my immediate next thought is, “I should get TWO sandwiches!”

This is actually a pretty good idea. And I bet the sandwich is the least worst part of the meal as far as nutrition and satiation.

Cool superpower!

This is so cool! Is it like you’re imagining the text, or can you literally see it?

What about words that are muffled or too quiet?

How does it feel/look like when you’re in an area that’s packed with people? (Thank you in advance!)

Totally. And then comes the dependency on laxatives… They’re constipated without them, which causes hemorrhoids.

74% of people surveyed didn’t select “having children”

There’s definitely a guy in the building across from me that stares. I don’t think he’s a creep – he’s probably just bored and looking around – but his face is pressed up against the window so he stands out. I’ve made eye contact a few times, ugh.

Agreed! They’re always filthy/dusty and annoying to clean.

And even though no one gives a shit enough to stare, it’s hard not to feel… watched.

Great idea re: having a number that only certain people know to use to get transferred directly!!

There’s a Simpson’s clip for everything

Can I get this for my personal number? 🤔

I’ve absolutely seen a pet look at someone with, “love in its eyes”. That content squint and gaze. My heart! 🥹

Fun fact: that comic originated on Sept 19, 2014. Almost exactly 10 years ago!

There are a lot of potential reasons, and the fact that you’re curious is commendable.

While there’s no way for a stranger on the Internet to know, anecdotally I tend to push people away for a variety of reasons… maybe you’ll relate to some of them:

• I really enjoy being alone

• Caring about other people is a lot of work

• If someone gets to know all of my quirks, they might reject me

• I don’t like feeling vulnerable

• I’m worried I’ll be jealous

I’m sure there are other reasons, but that’s triggered my self-loathing enough for one night.

This.

Additionally, there are lazy people in every company/industry. Many of whom earn more than the average person. Oftentimes, life just isn’t fair.

First 30 mins is just digging holes to spend the nights in until you find some sheep.

The longest friend I’ve ever had is someone I met in school that lives on the other side of the continent… I haven’t seen them in maybe half a lifetime now.

Buy we send each other funny stuff and random updates. I don’t know why it has lasted, other than that there are low expectations and it’s mutual. It’s actually really refreshing.

I met a few good friends by joining a local, free run club in the area. We were all the slow people at the back 😂

I moved and the friendships didn’t last, but I think that’s just part of life. The older I get, the more stars need to align to maintain relationships.
