Hey friend, American here. We all feel like that inside, at least a little. I was a huge introvert, and still am to an extent. However, I’ve been forced into pretending to be an extrovert for ages. I need a bunch of time to myself after things like business travel though, where I have to be the other me for long periods.

The only advice I have is: try it out. It sucks at first, but it gets easier. Sometimes you might actually enjoy it.

If you ever need help or want to practice in a judgement-free space, hit me up. My German isn’t so great but I’ve spent some time there.

Fuck, I want to see dethklok!!

Gets me every time too.

Depends on the van. Were you offered candy?

If the bright color is white, you’re probably ok. I say probably because shit is extra weird right now. As I understand it, the darker colors risk being “deported” and by deported, I mean being sent to concentration camps in other countries.

I never would have thought the above sentences would be typed by someone in a rational frame of mind, but… here we are in 2025.

As delightful as you sound, my advice would be to not visit us. We’re in a dark place. While I’d love to meet people like you, we don’t deserve it right now. Shame on us.

Edit: typing is hard

Yeah, I remember a bunch of these posts as well. OP, by all means follow the advice of the people below relating to this issue, but I think you should also take an introspective look at yourself and ask how you can be a better coworker. I don’t think you’ll ever be happy until you do.

If I breathe more, would I lose more weight?

Wait, I can put physical objects there? I’ve been storing all of my stuff in the real world like a dummy.

lol

Just a thought but if it’s like this, it’s some anime porn thing that people do now. It’s not gender or sexual orientation specific though. I think they usually cross their eyes as well.

I’m too old to understand it. Or to be cool anymore.

I pretty much did the same when my dad kept trying to push his politics on me during the last trump presidency. It sucks, but at the end of the day I’m a happier person. Hope they get their shit figured out.

Hope you find the same.

❤️

I find it odd that this is an obvious, professionally shot, studio photo…. and this is the best angle they could find.

Not OP, but I googled it. 😅

I didn’t.

George is rad!

She looks amazing. I’m so fucking sorry, but I hope you’ve enjoyed the time you’ve had with her. Hugs.

This made me profoundly uncomfortable while I was trying to figure it out. Well done!

I lay down to pee.

Happened to me a while back. In my case, they had also gotten access to my google password manager and were trying to cover their tracks in funneling money from my bank account and purchasing phones on several platforms (google store, eBay, etc).

Absolutely change your banking passwords, let them know that there could be potential fraud, and start looking for purchases on every platform you might have saved financial information on.

Best of luck.
