If you approach someone you don't know, for whatever reason (trying to sign someone for a charity in the street, asking for directions, starting a conversation in the supermarket, anything really) the person you approach is well within their right to be a rude rear end in a top hat to you, and you don't get to complain when they tell you to gently caress off. That's the risk you take when you decide to interrupt and talk to someone you don't know. You have no idea the day they've had, and there's literally no obligation for them to be nice to you. People should be allowed to be miserable without judgement is what I'm getting that, without having to pretend to be cheerful for other people's benefit

Citizens (or authorized guests) are permitted to approach other citizens at a frequency not to exceed once every 90 minutes and ask a single Level-1 question. A citizen must either answer honestly or politely decline to answer said question. If the asker probes further for a second question, or the question is not a sanctioned level-1 question, the askee may respond as they feel appropriate.

A level-1 question is defined as any shallow, surface-level inquiry which directly aids in commercial or pro-social activity. Examples of such a question include but are not limited to:

-Where is the bathroom?
-Do you have the time?
-How can I find <x>?
-Lovely weather, isn't it?


Prohibited questions include, but are not limited to:
-How about those <sports teams>?
-catcalling or other forms of harassment
-solicitation of goods or services
-the forbidden obelisk

I like having spiders around for some reason. I almost never squash them or move them. As long as it's not something I know is super poisonous or like, an infestation they are welcome to hang out in my abode.

There has been a big push on the internet supporting having as many spiders in your home as you can, and I'm not falling for it, spider lobbyists. It's impressive that you learned to type and all, but the only way you're getting a free ride in my place is if you do it by stealth.

Like imagine a guest comes in and sees a spider in every room. If they aren't freaked out by them (they will be), and you say the standard line that they control the population of worse bugs, they'll just assume your place is infested with dangerous insects or roaches, because the spiders have got to be eating something. It's not a good look.

I don't mind having huntsmans in my house because they don't make webs and they'll kill the kinds of spiders that do - daddies long-legs, for example, which I hate to see around because there's going to be web everywhere.

I still usually don't bother killing or moving them though.

Spiders can hang out near the entrances to my home but once they’re in my business they’re getting smashed. I stayed for a summer at a friend’s old rear end house that’s near the woods and has windows open all the time because they don’t have central air. It’s full of huge spiders and I was on edge basically all the time.

Centipedes prevent insects too but I’d rather be dealing with ants than ever have to loving look at one of those nightmare creatures.

Spiders are fine unless they’re brown recluses or in my bed. The ones that show up in clean homes are totally chill. My childhood home had recluses and one got my mom. Ouch!

A stranger asking for medical assistance is the only acceptable reason for them to approach.

Drinking nothing but juice for a single day is not a "cleanse". I thought this person was going to do one of those 3 week things which, while full of bullshit pseudoscience and fake promises and health risks, at least required dedication. But no, I was spammed all day about this person's juices and after like 12 hours, it was over, and she wants pats on the back for "making it through".

Summary PHUO: If you encourage a friend blindly with "you rock! you're awesome!" platitudes, you are doing more harm than good. Actually do something of note and then maybe ask for your accolades. Waking up and consuming water and nutrients to sustain you through the day is not an achievement to brag about.

What is an achievement to brag about? What counts for that? Anyway, I don't participate in social media much but the whole point, as I understand it, is to gather likes and use that to replace meaning in your life. So if you get enough likes on your weak rear end update, you won and get to be happy for another day.

Well I think there's a distinction between a post saying "I have decided that I am going to start preparing for a half marathon next year" and "I am 6 months in to preparing for the half marathon, here's where i'm at". One day of a "juice cleanse" (one day out of one day), even if you believe that "juice cleanses" actually do anything, isn't anything. It's the equivalent of going to the gym on new years day and posting about how you "made your fat cry". Get back to me when you've made demonstrable progress.

Ewan MacGregor and Danny Devito’s accents in Big Fish ruin it.

Devito I can forgive, especially since “Danny Devito doing a terrible southern accent” fits his character as a showman huckster/werewolf, but MacGregor no. British actors are usually really good at doing american accents. Especially compared to the reverse. I know he can do better.

I wouldn't say I'm "mad" exactly, but they really are god-awful movies. Like the scene where they've broken up and she's screaming at night all the time and the baseball scene, even if i'm alone I feel compelled to change the channel just to make sure nobody catches me watching it. No other movie makes me feel so uncomfortable.

The part about thinking they can't be in other movies is dumb though I agree. Specifically with batman, I don't know why people give a poo poo who the actor is considering the character is in a near-full face mask most of the time. Anything has got to be better than the goofy christian bale weird voice having batman. They could even bring back George Clooney or ben affleck and it'd be an improvement over christian.

The only one I've seen was Breaking Dawn Part 1, but it was really good. I meant to watch the others as well to see if they're also good, but I never get around to watching movies. I'll go "this TV show is 40 minutes - great, I'll watch six episodes" but for some reason a single 90-minute movie puts me off.

There's a marathon of them on I think TBS/FX in a couple hours if you want to suffer through them. I'm probably going to put them on at some point just because when it comes to TV I tend to be drawn to things I actively dislike.
