Crow Jane posted:I had a high school friend who lied constantly, but like... benevolently? She had overheard the boy you liked talking about you! This does not sound benevolent at all. It sounds like someone trying to trick you into making a jackass out of yourself.

Horror_Business posted:THAT TIME I ALMOST STABBED A COUPLE REDNECKS WHO SAW MY HEADWRAP AND ASSUMED I WAS MUSLIM I rarely feel secondhand embarrassment as strong as what I felt when I read this. I think it's because I have a personal rule to always believe people of color when they talk about racist incidents they've experienced, and so I want to be on her side on principle, but I completely can't.

lemon-lyme disease posted:Cursory search indicates you still need to have made some sort of cultural or social impact in order to be considered. I think they want several links, media appearances, etc. I happened upon the Twitter page of a professional Halo player and he was verified, so I'm not totally sure what the standard is these days.

bean_shadow posted:Do any childfree women here get constant poo poo for not wanting kids? Though I do catch poo poo for it, it's nowhere near constant, but I'm also single and living in New York City so being a childless woman is a lot more socially acceptable here. quote:How often does this happen to the average childfree woman? I can't really speak for everyone, but it comes up enough that it can get kind of annoying. I can't imagine how much more poo poo people get when they're in committed relationships with no intention of having children.

Byzantine posted:"Gee, Byzantine, why don't you wanna have kids?" Catberry posted:No because I really don't want kids and any interaction with kids just reaffirms it. Morality has nothing to do with it. I like the cut of your jib. I feel like every time I get on the train, another of my eggs shrivels up.

Samizdata posted:I suspect, for a lot of kids, it is because they can. They're learning about the universe and their place in it. Yelling makes a sound THEY made, and people RESPOND! It seems likely that they're also just exercising their vocal cords a lot of the time. Still annoying as gently caress, whether or not it makes logical/evolutionary sense.

EmmyOk posted:My most recalled memories are the incredibly embarrassing things I did in my teens that haunt me every moment awake or not so I'm glad they're mainly false. Can't believe mam made me wear those shoes to that disco... Unfortunately I wrote everything down in diaries from the time I was 7 until I was about 19, so my worst memories probably really happened. On the bright side, my best ones probably did too. chitoryu12 posted:In 11th grade, there was a girl in Drama Club who pissed off virtually everyone (including all of her existing friends) through really lovely behavior. She decided that the appropriate way to deal with this was to dramatically fall, lightly knock her head on the ground, and wake up claiming total amnesia of the entirety of high school. This sounds absolutely hilarious. I was in drama club for two years of middle school and all four years of high school, and unfortunately either everyone was super normal or we were all just equally weird.

TheKennedys posted:Because I wrote it all down, I can't forget it even if I want to, but I tended towards at least mild exaggeration and incredible arrogance for a lot of it, so I'm not actually positive sometimes what actually happened underneath Younger TK's rewriting of history to make herself look better. I actually refused to write things down if I couldn't remember them in excruciating detail. As a result, I have a lot of brief nearly-verbatim transcripts of conversations in which I'm clearly getting owned, but I didn't realize until I read it back years later.

Bertrand Hustle posted:Could have ended it there. Achewood has had like three chuckle-worthy jokes in it's entire run. The strip with Lil Nephew sagging his pants so low that he had belted individual pants onto each of his legs still gives me uncontrollable giggles. Achewood is awesome (or was at least awesome in the mid-late '00s).

Nth Doctor posted:I have a colleague who was forcibly corrected to write with his right hand back in grade school in the 70’s, and as a result, holds his pen in an unusual grip. What's weirder, though, is he uses his left hand on his computer mouse! I've been right-handed from birth, but I started using a mouse lefty when I had a tech support job where my desk was positioned in such a way that it was more comfortable to use a mouse on my left side. No button-swapping though.

The last That Girl I encountered was in the early 2010s, when we were both in our early-mid 20s. She had a fake Norwegian last name and every member of every northern European band was in love with her. Every time I went to a show and ran into the band outside or something, I'd ask them if they knew her, and they invariably said no. When I told them that she told me they were in love with her, they'd just laugh. I don't remember all the details because she randomly disappeared out of my life shortly afterward and none of my friends ever had contact with her again. If I didn't have pictures of her, I would have assumed that she was some weird fever dream. edit: Fleta Mcgurn posted:Most of the weird stuff she says is easily disproved by Google and she is an extremely wealthy and successful person, so we're really not sure where this behavior comes from. To be honest, it sounds like she's bored. YeahTubaMike has a new favorite as of 17:36 on Sep 9, 2020 |

Serperoth posted:Honestly I have no reason to doubt the story as a whole, an office having two cats and some miscommunication, plus adopting them. Yeah, a place having two adorable cats -- one dumb, and one smart (or at least non-dumb) -- makes sense, but I can't imagine a universe in which Pam isn't a complete fabrication.
