I'm from Florida and my driver's ed instructor didn't even bother teaching us about parallel parking because "you'll never have to do it". It's not on the driver's test so that seems fair. There really isn't much parallel parking in most of the cities in FL I've lived in, and I live in a city in NC now that has some…

My cat always goes insane when I eat Chef-Boyardee Spaghetti. I don't know what's in it but it drives her mad. She's so sweet most of the time, but she'll bite me, then run away when I scream, then come back trying to sniff the bite and just like "Mom are you okay? What happened mom?"

Mine is the same way and it's saved me. I was suicidal in March and now I'm doing okay, but still need weekly visits. As it is, it's still something like 5% of my annual income just for the copays, but well worth it. Can't imagine where I'd be if there was a cap or if it was higher than $25.

Agreed. I consider myself Italian American because my grandmother came from there and was the one who watched me while both of my parents worked, shared a bedroom with me from when I was 10 until she died, etc. I was heavily influenced by her and although I unfortunately don't know all that much about anyone on her…

I'm not really interested in shipping straight characters into homoerotic relationships, but gay porn has always been much sexier than straight porn to me. The guys in straight porn typically seem to be below average in looks and the focus is mostly on the woman's body, which is not at all what I'm interested in.…

Yes, we both are. We used to play Magic a lot but when he worked at the convenience store he couldn't make it to night events, and now that he's seasonal/part-time it's not in the budget anymore. I think it's a great idea overall though, and hope it's something we can pick up again soon-ish!

Oh, at one point Krzyzewski was talking to like everyone, was addressing undergrads and was like "Oh, and grad students, although you aren't here as long as the undergrads" and like the entire grad student section booed him because...umm...PhD's take much longer than undergrad... and he was just like "Well, sorry."…

Yeah, I'm fine with not bringing him to parties like that anymore if that's his preference. I'm not much of a social butterfly myself, but I like going on occasion to things like that and I don't want to force him if it's something that's going to stress him out further. He's expressed frustration in himself for this…

Thanks for the suggestion. I have had social anxiety myself for a long time, but he says I still do much better than he does. He expressed that whenever one was supposed to learn how to hold conversations and interact with people when no objective was present, he must not have learned it and feels like he's not…

When we were in college we had friends we hung out with together. That's where we met, but he says he never made any of those friends on his own and always met them through clubs or other friends. He met me through a class and we started hanging out through my high school best friend who lived in the same dorm as him.

Brought my husband to a Halloween party my grad student organization was hosting. It was awkward because I didn't know as many people there well as I thought I would, and he's become increasingly socially awkward and became annoyed quickly. So we left the party after an hour and then when we got home, he chugged like…

Yeah, I guess that makes sense, and I don't wear them every day anymore like I did in high school and middle school. My mom wears cartoon-y shirts on occasion, too, but she teaches elementary school so I guess that makes sense as well.

Umm...I wear Invader Zim and Pokemon shirts still sometimes. I'm in a lab most of the time, though, so no one really cares. I just throw on something nice that morning if I have to teach or give a presentation, but otherwise, who cares? I imagine it will probably have to change once I'm done with the PhD but all the…

I've done vampire dressed as pirate before. Had a fake parrot and pirate hat and fangs with fake blood on them. I wore it to campus and my calculus professor stopped mid-lecture, looked at me, and said "You're scaring me."

My parents' rule on screen time when we (3 kids) were growing up was that if we wanted to use the computer for things other than homework, watch TV, or play video games, we needed to set a timer for an hour. At the end of that hour, we needed to take at least a fifteen minute break and let another sibling take over…

My brother and father-in-law are both named Michael. My husband is named Jacob. Don't know what we would name a son, but I've picked out Catherine after my maternal great-grandmother for a girl.

More often they tried to have someone be Jen, someone be Jenny, etc. But yeah...I was towards the end of Jennifer's reign (1990) but still. Oh, and my brothers are named Matthew and Michael. We have a last name that only our direct relatives have though, due to being changed when we immigrated, so I guess they didn't…

I can't sew or anything like that, but for years I've been compiling different articles of clothing from different sources with some accessories and such from the Halloween stores and other places to "make" my own costumes. It's pretty awesome and I've done The Red Death, Baneslayer Angel, a Vampire-Pirate, Inspector…

Mine are the same size, and it's a pain. I'm only 23 and they're perky now but who knows how they'll be in 10 years and if I have kids...probably can't breastfeed, though, my nipples are inverted.

Since the average bra size in America became 34DD. It used to be 34B but it's increased dramatically over the past couple of decades.
