I’m so glad that guy followed up to let you know that he was genuinely concerned. I’ve often wondered how often dermatologists are out and about and see someone with something concerning, and how often they try to talk to that person and let them know.

Oh god, fucking Zeke the plumber. I knew he was from Salute your Shorts as soon as lolanuvola said it, because I was too much of a scaredy cat to eeeeeeever watch are you afraid of the dark, and I made my mom check under my bed for Zeke the Plumber every night for a *year* after watching that episode of salute your…

Have any die-hard Chernobyl fans attempted a wedding/photoshoot at the site of their favorite show yet? That will be peak #diditforthegram

It’s definitely already started. My 2016 honda had an infotainment center issue that required a restart. Not a software update, literally just a hard reset, like you’d do to your phone if it was glitchy. $129, and no it isn’t something I can do myself from home.

It’s also a grocery store

This is only barely related, but when I was little, I inadvertently got a kid in my pre-school kicked out because he was jokingly threatening to cut my nose off, so I put my hands up in front of my nose to “protect” it from him, and he accidentally cut the web between my thumb and pointer finger. With those shitty kid…

As a game, it’s shockingly addicting. And they’ve done a pretty good job (better than a lot) of having a great deal of body diversity and skin tones, which is kind of cool.

Ugh, there’s a left turn that I have to make on my commute home where the oncoming traffic can be pretty heavy. There’s a light however, a few hundred feet behind me, and because the traffic is heavy, when the light is red, the line of cars waiting will back up to the point where I’m making my left. Nothing makes me…

Yeah, I tend to avoid trailers for things I want to see like the plague. I want to experience the whole thing fresh. 

It did work, and it’s amazing

I think she actually makes that point in the movie, that her height is something she has no control over. I think the movie is overall quite shallow, but the first two thirds at least seem to be a pretty accurate depiction of how much it would suck to be that tall as a 16 year old girl, so there may be some catharsis…

Agreed. I thought the review was pretty accurate, but how they got to that conclusion wasn’t. We didn’t have any girls that were that tall in my school, but if we had, I’m sure that it would have been pointed out repeatedly. Hell, I’m 5'0", which is short, but not like, statistically anomalous or anything, and I got…

My issue wasn’t even with him getting drunk with power over now being popular (though I agree that’s a tad unrealistic) my issue was with the idea that he’d be ugly in Sweden. I know as a country they’re known to be tall, blonde, and beautiful, but no way that even in a country that is more attractive than average is…

I watched this last night. I disagree with the assesment that the bullying she receives is unrealistic. In fact, the part I found more unrealistic was that once she decided to wear makeup and do her hair, that one of the popular boys who had previously mocked her was like “actually never mind, I’m into it”, pretty…

Social media was just starting to become a thing when I was a teenager. I recently found and read through my old xanga posts from when I was a Freshman/Sophomore in high school, and holy CRAP am I glad that that part of my life is on a largely defunct and completely text based platform. Even some of my posts on…

Not that I know of, but we didn’t have a ton of mutual friends. 

Oh cool, that’s good to know.  Thanks!

yeah, I reached out a few times. The final time to ask her if I’d done anything to upset her that I could apologize for or make amends or anything. She just never responded.

I really want to see a friendship version of this. I’ve been ghosted while dating before, but it’s normally like, after two dates I never heard back type stuff where you can just shrug it off. But my best friend from college ghosted me, and it bothers me to this day. we hugged at graduation, cried a bit, she left…
