I’ve always wondered this, IT workers always say they can see all of your links, but do you actually do that? IT always seems so busy that I can’t imagine they have time to just go around watching people work. **hurriedly checks browser history**

Worst: Flying to Maui for six hours while 3 triplets cried. The mom tried rocking them in the aisle and they kicked me in the head over and over. On the way back, a woman in front of me got more and more drunk and started shouting about politics and religion and staggering to the bathroom every couple of minutes.

Best:

They almost always end up looking like a prepubescent boy.

Haha yes, that’s a big issue. I just don’t understand how someone can look at the size of the page, look at how much text they want, and see that the two don’t fit. Another one that irks me is when they say “Can you just ‘design’ this a bit more?”. Oh, so you mean add a bunch of unnecessary crap to it. Got it.

I’m planning on getting a house as soon as I can. Where I live — in the Seattle area — rent is insane. Housing prices are insane too, but they’re at least relatively stable compared to the spikes in rent that we can have.

I’m a graphic/web designer. Most people think of all graphic designers as some form of artist, but most of what I do is really more of a science. Yes, I do create visuals, but those are often based on demographic research, competitive research, marketing goals and user experience goals. I’m a creative problem solver,

Unless you’re into them being “used”.

I texted a girl that I was friends with asking her to bring me a pizza for us to share and for her to show up naked. 7 years later, we’re happily married.

I’m not sure how it works for OP, but for me, my laziness to prepare food or sit in traffic outweighs my hunger.

Thanks for your response. Although I was being sarcastic as you said, I’ve definitely been going back and forth about the kids idea. On one hand, I’d definitely like to have a kid, but I also see a lot of negatives with it that I wouldn’t want to deal with, both for myself and my kid. I see and have experienced a lot

Haha, that depends on how long your kid takes finding the right major! Maybe it could be exponential! :)

Yeah, loans are the worst. Luckily, my family’s relative poorness allowed me to get the max amount of grants, and then I was able to work nearly full time through college to pay for the rest so I don’t have loans. But my fiancee has a ton of student loans. Like you though, we were both lucky enough to get good jobs

That’s certainly true, my cousin is on his eighth year in college after trying several different programs. Over $150,000 in debt, he’s screwed. It’s unfortunate that people end up in this kind of situation.

Lol, as soon as I wrote that, I knew someone would respond to that phrasing. And that’s totally a fair point, I was painting in broad strokes to prove a point. It’s incredibly difficult to choose what you want to do for the rest of your life. I know some people who changed majors successfully after realizing their

Haha, it depends on what you think is best for the future of our world. I think having less humans here would really be better off for nearly everything else on the planet. Also, I’m sure humanity will do just fine killing itself off, without factoring my choice of whether to have kids or not.


I keep looking at those savings numbers and thinking it would be so much better to skip having a kid and save that money for worldly adventure. At least I have a couple of years to decide, right?

Bear in mind this only really works if your kid can get through in 4 years, and with the degree they first went for. If their program is longer, or they screw around and pick different majors throughout, the cost could be exponentially bigger. I was lucky to pick something I liked and stuck with it.

No, just a big angry cat. :)

I was flying my tiny nano drone at my dad’s house the other day. While trying to show off how high it could fly, it got caught in a cross breeze, and crash landed in his old-lady next door neighbor’s yard. We had to sneak in to her yard and grab the drone before anyone saw. Felt just like a kid again.

I like your user name :)
