I can’t watch Young Frankenstein because in the middle of the movie (I was watching it on a laptop in the student center of the university I was at) a girl came up to me and told me how her cousin raped her repeatedly. The worst part is that she joined the clubs I was in and trauma dumped on everyone all the time.
My goldendoodle puppy doesn’t ever want to come back inside. I told my beagle “go get your sister” as I tried rounding up the puppy. Now when I say “go get your sister” the beagle runs to the puppy and baits her into chasing him into the house.
I had a cat that would run away if you said, “what do you think you’re doing, sir?”
Most of the time he was actually getting himself into trouble. His fave thing was stealing slices of pizza, taking them to my room, eating all the cheese, then leaving the soggy, saucy crust right in the doorway. I stepped on it every goddamn time. Idek how he stole the pizza to begin with!
My beagle gets really upset when I tell him there are no more treats. I also have to keep anything resembling people food from him because he resource guards it. He’s the sweetest boi other than that lol
My mom’s dog will hold your hand when she wants something or is in trouble. She knows we think the gesture is adorable, so she tries to manipulate us with it. It never works lol.
My area was severely flooded after getting 5 inches of rain in 2 days. So many roads fell apart and homes were wrecked. My house was fine, thankfully, other than some of my gutter downspouts falling off in the crazy wind.
The upside of having to wear a uniform to work is not worrying about having a “good” outfit for the office. We all wear the same shit every day and it’s great. When I am at home or when I go out, I worry about comfort more than style.
We have cozy company sweaters if we get cold, which I always am lol. We even got a thing to put on the AC vent to redirect the air flow so it wouldn’t blow on me all the time.
Didn’t the first pilgrims who came to what is now the USA do it because they wanted to practice their specific flavor of Christianity and England was like “nah bro, that’s crazy”? Or did my teachers in school lie to me? I know the country itself wasn’t founded on religion.
Yeah, the timeline between Columbus and the Constitution was huge. I know that a lot of the founding fathers were deists as well, which is fascinating. I wish some of their visions for the country were still a thing.
Same. But I’m also for gun control as well. Like, don’t ban them outright, just make them a whole hell of a lot harder to get. Like really hard. I live in an area that has bobcats, bears, and the occasional mountain lion. I own a pistol to protect myself and my critters (a flock of ducks and two dogs) in case of an attack. I don’t want to use it and it won’t kill a big predator like a bear or mountain lion, but I only want it to scare the animals off if they get too close. It hasn’t left the locked drawer I keep it in since I bought my house in 2022. I’m hoping it’ll never have to come out.
I was a master at getting free food in college. I’d just walk into events, sometimes ones I wasn’t invited to, grab food, and leave. Oftentimes my college wouldn’t post bouncers at every entrance to the buildings, so getting into private stuff was ridiculously easy.
There was also a time where going to the career fair would get me extra credit for a class. You had to pay to get in, though. I just walked in the side door, got the proof that I was there, took some food they were serving, and left.
You can do so much if you act like you belong.
10/10 would recommend doing this as much as possible.
