+1 your mom is cool. You’d better call her!

Wait, but why does that work?!

That’s cool - Weird Al is awesome.

That sounds delicious and also dangerous.

As a girl, this reads like positive emotion that makes her feel embarrassed or guilty. Is she in a relationship with someone else? Maybe she’s fighting something she feels towards you.

Omg I have one. Sara Lee chocolate gateaux. It was this triple layer cake of delight, and my parents would buy it for every party back in the 90s. This was before chocolate got shit, so it was alllllll of the good stuff. Probably some cocaine in there too, who knows. I fucking miss that cake.

How did the prize work? Could you just waltz up and get free ices whenever you wanted?

My name is Helen. I hated that there were no good nicknames for it (ugh, Helly…) but I love my name. Mentioned this to a friend who was like “you could use other parts of the name for a nickname…” and suggested Lenny. As a woman on the internet, having a gender ambiguous username is very beneficial, so I adopted it, and I absolutely love it. I added extra ns because then it’d look like bad kerning Lemmy.

It’s me, hi, I have negative views of health insurance companies, it’s me.

My husband once said to me, “this is a terrible thing to say, and I don’t want you to feel bad, but you do seem like the type who might shake a baby” - I was sterilized by then so it was funny vs insulting.

I do not have kids. I got sterilized (had my fallopian tubes removed) in my mid 30s. I never really felt the urge to have them, and the idea of having them became more and more of an icky thought. I am a sleepy person who wakes up at noon on weekends. I’m messy and forget the laundry in the machine. I’m self centered and like to spend what I earn on me, or choose when I feel like gifting and giving to others. I’m picky, I like to find things exactly how I left them, and I don’t like sharing with people who aren’t my husband. I’m not a bad person, I just understand my behaviors and realize that I don’t really have a responsibility to change as long as I’m child free. Add to that the fact that I have so many hobbies, a close knit group of friends, and a bunch of pets - I never feel bored or lonely and I know it’ll only get better with age. Kids just never factored in.

A kiss and a coffee from my husband before he leaves for work. Best part of my day <3

I fell off an electric scooter and broke my wrist, I have a titanium plate in there now.

Sanuks are SO COMFY! I’ve definitely gone to the store, looked down, and realized I’m still wearing my slippers. I get through a pair o dice each summer.

Ohhhh god I would do the same. I can rationalize my fear enough to use pools now, but the actual terror is still present deep in my animal brain.

I was freaked out by pool drains, lights, and jet holes, basically anything other than the water and tile. I’d have nightmares about them. Loved swimming, but I’d panic as I got to the deep end, and I couldn’t put my feet down on the floor without checking what was beneath me. I couldn’t even look at them.

Houses typically include the appliances, so unless you buy from one of those rare boomer types that filed everything away, you probably don’t have it. I guess you could search it online, now I’m typing this out…

Bits and bobs drawer. Yep

Omg yes. So much technicality too. Like, I just put a tampon in, these things are expensive.

Done, sorry. Btw how are your shits?
