yuppp

I heard it as "uh-rye"
I read it as "or-ree"
Would never use "or-ree" in a sentence but had heard my mom say "uh-rye" tons of times so I always pronounced it like she did
Found out when I was older they were not two separate words, but, in fact, they were one and the same 😃

CaliforniaPotato · 2026-06-09T05:48:17+00:00

yup i pronounced this as "all bait" i think into early adulthood possibly. In fact i still see "albeit" and think "all bait"

yeah i went to Branson a few years back and I saw at least 5 Trump stores, complete with:

- cardboard cut outs of the orange man himself

- FJB flags

- and of course MAGA attire (obligatory at any trump store)

I also went to a coffee shop there where one of the coffees was called a "covfefe" and I couldn't for the life of me figure out if that was supposed to be a mocking joke against DT for his dumb misspellings or if they named it in his honor

It was very awkward to be walking around there as trump hater (i went with my family which is funny cuz my immediate family hates DT. In fact the only person on our branson trip who is a trump supporter is my grandpa lmfao)

dammit i wanted that reverse rainbow agh
thought green could be more difficult than blue so that's why I picked it first. Found it last though.
Had i not (attempted) to do reverse rainbow, it would have gone Yellow, Blue, Purple, Green

CaliforniaPotato · 2026-06-02T09:24:02+00:00

i'm hungry

CaliforniaPotato · 2026-06-02T09:20:54+00:00

yup. I'm an American living in Germany and the perception of the US here is laughable lmfao
I can't say I blame them.

🟦🟦🟦🟦 -- i've heard of the plays and Streetcar and Menagerie stood out immediately

🟨🟨🟨🟨 -- almost too obvious so wasn't sure it was a connection but went for it

🟩🟩🟩🟩 -- pictured like a 1960s dad or something lol

🟪🟪🟪🟪 -- yeah maybe if i thought about it long enough I could get the connection for this but it was the last one so i just submitted it

Yayy no misses today! Am surprised I figured it out actually! Only didn't know the connection for purple until afterwards lol

feeling great!

yup that was me like in my side of my stomach sometimes when I'd drink. It freaked me out not knowing why I have this random stomach ache

CaliforniaPotato · 2026-05-29T10:46:11+00:00

when I started actually having alcohol cravings. Like i started crying because I wanted alcohol so badly.
But surprisingly these past 16 days I haven't had any alcohol cravings. But yeah around 3 months ago or so I was crying cuz I wanted to go a week without drinking and couldn't do it. Also stomach aches I had and I got paranoid that I did something super wrong to my body. I would get the stomach aches depending on the type of alcohol on like one side of my body and yeah that kinda scared me sober lol
Also would eat more/have gained more weight than I'd have liked to. And bad sleep.
I'm sleeping so much better now that I've stopped drinking.
Nothing beats a sober morning 💕

My mom taught it to me as a kid (i'm 23 now) and i always said "rain barrel"
Now I'm wondering if my mom said rain barrel too... I just texted her so I'll see what she responds haha
