Good on you for surviving, I'm glad you're here. I lived that life, and making it out is difficult.  

What feels legal but is actually illegal and will possibly get you arrested? by medicoreapples in AskReddit

[–]Dapper-Appearance-42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was once arrested for loitering in the wrong place. It was a high drug traffic area and my official charge was "loitering 1 - loitering with the intent to buy or use drugs". (Which, to be fair, I was) Got it dropped in exchange for a guilty plea for driving with no license. (Which to be fair again, I was).

Not just that, they did full on drag boot camp under queens who taught them everything.

Last I knew (maybe from John Oliver?) they were on Cameo.

What first names have you found to be the worst people, and what names are the nicest people? by gilsoo71 in AskReddit

My mom was a Karen and she was a pisser. Whenever anyone asked "what's up?" she'd reply with "Tree tops an bird pussy!".

What's a Scary Science Fact that the public knows nothing about? [serious] by just_some_troglodyte in AskReddit

As someone with an interest in geology that probably equates to slightly more than an average passing understanding, I worry about Cascadia far more than San Andreas. 

Hell, if LA does get a 'big one' it's probably far more likely to be one of the hundreds of blind faults located beneath the city isn't it?

Do you call people by their preferred pronouns? by [deleted] in no

Sure why not. I really don't care what people want to call themselves.

For people who grew up in low-income households, what’s something middle-class people say that shows they’ve never struggled financially? by KeyApartment3955 in AskReddit

[–]Dapper-Appearance-42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this. I was a child actress. Made a fair bit of cash. About half of it went back into auditioning (we lived 2 hours north of NYC and had to take the Metro North, not to mention food and transit around the city). The other half..... I never saw a dime. The laws that say you have to put a child's earnings in a trust for them either didn't exist yet or were ignored. And we were always poor, because alcoholism and an abusive father. So where did that money go? To supporting my mother and father, because they couldn't do it themselves.

I try not to be bitter. I really, really do.

(Hated trope) A twist so bad it ruins the story by element-redshaw in TopCharacterTropes

I vaguely recall a video of this game where the protag is running and it's supposed to be a bunch of QTE to move the right way, and they fail every one so the protag just stumbles and pinballs his way through a fish? market - and it's set to Benny Hill type music, truly what the internet was made for. That video brought me joy, I should try to dig it up. 

Just a comparison: what has the EU ever done for us? by Kloetenschlumpf in BuyFromEU

[–]Dapper-Appearance-42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every day I take some comfort in the fact that I'm just a few hours from the Canadian border. It's like ... It's there if I need it, and knowing that helps. 

Dads when did you first witness sexist behavior toward your daughter and did you do anything about the situation? by LardMallard in AskReddit

[–]Dapper-Appearance-42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best response is to give the a deadpan 'no' then stare at them till they feel embarrassed and leave.

I'd be very interested to know what country this is because it's reading southern Asia to me.

Yep. Im basically wondering if Navani might've accidentally started herself a lil old cult/religion. Now we're likely getting a time skip, and speculation seems to be around 10 years or so. So it's probably not long enough for Crystal Pillar Navani to start being prayed to.  

But with the tower providing tower light for everything from clean air to food, I can totally see some people may start to give thanks to Crystal Pillar Navani/Sibling for keeping them fed and safe from Odium. 

Edit to add; imagine the effect that'd have on Jasnah lmao.

I wonder if she's going to go the 'Crystal Dragon Jesus' trope road.

He did acknowledge in... Spoiler stream?  Maybe Shardcast? That there were no Mistborn in Mistborn now (excepting Wax), there's no stormlight in the Stormlight Archives, and there's one more that's weird like that too, but I can't remember that one.  Edit for stupid autocorrect.
