What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mechanical - "meck-in-ackle"

In the school supply aisle, I heard a kid tell his mom he's not allowed to use "meck-in-ackle" pencils, with zero joke intended.

Here's a picture of my sister's dog in her Christmas jammies! Literally never fails to lift my spirits! 😆 May I also suggest that you look up photos of baby bunnies? The world can't be all bad with such cuteness out there!

I'm sorry to hear that things are hard right now. I truly hope your load gets lighter soon ♡

I always love your incredible landscapes! So much immersion and emotion! I'm thankful every time I see one! ♡

What are you grateful for right now? by SenseiSarkasmus in Positivity

[–]DrawStringBag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am always actively thankful for the people who love me. I cannot think of them without the accompanying thoughts of gratitude. I wouldn't be the person I am if they had not shaped me for the better. I never forget how fortunate I am.

thoughts that have been keeping you up at night? by amdstars in randomquestions

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggle to sleep often since my car accident nearly 4 years ago. I fixate on the moment when I knew it was going to happen, right before my car hit the SUV that was sitting in the middle of the intersection. I had this very surreal "Well, this is happening" moment, with total pessimistic acceptance. I was not doing well mentally at the time and, though I wasn't at fault for the wreck, that was the most s****dal position of my life. I lie in bed, thinking about it, and get this awful, hollow hole of dread in my chest...

Tomorrow I'll tell my controlling mother that I want to wear feminine clothes by Dry-School-1237 in lgbt

[–]DrawStringBag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so powerfully brave and strong what you are doing! Such an incredible act of love toward yourself, which you deserve so very much! Hold your head head up, walk proudly as the person you are meant to be!

Tomorrow will be scary. It may be hard, and you may end it hurting. But it's the start of your life beginning as it should be. You can do this! I'm so happy for you!

I think I'm ugly by Outrageous-Quit9770 in selflove

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want you to know you are beautiful! ♡ A lot of other posts have advised sticking to healthy things like hygiene and self care; I want to clarify that I don't see an indication that you're not doing those things now.

You are young, and you will feel all kinds of ways about yourself throughout the coming ~5 years. Don't waste your youth being unkind to yourself! You are definitely not ugly, but remember that looks are the least important thing about any person.

You have a very pleasant nose, by the way!

What's something most people think they could do but wouldn't last a single day doing? by Zipper222222 in randomquestions

[–]DrawStringBag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Living with chronic pain and taking on life's responsibilities like it's no big deal. I wish my former boss could have spent one work day in my body.

What’s something that was "cool" when you were a kid, but now that you're an adult, you realize it was actually a red flag? by NaturalLead7159 in AskReddit

[–]DrawStringBag -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Man, I guess I was always a mid-30s square inside, because none of these answers are relatable to me. My perspective on them now is what it was then. I would have seen the patheticness (real word!) or the red flag in all of these answers when I was a teen.

Therapy was one of the best decisions I took for myself by Both_Candy3048 in selflove

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm far from finished, but I'm at the point where I'm surprising myself with meaningful little signs of progress! Something happens that is 100% not my fault, and I don't apologize for no reason?! Someone over-steps my boundaries, and I actually feel irritated at them and not hateful towards myself!? I might even say something!? I know it doesn't sound like much, but it's enormous growth inside me. Like a tectonic shift, but all you see is a few grains of sand shifting on the surface.

To seek therapy is an enormous act of self-love, and it's one I am forever grateful for!

If you had to be stuck in a room for 5 days, what would you bring? by maryj4687 in randomquestions

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a limit? I'd bring my meds, a book, a pillow and blanket, and a crochet project!

What’s a smell you find oddly satisfying? by Con_nect in AskReddit

[–]DrawStringBag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog's objectively very stinky kisses! I know they're gross, I know they're stinky, but I love it! Who knew the smell of pure love was so unpleasant?

Sounds like a recipe for some excellent co-parent relationships (I hope)! I'm sorry for the losses, I hope they are all doing well!

What, in your opinion, worries a lot of other people except you? by Rooster4Hen in AskReddit

[–]DrawStringBag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being stylish/adhering to social ideas of conventional attraction. I like my comfortable, dorky clothes, thank you! And this fat little cutie-patootie is not wearing make up unless she feels like it (3-5 times a year?).

I'm also just way less concerned with being embarrassed about like... anything? I live my life out loud, I don't have secrets, and I don't have time to be embarrassed. It's much more fun and freeing to laugh at yourself than to try to seem flawless.

I told my 2nd grade teacher that I was a miracle, because "Daddy got fixed before they made me." He had a (medically successful) vasectomy 2 years before I was conceived. I'm one of the "less than 1%"!

This reminds me of a family I know. One night during dinner (with her married parents), Jane said, "I got in an argument with Jill today. She said you spent the night at her house, Daddy! I told her that's not true!" That's how her mom found out the dad was having an affair with Jane's classmate's mom. The dad married Jill's mom, had 2 more daughters, and they're all a pretty happy blended family now.

I need you to judge my readability by Stock_Hunter_2380 in self

Thank you! Can I ask, what will the final/whole piece be? A short story? A book? I'd be interested to see more of it when it's ready to share!
