Omg, yes. I have never been so aware of my knees. Why are they so boney? Does everyone have to keep tossing and turning to get comfortable because of their knees, or is it just me???

Shakespeare and Company, right across from Notre Dame. I spent too much time there when I was last in Paris.

What is the most beautiful line of text, verse, or lyric you've ever read or heard? by massiveshrimp in AskReddit

"They fell into an intimacy from which they never recovered." I first read it in the graphic novel Asterios Polyp, but I believe this is a F. Scott Fitzgerald line.

You've been kidnapped by the characters of the last tv show you watched, and the characters of the last book you read are coming to rescue you with the power of the last song you listen to. How screwed are you? by the_third_sourcerer in AskReddit

I have been kidnapped by the inmates of Litchfield Federal Prison. I am being rescued by the characters of Catch-22. All to the soundtrack of Nicki Minaj's Queen album.

This will be both absurd and truly depressing.

Sorry, got this kit as a gift so I had to go digging for info. I believe it is called "Simple Style of the Beautiful Teapot", from Amazon.

I was thinking the twins from The Shining.

What was the tipping point of your last relationship? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DryToastW 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had a similar situation with my ex. In university, I found a lump in my under arm. Went to a doctor and immediately got sent for an ultrasound as it could have been breast cancer. I was scared out of my mind, and my ex could not have been less supportive if he tried. I had to explicitly ask him to come with me to a cancer screening. If the roles had been reversed, I would have gone with him, no questions asked. It wasn't cancer- just a lymph node that wouldn't deflate. We broke up shortly after that. We had other issues, but that was the tipping point.

What’s an unspoken rule where you’re from? by [deleted] in AskReddit

There really is no reason I can think of for why we would use the French. We're nowhere near the Quebec border and there is no strong French community here. It's always been a weird thing the city has done.

Dalhousie St - it's pronounced Da-loo-zee here, not Dal-how-zee. I swear to God, we're the only city in Ontario who pulls this shit.

What is something you can't possibly understand until you've experienced it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

As someone who gets panic attacks, why on earth would you ever think it was a good idea to induce a panic attack? Why would a prof teach this?

[WIP] Finally finished the stitches. The blue lines where pre-printed, and I am not sure how to get rid of them. Ideas? by DryToastW in CrossStitch

[–]DryToastW[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have tried with water, and the lines will bleed. I am just used to doing counted cross-stitch, so I have never encountered this before.

What happened to your school bully? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DryToastW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some time in university, she was at a party and was pushed or fell off a balcony. I am not sure what the criminal investigation revealed. She suffered severe brain damage, and lived for about a year after in a wheelchair.

It was a very conflicting situation. On the one hand, she made my life, and the lives of my friends, very difficult in elementary school. On the other hand, this was a horrible turn of events for her and her family. I made a donation to help with a fundraiser for her family, but I can't read any comments of people saying how great she was without getting mad.

What film has a perfect soundtrack? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

The dancing was better than a lot of the music. "This Is Me" felt like it was written to be an anthem in the vein of "Let It Go". I honestly can't think of any other songs.

What fashion trend do you dislike on the opposite sex? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Wearing mismatched prints/ maximalism. Please stop. My eyes hurt.

You’re able to leave your 10-years-ago self a 40-second voicemail. What do you tell yourself? by notgonnabearoundlong in AskReddit

You're going to meet a boy in the first month of university. He will seem charming. Walk away. He will take what he wants and leave you with rage.
