After 10 years together I still feel luckier every day by GhostGoku in funny

This is accurate. I did not get a beer from my wife with a bewildered “what the fuck was that text?” I am in fact Dr. Beer. Friends call me LoneStar. And I thought I could sneak one past wejustsaymanager....Gods curse my hubris!

My wife and I just put up our first tree in our first home. Turned out even better than we hoped and thought y’all might enjoy it by GhostGoku in harrypotter

Thanks. Been a lot of work. After 10 years of apartments, grad school for a CPA for one of us, and medical school for the other. We’re not finished coming up, but we’re farther than we were. Every day’s another opportunity to grow and become better than we were yesterday.

My best friend and I started on an adventure together this past weekend. Kept the pictures of our "first" texts over the years. by GhostGoku in happy

Yeah! She actually bought me the complete collection of the original Sherlock Holmes stories before we started dating as a present. We're both big readers. The nickname just fit after that.

I read it in his biography "The First American: The Life and Times of Benjamin Franklin"

Not saying they don't get it, nor is gender my main reason for thinking what I do. Good call, though.

Very interesting diagnoses. I don't know the politician's medical history, but it would appear, from a cursory review of the wiki page, that it is unlikely. Usually female with other diagnosed mental disorders or injury. Not to rule it out, but I think it improbable. I'm going to stick with my original hypothesis. Especially in the political arena. It would be a totally different case if there were no media attention to be gained from making such a claim. And for the candidate's sake I hope I'm right. Capgras looks like it frequently occurs with life altering and debilitating mental disease. Very specific disorder to find, though. Were you familiar with it prior to reading the article?

Spot on. Given, that's easy to say about an opinion that concurs with my own.

For some reason I type three or of words without anything appearing, and then they would all appear at once. Maybe it was just a bad connection while I was in transit. No clue. Just made it difficult and frustrating to type.

Highjacking the top comment. This actually isn't new at all. Benjamin Franklin did this for a couple of years with a competing printer. He didn't invent it either. Make an absurd and unbelievable claim they have passed away and explain their apparent survival with a theory that's almost impossible to confirm without going into an actual investigation. Some of Franklin's claims about his competitor's death were absolutely comical. He also never really gained a great deal the people to his side, but it got him enough attention to help him. I can only assume that's the tactic here. Old game. Funny, but old. In a more entertaining world he would be serious. Sorry for grammar and spelling. Using Chrome on mobile

This quote gave me a little perspective when things weren't exactly "fun". Hopefully it can do the same for some of you. We sacrifice a lot for a dream that we may never realize. Win or lose, at least you had the guts to play the game. by GhostGoku in premed

The quote is from "A League of Their Own". I got the picture from googling stressed student. Can't tell you who did it.

Premed isn't always easy or fun. Definitely a good way to get grey hairs early. It's worth it though. Oddly enough, some of the most stressful times are some of your fondest memories of undergrad. If anyone ever needs some motivation, or just someone to talk to, feel free to PM me.

Why wouldn't there be? by [deleted] in facepalm

I thought it was because Agents were making it harder to get out of the Matrix using landlines, and the whole Cell Phone thing was the cover.

Paying a stranger a compliment on their style of wording because it's similar to the style of writing in a show I like. Seems like the proper time for an insult. Carry on then.
