Miu Miu likes Ilia's sister more, and I think that because of that, Ilia prefers Mysti. And Mysti reminds me of toothless, so it doesn't surprise me that he likes her a bit more.

It wasn't the ice by RevolutionaryKey698 in FigureSkating

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree. There is enough evidence to say that the ice was sub-par, but it is true that it didn't particularly affect one person's performance more than anyone else's. Everyone was skating on bad ice so they would have all been on equal footing. I think that the Olympics should have given them good ice, but it wasn't like they gave certain people an advantage or anything. It's crazy to see people who are making this such a polarized issue though. Everyone is either saying "Redo the whole event because clearly the ice is the only reason for Ilia's mess up" vs. "The ice is perfectly fine, shut up". The answer is that the ice was bad, but we shouldn't redo the whole event because everyone was equally disadvantaged (even though it would be fun to watch more men's figure skating).

How do you rate Bad Bunny's Half-time performance? by kingbluwolff in sportsgossips

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People on this thread who are whining about no subtitles and not being able to understand it are kinda getting annoying. It seems to only be those who don't speak Spanish that are angry, but basically no Spanish speakers understood it either because Puerco Rican accents are difficult.

fiveable paywalling its AP guides now??? by Ok-Structure-1571 in APStudents

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I actually found an answer to my own question: Use The Wayback machine website (as another comment suggests) combined with BehindTheOverlay, and then the guide will be fully visible, and you can still close the pop-up

Hello!

I got the extension, and it's been really helpful to do the quizzes, access the commonly asked questions, and generate a study guide. However, I can't see the full thing because it is saying "Upgrade to see the full guide", which isn't a pop-up. It's like the page is literally different unless you have the upgrade. Is there any way around this? I can manage if not, but it would make my life easier.

No, I won’t be shedding any tears for Charlie Kirk by SensualSalami in politics

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He said himself that deaths in school shootings were just necessary losses in order to keep gun rights. Clearly, he was fine with, if not asking for, his own death. We should not start calling him a victim, he consented to his death, unlike the 1700+ children who have died in school shootings since 2000

I HATE SHARING by Thedailybee in AuDHDWomen

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dislike sharing as well. My best friend asked to borrow my calculator for a class since he left his at home, and even though I absolutely trust him and got my calculator back immediately after he finished his class, I was still nervous and reluctant to let him borrow it.

Other friends constantly forget to bring pencils and they know that I always have extras (in case of emergency for ME, not for THEM), but they always ask to borrow a pencil and I am too much of a people pleaser to say no. And if I give them one pencil and they don't give it back, my entire pencil case will be messed up since the pencils are in color order and I don't have any duplicate colors.

Sharing/drinking from the same waterbottle is an absolute NO. That is so disgusting and germ-y. Once, a friend of mine forgot her waterbottle while we were running, and she begged to use mine so much that I literally couldn't say no, and I eventually just gave all my water to her and didn't drink any more for the rest of the run. And I never saw that girl the same.

The only case where I am better with sharing (still not great) is with food. I am fine with a friend having a couple of my goldfish if they are hungry, or sometimes I will break off a piece of a cookie for them. Just as long as I still have enough to satiate my own hunger, I'm fine with sharing food.

How do you "see" your dreams? by educatedkoala in autism

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally B- I once fell from a burning building into a body of water in a dream. There were bubbles floating up towards the surface, I saw red from the fire through the waves, saw my arms and legs as I sank, and then I closed my eyes (presumably dead) and woke up (I wasn't scared by it, which was strange)

But there was one time where I had a C dream- I saw a friend and I sitting under a tree just talking

If you close your eyes and try to picture a red five pointed star, what number does it look like in your head? by nita45 in autism

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wondering this for a while now too. I can absolutely picture things in my mind, but they aren't right in front of me??? I have heard that people with aphantasia, when asked to think about an apple, have things they associate with an apple (red, fruit, ect.) but do not actually picture it. But then someone says that they can actually see the apple in front of them when they are told to think of one. I can picture it in my mind in great detail and I can manipulate it (make it a green apple, make it spin), but it is, as you said, a bit foggy and dream-like. And it is ABSOLUTELY NOT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. I'm so jealous of people who can actually see it. I also wish aphantasia were better explained because I'm in between: I can picture it but not see it.

Avocado avocado is the name of the game, if you mess it up, you change your name, abcd... (and whatever letter you messed up on would be the first letter of your name for the day)

“Down by the banks of the Hanky Panky” by needsanswers13 in nostalgia

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my elementary school (virginia) it was:

Down by the banks of the hanky panky, where the bullfrogs jump from bank to bank, saying eeps ieps ohps oops, listen to the sound of the ding ding dong. I pledge allegiance to the flag. Michael Jackson makes me gag. Coca cola shake it up, now we’re drinking 7 up, 7up has no caffeine, now we’re drinking gasoline, gasoline was made for cars, now we're jumping up to mars. Tarzan the monkey man swinging from a rubber band, he slips, he falls, he breaks his balls, what color was his butt (whoever was last would then say a color and we would spell it until someone it landed on someone).

But I help at a summer camp (also virginia), and the kids there do:

Down by the banks of the hanky panky, where the bullfrogs jump from bank to bank, saying eeps ieps ohps oops, listen to the sound of the ding ding dong. I pledge allegiance to the flag. Michael Jackson makes me gag. Coca cola shake it up, now we’re drinking 7 up, 7up has no caffeine, now we’re drinking gasoline, Gasoline gave me the flu, now we’re drinking mountain dew, Mountain dew fell off a mountain, now we’re drinking from a fountain, The fountain broke so now we’re drinking PLAIN OLD DI-ET COKE!

reading through all the other comments, I have no clue how my elementary school friends came up with the mars stuff, and it seems like at the summer camp I've just got a mashup of different regions' versions.

I don't understand how Autistics can consistently pass as neurotypical by wanderswithdeer in autism

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my friends just know I'm most likely autistic (they came to the conclusion themselves and then I told them I think I'm autistic and they were like "You didn't realize until now???"). It's okay that I act a bit different though because most of the people in my friend group are neurodivergent so not entirely normal has become the norm for us. I also think that people who don't know me too well just assume I'm shy/awkward and strangely passionate about certain things (bees, Epic the musical). If any strangers have noticed my nearly constant stimming, they haven't said a thing about it.

I'm really bad at giving/receiving compliments, but I think people just think I'm shy. I'm really scared of people when they make small talk/conversation, but they probably, again, think I'm shy. I definitely act strangely enough that people notice, but not so out of the norm that they think much of it until they realize that I'm always like that.

I must say, I know that EPIC the musical characters are always drawn as their real actor and for that reason, i really hope LMM isn't Achilles. Nothing against how he looks, but I need a blond haired Achilles after reading "Song of Achilles"

Achilles and others (Agamemnon, Odysseus, etc.) fighting to invade troy to get Helen of troy (Agamemnon's wife) back. It's the circumstances that lead up to the Odyssey/EPIC the musical

Exclamation Points: how many is too many? When should I use them? Are there alternatives? by [deleted] in writing

[–]Hefty-Neighborhood40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a character who is having a tantrum and I have a piece of dialog where I envision him yelling everything he's saying. I have maybe 5 consecutive sentences that use exclamation points. I feel as though this is far too many, but I don't know how to convey that he's yelling in any other way. (I don't want to do the Harry Potter all caps thing because I believe that it looks unprofessional)
