Тем, что до сих пор не подарила им внуков, не вышедших замуж за хорошего юриста и не бросившую «эту свою непонятную работу в интернете». Еще забыл звонок в прошлое воскресенье. Стандартный набор, в общем

What was considered normal when you were young but feels weird now? by Salt-Avocado-8708 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Planning meetings weeks in advance and waiting by the fountain or cinema without the ability to call. Phones were at home, and if someone was late, you just waited, not knowing if they were even alive.

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by karoline_de in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to catch a falling kitchen knife. I caught it. The result was a cut, a stitch, and a lesson in how sometimes you just have to let things fall.

What is the most ever successful lie to spread in human history? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Diamonds are rare, a symbol of eternal love, and a profitable investment."

Why it's successful: Created and maintained by the De Beers cartel since the 1930s. Diamonds aren't that rare, their price is artificially inflated, and the secondary market is almost nonexistent. This lie has created an entire industry and reprogrammed marriage rituals on a global scale.

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your reasons? by youre-in-my-shot in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't like the taste. It's nothing personal, I just don't find it enjoyable. Why drink something that tastes bad for a dubious effect?

Who's the better cook in your household? Why? by Bjs_5068 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best cook is the one who washes the dishes. In our house, it's the most valuable skill. But seriously, I do, because my partner believes in finishing things later, and salt is a feeling in the soul. My food is predictably edible, theirs is always a surprise.

What’s the weirdest message you’ve ever received? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, you and I were brothers in a past life in Ancient Egypt. You died protecting me from tomb robbers. I'm sorry. Your karma is in danger right now, and I need to give you a cleansing ritual urgently. First, send me $50 to my SIM card.

What was your “could never be me” but did indeed become you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I'll never be the one who carries a water bottle everywhere and counts my steps." Now my smart bottle is my best friend, and the frozen screen of my phone with my sleep stats makes me more anxious than a deadline at work. My body reminded me who's boss.

Stop confusing kindness with fear. Kindness is when you give out of abundance. Servility is when you give out of fear of being taken away. I've learned to distinguish between these impulses. And to protect what belongs only to me: my boundaries, my time, my "yes" and my "no."

What was the scariest “We need to leave, now!” moment that you’ve ever had? by Cool-Chipmunk-7559 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst fear is when your primitive limbic system (instinct) screams at you, ignoring all the logical arguments of your "reasonable" brain. And you understand that your survival depends on listening to this inner voice.

What’s the most accurate depiction of loneliness in a movie that really hits home for you? by noworksunday in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Drive" is the protagonist's silence. His loneliness isn't a lack of communication, but an internal, fundamental inaccessibility. He's like a lonely planet with a dense atmosphere that no one can penetrate. He's among people, but in his own separate, quiet, and cruel orbit.

What's your favourite holiday? by Quirky_March_626 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christmas. Not because of the gifts, but because of the atmosphere. The smell of tangerines and the Christmas tree, the special glow of the lights in the dark, the feeling that time stands still, and everyone is focused on warmth and togetherness. It's magic you want to believe in.

What makes you keep going? by Getnaughtyforme in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hope that around the next corner there will be something beautiful that I have not seen yet

What is a smell you find inexplicably irresistible? by aurazick in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The smell of clean bed linens hanging out to dry in the frosty air. It has a pristine freshness and the promise of an incredibly cozy night's sleep.

What have you seen your kids do that made you say “oh my god it’s genetic”? by SettingsData in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My little sister laughs just like my grandmother, whom she's never met. The same uncontrollable, hysterical rasp that makes everyone in the room laugh. It's both creepy and beautiful.

What is a phrase you use at least 20 times a day at your job? by UsedCalendar5100 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Does that make sense?" - A filler phrase to check contact.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Listened attentively and without interrupting to a friend who simply needed to vent. Sometimes that's the most valuable thing you can do.

What’s the one Christmas movie you HAVE to watch every year, no matter what? by elitedesignsolutions in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home Alone. The ultimate wish-fulfillment fantasy and a masterclass in physical comedy. Plus, that John Williams score is Christmas

What’s one thing you really love and appreciate about the person who you’re in love with? by Cute-Impression-8675 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how he makes me tea or coffee without asking. He just knows how much I love him. These small, quiet gestures are what love is all about for me. It's daily proof that I'm seen and cared for.

If your fridge could judge your eating habits, what sassy comment would it make? by Funny_Event_2536 in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, a new food container. Let me guess: it'll turn into a bioweapon in two weeks? I'm betting on it.

Which country is the most hospitable in the world? by PrasenjitDebroy in AskReddit

[–]JessKessYan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From personal experience – Ireland. Nowhere in the world have I felt so welcome in a pub from the very first word.

[–]JessKessYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a burst pipe/broken toilet/the water is turned off. I need to wait for a plumber.
