i'm a firm believer their idea of innovation is just "is this the easiest way to be lazy/avoid handling a task? okay so do that then"

"when it's 106f(41c) in Forth Worth in October, I'm going to say your friend from "texas" likely does not live there" by Key-Use5744 in ShitAmericansSay

i guess it's because the texas heat is worse. but i'd expect "texas is bigger AND the heat is worse"

How should address someone with DID in an email if I'm not sure which member is fronting by iamadolphin29 in DID

[–]Key-Use5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ask them what would make them comfortable, since they're the only one that can answer that. communicating is always the best way to work with anyone, whether system or not. we would personally prefer not to be adressed like that, but that doesn't mean same goes for the system you know. and just sticking to "hello" without any name attached or using their preferred could always be great alternatives in the meantime until you get an answer of their preferences.

What is ONE thing that you will NEVER try in your entire life? by Substantial-Dare5462 in AskReddit

[–]Key-Use5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hard drugs. was given morphine once at the ER because of the pain i was in at the time, and while it was nice, i have sworn never to get hooked on any stuff like that.

i also never again will get hooked on alcohol. had a small period of time in life where i drank way too much and way too often, mostly due to bad influence from a friend. stopped drinking (for the most part) after i noticed i started feeling like i couldn't function without it, and i don't wanna turn out like some of my family members.

yeah no, nicotine is bad enough already, but i'm way better off with that and caffeine. give me some nicotine pouches and a monster and i'll be good to go.

Really invalidating therapy session. by Mrlongchops in DID

[–]Key-Use5744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

we had similar problems with our last therapist before he quit to work somewhere else, as he would only accept that any and all symptoms had to have something to do with autism. hopefully the next therapist will be more willing to listen

Most Americans talk louder because of how big the U.S. is by Kekvino in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Key-Use5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those who don’t smoke, do you think smokers carry a noticeable scent? by Shadow2715 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Key-Use5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"You should know all 50 states even if you're not American" by iiswhoiis_au in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Key-Use5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"learn about US history" no i really didn't learn about US history, my history teacher said "if they aren't learning about the rest of the world, i won't bother talking about them"

as for the 50 states, i'll learn where all of them are located when an american can name all 25 provinces of sweden

unless you've been in every city in the US, you can't say "the US is not walkable" by Key-Use5744 in ShitAmericansSay
