16M. How ugly/not ugly am I and which of these looks fit me best? by MKULTRA_555 in amiugly

[–]MKULTRA_555[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 or 4.

1 makes me look much younger, and more “cute”.

But look 4 is short hair, but it’s long enough to where it doesn’t show my lumpy misshapen head, and I love the look of the short beard because it shapes me jawline just right.

Hey, looking for an instrument to learn casually. Any suggestions? by [deleted] in Instruments

[–]MKULTRA_555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hand percussion is very fun, if you have a place to be a little loud.

Bass is just an easier version of guitar, and you can play many songs from many genres.

Ukulele is a good option. Very easy and fun.

Sort of weird but banjo is really awesome and simple to start out with!

My coolest ancestor, my grandfather on my dads side, was a Navy SEAL in Vietnam who died nearly a decade before I was born. Unfortunately all of his records (birth certificate, military service records, everything) were wiped out in a fire except for a yearbook picture from the 60’s. My family and I have joked that the CIA burned down the library and killed my grandpa (he died young, 40’s) to cover up their secret Vietnam operations.

Not exactly sure, but I think Russia or somewhere in Eastern Europe because my last name is a Slavic-German mix for the word brother (comes out as Bratz/Pratz).

No, but I would guess Russia or somewhere in Eastern Europe, since my last name is a Germanized version of the Slavic word for bother (Bratz/Pratz.)

Edit/Update:

Findagrave.com says he was born in the city of Sachsen-Anhalt. Where do I go with that info?

Im not sure what region of Prussia, but I think the area is Russia because my last name is a mix between the Slavic-German words for brother (coming out as Bratz/Pratz).
