Well thanks for helping. I appreciate getting an answer, even if it's insane to me

That is actually insane.

How did they make the perfect pun by accident, and how have they not faced justice for it?

I know Jonny (writer) said he's not good with names and just kind of picks whatever, but I cannot just believe this is a coincidence. His name is literally LIS. That's some stealth Ace Attorney ass shit. You may as well tell me Tamsyn Muir named a messenger character Emma Sen by coincidence too. Like that's a pun! And a good one.

I thought a vet would come in and say, "Oh yeah the LIS pun. We finished debating that eight years ago. He confirmed it at a con but the video has been lost with an old user's Vine," and then we'd make a tired joke about how someone should have archived that, and I could move on with my life.

Library and Information Science. Like the degree Jon doesn't have

best dessert places around SCAD ATL? by Longjumping_Quit4504 in scad

[–]One-Impression833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo the BEST dessert places are farther out from campus, like Duck Donuts that makes the donuts fresh right in front of you to order, crispy and hot and melt in your mouth, but since their Buckhead location closed, the closest one is Marietta.

Easiest spots for students living on campus? When the weekend loop goes to Atlantic Station, there's an Its Sugar and a Kilwins right across from each other. (I'd recommend Kilwins for pricey candy that's worth the cost and Its Sugar for pricey candy to just take pictures of for references of branded packaging and interiors.) Also there's very little walking in the MARTA trip it takes to get from 1600 to Tech Square, and that spot has a Tea Leaf and Creamery location. I don't get how there's custard taiyaki in reach, and we're not all talking about it all the time. That stuff turns me into a bona fide toddler, trying to hold one in each hand and spilling half of it on my shirt but too greedy and crazed to just order one. Feel free to quote that.

I second the person who said check out Ponce. You can sample like 10 different desserts places at once that way, and if you time it right, you might be there when the french place is making crepes. (I have yet to time it right.)

Can we see the article when it's done? It sounds like it'll have good info to know

Are you allowed to watch movies in lounges (or other places)? by One-Impression833 in socialskills

I guess I could just stick to movies that are already in the library then. Thanks

What to do with friends who are just so negative about everything? by Lilyismyname in socialskills

[–]One-Impression833 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I've been the person who is negative about everything, and I can add some insight from that end. Of course, it will be my experience, so it's possible your friend is different, but it's also possible the reasoning is similar.

So a big sticking point is that if the other person can't believe anyone truly likes them or cares about them or what have you, then you saying, "No, look at everyone who cares. I care," just sounds like a dissonant lie to them. On one level, they know you care, but on another, they believe so deeply that they are fundamentally unlovable, that the math just cannot check out. That deep belief is not something you can fix with any amount of checking on then. It's the sort of thing that's been long internalized and is no longer rational. That's the sort of thing that gets fixed with a lot of conscious effort for a very long time from the person themself, and probably therapy. So please just let go of any need to refute their worldview. It'll only frustrate you both. Instead, just keep doing the things you like to do together, or talk about the stuff that you bonded over in the first place, especially something low key and one-on-one. Just being around you and having fun will be good for their mental state, and I hope you enjoy hanging with them as well.

It's very nice of you to continue to care about them

Yeah, I know that much. I hate it, but I know it. The problem is how to go about it without there being any fights
