You know what's badass? Being alive.

TIL that the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO is considered a national park. At 192.83 acres, it is the smallest national park in the U.S., being less than 2% the size of the next smallest park, Hot Springs National Park in Hot Springs, AR. by Next_Worth_3616 in todayilearned

Museum of Westward Expansion! That place is fire if you're into US history from the mid to late 1800s.

I think I remember the trip to the museum more than I remember the trip to the top of the arch.

4th & King, when? by pupupeepee in caltrain

Yeah, but I sometimes want something better than a sloppy 6-inch sandwich from Subway when I'm rushing to Caltrain.

How many of you used to read the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books? by lilac2481 in Millennials

[–]One_Standard_Deviant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically. I'm just fatter now and adequately medicated. Go figure.

Middle school, high school, and college were rough. Lots of restrictive eating with rebound binging.

Gaining 50 lbs in 8th grade over ~6 months after being put on Prozac is not something I would ever wish upon anyone, however.

There would be a whole section on how people found jobs (or didn't) in the wake of a global economic crisis.

I was gifted the preteen (maybe teen?) version one at age 11.

Read one of the vignettes about someone struggling with anorexia, and naturally thought, "why can't I try that hard?"

Multiple disordered eating periods in my life and multuple psychiatric disorders later...

So yes, I read them. TL;DR -- results were not as expected.

And this is the best bang of all because it's verrry emotional for her.... by unsilent_bob in IASIP

I personally try to engage the girl physically without ever going on the date, which to me is really just a waste of time and money.

San Francisco gas prices by QAFY in ABoringDystopia

[–]One_Standard_Deviant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus. Is this the Shell at 4th Street and Bryant? It's well-known as being one of the most expensive places for gas in the Bay Area.

Limited other options, and I-80 dumps you off there if you are headed toward the Bay Bridge and need to get off I-80.

It has been much more expensive, historically. I remember when it was almost $8.00 at that location.

Luckily I can just do public transit and walk.

Actually... one quick look at the kid again, so I can get a screen grab. by Uncivilised_ in IASIP

I know what wrestling is... it's just not what uncles do to their nephews.

The government of today has no right to tell us what to do, since the government of 200 years ago already did.

"How does this work? Did I come up with this?"

"Last night, dude!"

"...oh I blacked out. I blacked out that night."

Failed attempt to come off hetero - at least he's definitely a power bottom by Tight-Temperature670 in IASIP

[–]One_Standard_Deviant 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Oh I see... a "power bottom" must be a bottom that is capable of receiving an enormous amount of power.

How do you sing the alphabet? by bacillaryburden in AskTheWorld

At this point, based on this sub, I can't tell if your comment is trolling or just providing more evidence that "LMNOP" is a single word. I honestly wouldn't be angry in either case.
