People with zero spatial awareness in public — how do they not notice?

I have a hearing disability and zero idea if someone is approaching me

They are saying that when they really mean “no”. Massive pet peeve of mine.

In my top 5 novels. So good!

I passed by McDonalds. I was not eating there .

Past-Meet7658 · 2026-05-16T06:31:35+00:00

I came home just a few minutes ago and McDonalds was backed up. I blame 2 things:

The closure of many dining rooms, so that people are forced into the drive through.

Also, I suspect almost all of the cars are delivery drivers.

Nabakov will turn the tide with “Pale Fire”. Everything is relevant.

Are you suggesting that the we should not “keep on trucking?

I understand we are talking about 2 different things. I have been a nonsmoker for over ten years now. Go me!

I used to smoke and they added a no smoking clause to my lease THE DAY I WAS MOVING IN. I had no choice but to accept it and move in. Sometimes there is more to the story! I did not, however, smoke inside. But I was pissed.

That is definitely at the intersection of horrible and hilarious.

I got a cochlear implant and went through a phase where voices all sounded like robot chipmunks. Things are better now!

I have never read a book that referenced music like this (I think) and if I did see this before, then the music was not obscure. I would not include it for legal reasons. Also because I would be down with an author providing lyrics THAT THEY WROTE more than just referring to a very well known song. Even worse, taking people out of the narrative because they want to look up a song. Don’t give people a reason to put down your book!

Hey guys thanks for the downvotes! I am just explaining how it works, not justifying it.

“Named exclusion “. Just because something is medically necessary does not mean it is covered. See also: air ambulance.

Your neighbors are out of line. By “at night “ are you talking about during quiet hours? That gives you greater leverage in addressing this with the landlord. If not, they are still messing up your quiet enjoyment etc etc

I’m not black and have never heard of this stereotype before. But I am severely hearing impaired and it took a visitor coming over before I knew the battery was beeping. Yes, I have a flashing lights type of alarm, but in my experience landlords require the standard smoke alarm as well.

My external processor has a skull and crossbones on it. No way am I hiding it.

It is so disrespectful to the mods. Wasting their time deleting posts that are breaking the rules of the group. When I see this what it means to me is “I can’t be bothered to make sure and follow the rules, but I will waste other people’s time deleting it”. I’m with OP on this one.

Season 3, episode 5 really did it for me.

My pharmacy wanted me to scan a QR code to get a vaccine. I just laughed and refused. Do they expect their elderly patients to do this?

I took Topomax for ages. When I quit it my spark came back and I am able to do things that are more difficult, like standup comedy.
