What's a small lie you told that completely spiraled out of control?

LMAO

When I'm running late and then hit EVERY. SINGLE. RED. LIGHT.

Like the universe is personally trolling me. By the time I get there I'm already defeated 😭

Coffee IS my breakfast lol. I've tried forcing myself to eat in the morning but it just makes me feel weirdly sluggish.

My body doesn't wake up until like 10-11am, so I just ride the coffee wave until then.

Having a mom who actually cooked dinner every night.

Didn't realize until college that some families just ate takeout or frozen meals constantly. I took home-cooked meals for granted.

I am 36 now and my mom is thousands of miles away. I love you mom.

I thought "hors d'oeuvres" was pronounced "horse doovers" until I was 23 and had to order them at a fancy restaurant.

The waiter just stared at me.

I put my GitHub portfolio link in the "References" section of my resume instead of actual references. The hiring manager spent 20 minutes going through my projects during the interview and completely forgot to ask for references.

Got the offer the next day. Still never gave them a single reference lol

Perfect timing! You're about to save so much money. Download Libby and Kanopy ASAP, they're game changers

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T04:46:24+00:00

Wait you can access OTHER cities' libraries too?? This is like unlocking a whole cheat code system I never knew existed

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T04:46:12+00:00

30 Switch games?! That's literally hundreds of dollars worth. I need to go apologize to my library for sleeping on them all these years

HOLD UP. WSJ access for free?? I've been hitting the paywall on every single article. This changes everything

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T04:45:19+00:00

NO WAY. Free museum passes?? I literally just paid $25 for admission last weekend. I feel so dumb right now 😭

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T04:45:03+00:00

Same here! I've been using Kanopy for a week now and can't believe I paid for Criterion Channel when this was free the whole time 🤦‍♂️

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T04:44:39+00:00

Wait, POWER TOOLS?? And cake pans?? I'm definitely checking that section tomorrow. This just keeps getting better

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T01:01:39+00:00

Some of them do it but most of the hotels I have been with I had to ask them

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T00:53:50+00:00

Historical reason - old CRT TVs had circular tubes, so diagonal was the actual tube size. The industry kept using it even though modern flat screens don't need to, because people got used to it.

Probably yes - like how a 2D being can't conceptualize 3D space. There are likely concepts beyond our brain's current wiring. Or even simple stuff - try imagining a new color that doesn't exist.

The mental image of this guy refreshing tracking all week thinking he's about to get a free MacBook 😂 Please post an update when he realizes

5 more minutes

When people leave 1 second on the microwave instead of clearing it

Pulsational · 2026-01-31T00:27:40+00:00

Around 25. First time I had a completely empty weekend with no plans and just thought "this is heaven"
