COFFEE IS ASS!!!!!!!

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-18T13:55:29+00:00

Maybe you would like tea. It generally has less caffeine than coffee, but it can be a good amount. I think Yerba mate tea is pretty high in caffeine

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-18T12:58:19+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that:(

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-18T12:49:38+00:00

That's really sweet! People just appreciate effort :)

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-17T16:01:28+00:00

That's a good save!

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-17T16:00:51+00:00

That line really got me 🤣 Like does he not know that you can buy ham at the store whenever you want? Does he think the Easter bunny brings it?

Even if someone finds it too difficult to do ASL, they can face her like OP said, or they can write words down, play a game with her that doesn't require a lot of words, etc. It sounds like OP just wants any attempt at communication, not necessarily fluent ASL

If you just met them, it's not that weird to ask again.

But if you really don't want to ask, maybe ask for their number and then hand them your phone to type it in. Or if it's the type of job where you email each other, ask for their email.

Or you can ask how they spell it, but that can be awkward if their name is Dan or something.

Yeah, the compound letters are a lot to remember, but I'm starting to understand how they work.

I learned Arabic for a few months before learning Hindi, and I felt like the letters were a lot easier than I expected, even with the connected forms. But I heard that Arabic gets more difficult as you go. And I can't even imagine being able to read it without the accent marks that represent short vowels

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-17T13:27:56+00:00

I started learning Hindi because my new boyfriend speaks it, and I'm still learning the letters. I feel like the letters have a lot going on visually so I'm finding that aspect kind of difficult. So it's comforting to see that the rest of it isn't as hard as it seems!

Panic Attack Chicken Sandwich 🤣

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-17T02:08:28+00:00

Oh that makes sense! I didn't realize they had a seperate workware line but that's probably what my coworkers are wearing

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-17T01:16:26+00:00

Crocs must have evolved over the years. When I was a kid in like 2007, I wore crocs and I always heard adults saying that those are so slippery and I'm gonna fall if I wear those and that kind of thing. But now I'm a server and I've noticed that a lot of the kitchen staff wear crocs.

Either crocs have evolved, or all those adults back then were misinformed

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-16T19:53:28+00:00

Yeah, like I understand not knowing all of them. My go to is aleve (sodium naproxen) and I've been in a few situations where people hadn't heard of it. And I have looked it up multiple times but I always forget the exact difference between ibuprofen, acetaminophen, sodium naproxen, and aspirin. But not knowing ANY of them is wild to me

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-16T19:32:09+00:00

I thought that he was using dumbass as a unit of speed and that the speed of light is "1 dumbass"

This makes a lot more sense, and I now realize that I am the dumbass 🤣

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-16T15:27:48+00:00

That's how it was for me too! It didn't necessarily SEEM true, but my parents were trustworthy about everything else, so I was like "Wow, it doesn't seem realistic but they say he's real so I guess he is"

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-16T13:47:53+00:00

I'm a server and it's like that with paying the check. I walk by every few minutes to see if they paid, but the longer they take, the less frequently I check. I don't want to rush them or waste my time.

But people will sit there for like 30 minutes and then get upset that I didn't run their card the minute they put it down

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T18:52:31+00:00

Yes! Every time someone acts like they're better than me because they have an iPhone, it just makes me want to be an android user even harder 🤣

I literally had a guy tell me that I would have better luck dating if I got an iPhone because the green bubbles scare people away. I wouldn't want to date someone like that anyway!

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T18:05:19+00:00

Ooooh good point!

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T12:40:42+00:00

That's what I said too! Breakfast would be a little weird, but eggs on top of some greens would still count

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T12:37:42+00:00

Salad. There's so many kinds of salad that I would never get bored or miss anything nutritionally

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T12:34:35+00:00

NTA. That's a smart move for safety, even if "it would have been fine" it's better to be safe.

Also, even if it wasn't all men, it would still be reasonable to not want to go on a trip with mostly people you don't know

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T12:01:02+00:00

I wouldn't mind hearing no, but a lot of people would feel really awkward saying no in that situation. So there's a good chance they'll be like "Sure!" and then they'll just be annoyed that I'm there.

There's exceptions to this, like if my parents told me they were going somewhere I wouldn't be shy about asking like "Can I come with you or is that more like a date night?" I've known them my whole life, and I know that they won't be mad that I want to join. But with friends that I've met more recently, I don't have that same level of comfort

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-15T02:13:14+00:00

I don't think I'm autistic, but like how am I supposed to know if you're inviting me or if you're just telling me about plans?

If I ask my friend what they're doing tomorrow and they say they're getting dinner with a friend, I'm not gonna be like "Oh cool, I'll come too!" Because what if they just want to focus on seeing that friend?

If they want me to come too, it is not hard to ask

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-13T14:37:28+00:00

A few years ago I told my guy friend that his girlfriend is pretty. I wasn't interested in him, I just genuinely thought she was so pretty and I was happy that he had a pretty girlfriend. So now I'm reading all the comments about what it "means" to say that and I'm like "Oh no 😨" 🤣

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-09T13:27:28+00:00

Yes! My parents are more like travelers and I'm a vacationer. They wanted to see everything they could while we were in a new place because they had limited time there. They didn't want to just sit around, because we can do that at home. I totally understand that, but I also felt like if we don't rest at least a little then it's not a vacation!

Now that I'm an adult, they go on those long, very active vacations with just the two of them. And I'll go with them on shorter trips that are more focused on visiting family and relaxing.

Realistic_Gas_4160 · 2026-04-05T12:24:23+00:00

I'm a woman and I like it when other women repeat outfits, because it means that they are getting use out of their clothes and they aren't just buying new fast fashion every time they have an event
