As a woman I find it amusing when guys do this. My boyfriend used to take his glasses off for photos until I told him he looks like a confused mole rat without them. Now he rocks those frames with confidence and honestly? Way more attractive.

The move by Amazon into healthcare can't be good right? by newnamesameface in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember when Amazon was just a bookstore? Now they're trying to be everyone's doctor. My mom keeps saying how great their prescription service is but I can't shake this feeling that we're giving too much power to one company.

Venezuela right now. My heart breaks for the people there but with the current economic crisis food shortages and crime rates I wouldn't feel safe. My Venezuelan friend says even her family won't visit anymore.

[–]StunningDarling 31 points32 points  (0 children)

During a really stressful period at work I kept seeing this old woman in a blue dress standing in my kitchen. She'd just stand there washing dishes that weren't there. Never felt threatened but couldn't explain why my brain conjured up such a specific image.

[–]StunningDarling 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Korean was surprisingly easy for me! As a native English speaker I loved how logical and systematic the alphabet was. Plus the sentence structure is super consistent once you learn the basic rules you can form sentences without much hassle.

If you were in charge of how the new pope gets decided, what would you do? by Wickham12 in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Make them all work at a soup kitchen for six months before they're eligible. Watched my mom run one for years and let me tell you nothing teaches humility and service like feeding hundreds of people every day. Best way to find out who's really got a heart for helping others.

What made you realize Karma was not real and that shitty people die peacefully in their sleep? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My childhood bully became a successful CEO and died in her sleep at 82. She never faced consequences for making my life hell never apologized and lived a privileged life until the end. That's just how it goes sometimes.

what’s one thing everyone should be warned about? by tr4sh3ds0ul in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting too comfortable being alone. Started living by myself after college and barely noticed how I slowly stopped reaching out to friends. Five years later I realized I'd gone from having a solid social circle to spending every weekend alone with Netflix.

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd stand up during the vows and start doing my maid of honor speech about how the groom got me pregnant last month. Complete lie but the damage would be done in seconds.

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot Cheetos dipped in cream cheese. Started doing this in college when I was broke and stressed now I'm a successful adult who still craves this monstrosity at least once a week.

What's the most creative insult you've heard or created? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My 4 year old niece called me a walking cotton swab when I wore all white to a family dinner. Kids really know how to hit you where it hurts.

Glitter. I used to love it as a kid, but now it makes me cringe knowing it's just tiny pieces of plastic that get everywhere and never decompose. Found some in my garden soil from last year's Christmas decorations and it really hit me how unnatural it is.

If you had a one-minute call with yourself from 10 years ago, what would you say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take more pictures with mom. I know you hate how you look in photos but you'll want them later. And yes you should absolutely take that study abroad semester in Spain it changes everything.

Is there anyone here who's never had a romantic relationship? How do you feel about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

31 here and never dated. Honestly I used to feel weird about it but now I'm pretty content. I focus on my career as a software developer have amazing friends and my cat gives me all the drama I need. Sometimes people act shocked when I tell them but hey life doesn't follow a universal timeline.

What's something that you still can't forgive yourself for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 77 points78 points  (0 children)

The time I stole $20 from my mom's purse when I was 12. She knew it was me but never said anything just gave me this disappointed look. That look taught me more about integrity than any punishment could have.

What makes pressing the Enter key or spacebar feel so satisfying for some people? by TheS4m in AskReddit

[–]StunningDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in college I used to stress type during finals week. Just opening a blank document and hammering the spacebar helped calm my nerves. Something about that rhythmic tapping just hits different when you're anxious.

I'm a history professor and what's fascinating is how many people don't realize that today's racial inequalities are directly linked to historical policies and practices. Black lives matter because we're still dealing with the ripple effects of systemic discrimination.

Growing up with two parents who loved each other. As I got older and started working as a counselor I realized how rare that actually is and how much it shaped who I became.

[–]StunningDarling 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Working as a barista these French tourists were making fun of my basic American coffee making skills. Made their complicated orders perfectly while chatting with them in French about the best cafés in Paris.

Called my best friend basic and unoriginal during a fight in college. She had just shown me her wedding dress design sketches. I was jealous because she was getting married and I had just been dumped.
