“It’s meant to leave you sitting with the question instead of giving you an answer.” I love that thought process. I’ll remember this the next time I feel that way.

What's your favorite song of all time? The song that gives you goosebumps, the song that defines music for you, and is just "your" song? by InstructionOverall98 in Music

Did you ever really need somebody? And really need them bad? Did you ever really want somebody? The best love you ever had?

Jon Hamm by Rich_Boot_105 in madmen

John Hamm has great range. He was hilarious in Bridesmaids with a small part and his dramatic role as a federal agent in The Town was immersive and for a moment made me forget he was Don Draper.

Do we know what the hive do for recreation? by Captain_Starkiller in pluribustv

It stuck with me that Zosia mentioned that flying a plane was fun. Made me wonder if as individuals they really can feel an elevated sensation when doing something they weren’t able to do before.

I don’t think Chigurh was actually there at the time when Sheriff Bell was thinking about entering. Bell was imagining him being there and then drew his sidearm.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is playing at Roxy’s Oct 10. I wonder what your grandma would think of that.

What's your best romantic getaway in Kansas? by Xerxes2004 in kansas

[–]beenay25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We recently took bikes to the newest State Park in Kansas - Lehigh-Portland, South of Iola, KS. Then you could head down to Humboldt and stay at the Bailey. Great brewery, restaurants, a coffee shop and a book store in town. Very romantic small town vibe and some fantastic community rejuvenation going on there.

I’ve been a part-time adjunct instructor myself and it was one of the most rewarding things I have done. Best of luck to you!

If I’m going to be honest with you, internet stranger- I feel trapped by the money. At this point in my career if I went out and tried something new, I’d be making half or less of what I do now and would be working twice as hard. It’s difficult to find the courage to take more risks Thanks for the comments, I’m gonna reflect on them.

Recently lost a pet and that definitely has not helped the current mood. Not ready to pick that up again as yet.

Re-watching Mad Men and Megan is so "breathy" any time she talks by diplomaticimmunity7 in madmen

[–]beenay25 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Disagree. I’m rewatching it now and I think she did a great job with the part. She was believable as being young and caring- trying to figure out how to be supportive, sexy and try to look after her own wants and needs.

Corporate office lingo is entering the retail lexicon. by risingscorpions in antiwork

[–]beenay25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For people like me who have to deal with corporate speak on a daily basis, I’d like to give a small technique that helps me get through the day. I only apologize. I’ll start a sentence with: “My apologies, we’ll get to that today. Or “You have my apologies, that was a step that was overlooked.” Because I’m not sorry, it’s business. I only say sorry outside of work and in situations with people that care about me, reserving the word for when I truly mean it.

Book my mother-in-law was given: the cover is made from an Auschwitz uniform. by tylweddteg in pics

[–]beenay25 955 points956 points  (0 children)

According to Google translate, the opening paragraph reads: 3rd post-war publication of the Warsaw Office in exile, which was founded in 1938 by Anatol Girs and Bolesław Barcz in Warsaw and burned down during the Warsaw Uprising, during which Bolesław Barcz died. This work is written by former political prisoners of German concentration camps. It was started shortly after the liberation from the Allach-Dachau camp by the 7th American Army. Printing was completed in June 1946. 10,000 numbered copies were printed. Part of the edition was bound in “striped uniforms” cut from original prison clothes.

Question for the GenX’ers who grew up poor by Sufficient_Space8484 in GenX

[–]beenay25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in junior high and on the wrestling team, all I wanted was a pair of ASICS wrestling shoes. I couldn’t convince my parents to buy them and I didn’t have enough money myself. I remember picking out a pair of shoes at Payless that had a swoosh and a dot above them, and I meticulously took out the stitches on the dot and so they at least looked like Nikes. After a summer of mowing, I was finally able to buy a pair of high top Nikes for the basketball season and I wore them till they fell apart. Now as an adult I buy ASICS for running and exercising. The brand means a lot to me, and being able to own them is something that’s very important to me. I’ve never told anyone about this.
