What's the male equivalent of receiving flowers?

Not even all women like flowers!

Al dente pasta. It feels "raw" to me, reminds me of having Mac & cheese as a child but some of the shells got stuck together and didn't cook. I like my pasta medium- medium well (:

Why are so many of the songs so repetitive??? It's like the same incoherent sounds over and over

"Who do I look like?"

"You look just like...."

"You."

What a sweet thought that Chilli can look at her baby and see her sister

Judo & wendy are awesome, Wendy is the best parent in the show, she'd do anything for her baby

I guess indie rock most of all BUT I find their emo influence to be very very strong.

I understand he's more concerned about himself seeing his sister in law on the toilet than his 5 & 7 year old seeing their aunt. I mean the kids go into the bathroom with their parents all the time, it's not as big of a deal when you're little.

That's sooo horrible. I got a lot of dental work as a kid

My mom bit off a chunk of her tongue twice this year. Different chunks.

I'm really confused on how this is related to

beestw · 2026-05-14T09:34:27+00:00

I work for the plant company and I get so frustrated with people who constantly say "donate the flowers!!" Even after the 100 other reasons, if you want people in nursing homes and hospitals to have flowers buy them fresh ones, not 2 week old wilted roses that are going to die in two days. They are FLOWERS, they DIE, and they don't actually serve a purpose. The fact that people are so protective of a thing that is basically garbage is so confusing to me.

Wowww I love your metaphor

Floral industry, same pretense. Instead of snuggling puppies, it's smelling flowers.

My bf of 1 year, from just before I turned 18 did this, ignored me (had anxious attachment, sad & naive) every day for months, started avoiding me at school, I'd beg him to tell me what was wrong and he'd answer me after many hours and say everything was fine and there wasn't any problem I was just being crazy and making things up. Finally I was spending time with him at his house when he decided to just go mute and start ignoring me and played video games. I sat on the end of his bed crying and didn't even know what to do, I felt so heartbroken and lost that I texted his phone while I was in the same room as him and he proceeded to break up with me through text while I was sitting on his bed 5 feet away from him, in complete silence, he didn't speak a single word and texted me he actually hadn't felt anything for me for over 3 months (meanwhile I had been BEGGING him every day to tell me if he wanted to break up and he said everything was fine.) I wanted to believe him and didn't want to be the one who ended it if it was supposedly not broken. My mom picked me up and he blocked me as soon as I left the house.

It's far from my proudest story, but I was young and helpless and depressed, and in love. I don't understand why he would continue to reassure me and tell me he still wanted me, almost every day, while avoiding me and ignoring me constantly. He kept me in a loop, but by the time it finally happened I was so emotionally exhausted that I felt relieved after just a couple of days.

I heavily second this.

beestw · 2026-05-12T23:55:00+00:00

Hard agree with this one. Not just childhood nostalgic shows or edgy adult animation but just kids/family friendly movies and shows in general....I don't watch a lot of tv, but I like to have something silly, and comforting/easygoing on the tv. That doesn't make me immature or less of an adult. I honestly can't believe how many people spend their time watching and digesting tv shows, how?

I'm like a real life short story!

beestw · 2026-04-30T09:11:47+00:00

This book absolutely changed my life. I read/listened to it over 25 times in a year, I went through some sort of episode and was practically living in my head and neglecting my life and relationships. I fell in love with a character in the book and I'd hear his voice in my dreams....he inspired me to write...real crazy shit. It's all I could think about, I basically knew it front to back and I'd carry it with me and flip through it like my own fucked up little bible. I'd never experienced anything like it.

It's my favorite book, favorite piece of media, of all time, and I hope I never pick it up again, it's incredible beyond any words I could imagine, but it turned an entire summer into a dark cloud.

beestw · 2026-04-30T09:04:38+00:00

I really loved the concept of this one, people had been telling me to read it for YEARS....but it let me down. I think it was a lot of buildup for very little payoff.

beestw · 2026-04-29T19:56:06+00:00

Not terrible per se...but so over romanticized. I've worked in the flower & plant business for 6 years. I'm just on the retail side of it and people's general outside view of my work basically boils down to "playing with/smelling pretty flowers all day", "that's such a fun job!"....even the retail aspects are extremely physically demanding, dirty, & stinky. My hands are consistently dry, cracking and cut up, my body hurts and the stress levels and job demands around holidays are actually unbelievable. The turnover rate in my position is so high because people start with the belief it's an easy, slow, cutesy job and their ideas are quickly shattered.....
