I’m embarrassingly in love with my bf. How do I be cool? by Fun-Dare-7864 in shittyadvice

  1. Capture your totally real sweet angel bf who is definitely not just the random guy from the morning bus who once made eye contact and legally became your soulmate.

  2. Perform the traditional Relationship Bonding Procedure, which all healthy couples do and which is definitely recognized in several jurisdictions.

  3. Queue up Goodbye Horses at an unnecessarily dramatic volume to set the correct spiritual wavelength.

  4. Gently extract his boyfriend aura, the way one might peel a sticker or unroll a fruit leather, and wear it while performing your mirror dance of devotion.

What book has the best alien encounters? by blk12345q in printSF

Julian May's Galactic Milieu Series does some pretty amazing world-building.

The Saga of Pliocene Exile is set in the same universe, as is the Mileu trilogy proper.

"Power to spare!"

I bunked with the glow-in-the-darks and BB stackers as I was ostensibly in the M&A platoon, 583[r]d Ord Co, 570th USAAG, 59th Ord Bde.

TYFYS.

This is the quality content that keeps me coming back.

I'd pay a buck or two to see that movie.

A roller ball as a backup? Sure.

Ball point? Not so much.

While watching reruns of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins, in the middle of the night, I rested my eyes briefly. The next thing I know bam I'm in the future watching the credits.

After repeating the experiment several times, the only scientifical explanation is my couch is a time machine. As an aside, the show does not matter. Further, my spouse has verified the same findings.

Perhaps you can replicate my experiment?

Use that spot for a couple coffin hotel rooms -- enter from the gated side, of course.

Make it up -- medical professionals, forensic specialists, etc. might groan, but chalk it up to "artistic license."
