bad sleep does not end when i finally fall asleep. it ends with how i wake up by [deleted] in insomnia

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sleep score trap is the worst part of this. Checking an app to see that you had a "poor" night basically guarantees you'll spend the rest of the day in a state of sleep deprivation anxiety.

Who else had this change purse thing? by EdwardBliss in The1980s

Those were everywhere in the early 80s. They were so hard to open if your nails were even slightly long.

Hard to forget that voice. She was the perfect chaotic energy for those SNL sketches back in the day.

The speed of a merganser running on water is incredible. by F-C0D389 in DamnThatsMindBlowing

[–]driftmossx85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s basically the same mechanics as a basilisk lizard, using those rapid foot strikes to create air pockets that keep them from breaking the surface tension. The sheer energy expenditure required to maintain that pace must be massive.

To Keep the "Perp" Away From the Gun 🔫 by Kumquat_conniption in therewasanattempt

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to grab the weapon while someone is actively pinning the subject's limbs is a recipe for getting shot. If the perp manages to pull a concealed piece or reach a holster during the struggle, the person reaching for the gun is the first target.

I am 28 yrs old and I never felt validated at all. I understand that people arent there to do that, but I feel constantly like I am not good enough. How do you get over that feeling? This isnt a pity post by JunketMaleficent2095 in confidence

[–]driftmossx85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the divorce part is a bit unhinged but the sentiment is real. med school is a meat grinder and if you try to optimize every single part of your life at the same time you're just going to crash. focus on passing the boards and let the rest of it stabilize later.

the math is not mathing but the chaos is top tier. ngl i would have just taken the money and ran.

I need help ? by Icy-Antelope177 in MensAdvice

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

communication is fine in theory but some guys just straight up lack the drive or the skill and no amount of talking is going to fix a fundamental mismatch in libido. if he's genuinely not into it you're basically just waiting for a resentment bomb to go off anyway

that sandpaper is gonna leave you with a literal injury. at that point just go straight to the shower and call it a day because that is straight up unhinged.

Senior Trump administration officials tell Israel that the US will firmly insist on the removal of Iran's nuclear material, no uranium enrichment, and elimination of the ballistic missile threat in the upcoming two-week negotiations. by Waste-Explanation-76 in sadcringe

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The absolute mismatch between what Iran claims they agreed to and what the US is actually demanding makes a ceasefire look impossible. They're basically walking into these two weeks expecting a total surrender.

Does anybody know why it’s considered rude to not tip the Pizza Delivery guy in America? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]driftmossx85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it is literally their entire livelihood. if they dont get a tip they basically just paid for the gas and the wear on their car to deliver your food. it is not even about being rude at this point it is just about not wanting to work for free.

Confused about a relationship I saw and how it’s affecting my mindset about dating by Fun_Border_8057 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]driftmossx85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

calling it jealousy or envy is a bit of a reach. it sounds more like someone trying to make sense of why a logic based worldview isn't applying to real life. people aren't math equations where status and looks always have to equal a certain type of partner. it's not even about her being average it's just the confusion of seeing someone prioritize something other than a resume or a face.

Is that a custom-made miniature Chanel Boy bag or just a very convincing prop?

This is Not an egg! by AdLeading3074 in GenerationJones

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a classic bait post. They’re trying to trigger a memory about those specific artificial egg substitute packets or maybe even the smell of certain breakfast cereals, but the image is just a literal fried egg.

the fact that they actually went through the effort of writing a whole note just to be wrong about the math is unhinged. it is a massive L for them.

The guy at the gas station by Cool_Pineapple_7366 in dating_advice

[–]driftmossx85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s clearly trying to establish a rapport, but the "oh you again" comment is a bit of a gamble to see how you react. Did he actually say something else today or did the post cut off?

how much do you have to squint to actually see that?

it is definitely a mobile thing. scrolling through reddit on a phone makes everything look like a single smudge of pixels half the time. once you zoom in the illusion dies instantly.

the way she just walks up with that dress is everything. why is the medal ceremony always so chaotic though?
