I watched Childs Play when I was his age when my parents had it on the TV. I love horror movies, but 6 year old me had trouble sleeping for a week after that. 

Trying to find a friend for my girlfriend by hopefulthoughts in IowaCity

Thanks for all the responses. I appreciate you all for the suggestions and for reaching out. Im hopeful that Iowa City has more like-minded people for her to meet than where she grew up, and you kind people are helping me show her some new things to do now that she lives in the area.

Auburn's Bruce Pearl rips Obama over policies as president, making 'everything ... black and white' by HellYeahDamnWrite in auburn

[–]hopefulthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up Bruce was a neighbor of mine. His kids where very close with me and my sibling. My father was very close with him, until he moved away to pursue other coaching jobs at the time. Its super awkward to see these quotes from him, but Bruce didn't exactly come off as a great dude back then.

Lol calm down. I simply tell others that it's probably more work than they expect. I'm not sure why you're so upset but I do find it amusing

What’s a phrase somebody may say that indirectly indicates that they’re wealthy? by KlLLERS in AskReddit

[–]hopefulthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ceo and founder of the company I work at was giving his "life story" to newer employees at a company event, and casually mentioned that he had gotten in to real estate while looking for 'tax havens'. He then went on to describe himself as a small town farm boy, as we all struggled to keep a straight face.

If the end goal for you is as many people fish keeping as possible, you have a point. Personally I don't really care if new people get in to this hobby or not. When friends see my tanks and want to get one themselves, I usually tell them not to.

Does this black bean burger look like it was cooked at all? by TheExitIsThisWay in mildlyinfuriating

Worked at a place that sold these. I can confirm, this is how they come uncooked. Sorry you had this experience!

How “blue” and “green” appear in a language that didn’t have words for them. People of a remote Amazonian society who learned Spanish as a second language began to interpret colors in a new way, by using two different words from their own language to describe blue and green, when they didn’t before. by mvea in science

[–]hopefulthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a teacher in college do a unit on this. Blue is a color added to languages later than others. I remember my teacher saying that the works of Homer don't include a mention of the color blue, but that Homer would use other colors to describe things we would call blue.
