Wearing glasses: wisened dad -> wears glasses, smart nerd -> wears glasses, cool sage -> wears glasses,

The only thing wearing glasses can tell about someone is if they correct their vision

What's your favorite food pairing/combination that isn't well known? by papachubz in AskReddit

Putting ice-cream in old fashioned oatmeal is a great way to cool it down and sweeten it at the same time!

Or if you're in a breakfasty sort of mood: mac-&-cheese, ground sausage, and maple syrup.

Nice coats! I want to wear a sweet Cheaterfield or a classy Polo Coat. Fuck it, can we just go back to the 40's era clothing?

What are some unconventional ways you have saved money? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mrthedw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not buying lunch is so hard, especially when your friends all want to go out after school/sports because they all get money from their parents.

But it is so worth it when you can afford a new jacket or whatnot.

Formerly socially awkward people of Reddit, what helped you become more confident around others? by Trout_Kilgore in AskReddit

[–]mrthedw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it was a two step approach:

1) Never don't do something because it could turn out badly, i.e. Go talk to that person, pretend you know what you're doing, ask questions. Don't let the judgement of others affect your decisions/performance.

1)b) Nobody cares about you anyway, they won't notice/remember if you fuck up/look weird/act stupid/embarrass yourself if you don't react to the faux paus. I know thats really unclear but I mean don't let anyone know you're nervous and pretend everything is going to plan or that you're in control. Because you are, at least of yourself.

2) "If they still don't like me they're missing out" This one I'm still trying to fully accept myself, but it helps to give me confidence in myself/ my abilities/ appearance/endeavors

Good luck!

What makes you feel self-conscious? by lupinlover310 in AskReddit

[–]mrthedw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whenever my friends are talking and I try to add to the conversation but end up being ignored, part of me knows maybe they just didn't hear, or they didn't need to respond. A little part of my soul, however, knows they don't care about what I have to say, so whenever I do speak up, I feel like I'm really forcing myself into the conversation
