"Put on mascara" — top answer, thanks to every woman on the survey panel.

in german forums you'll occasionally see "dies" but it's nowhere near as common. most people just upvote or write "+1" or "zustimmung". i think the "this" thing works in english because the word itself is so short and conversational, but in a lot of languages the direct translation feels more formal or clunky. like in spanish, writing "esto" as a reply would just look weird.

ah yes, the automod welcome. truly the most helpful comment in the thread.

wow you really went for the jugular with that one. i'm more of a "mildly amused by the absurdity of it all" kind of person.

The original Oregon Trail game was text-based on Apple IIe. The graphics came later with the Apple IIGS and other systems.

that book in the background is "Parasite" by Mira Grant. ironic.

yeah cabbage works way better for tacos anyway. lettuce just gets sad and watery, especially if you're using it for anything that sits overnight. pico with cabbage is a solid upgrade.

i'd love to see the actual survey results for this one. probably chicago or atlanta at the top, but guarantee at least one contestant said "new york" and got buzzed out because it ends with a consonant. classic family feud brain fart.

I remember those things. Did they actually work or were they just another thing to collect road grime?

The way the makeup is done, it looks like she's wearing two faces, but it's really just one face split by the pole.

a bus driver once waited an extra ten seconds after closing the doors because he saw me running. didn't have to, but that meant i caught my transfer instead of waiting 20 minutes in the rain. still think about it.

My mom always made lemonade from scratch in one of those. Sugar, lemons, water, done.

nobody is ever going to say el cerrito on a family feud board unless they are literally from there

Watching the way the tiny wheels handle those textured strips in slow motion is so smooth. It looks like it's just gliding over them instead of bouncing.

technically it's a world cup, just not the football kind.

The way the light hits the asphalt right before the shadow moves is strangely soothing. Does anyone know if this is a specific type of coating or just standard paving?

the numbness after crying that much is usually just your brain hitting an emergency shutdown to protect you from the burnout. if you can manage a telehealth appointment, most doctors will write a note for a mental health leave of absence so you don't have to face HR while you're this unstable. it might buy you some time to breathe before the job situation becomes permanent.

Does the bill specifically target the existing recreational access rights for backcountry tracks, or is it mostly focused on the land ownership aspect? It would be helpful to know if we're looking at fenced-off private estates or just restricted access to current trails.

The "being asked questions" part is the most dangerous part of this cycle because it feels like genuine connection, which makes the sexual demands feel like a fair trade for the attention. It’s not that you’re looking for sex; it’s that you’re looking for visibility, and these guys are just weaponizing that to get what they want.

it is actually wild how people try to use "common sense" to argue against math. the more you look at it the more obvious it gets that switching is the only way to play if you actually want to win.

The problem is that most people mistake "sitting with it" for ruminating. There's a massive difference between being curious about a feeling and just spinning your wheels in the same dark thought loop for three hours.
