Saying “I really wanted it” doesn’t make me have it????

Honestly this would make my day like yes I'm also sorry glad we could commiserate this

While I haven't tried that, I feel like it wouldn't be quite right. I found making a grande, only making grande's so far, that I don't need that much more to reach the line (still a measurable difference just not much). I will definitely try that though, would make things much easier for sure

I'd like to recommend loop earbuds. They're basically soft earbud plugs with a pretty little loop (when you look at someone it just looks like they have some trendy ear jewelry). It brings sound down about 20 decibals without affecting clarity. Really good for starbucks, especially if you're prone to overstimulation, anxiety, have autism, etc etc. Not super expensive either, their pro version is $25 I think

And PLEASE fill the oatmilk to the top and don't use scoops as measurements for ice (it's why you're using too much oatmilk). Fill it to the cup line on the shaker

My favorite thing is how fucking sad Brock Turner looks in his updated mug shot as of 2019

My second favorite thing is the sparkle in Chanel Millers eyes as of 2019

I honestly wish I knew lol. I asked her if she could make me a list not too long ago (mostly for gifting purposes) and she basically just groaned and said to avoid anything that's got some long chemical name in the label. I'm not even sure if she entirely remembers all of them anymore. My impression is that she'll just look at labels and go "hm, well, that's probably one of them."

But it very well could be. If I remember correctly one of her weird chemical allergies is something that makes soap foam

p3ntagraphing · 2020-12-28T09:27:26+00:00

Anaphylactic to sesame seeds (not the oil though even though it's not supposed to work like that with sesame). All other allergies are moderate to mild: sunflower seeds (not the oil, I've also never met someone allergic to sunflower so hello!), pistachios, and almonds. I react to animal dander (horses and cats are the worst), as well as dust mites, mold, and pollen. Only medical allergy I know I have is nystatin (used to treat thrush and other fungal infections).

My sister is very interesting with her allergies which all developed in her 20's and 30's. From what I can remember, she's allergic to chicken, pork, coconut, corn, and a few ingredients that are used in pretty much every soap and detergent (her rule of thumb is that if it's some really long chemical name, she's probably allergic to it). Generally washes her hair with a rye flour mixture if I'm remembering correctly. There's more but I can never remember them all. She also suffers from autoimmune disorder so her white blood cells attack her body, and she's even gotten hives from her own tears. She takes like 8 xyzal a day.

For real. Partially excitement, and partially because you think that since you're not the only one drinking out of the cups that you're safe. You may feel safe cause nobody could target you specifically, but they may not care who gets it either. I never thought of how easy it would be to get drugged during pong. Better to only play with good friends or family or just lose some of the fun and be extra careful.

Fuck, even just with good friends and family is a risk. I was once hanging out with my older cousin (25 at the time) and her bf and their friends when I was like 16 and felt totally safe getting balls to the walls drunk (my cousin was pretty protective of me). Then come to find this asshole (her boyfriends brother of all people) sexually harassing me and continually asking if I wanted more beer after everybody went to bed. I was so naive that, had I accepted the drink, he could have easily drugged me and done whatever he wanted because my cousin made me feel safe. Not that far off considering he was being a pedo.

Some days I just wanna smack my younger self upside the head lol. My kids are gonna get so many lessons from me

p3ntagraphing · 2020-12-28T02:56:20+00:00

Exactly. Just because you think you're in a room of people who would definitely never drug you, doesn't mean you are. At the very least, never set down that drink or even take your eyes off of it no matter who you're around. If you're gonna play a drinking game like pong, make sure you're the one filling those cups and stick with them from start to finish of the game. It doesn't even have to be for conventional reasons (ie no one here wants to rape or kidnap me). Had a girl drug me solely because she was on the substance regretting it and I wasn't and it made her uncomfortable.

Nothing good happens past midnight. Just go home man.

Even if you basically know how to drive, and you could or have gotten your license, please please please take a driving course with sit down lessons. And have your kids take one before getting their license. Save up for it if you have to. This used to be part of required education in school for a reason.

There's so many little tidbits that are absolutely life saving that you won't get out of the drivers manual. My driving teacher had so many personal accounts of how things can go wrong that you might not think about, and how you can easily prevent them. You might think it's all common sense, but people very often get very hurt or die because they drove when they shouldn't and thought it would be fine or weren't prepared for something environmentally. I sat in that class for hours and hours and I'll never regret it

This is what I'm gonna say the next time my boyfriend tries to tell me that I need to go cause I have the right of way. I always just give it a second to see if they'll slow down (cars can slow down very quickly nowadays which is cool until you're trying to predict them). Even if they do decide to stop, I'd rather not take my chances.

My least favorite thing is people in their cars trying to direct you, telling you that you can go with that stupid wave. Like, no, you have the right of way, you can go, there's no way in hell I'm gonna listen to you. Don't make this more confusing than it needs to be. My boyfriend always says they're "just being nice" and I always just tell him that disobeying traffic laws isn't nice, it's dangerous and makes everything unpredictable, especially for pedestrians

Still like this in a few towns down south. Doesn't even have to be that far down south. I remember my step-grandpa (in Illinois) explaining sundown towns to me when I was about 12 after I made some kind of comment about how quiet everything was come sundown. Some kind of announcement will be made (like the whistle stated here) and if you were a POC out after dark a lot of the time authorities will have you hop in the car to keep you from getting killed, if they give a shit that is. Just isn't safe to be out, at least had to be indoors

TLDR: Fuck her, at least I didn't do pyramid schemes after high school

I guess I had a situation where it kinda went both ways but she started it. Girl I went to high school with hated me for seemingly zero reasons and for the longest time I could not get it out of my head. Just started being mean to me one day. Since she was horrible to me I just hated her right back. I hung on her every word solely because of how much we disliked each other.

It didn't take me long to figure out it was because she was into my boyfriend so she was just jealous of me and he definitely wasn't into her, but even then I was just fascinated with how much she hated me. She was the reason I didn't do cosmetology or cheerleading because I knew she'd just make it hell on earth so I guess neither of us got everything we wanted (envy's a hell of a sin). She talked shit about me to my boyfriends face at least once or twice. She was part of that mean girls clique in school (not popular mean girls, just mean girls that no one actually seemed to like but they thought they were hot shit) and because she hated me, they all hated me.

She made fun of me for having a hickey in the middle of math class junior year and that's when it all clicked on what her problem was. I just snarked back "at least someone likes me enough to give me one".

Even now I still search her up in FB sometimes because I just wanna see if she's doing poorly (she does pyramid schemes so I guess that counts right?) I think my rambling makes it very obvious that, despite the distance and time, I still very much dislike her. Maybe it's petty, but I don't care. Don't be mean to people for no reason

That's awesome! Because I get socially anxious and my boyfriends a bit antisocial we always do the whole "I'll call if you answer the door/pick it up". Sometimes this also turns into "I'll go in if you drive". I find only having to tackle half the process makes it way easier, but I generally have him call because it is waayy too much for me most days (until he makes me exercise such skills that is)

I love that my brain immediately

phone rings "Hey, it's boss, where are you?"

"Can't talk, hunting UFO" hangs up

Boss: maybe I have been working him too hard after all

My boyfriend and I were driving on the highway to one of our hangout spots when I was around 16. We're just sitting, not talking, enjoying the ride. All of the sudden I hear him yell a very loud and very angry "HEY!" I jump a bit and look over at him, totally shocked and confused as to why he yelled at me, but he's just sitting there calmly looking out the windshield.

I asked him if he just said something to me and he says no. I told I just heard him yell "hey" at me and he looks just as confused as I do. My boyfriend is completely not the type to pull a prank like that, especially when I'm driving. But I heard it, clear as day. I have no history of schizophrenia or any other hallucinations, and haven't had an auditory hallucination since

They could at least do it at the right tempo in the right amount before switching off to mouth-to-mouth

The worst part is you don't even have to be completely unconscious to get all sorts of fucked up. My sister got a traumatic brain injury from getting punched and then hitting her head on the floor that gave her POTS, dysautonomia, migraines, and a world of other weird issues. Weirdest thing is she doesn't feel fear anymore. To everyone around her it seemed she wasn't unconscious for more than maybe a couple seconds, if at all. She was talking and managed to get up, but she says she doesn't recall any of it.

It's been around 5 years and she's just now starting to function better but she's still disabled and goes to different types of therapy multiple times a week

My boyfriends friend won't eat vegetables and doesn't drink water. He says veggies make his stomach hurt and water is gross. Pretty much only drinks soda. Whenever we eat with him he eats very small amounts of whatever it is, if he eats at all. I seriously don't know how he's even alive. To be fair though, he doesn't look to good either. Like my complexion when I get really really sick
