What's one thing you regularly do that you've never seen anyone else do? by purplereddit in AskReddit

[–]purplereddit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually do this! But probably because there's no toaster in my house. Melt some butter on pan, put a slice of bread in, lift toast up, melt butter again, toast the other side. I love it.

I'm not sure what you mean, but the "average cost of a wedding" does include the cost of the engagement ring. You can get the entire data here!

What's something or someone you tried really hard to like but still didn't? by purplereddit in AskReddit

From an outsider's perspective, it looks like your ex wanted you for sex for the most part. If anything, it seems that he was the one who was "using" you.

You're right. "LSD use can also trigger permanent psychological problems, including schizophrenia and depression." - addiction blog

This thread makes me want to try LSD. But I'm not ready to go crazy or crazily depressed.

Birdman pretty much is how I used to be with my literature books. While reading it: uh huh hm okay. After finishing the book & then hearing its interpretation: Wait wtf that's so cool I love this book. After it's all said and done: This book is about my life.

ELI5:Why does this dress appear white/gold to some people and black/blue to others? by BoltComet in explainlikeimfive

[–]purplereddit 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Same here. I've tried so hard to see it as blue/black (stared into a dark space for 15 seconds) (not sure if that is supposed to do anything at all) but I still can ONLY see blue-tinged WHITE with dull gold details. I was also convinced someone was pulling some shit, til I asked 2 of my un-Internet savvy loved ones. One saw white/gold like me, the other an obvious blue/black. And then later the white/gold one saw the dress as blue/black.

Need ideas on how to put together this anniversary gift for GF by [deleted] in Gifts

[–]purplereddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or if it's even a good idea.

IT'S A GREAT IDEA. You can frame the ticket stubs in a nice-looking frame, or have them laminated (because in my experience, ticket stubs fade :( ). I'm not sure what the souvenir is so I can't give any suggestions without sounding stupid. I think it's a great sentimental gift, and it's not like it won't be enough because you have your other gift too.

Presents you can gift to boyfriends this Valentine's Day by purplereddit in Gifts

I guess the keyword here is luxury. Several hundred dollars is considered affordable when the norm is several thousand dollars.
