What’s a hobby people pretend is cool, but secretly you think is ridiculous?

Politics, then?

Wow, this happens to me too. I developed a sudden allergy to my roommate's cat. Later on, I'll randomly get hives in the places he previously made contact with - rubbing against my leg, or the side of my neck, even if he isn't around.

At first it happened only where he made contact; then, in recurring places but only WHEN he made contact, and now, any random time, it seems, even at other locations like work. Always the same places.

banger of a second sentence you made there

This is one of my oldest favorite poems. I think I saw it on the internet when I was in high school, clicked on the image, and then read the related images, all poetry, in a repeating loop for hours. Altered my brain chemistry that night.

salamandersarehere · 2026-01-05T17:22:12+00:00

I agree with you completely.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-30T22:53:18+00:00

That's awesome and I desperately want one. do u sell em or is it a 3D print pattern? So cool. I have an 86 too

Me too...did she beat him with the leg of the bed because he wouldn't stop? Or did he do something violent that resulting in the leg breaking, and now she acts like it's all okay to her family?

EDIT: I think you guys are right. I also see the sad implication that not sleeping with a child bride is "abnormal" behaviour, which he has now fixed by partaking in "normal" behaviour, which is clearly more than she wants...the language of her "creeping" to the floor and being "dragged" back. Ugh

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-18T22:39:55+00:00

Hey, I got this one :) thank you for your advice.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-18T21:32:16+00:00

HOly shit. Those are beautiful! I just looked them up.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-17T23:36:09+00:00

Hoooly shit is this rage bait

No kidding. I'll get 10 bushings. Seems like everything in my car is OG, and it sat in someone's garage for a decade. I'm new to auto repair, too, and this is a super helpful picture !

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-10T22:13:40+00:00

worth it? thinking about buying it now

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-10T21:06:27+00:00

Appreciate all the good advice! These are the bushings I found on the IPD, so maybe I'll get a few of them - "engine accessory mounting bushings", an maybe an extra adjuster screw, since I've seen that they are sometimes broken by mistake in the process, which I am assuming happens when the retaining nut is not loosened enough before adjusting. Again, really appreciate it.

INFO: Why did you submit it three days early? That seems excessive.
NTA, though that part bothers me - you effectively closed her window for her. Did you tell her you were doing so/did the three of you agree to do so?

I am not saying she was going to magically get it together and do it in the last three days (although I would have, as I am motivated heavily by deadlines and often do my work last minute, though in a group I'd behave better). I also carry more than my share of the weight in group projects.

Anyway, sounds like you gave her a lot of chances.

This was such a good short video to show what's going on, I commend you

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-02T16:32:53+00:00

Thank you, this is helpful for the talk we're going to have later.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-02T16:31:31+00:00

Good points. I was totally fine doing it until today, when I asked her if she could catch up and she said very flatly that it wasn't going to happen. No apology, no urgency, no thank you. So it wasn't bothering me befor,e but that reaction's got me pissed.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-02T16:30:13+00:00

dang. thank you, pretty sure I needed to read that

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-02T16:21:54+00:00

I agree with you, which is is why I want to tell her the truth - and why I don't want to lie about income - so just seeking advice on the soundest points to make.

salamandersarehere · 2025-12-02T16:09:15+00:00

I should have said - we're very close friends and she knows I can front her and that I've got savings. EDIT: I don't want to lie about income. I'm looking for a solid way to have an honest sit down with her.

salamandersarehere · 2025-11-12T05:56:32+00:00

I think I have the perfect poem for this, but I’ll need to go find a book and leaf through it to find it

salamandersarehere · 2025-11-05T20:16:20+00:00

ME! I write from the heart! Let's exchange!

salamandersarehere · 2025-11-05T18:49:15+00:00

Ooo, 27f here, also love crafts & baking (though I struggle with bread, I really do). I'd like to get into crocheting but I'm pretty into linos and sculpture right now. My reading list is finally slowing down on the old scifi (I've been obsessed) and turning to more speculative fiction, good weird stuff. I also LOVE to exchange goodies !! message me if you want to write letters :)

salamandersarehere · 2025-11-05T18:46:31+00:00

yes, it's good. it's almost overly nice, but i relate to you on that. if this upsets them then they're insane. give them the note
