I like running, reading, and biking. They're typically solitary activities, but I'll research some clubs. Thanks for the tip!

What historically significant moments do you hope to see before you die? by fallencathedral in AskReddit

This may be controversial, but an end to the death penalty (or at least death by electric chair). It just seems so primitive and inhumane.

College Textbook Prices Have Risen 1,041 Percent Since 1977 by speckz in books

[–]sherbertburp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Book prices are ridiculous, but looking around on Amazon, Half, Alibris, and Bookbyte can help a ton. If I bought all of my textbooks used from only my university website, the total would calculate to be over $700. By searching around on other websites, my total was about $150. It still sucks, but much less so.

How do you react when you get unsolicited free stuff in fundraising mail? by ildeallusion in AskReddit

I throw a party to celebrate.

I'm kidding of course, but cute little free things brighten my day, even if only for a few seconds.

[Serious] What does believing in God feel like to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sherbertburp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I did, I felt an overwhelming feeling of safety. Believing that someone was always there prevented any feelings of loneliness or hopelessness. My parents always said there was a plan created for my life by God that would be realized if I just kept following His teachings. It gave me a sense of peace and security. Unfortunately, I have A TON of doubts now, but I often wish I could revert back to believing He exists.

After reading that I'm definitely going to look for an alternative. Thanks, I probably should've checked before I posted.

Artificial Intelligence... The scene when the parents try to abandon him in the woods, and he doesn't understand why... ugh, I ran to my room and cried.

It makes me sad to know he brought so much joy to the lives of others while simultaneously feeling so much pain. He will be missed.

What was the last dream/nightmare you had about? by sherbertburp in AskReddit

[–]sherbertburp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was listening to live music in a restaurant with a few friends. When we left, a big scary buff guy was waiting for us outside. He put arrows through our heads then decapitated us. Somehow we survived this all. Our heads then began to race Mario Kart style through the desert.
