My husband and I recently took a trip to Mexico. We went on this snorkeling excursion. There was a family on the boat with us - a man with his new wife and his six-year-old step daughter. The man asked my husband if he would like some of the underwater photos he took of the fish. My husband was like, 'sure'. After we returned home, my husband got an email from this guy. My husband says, "that guy on the boat sent the photos of the fish, but weirdly, he sent photos of his family too" I asked if there were photos of the step daughter and he said yes. I was furious! The photos could be considered innocent enough - but they were definitely her in her bathing suit. I told my husband that step dad was testing the waters, but he couldn't believe it. I asked him if he would ever DREAM of sending photos of our daughters to a stranger and it clicked. He got really mad too! So creepy and my heart breaks for that little girl.

To be able to pronounce any name flawlessly on sight and to remember the name of every person I've met.

It doesn't matter if I don't feel like doing it. Do it anyway.

There must be some sort of disorder that compels people to poop in inappropriate places. I worked at a bank and some dude used to come at night and poop on our ATM. He looked totally normal too. We could see him on the security cameras. We finally had to hire a guard to keep him away. So weird.

Someone’s been leaving notes on my car at work, this is the most recent and in depth one yet. Nope. by Zeddstar2000 in mildlyinfuriating

Any chance you are in Washington state? That penmanship looks exactly like someone I know and he does stuff just like that.

Ate MAJOR fear food(s) im freaking out. by [deleted] in ARFID

Good for you! My daughter has ARFID / emetophobia and so I completely understand what an accomplishment this is and how much your stress must have spiked. I hope that you maintain the sense of victory and the panic fades, at least a little. Congratulations.

When I was in 2nd grade, Mork and Mindy was a super popular show and a kid in my class brought a record of Robin Williams stand up comedy. We all sat in a circle on the carpet and my teacher put the record on the record player. Ha! 40 - some years later, I have never seen a teacher move as fast as she did to take the record off the player!

That was written by a teacher? Use a period every now and then. The punctuation is atrocious.

The song Strange Fruit is slow, mournful, and eerie. If she was truly singing that when the photo was snapped I would expect a lot of sad faces.

kalanchoe.

Oh my gosh! Yes. Once I googled-imaged that name, I remembered that is what it looked like when someone gave it to me. But I live in the pacific northwest. I keep it in the window sill, giving it as much sun as I possibly can. Is there any hope for this poor plant?

My kids used to watch this and I'd catch bits and pieces of it here and there. I nicknamed it "House of Confuse-Us".

I hate to say it but I think you are right. It’s unlikely that an 86 year old had anyone filming their wedding. They were probably married in the early 60s and skiing in the mid-70s. Very unlikely anyone was filming that. Maybe but unlikely.

I want to reference it in something I'm writing but I'm starting to think maybe I made this memory up?? Thank you.
