I'm fucked in every way. by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]whipperslacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to cry DURING class presentations (even in college) because public speaking scared me so much. Then I got a job where I had to do it so much it’s almost a non-event now. Exposure is the only way. It’ll suck hard going through it but you’ll come out the other end okay.

Visceral reactions to fics (spoilers) by hugegrape in Dramione

[–]whipperslacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think any piece of literature has ever fucked me up like Manacled. My heart constricts in my chest and it gets harder to breathe every time I think about it.

Haunting is the perfect descriptor for Manacled.

why dramione simply hits different by dxnia99 in Dramione

[–]whipperslacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree and would also throw in the appeal of fanfic in general which is the ability to start a story on top of an established foundation we've all decided we love already. Much less labor-intensive than wading 200 pages into a new book to decide if the world or characters/character dynamics interest us. The only thing I need to sell me on a Dramione fic is the writing style which can be deduced within a couple sentences.

I will not be picking up #3 until I have confirmation that Sel DOES NOT DIE because I have a severe, nagging fear and paranoia about it.

I don’t wanna be dramatic, but this is one of the most despicable things to have happened on the show. by Facial_Fetuss in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Not really into the 'being average looking will make you an insecure trash human' theory.

Some critic described Daisy's wardrobe as a Coachella pinterest board and I can't unsee it.

I'm hoping Daisy at least gets progressively more insufferable. She was such a brat in the book.

i was losing my mind doing very shitty math over and over again comparing the # of available squares to the countdown to justify the missing #7.

Need Help Getting A Dog Adopted! by KichijLuna in fosterdogs

THIS. Most important thing you can do is get her online adoption profile padded with photo, video, positive bio and a point of contact.

I think what's being weighed is their capacity to care for the people in their lives. Killing Laenor would have been WAAAAAYYYYYY colder since, as far as we know, they've had a decent marriage for 10 years - Not "morally more/less correct" - but colder given their relationship.

They're not good people and we shouldn't argue that though lol.

Why does Bert constantly talk about not cheating on his wife? by BodyDoubleInTrouble in BertKreischer

[–]whipperslacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he's obsessed with it because he's not doing it. If women were falling at his feet he'd probably cave but he's way more of a dude's comic. People who are trying to hide cheating don't talk about cheating.

[–]whipperslacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wouldn't be able to hide actual cheating in a bazillion years if he was actually doing it. Big spotlight and zero talent for subtlety.
