But on the other hand, why wouldn’t I want the person I have sex with to have a similar amount of life experience so we can have more interesting conversations?

This is genuinely the first I’m learning those aren’t a thing anymore in some places. I could swear I’ve seen them all over Europe.

Thanks for explaining, I’ll do that next time!

Man I was just bored. It takes less than half a second to scroll past a post you don’t like.

My 4 are: vinyl record, paper map, own a dictionary, write a post card.

That sounds rough! Glad it’s better now. I’m perfectly fine with sour stuff too, except on a completely empty stomach. Not quite cooked garlic has made me throw up before though.

Ah ok, thanks for the tip!

Except that imagining fields (not forces, if I’m thinking of the same illustrations as you) as lines is very very far from how deep it goes. Throughout physics education, most ppl go through several iterations of thinking you finally understand magnetism, then realizing you really fucking don’t, as it’s more complicated than you were taught previously.

Huh, how does ‘itll happen regardless [of t levels] IF you have the genetics’ mean ‘itll happen regardless OF genetics’? Am I being thick?

if you have the genetics for it

I wouldn’t even describe my hair as curly, but just as unwieldy. Since I’ve just embraced it, I get so many compliments on it. I do make the effort to get sulfate free shampoo, and brush it before washing, but that’s literally it. Trying to get them to clump into proper curls worked, but really really wasn’t worth the effort for me.

Edit:

How it looks when I just brush, wash (sulfite free shampoo, nothing else), let dry. Probably not everyone’s favourite but I love it like this and others have said they do too.

You’re the first person other than me I’ve heard has this problem. I have it with garlic, too. Either is fine when fully cooked, though. I don’t even have a sensitive stomach otherwise, I can eat chilis all day every day. Hbu?

Afaik as long as your primary sex hormone isn’t estrogen, you’re going to go bald regardless as long as you have the genetics for it.

Am physicist, unfathomable invisible being reaching out to attract random shit together is my best understanding of magnets anyway.

I REALLY hope my guy was in on it and it’s just cringe humor :(

Same. I don’t give my life story or even a detailed account of my day, but I’ll readily say things like ‘stressed’ or ‘tired’.

It absolutely isn’t a global thing. Many Europeans get confused when they first encounter it from a brit or american for the first time. My indian friend lived in the US for a year and never got used to it, would still occasionally accidentally answer for real.

Then there’s places where there’s a set, expected answer.

Like Ireland:

Alright?

Alright.

France:

Ça va?

Ça va (bien).

That’s just my experience!

I’m very lucky that my grandma passed a house on to me in her will, skipping her children. Not lucky enough to be able to renovate it to make it livable though, and install a legal heating system, so I continue to live in a 12m^2 and with four flatmates.

You could literally just save a copy to your desktop before you’re going to do something sensitive.

I’ve been wondering what creamer was, since it seems to be a US thing. I thought it was just sweetened cream or something. That sounds sooo weird. I’ll stick with soy milk for my coffee.
