  • When it gets cold enough outside, it kind of hurts to breath because the cold air kind of stings the inside of your lungs.

  • What does masturbating or having sex physically feel like to you guys?

    Jump

  • Is there an alternative way that I can get the endorphins and elation despite not having the physical sensation? It has always been a goal of mine to feel that despite not being a human like the rest of you.

  • I'm confused though. Don't people use this to talk about how small things like bugs can fall from a large height and be uninjured, but large things like a human or elephant will be injured if falling from a height? I feel like what you're saying is backwards to what the internet has told me.

    Your kid marries a much older person for money; how do you manage?

    Jump

  • This is interesting and I think it sounds like they are in a better scenario than others who marry for money. I'm glad she actually likes him as well. It's certainly odd, but it seems like both of them benefit from the partnershipand both seem to be open about it. While unusual, it seems healthier than other types of these relationships where it isn't clearly stated.

    I will say like the one other user said...make sure she has a way that she could support herself in the event he leaves her or something.

    Is it that wrong to be glad about someone's death?

    Jump

  • I understand that sentiment, but this really isn't the place for that right now.

  • Oh believe me, I fully get that I have a bit of "small boob privilege" in terms of being able to wear bralettes. Do the non-bralette, non-underwire bras still not work for you though? They seem to provide a decent amount of support, but idk how they work for everyone.

  • How do you actually read?

    Jump

  • I'm with you on that. I've never really understood why books are supposed to be seen as somehow the superior and more intelligent medium.

    Why do people praise books as some weird superiority over other media? Is it literally just because they are older? There are deep, thought provoking, intelligent books, sure, but there are also plenty of brainrot books. The same can honestly be said for things like movies and TV shows and podcasts/radio shows.

    What gives?

  • Interesting website! I'll have to remember to try this when I can find where I put my tape measure.

    Personally, once I found bralettes I've never gone back. My boobs are small enough that they work just fine. The comfort level has gone up by like ten billion. Bras without underwire come in second but still not the greatest. I just can't really understand bras with underwire.

    Tbh, I'm able to go braless under loose fitting sweaters, but for any other shirt, I just don't have the right boob shape for it.

  • What would 10 year old you be the most surprised about you now?

    Jump

  • Yeah 10 year old me didn't have much thoughts about the future. Similar but not the exact same as you, but 15 year old me would be surprised that I have someone in my life who considers me a friend. 15 year old me would probably be disappointed that I didn't go to med school, but imo I make decent enough money.

    I'm glad things are going pretty good for you right now. :)

    Lemmings living in red states, how’re you doing?

    Jump

  • It's just kind of interesting to be asking the red states about this. Red states were already living in that kind of environment. I feel like it's the blue states that people should be asking this question to. I live in a red state. I hate the politics here but life isn't too much different than when I lived in a blue state. I am privileged to be cis tho, so I'd imagine if I were trans I would be terrified. I mean, I'm still a bit scared, but I am a bit of a lucky individual.

  • $525/mo for a 2 bedroom apartment? I'm going to cry.

  • I would solve the Third Body Problem for nuggets right now

    Jump

  • I'm a small person, but I'm definitely still hungry after 5 nuggets and some fries at McDonald's. The food isn't particularly filling like at all. Don't get me wrong, I still get a single meal instead of multiple, but that doesn't mean I'm not still hungry.

  • What seemingly random thing do you vehemently hate?

    Jump

  • Yes, but both "could have" and "could've" are correct, but also spoken differently, which is why I'm confused.

  • What seemingly random thing do you vehemently hate?

    Jump

  • So generally I use turn signals correctly. But there are a few times I don't for particular reasons.

    If I am sitting at the rightmost lane at a busy intersection and intend to turn right, I honestly tend to not turn on my right turn signal. The ambiguity of whether or not I'm turning or going straight helps keep assholes behind me from honking at me. I've found that an unfortunately large amount of people get impatient when someone in front of them is turning right on red onto a busy road. They honk and act like assholes because they want you to dangerously jump into traffic and not wait for a clearing so they can go sooner.

    I know I could turn on my turn signal and just let an an asshole lay on their horn, but honestly I really truly prefer to avoid that.

  • What seemingly random thing do you vehemently hate?

  • What do you mean you've heard "could of"? Of course you would have heard that. That's literally how it's pronounced. It's just not spelled out that way, as the above person noted. People end up erroneously writing it like that because that's how you say it out loud.

    Do you pronounce "could've" in a way that doesn't sound like "could of"??? Curious to know what that would sound like.

  • Why are laundromats sexy?

    Jump

  • I feel like it's kind of a meet-cute trope in older sitcoms

  • Who do you know that took a path you didn't expect?

    Jump

  • Wow that's kind of really neat actually. I hope they are living their best life.

  • Who do you know that took a path you didn't expect?

    Jump

  • I'm very glad you're happy where you are. Most people that have had kids have said this to me. But I do occasionally have the rare person who actually has kids but recommends I don't have them. One of the people that told this to me is incredibly sweet and motherly, even to me, but she seems to be able to look past the feel good hormones and realize that it's not something a lot of people should be doing.

    When I visit family members or friends who have kids, it honestly seems like a living nightmare. Not that their children are shitty kids, but just the amount of constant work and attention they need and how you can never do anything for yourself ever again. And you have to do this until they grow up and maybe move out. I can barely even take care of myself mentally or physically. Doing that for multiple human beings sounds like literal torture. I will have people tell me they love raising kids while at the same time they have come into work on only few hours sleep because something happened with the kids in the middle of the night.

    I'm convinced the only reason why people get hooked on the whole having kids things is because of some sort of hormonal thing. Observing everything from the outside, it just looks like everyone has Stockholm syndrome or brain slugs.

    I hope you don't find this offensive and I'm sure you're a great dad. I know your kids are lucky to have you and we do still need at least SOME people to be willing to be parents for the sake of the human race. But yeah idk.

  • What specific traits or habits do people close to you recognize that would reveal an impostor trying to mimic you?

    Jump

  • While yeah, things can change over time, a lot of things stay relatively constant...

    A very straight man will likely never be attracted to another man. A very gay man will likely never be attracted to another woman. A bisexual man can be attracted to both. A very asexual man will likely never be attracted to either men or women.

    I get that sexuality has nuance and what I wrote sounds like an oversimplification, but that's really the jist. People on the internet have a tendency to excessively label every facet of their personality, which isn't necessarily useful, as you've pointed out.

    I'm also on the asexual side of things. It's not something that has changed throughout my life. I don't take any medications either, so it's not medication induced. I have literally always been this way. I'm 30, so I'm way beyond where I would have felt any different at this point.

    I choose to identify somewhat with asexuality because it was confusing as hell growing up and realizing people all want sex but I don't have that desire or instinct. It's odd to be different than 99% of the planet that way. Sometimes it seems like I'm missing some sort of minor sense like smell (I can smell, I'm just trying to draw a comparison).

    However, I've always been curious to know what sort of an effect something like MDMA could have on me.
