Random thoughts: What’s on your mind lately? Part 2

[MasterPat]

I wasn't thinking of including that in the story! She and her friends are supposed to defeat an evil force taking over the world and they all have different powers. One of her friends practices cyber magic.

The brain is pretty weird. I feel like when I was a child and a teenager, time went by a lot more slower. I was very unhappy and bored at school, so it makes sense.. Also social media wasn't a thing like it is now. I think different things can affect our memory and the way we perceive time tbh. Trauma and depression among other things will do that. It's funny but every time I've used magic mushrooms, time seemed to stretch.. but it was pleasant.

I had a similar experience. Summer would last forever! We had so much time to go and explore everywhere.

Now I lucky if I find the time to sit down and enjoy 1 book in my entire summer.

I feel like I'm getting closer to one of my colleagues lately (after hanging out with them in a non-work setting) and it's making me happy. I love building meaningful friendships through this job. The people in our community are so interesting and it's nice to get to know them outside of their work persona!!

I won't name anyone so this doesn't come across as an ad in the lounge, but I'm manifesting duos with this person. Haha

I've been feeling the same way about one of my colleagues lately

Random thought : I don't like it when girls complain about men being poor or broke. It's not a moral failure to be poor and it's no one's fault if they have financial difficulties, and everyone deserves stability and security. However, there's a difference between being poor/broke and being cheap & entitled. Usually being cheap and being entitled are attitudes that go hand in hand, in my experience. (expecting a lot for not much in exchange, complaining the most when you're paying for cheaper services)

I call men broke but that has nothing to do with how much they have in their bank account (wouldn’t know anyways)

If you complain about prices being expensive on a date it’s a turn off, act like you’ve been here before and complain in your head.

If you try to haggle rates, don’t. Just move on.

Those are broke men behaviour.


Yes things are expensive, they’re expensive for everyone. We just complain in our heads to not ruin the mood

In a not-so-distant past when good manners were still important and valued, a job interview for a "respectable" position would involve a dinner at a restaurant. One of the main purposes of the exercise was for the interviewers to observe how the candidate treated the waiter/waitress.

Men complaining to the waiter/ress or barista that prices are high as if they were responsible for setting those prices to begin with

I've dealt with my fair share of customers in retail/customer service to know better to berate anyone in restauration/hospitality, but some just have no common sense or empathy.

I disagree. I know a lot of people, including good friends, who are absolutely at fault for being in a bad financial situation. And I believe we all know someone who likes to overspend and lives above their means. There is not enough education on personal financing.

I've considered keeping a journal about my life as an escort and making a graphic novel series about it, with fantasy elements.. the main character being an escort would just be one theme of the series, she would have magical powers

I feel a lot of the issues you've faced would be really relatable to some people and some people would be inspired to stand up for their selves better.

Yes I agree that some people make bad decisions and are at fault for being in a bad position (someone living above their means and making extremely large purchases when they can't afford is at fault..) but not everyone has the same opportunities in life..

Honestly that wasn't the point of my comment at all.

I completely agree you pay for what you get and that’s in many aspect's of life cars,house,clothes etc. but you can always choose what lifestyle you want.

I’ve been looking for sp but I don’t know who to choose next. There’s so many beautiful women. Also when I’m in this mood it affects my performance and sp now don’t really do msog.

 

[Jebmtl]

Really wish the men pressuring women to offer Greek would stick a cucumber up their ass and see how it feels. Let me know if you’d still offer it to just anyone if you were in our shoes xoxo ❤️❤️❤️

I really don’t like doing greek even after a flush and clean but I love getting pegged by a woman but thinking of a guy doing it is a big turn off how can I like it but only from women?

 

[clemieux6]

Dealing with a builder that made a condo with defects due to neglect and the small courts claims is definitely not a way I wanted to start my summer

I said WTF out loud.

And I thought of this comment.

And I knew I've read the same thing as you.
