- Comment on Will I become a bad person in a year? 1 week ago:
That has nothing to do with the question of being a bad person.
- Comment on Will I become a bad person in a year? 1 week ago:
How you treat each other is what makes you good or bad.
Time is a human construct. Numbers are just for measuring things. And the older you get, the less important many numbers are.
Be a good person and you won’t be bad.

- Comment on Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly? 3 weeks ago:
It takes time to get used to it, no pun intended. Everything is easier with practice.
Those of us who grew up with analog clocks can read them at a glance. If you are new to them, it’ll probably take you a few months (or more) of daily use before you can tell time at a glance.

- Comment on Is it sexist to say "I've never worn a wet dress before" 1 month ago:
It’s not about lying down, it’s about de-escalating.
That can be a touchy subject, so a little bit of humility helps prevent hurt feelings.
- Comment on Is it sexist to say "I've never worn a wet dress before" 1 month ago:
Yeah, this exactly. She has context in mind that she didn’t communicate with you. She may not realize you don’t know her context.
Best thing is to say something like, “I’m sorry for saying the thing you said was sexist. I’ll try to avoid making sexist remarks. But I’m not sure what was sexist about it, and I want to learn why so that I don’t do it again.”
Whether or not you think you owe her an apology, starting like that may help prevent her from getting defensive. That way, you can have a clearer conversation about it.
Whether or not it was actually sexist, she clearly had a reason for believing it was. And, agree or not, the reason is real to her.

Once you can define the word “prize,” we can discuss whether or not you receive one - or, in fact, if receiving one is even possible.

- Comment on (i feel really stupid asking, but what the hell!) could i be of french descent? 3 months ago:
In that case, you could be from france, you could be the descendant of people who had emigrated away from france, or you could be related to people who have never had anything to do with friends but possess similar genetic markers to people who come from parts of France. Or, none of the above! That’s the fun part about genetics, it by itself is only a small piece of the puzzle.
