Youre right. We should demand Walmart pay its people a living wage.

My point exactly. When I’m listening to a podcast I’m also 100 percent in the moment. The problem is I’m normally 150 percent of chaos. The podcast bring me down to an enjoyable normal level

New York City should put on an amazing Woodstock style show for that night instead.
I’m sure they could get plenty of bands to come out just to prove a point.

It’s not drooling off no more than you’re spacing out in music. It’s just life.

I once knew a guy named Irish.
He absolutely wasn’t named Irish and no one else called him Irish…
I’m just easy going and lazy. He said his name Was Irish to me. I memorized Irish. I’m calling him Irish because he told me his name was Irish. Fuck it.
- Comment on Thank you, Boston 1 week ago:
Totally a team story.
Guy named mop
Was that his real name a nickname? Who cares. I know the dogs name tho! The brisket was good and if he called on me I guess I’d stand up.

I’m saying “I don’t want to get shot… but I’m not afraid of getting shot. Texas is Texas but a stranger is a stranger. Let’s hit this fishing spot together first
- Comment on Thank you, Boston 1 week ago:
Exactly! It’s helpful it’s just… “you in some kind of hurry?”
As for your fishing spot. I’ll answer in Texan
“Sounds great but I know how people enjoy a good spot once they found it. We’ll head out sometime together. You bring the beer.”

So was I. I just did it with humor because I already know it’s normal and why I’m the way I am. I’m illustrating an idea in an attempt to maybe make it “click” for op. Because once an idea click hundreds of dominos fall into place. Many ideas click as a result. At least for me. On click leads to a network of clicks. It’s actually kind of beautiful.
It’s absolutely strange to me that you all can do that. I’m just not shocked by it anymore. I’m old. I know that I’m the different one and I know why.
Op isn’t clicking. I approached it “my way” and we’ll see how much clicks for them.

I feel the need to do a Texas one as a Texan
Tex: you must be lost
Person: yes I was traveling…. Looking for… do you know
Long silence
Tex: yep… see I knew you were probably lost. When I saw your car I told my buddy bubba over bubba tips his hat “hey bubba I think he’s lost. Probably looking for the highway.” Are ya… looking for the highway that is.
Person: yes
Tex: ya. That’s what I figured. (Long silence but right before you say something else) you’re probably gonna want to take that road there. It’ll get you to Edna.
Person: is the highway in Edna?
Tex: no, but… you should probably go thru Edna. Less trouble that way. Then you’ll see where the old windmill used to be. Make a left”
Person: left… to the highway?
Tex: no… but that’ll get you to fire station
Person: do I need the fire station
Bubba laughs
Tex: bubba! No but your going to need their help with the tree from August
Person: uhh okay… thank you… I guess I’ll head to that fire station.

Damn. One day I’ll meet one.
It was a joke.
I have severe ADHD as well. Not everyone has the same symptoms. Good job on keeping your comment short and concise. I can’t do that.
Do you have trouble memorizing facial features. Can you hold eye contact? Do you know your age without doing math?
There are so many symptoms one can have with adhd. A lot of us get really frustrated if we have to focus on one thing. I need my podcasts. I’m listening to Robert Evan’s talk about Jamaican slavery while writing this.
I can’t just do one thing. That’s crazy to imagine. I love listening to nature, I just do it while doing something else. I’m able to focus on both, I have to focus on both.
- Comment on People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead? 1 week ago:
Don’t listen to them. I have severe adhd. Like they have me in training videos back when I was a kid.
I spend all day everyday with an earbud in my ear. I don’t really like music so it’s podcasts all day everyday.
You can absolutely experience life fully like this. I walk more than anyone I know. I can point out stars in the sky and how the andromeda galaxy would look in the sky. I watch birds, I walk on the beach every night.
And other times I just let my mind wonder wherever it goes. I think about my day, the people I care about, how I can do more and better.
I do it all with an earbud in my ear. Only one, but always one.
Don’t let people tell you how to live.
- Comment on People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead? 1 week ago:
Wow I finally meet someone without adhd.
What’s it like? I bet it’s awesome. So do you just wake up and get stuff done? It’s like being a wizard I bet.

Timing is everything. In bed and out.

Really depends on the girl. I knew a girl once who wanted the grip of my gun in her. Well she wanted the other end but I believe in always treating a gun like it’s loaded. So we settled on the grip.
Whatever you are into their is someone out there into it too.
That girl is a teacher now.

It’s your road to growth. If you can do it all except the sugar you are still doing better than you were before.
You can always tackle the sugar problem down the road when you’re ready to.
- Comment on what is the best fruit to leave in a fridge? 1 week ago:
Variety is good in general but I can tell you about potassium. If you have too much you die, if you have to little you die.
I’m sure it’s possible to eat so many bananas it kills you but I don’t think it really anything most people need to think about.
But variety in diet is super important

Florida and Texas. Yes he still wears his winter wear.
I’d also like to point out characters at Disney. If you think Santa is hot think about Chewbacca lol. I’m assuming Santa’s would work the same if they were outdoors. Lots of breaks to cool down.
- Comment on During the lead up to the Holocaust did the N... regime just kidnap people who they even thought were Jews? Kind of like ICE is doing to citizens today? 2 weeks ago:
But those were before dna tests so it was pretty flawed. So I’d say the answer is “kinda ya”. If they didn’t believe you then you were Jewish.
- Comment on How do i get my nails to stop stinking faster 2 weeks ago:
I had my stupidity in insanity. No one’s noticed so far.

I didn’t see anything wrong with your picture. But I am a hammer so take that with a grain of nails.
- Comment on How do i get my nails to stop stinking faster 2 weeks ago:
“Well this is the internet so let me assume stupidity and go from there”
That’s what makes absurdist and deadpan humor so fun on the internet. You’ll say something off the wall and people will be like “well they might be that stupid… I better check”
- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 2 weeks ago:
I agree historically but now it’s more of a question to the person in the house.
Some people do haunted houses “grapes are eyeballs type stuff” or maybe they jump out of the bush and scare you.
So it’s still a question of “will it be a trick or a treat “ just with a different meaning.
But you are historically correct (the second best kind of correct with “technically correct” being 1)
- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 2 weeks ago:
More importantly im complaining about the meme. Specifically that a lot of PE teachers in schools were first in some kind of sport. Coaching isn’t as physically demanding as the sport itself and muscle starts becoming fat.
That why many PE teachers are fat. It doesn’t mean they aren’t healthy it just means they stopped pushing themselves to the absolute limit and now are teaching others.
The meme is unfair is my point.
- Comment on if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people? 2 weeks ago:
This.
In an ideal world everyone could have a sit down and talk about how to interact with each other so that everyone’s happy. In the real world yes it would be “you aren’t even working here yet and you’re already causing me problems? No thanks”
- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 3 weeks ago:
It’s me again.
Again my father was a professional gymnast who became a coach. “Complete one rep” on a pull up bar? He literally would swing circles on those bars, and the rings, and everything else lol.
I’m not sure if he was 300 lbs but muscle is heavy. Surely he was in the ballpark of it.
Why as you so stubborn that someone who looks fat can’t be athletic? You are wrong lol

They can’t exactly go door to door and have a brief conversation with everyone. That would take most of an evening!
Joking of course.
