You could also demand to see the kerrygold’s papers, and then leave with it.

Love that energy! That’s kind of how I feel about the Elder Scrolls. I can’t get into it but I’m so glad there are people who do.

- It’s probably made of that super light material, and if I use too big of a fork, I’ll drop rice all over myself. Or get too big of a mouthful.
I’m glad someone on the internet finally figured out that we all have rules about forks.

Look. No one blames you.
- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 1 week ago:
Glad you mentioned ‘next of kin.’ This is the important answer. If you’re married, you can do all that important legal stuff- make medical decisions if your partner is unconscious or indisposed, get the death certificate if that happens and give it to all the people who will need it.
Say your partner is in a car accident and you go to the hospital. There’s no marriage, no forms, no nothing to indicate you’re at all related to this person. You’re just some dude or lady, showing up at some dude or lady’s bedside. You can’t make the decisions for this person. Even if, say, they have a horrible narcissistic mother they’re estranged from- that mother, just by being the mother, can get all the authority to make decisions your unconscious partner would hate!
(Drawing from my own life. Fuck my mother.)
You can’t even call the hospital and get information on them. If they aren’t awake to indicate a release of information, the hospital can’t let you see them, can’t tell you anything.
This is just the first example that came to mind. The purpose of marriage is, it’s a legal way to indicate that you’re the most important person in the life of the person you marry. (And yes, depending on where you are and laws in your state or country or whatever, domestic partnership and other stuff can grant that, too.)

You’re… jerkin it to the joker from Balatro?

We talked about your languages and where you’re from. I remember stuff sometimes.
Thanks for asking- it’s healing! Only a few more days before I can get the stitches out!

I was totally going to ping you to come to the comments, glad to see you’re already here!

Eeeeew I feel like this really diminishes both ADHD and autism.
Especially since it’s so damn difficult to actually get a diagnosis if you have it.

- Comment on Why do we even do mens vs womens sizes for clothes? 1 month ago:
The zipper in th3 back also helps if you have a big chest and don’t want it bifurcated by a zipper.
And you can’t put that same zipper (if it goes all the way up the back) on the side… if you have wide hips.
So at least that still has reason to exist.
Source: my own body and never wearing a front-faced zipper after seeing why we don’t do that.

I once said to an employee, “Have a peaceful rest of your shift!” And he said, “You, too,” and I didn’t turn away fast enough and I watched his soul leave his body.
- Comment on Tried to order a part before the tariffs 2 months ago:
In November, the boyfriend and I went ahead and pulled the trigger on replacing both of our aging laptops (even though it was a bit earlier than I’d like- I just play a lot of Stardew Valley, I don’t really need anything fancy).
Thank goodness for that. I’m sad other people won’t have been as fortunate.

A fire? At a Sea Parks? It’s wrecking my head! If she had said that her parents drowned, I’d be the happiest man in the world!
- Comment on The IT Crowd: Jen has been transported 2 months ago:
“It just seems like a weird place to go on fire” was the best, I agree entirely!

Well good luck, she’s in Italy now.

Every time I’ve ever mentioned that there’s people who do this, the reactions I get from people who have one are… not pleased.
Actually now that I think about it, I think it’s because most of those folks don’t want to see other people’s Johnsons. I guess there’s not as much overlap between people who have dingalings and people who want to see them as there could be.

There was a subreddit for people putting like outfits on their peckers, and that’s about the only thing I think the fediverse is missing. And before anybody tells me to start that community, I don’t have a dick of my own, and yes, I’m aware that it’s a skill issue.

Literally what I’ve been saying since his whole ‘camps’ thing came to light.
We don’t just have poor impulse control (and we do, a lot of it)- many of us have had hobbies and interests over the years that make for a group of people who are each, in their own way, as resourceful as MacGuyver. If you make the mistake of rounding us all up and putting us in the same place, we’ll have a pirate radio and an underground railroad with an actual train in it in a week.
Our most dangerous phrase is, “I’m bored.” Our second most dangerous phrase is, “You know what would make this better?” And it’s only ever rarely dangerous to us.
