  Man, we need a shitty tattoos community.

  When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large.

  And now that I’m grown, I eat five dozen eggs so I’m roughly the size of a barge.

  Is this a real image or an AI image? Granny got that drip.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Im stupid but have money⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You know what I’m going to say something different and I hope it’s not too inappropriate.

  The other commenters have done well so far. But have you considered using some of your money for therapy? I see you said you’re on antidepressants, but I wasn’t sure if you were already in therapy or not.

  I don’t mean this as a cop out answer and I don’t mean that they will directly help you with your finances. But it might be a good idea to talk to someone about the “nothing matters because the world is going to shit” mentality. Even if there is merit to what you say, it isn’t exactly helping you feel happy or satisfied with your life. If you can learn to cope with this particular thought, you might find the rest falling into place a little easier.

  Yeah, one of my siblings has always been a cocky asshole his whole life for reasons unknown to me. My other two siblings and I obviously have our own issues, but I wouldn’t call any of us assholes. We all grew up in the same environment so it’s odd to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How far do you wear your daily shoes out before bothering to replace them?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure I would eat shit if I tried to do any BMX stuff. Hope you enjoy it even though you mangled yourself lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How far do you wear your daily shoes out before bothering to replace them?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ahh damn that sucks. It makes it super easy for tennis shoes/sneakers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How far do you wear your daily shoes out before bothering to replace them?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess I don’t have delicate shoes. I just throw them in the washing machine.

  Really don’t need something to make me more depressed, thanks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is kissing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow! Do you have sex? Other forms of physical touch? I never knew two people who don’t enjoy kissing could find each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is kissing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I did twice in life. It was very wet and tasted like spit. Confusing why it’s pleasant to others lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can taste sounds⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lmao what is this comment? Who shat in your cornflakes this morning?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a self-help way to deal with fear of germs/"contamination"?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you looked up “contamination OCD”? That’s basically what you’re describing! I wouldn’t say it’s overly common among the general population, but it is an incredibly well known phenomenon and something that providers are definitely able to treat! If you’re not able to see someone due to various reasons like cost (totally understandable!), you might try looking up the methodologies that specifically address and treat contamination OCD.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Year's broadcasts behind paywalls⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So a caveat to this is that digital signal is absolutely shit compared to analog. Back when we had rabbit ears, even if the picture was a bit fuzz/suboptimal, you could watch the show just fine. Nowadays? If you’re not getting 100% full strength signal, it is literally unwatchable. The audio and picture freeze every two seconds. Either I get a crystal clear picture and audio or I get an unwatchable mess. There is no in between anymore with digital signal.

  Plus, I only seem to get this crystal clear signal from the top floor in my home and near a window. If you have a lower floor or have the antenna a bit too far away from the window, it also just does not work hardly at all. This was never an issue with analog signal for me.

  Idk if it’s just me or not. There are a ton more channels overall with the digital signals compared to analog, but it’s frustrating that I only seem to be able to watch them if the signal is absolutely perfect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The void can be loud sometimes⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Whoa where did you get this drawing of me?

  Actually kind of relevant because I seek out issues from mental health providers that are very intermittent so it’s hard to get them to understand what the problem is and how to help me with it. Like they diagnosed me with “depression” because I presented as AAAA but have tried to explain to them that it’s intermittent and not the classic incessant low mood and energy.

  Anyway…cue the “sir, this is a Wendy’s” response to this comment lol!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do I have extreme anxiety?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok I know you are trying to help at all and chronic headaches can occasionally point to something bad about this.

  But there is a funny sort of humor that comes from telling an incredibly anxious person that they might have a brain tumor lol.

  I really mean no disrespect!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Belief⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow your love went up so dramatically. Mine is the opposite in a way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The labeling on OTC pain relievers, etc. This is why I just pop 3 and hope for the best.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk…I struggle with this too like the OP said. Yes, the directions are there. But notice how that paragraph was hidden within walls and walls of text.

  If they put it at the top or at the very least bolded it or made it in a different color or literally anything, it would be way better for everyone and even more idiot proof.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you KNOW the facts you are more likely to stay safe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I briefly shadowed at a medical examiner’s office. “Choking” was a scarily common cause to see up on the board. So I have a hard time believing only one person has ever died eating a donut.

  Note that I am pretty sure a lot of those choking deaths are in older people because your swallowing can become impaired.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, AliExpress is great, but for many things I’m really just not interested in waiting 2 weeks for my item.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t get why multiple people in this post are recommending AliExpress over Amazon. Like yeah it’s cheaper and more from the direct source…but not everyone wants to wait 3-4 weeks for the item they want to buy. I’ve seen some items on AliExpress advertise that they now have “faster shipping”, but it’s still very very slow in comparison.

  There is a reason why Amazon got big over other online retailers. Even the online shops for many brick and mortar stores end up making you pay more for the item, make you pay a sizeable fee for the shipping, and make you wait 1-2 weeks all on top of that.

  I get Amazon is evil and all but there’s a reason why they are the most used shopping platform. If no one else comes even remotely close to what they do, they aren’t going to gain much of a foothold.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I always love the nonsensical order of letters that these companies use.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Popcorn Ceiling Removal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s so fucking ugly. My place has it and I hate it so much. But a ton of places seem to where I live.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It would be cool if after you died you could see the top 5 times you almost died⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  For those in car-centric countries, I’d bet that potential vehicle accidents are likely a majority of those.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's always about dat math⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems to be unpopular to admit in this post, but I use food delivery apps. Yes, the fees are ridiculous, but I can afford it. I don’t do it every day, but I do at least once a week.

  I hate cooking and I hate dishes. It’s never pleasant. No, I can’t personally make something at home “better than most takeouts”. If you can, good for you. It’s not for me and I’m lucky that I am able to get takeout.

  Honestly, I don’t know how in the world one human is able to keep up with working 40 hours a week, laundry, cook, clean, etc. It’s all too much for me. Hell, the state of my laundry has been insane the last several weeks.

  Damn both of y’all getting really hardcore in the comments over some milk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On new installations, Android rebinds the power button to open up Google Assistant⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  On Samsung phones, you can turn off your phone via the notification bar drop down.

  That being said, I still prefer to have my power button bound to…well…power options lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On new installations, Android rebinds the power button to open up Google Assistant⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well luckily you can change this on Samsung phones. I’m assuming phones with the default bound to Google Assistant will be similar. Annoying and stupid, for sure, but at least you’re not locked in. I’m sure a lot of the general population won’t have the basic know-how to change it though, unfortunately.
