I rarely comment in threads anymore because by the time I get there:
@The_Mighty_Stu, @robstein, @BrickHead has probably given a great answer already ( which the OP wont accept because they were really just looking for validation)
@T3hPwnisher or @flipcollar has brought the needed training (and often life) advice disguised in snark and sarcasm (that the OP will be too dumb to get)
@bulldog9899 or @strongmangoals has brought the old-man wisdom and “kids these days” attitude (that the OP will start bringing themselves in 20 years)
@EyeDentist has brought the low-key dad humor (which isnt really low-key because it has 20 likes)
which pretty much leaves me with nothing to do 'round these parts 'cept read all this great content. Im sure I missed some people there, but thats just an “off the top of my head” list of peoples names that catch my eye these days.
On days where I’ve spent hours straightening my hair, and I decide to go out and be all fancy, I don’t quite fully understand why people ask me these two things that irritate me.
“OMG is that your real hair?!?”
“OMG can I touch it?!?!”
Yes it’s my real hair. Have people never seen someone with near butt length hair before? I’m sure folks have.
No you can’t fucking touch it. You’re gonna get your fingers caught in it, and I don’t know where your hands have been.
I had scaling done on most of my teeth and 3 cavities(too much coffee and smoking) filled in a single session several years ago. This was a government clinic and I was NOT told that a jab was an option!
Still, I would rather sit through that again than go through another test for glaucoma.
Confession: We buy beef by the side from a local farm and now I’m a steak snob. I can’t buy steak from a grocery store as it’s only slightly better than garbage…
I don’t think anyone should say the “N” word. Not even if you’re African American.
I know a lot of people say it today because it’s supposed to be some sort of ironic twist, or an act of rising above from the past instances of America, but you’re still keeping some sort of rememberance of it, and as long as folks have access to history text, you’re still, indirectly, keeping the memory of that term alive, by constantly saying it.
I always figured what better way to have something die out, than to not speak of it? To move past it? Don’t give your attention to it, either by listening to it, speaking about it, or thinking on it. In this case, repeatedly saying it.
I don’t care if someone has the same skin color as I do, I’m inclined to almost call you an idiot when you go, “what up my *****?” I have a name. And even if you don’t call me by it you can say something else that doesn’t have such a heavy historical weight attached to it.
I got called a Dick Head by a nameless individual on You Tube over a comment I made. If he actually knew me he would have known to call me Asshole. LOL
