    You could also just press the "Watch Thread" button up in the right corner of the thread, if you didn't know. :)

    TMW you want to say something on a thread, but you are afraid of incurring the wrath of the gods. Heck, I will say it anyway. TMW you have survived a few things and now think you are immortal.

    TMW you have to deliver a short script in a few hours and you are just not feeling it. Not at all. Actually you haven't even decided on a story. You haven't even opened word yet. You are drinking hot cocoa after hot cocoa like a maniac, like what stands between you and inspiration is your lack of cocoa intake, when in truth you know very painfully aware that what you want, what you need is nothing else than COFFEE!!!! :supermad:

    ...which I'm trying to reduce.

    That moment when you're short and you've been driving around with your skirt caught in the door yesterday afternoon (shoutout to the lady in the drive thru who flagged me down to tell me)

    Long cardigans are also a good candidate for this situation. I'm the living proof for that, probaly more than once making the day a bit funnier for some strangers who happened to be on the same motorway. Nevertheless, ist's a nice skirt :)!

    That moment when your ipad (2012 version) finally bites the dust.

    After a year of not holding a charge, its finally given up on charging all together.

    RIP Old iPad

    Is that you? Hooray for the woman behind the cute avatars!

    As for the skirt-catching, it's even worse when it happens in the Ladies'. Totally a violation of the Girl Code if another woman sees it and doesn't tell you right away.

    TMW you think someone is stepping in, then you get all this introverted anxiety while building up the courage to call them out and then they see you being uncomfortable and then say they aren't busting in the line and now you get all this shameful energy that makes you even MORE uncomfortable and you become a sweaty mess. :(

    Cannot win with my brain sometimes...

    That moment when you see virtual running challenges with cool medals and think "I could do that"... and then your hamstring says "hahaha NO."

    Yes, this is the same injury I was whinging about on the old thread a couple of months ago, which wasn't that bad, it's just stubbornly refusing to heal properly.

    TMW when your wife asks where her black rubber sandal houseslippers are and says she remembers leaving them by the door and you think you've seen them somewhere and then you realize that you had inadvertently confused them with your own and that the reason you were sort of clumsy on your feet as you went through the day was not because you are getting old but because they were at least two sizes two small, and then you realize that maybe the fact that you didn't notice and she is laughing about it means that maybe you are getting old and bit senile and not as bright as you once were but then you console yourself by observing that you have been sort of absent-minded your whole life, and find that only mildly comforting.

    That moment.
