I haven't filed the paperwork yet, but it seems I'm also a Korean War veteran. Gotta love cease-fires in lieu of peace treaties...
Confession: I'm no longer caring about keeping "family secrets". I have started to write something that is revealing. I don't care if this "destroys" my family at this point. Or even me. Let hell rain down around their ears.
They've been around for a decade or more, but I still laugh out loud at those Hitler rant parodies on YouTube.
I've started using hair conditioner. After 20+ years of a medium reg, my barbering was interrupted by the virus in February. Then my hair got long enough to slick back when wet. Then long enough to "style" while wet and have some effect once dry. I've decided to push through to a ponytail again. Hence the goop.
You have to cut it at least biweekly to maintain that. Nah man, I neither want to pay for that or spend the time myself. I give it three or four months until the mop gets unruly and then i pull a medium fade and cut most the rest off. How about a rat tail instead @Iain Aschendale. Those are always fashionable...
That's more of a naval thing. My grandfather commanded a destroyer escort in WWII; he taught me the saying "Join the Navy and ride the WAVES." Grandma was not amused.
I think people who habitually kill plants are just serial killers who've found a less problematic outlet for their desires.
I'll kill a plant in a fair fight, or if I think its going to start a fair fight, or if it annoys me, or if there's a woman involved. Or for money... mostly for money. (serenity - almost)
I guess when I'm feeling socially fragile it's nice to have something that hides any human expression from my interlocutor. But I'm not exactly proud of myself in those moments.
It makes me less ashamed of being a damn mouth breather. I'll have to re-learn to breathe through my nose as soon as they aren't required anymore...
Well, I can't smell because of an accident anyways, so it's really only used for holding up my glasses nowadays.
I remember when I was in Afghanistan (before the wars began) and noticed how the masks the women wore made their eyes look so beautiful. I'm noticing that here, now.
I don't get the whole "best friends shouldn't date your ex" thing. If the relationship ended amicably and your ex and your best friend are more compatible, what's the big deal? I mean, maybe not right away so that you can get over the ex, but in the long term I don't get what the problem is.
