    What can I say? I'm an Italian kid from Providence. Got enough vowels Gs, and Ns in my real name to stock a Scrabble tournament.

    And they're useful for making snares and garrotes in case things suddenly go all dystopian!

    Dystopian is fine. I can cope in dystopia. I'm more nervous about utopias for some reason.

    That moment when you were invited out for the first time in a long time and have to mentally prepare yourself for socialization... And also popped a few advils for the nervous headache you know is going to come from forcing your introverted self to be extroverted for a night -deep breath- booze and chocolate is your friend:crazy:

    That moment when the hospital calls you at 6pm to confirm that you will be attending your urgent hospital appointment tomorrow morning... and you haven't even had the letter for it yet.

    Or the blood tests you were supposed to have before said appointment, although the results wouldn't have come back in time anyway haha.

    Could be worse. I'm sure someone out there has wracked up
    some hefty fees from Blockbuster Video from the VHSs they
    haven't returned in like 20 years. :)

    TMW you remember (at 9 pm) that you have ordered a bulk waste collection for tomorrow. Since they didn’t want an item list you didn’t make one, so you start to throw things out of the garage with the constant thought ‘I hope they’ll take this.’, already guessing that you will forget the things you have ordered the collection for in the first place:bigfrown:.

    That moment when you go to your urgent appointment, get referred for a second urgent appointment, and you STILL haven't had the letter for the original appointment.

    ... when your friend leaves your house but forgets to pick up his mobile phone, and you rush around frantically looking for your own phone so that you can call him to tell him he's left his phone.

    3 "TMWs"

    1: that moment whn you havent eaten since 9am

    2: that moment when you spend 3 hours meticulously scrubbing your kitchen (this mouse thing may have awakened a disorder...)

    3: that moment when your coworker thinks you look like a child model and literally bought you clothes from her country to wear (im actually pretty excited about this one)

    TMW you're taking your morning walk and it's 10 degrees Farenheit and you come upon a solid-frozen piece of fruit, and you know it's that thing you use to make guacamole but you can't think of the name, artichoke? anchovy? and you can picture it in the supermarket but can't quite read the sign and you come inside and ask your wife what it's called and she looks at you like your brain is frozen.

    TMW you didn‘t sleep very well because your dog somehow found a way to get his paws under your blanket and poked constantly into your belly (he slept blissfully, stretching from time to time which resulted in the poking :().

    Yeah, "no preservatives" sounds super healthy, doesn't it? I have a bread machine, and while mold usually isn't a problem, it's "Sunday, fresh warm bread; Monday, good sandwich bread; Tuesday, still okay; Wednesday, getting a bit stale; Thursday, dry and crumbly; Friday, cafeteria curry for lunch."

    TMW you find yourself on Facebook Messenger at four in the morning with your group and you are all trying to help someone find some random island in the middle of the Indian ocean, then figuring out who the hell Chuck Tingle from Billings, Montana is only to find out the person who started all this is a tad drunk. :p
