I go one step further. As a man, I don't even like *myself*. I mean - I like me as a person in every single way except for that whole "being a man" bit.
A: That sounds like a you problem.B: Nobody cares. c.f. "This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure"
SYAC: It's the Incan Small Eared Water Mouse - a relative of the Incan Water Mouse. Both found on the eastern slopes of the Andes.
I knew this would come in handy some day (from when I actually got the two of them confused as to which one was real and which was fictional from Silicon Valley)
Those ARE Flat Screens...every one of them....you *consults notes* dolt.
EVERY Lada Riva came with a 4 cylinder engine from the factory! You can have your choice between 1.2 and 1.7 liters! The 1.7 is a whole 80 HP. But if you can settle for the stock gearbox (there is no feasible 6 speed conversion without going, like, tube frame), you can mod the stock internals to get to 130-140 HP and still have reasonable Daily Driver reliability!
Did you take your advil today?
Blue Mk1 Golf (1974-1982), White Mk2 Golf (1983-1992), VAB 4x4 APC, Red Mk1 Golf, white Lada Riva/VAZ-2015. (The similar Fiat 124 still had 4 headlights from what I can find, and wasn't produced after 1974. the Riva was produced until 2012!), Modified M-113 APC, White Nissan Patrol Y60 (1989-1998)
(3/2) THAT my friend, is a proper gaslighting. It's meant to make you *question* reality, not *support* it.
(2/2) Besides, it's spelled 'gas-lighting', not 'gaslighting', and always has been, since the term was coined shortly after Patrick Hamilton's 1938 stage play Gas-Light was performed for the first time.
No. Gaslighting is a specific, sustained manipulation tactic where someone with power or intimacy over you deliberately works to make you distrust your own perception of reality. It requires intent, repetition, and a goal of destabilizing your grasp on what's true.Reddit saying your crush is into you is wishful cope-enabling at worst. It's not gaslighting - it's actually the opposite structure: they're validating your read, not undermining it. Annoying? Sure. Gaslighting? No.

Definitely not.
Yes. I will stand in solidarity with you when you rage against Ghibli-Slop. That's valid. THIS? This is an extension of the same robotics technology that has made most consumer goods about 99% cheaper (adjusted for inflation) since 1997 (42" TV in 2025 $USD for reference:1997 - $35,0002007 - $19502017 - $5002025 - $200) This is Machine Learning, not "AI".

I'm sure you're not, but your current taste in room decor does not reflect your presumptive actual age - but again, if you were denied these things when you were actually that age (as I was), Revel In It. Have it now that you can have it.(FWIW: the rough equivalent for me would be if I were my age and had Italian Car, Rock and Roll band, and Hollywood Actor Swimsuit Picture posters on the wall. I do not. I went through a Movie Poster phase at 26 to compensate...)
You do you, but...I mean...are you 11 years old?DISCLAIMER: If this is the sort of thing your shitty parents wouldn't let you do when you actually WERE 11, I instead give you one supportive hug instead, then whisper in your ear, "maybe take it down for New Years, tho..." ❤️
For the record, you should ABSOLUTELY be mentioning to the gate agent that if/when it happens in future. "Hi...not to be a pain, but I specifically paid an upcharge for 13A because I've learned over the course of 12 years flying that I get terrible motion sickness if I'm not in front of the wing - So if you don't want the cabin crew to deal with some serious Monster Vom 15 minutes after takeoff, you're gonna work hard to get me seated in the seat I paid to select or something comparable."
why are you writing Southwest a letter? You should be talking to your credit card/bank once you see the charge actually goes through (and isn't just a $250 'hold' that disappears in a few days).
I won't come beat you for that. I'll just insist you pick some up and take them to your NaN. She misses you.
You should definitely pick up a few and take them to your NaN.
This one must've been super easy on the budget. My recollection was that it was most similar to a REALLY GIANT paper towel tube. :D :D
Seriously. a Soviet memetic weapon designed by intelligence professionals isn't going to announce its thesis statement like that.
