Until I was like 23 I didn’t know how to cut and peel an avocado. I would peel the skin off in chunks with my fingers like it was a giant boiled egg. It was a very laborious and frustrating process.


I don’t understand how drivers know if they have enough time to go through a yellow light. I don’t drive anymore but for the short time I did I dreaded yellow lights.
I’ve been using dark mode 24/7 on all my devices for like 7 years now. I’ve tried a few times going back to light mode because text looks sharper but I keep getting headaches seemingly everytime I use light mode for more than a couple hours at a time.


Can’t wait to try these words at the next Scrabble game.


Once or twice a year, I’ll get an eyelash that’s grey and weirdly long. Plucking it is so satisfying though.
Trying to pick up my cat. She won’t let me. I just want to hold her. 🥺


I got to see it in VistaVision format. To me the image seemed very sharp and vibrant compared to a digital projector.


A calzone.

I vaguely remember as a kid my parents being asked to show their ID at the grocery store when paying with a credit card. I think they were checking that the names matched.
Oh neat. Maybe she can get some Hell swag.
My girlfriend returns other people’s stray carts when she sees them. I guess she’s getting into super heaven.


I’ve noticed this problem with a lot of media made in the past decade. I think Netflix’s ‘Ozark’ is one of the worst examples. In almost every indoor scene the lights are off or very dim.
However, I got an oled screen this year, and it’s helped a lot with dim scenes. I’m guessing hollywood is calibrating for expensive high contrast screens like oled and mini-led?


But she’s so young.


I feel that punctuation that was not present in the quoted source should not appear between the quote marks.


When I was 10, I went on a trip to Venezuela. At this restaurant in Caracas, I went into the bathroom. It was a single person bathroom. For some reason the door had slide locks on both sides. While I was in there, some kid locked the door from the outside (I could see through a narrow gap). It was a real door, not a stall door. I couldn’t unlock it. I started panicking a little and kicking the door. Eventually a waiter let me out.
I’m still confused about why that door could be locked on the outside.


Thanks! I’ve been collecting old computer books from resell shops. I’ll look for it.
Is that Nana Visitor (Kira from DS9)?
