Today I learned that MILF does not mean “Mastodonian I’d Like to Follow” and excuse me while I go back and edit several dozen posts.
so irritating when you finally get to a place where you feel ready to take something on after weeks of procrastination; then suddenly there's a glitch that's out of your control, and ope! maybe some other time. how about tomorrow? maybe next month?

One aspect of human communication I have to remember every time is that statements of fact are often taken as a negative unless a positive modifier is added. So, if you say, "You got your hair done," and nothing else, it's insulting. If you say, "You got your hair done. It looks great," it's a compliment.

If I'm happy about something, I tend to just state it as fact, so I have to run it through a filter to make sure I'm communicating my intention.

@zoomar And *never* add "today," as this implies that every other day, the compliment does not apply.

(Why do NTs make everything so complicated?)

My plan for my birthday Wednesday:

Get the Arid Pack for Planet Zoo. Game all day.

Internet provider: We will be upgrading in your area. Expect outages.

Me: Meh. It'll probably be fine.

Universe: I said, "NO!"

My 18 month old, top of the line gaming rig:
Blue Screen of Death.

Happy birthday to me.

@KatLS I honestly don't know. She'd never done it before and hadn't done it since. At least, not that I've seen.
