the subreddits for luxury watches are some of the darkest places on earth

Rolex subreddit post:

My uncle has Alzheimer's and is often forgetful of his possessions. One of them is a Rolex Submariner. Would I be justified in taking and caring for it as my own instead of having it left neglected and forgotten in his jewelry box? Thanks.

Science teacher made an error on our study sheet of chemicals. (Wrote “HCL” instead of “HCl,” if you must know.) Later quizzed us on it. Everybody who answered as he wrote it on the sheet was marked wrong. We should have caught it, apparently.

What meaningless thing/experience are you still mad about? Like it should not matter at all, DOES not matter at all. But you’re still MAD.

And how long has it been?

I bought some bagels at Hy-Vee four years ago. So bad. Too big. Hard. Bland. WORTHLESS.

I’m still FURIOUS.

I cannot emphasize enough: 3 year olds do not give a shit if people are gay. They don’t care. They want to know what your favorite dinosaur is, or why you’re not currently wearing a butterfly costume.
