There's a lot in my past I wish I could change but graduating with a journalism degree and deciding to not actually work in it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I used to be kind of embarrassed about it but now I'm proud I said, nah, I don't like the direction this industry is heading.

I answer the phones at work & recently some spam calls just sit there not saying anything. I think when they realize it's a business they don't want do their pitch. Maybe they get demerits if they hang up so they wait for you to. I'm taking great pleasure in saying hello until they hang up finally

I didn't sleep very well last night & between them not knowing how to bring back James Bond & my coworker calling me from the grocery store because she couldn't decide what cake to buy for another co-worker's bday, I honestly couldn't figure out if it was my brain or theirs that stopped working
I truly still don’t know why suddenly everyone was doing like Schrödinger’s Bond discourse and I think it’s more fun if no one ever explains it to me

I have a breakout of eczema low on my back. I know I shouldn't scratch it, but can't help it. I stand hunched over, like a sad, broken down Soviet babushka, scratching at my back until I actually kick my leg out because it feels so good. Anyway, probably a good thing I've never tried hard drugs

My current emotional state - I just watched the clip from ET where the kids fly away on their bikes and for some reason it made me start crying and I had to fight hard to keep it from turning into ugly sobs. Seems healthy, right?

I think I'm going to stop going to the grocery store. They never have what I want, I pay more than I want and I never have anything to eat, so how much worse could it be if I just don't go?

I have to say, it's kind of a design flaw that you can unravel an entire person by pulling on a hangnail like we're all just janky sweaters

No show socks are a complete scam, right? I refuse to believe anyone can wear them without them slipping off and scrunching down in your shoe

Something I just cannot shake is the belief that people who back into parking spots are assholes. In my head I think it's *probably* not true, but deep in my heart I know it is

Today I bought an airline ticket to go home for Xmas and I meant to put it on my credit card but must've gotten my debit out by habit and now I'm in my overdraft. I hate when I create my own problems! What am I, a character from an 80s sitcom?!

I love bracelets, but I don't like to clink and clank or jingle jangle. I also loathe squeaky shoes. Apparently, I like to move in silence. Like a ninja.

Me just getting home after a week long vacation with my family: good, now I can just lay around and watch TV and not care what anyone else is doing
Also me: aw, shit, I'm in charge of feeding myself again

If you ever had just a sliver of something like a song, a movie line, a scene from a book, etc in your memory you had to ask everyone you knew if they recognized it because there was no way to look stuff up
What’s a real thing from your childhood that kids these days would find completely foreign?
Like, how we used to be able to walk right up to the gate to meet our family coming off a flight.
Or how we had to pick a spot to meet at the theater BEFORE we went.

Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

Was just at the grocery store and couldn't find the nuts. I spotted a worker and asked him, where do you keep your nuts and then immediately started giggling. I resisted the urge to just run away and was even able to listen to his answer through the horror wailing in my head

I once saw a bad traffic accident with overturned semis. It looked like giant chunks of concrete came off the overpass but then I realized it was gigantic piles of red or green apples. Later found out a semi carrying green apples fell off the overpass and landed on a semi carrying red apples.
Here's a thing I like to ask every few years: what's the craziest coincidence you've ever experienced? Let's hear 'em.

🚨Handsome mustache alert @bandherbooks.bsky.social The show Dept Q on Netflix has a man with a handsome face and thick mustache! The character is the sweetiest of pies and also a badass mofo. He brings baked goods into the office and just looks at someone who pulls a knife on him like c'mon

Okay, I know I have a lot of social rules that I think everyone just knows and then I'm surprised and angry when "everyone" doesn't follow them, but one that I'm SURE of that I will NEVER understand why my coworkers don't follow is, leave things the way you found them. So simple!

It stresses me out in books when someone mentions being hungry or that they were going to eat and then they can't. The whole time they're doing whatever they're doing all I can think is, "They need to eat!"
