i wish the movement a very unhappy die, they just make shit harder. i woulda been happy to have most people just… not think about me, and when they did think about me they'd just snicker and think i'm weird. instead they turned me into public enemy number 1 for half of the people in society, who now default assume i'm a completely unhinged lunatic with an unending list of deranged and unreasonable beliefs (instead of the one arguably unreasonable belief that i actually have, which is just… 'maybe this is a good idea, hol up lemme cook').
okay morgan freewoman calm down

Only Canadians can know and understand toques. If you have to look up what it means YOU WILL NEVER BE ONE OF US
that's the difference when a british or australian person comes here they always don't know what a toque is or the word is just too jarring for them for some reason even though it's french and they spell all their words like retardes anyways

For as much shit as I gave my dad about "aluminium" and his other Britishisms when I was a child, I am eternally grateful to him for the optionality it introduced to my use of the language. It all feels ~natural to me. Probably wouldn't have half as refined a grasp of English were it not for his indirect, osmotic tutelage.
My British friend says "VITamin C" instead of vightamin and I always laugh so he's taken to calling it "vit C" which sounds cooler but It's kinda funny because it doesn't seem like organic slang. I get hepatitis C got shortened to hep C so Mayb it works

If I've done the same before, it is also likely because I was trying to communicate with someone who'd call it petrol IRL. Also I specifically don't like saying "huffing gas" because I am autistic and it sounds like I'm talking about huffing some non-specific gaseous thing, so I'd probably default to "huffing gasoline" in conversation with you if we were talking about it. Honestly though, I dunno: my dad is from Liverpool and I grew up hearing British words/pronunciations a lot, so they feel pretty interchangeable to me - he calls it petrol and pronounces "garage" as "gare-edge".
Don't ever dumb down your vernacular for me
(Not that I know what that word means)

About a year ago, I was running a small video game tournament in the small company I owned.
The waitlist had a full list of 16 people, and it was fine, until one entitled parent ruined it for everyone. So we were starting up the games when a dad ran into the store with his son.

Dad: We’re here for the tournament. Me: Oh sorry, but the list is full. Dad: Well then, make some room. Me: I can’t do tha—
Dad: Listen, I can get you fired with the push of a button.

Me: How? Dad: I have been friends with the CEO of this company for a long time. Me: Then call him. I watch him make a fake phone call then hang up. Because I know something he doesn’t know. Dad: He says you’re fired. Me: That's funny, considering I am the CEO.

His look of shock still makes me laugh to this day.

Yeah maybe he just wants to drink smoke and fuck. Maybe that's what we all really want at the end of the day. To drink. And then to smoke. And then, of course, to fuck. In any order, often simultaneously.

have you considered… like… resigning yourself to a life with no pussy and praying? by which i do not mean become a clergyman, just… accept it ain't gonna happen, but hold onto a sliver of hope? divert your energy away from the places it's currently going, and toward literally anything other than social stuff? you're autistic. doing speed and trying to get laid is cringe when you do it. (i know from experience)
yea, do what i did when i did speed, shut yourself out from the world and blast happy hardcore and paint everything/deconstruct your furniture/trash the place then just once a month or so get twacked the fuck out and clean for 24 hours straight but never actually get anywhere with cleaning because you get too caught up meticulously cleaning like a 4 foot square area the entire time
