Raging LibTarg

I was going to say, I bet there’s a game where you click recommended until you land on a video that is some kind of abhorrent conspiracy nonsense.

CAFO

Don’t waste your time keeping toxic “friends” around. People who exhibit behaviors that demonstrate a low maturity level at an age where they could/should have grown out of it twice aren’t going to by the time they drive you insane.

I cut my father out of my life just about 20 years ago. He was a selfish alcoholic, drug abuser (I like to have fun like anyone else, but I’m not about pawn my kid’s PlayStation when I don’t have the money to get the goods like my former father did), malingerer and overall shitty dad.

It took years not to let the traits I inherited from him hold me back and/or hurt others, but I can say I’m pretty fucking successful now; I have a dream job, dream home and will be marrying the love of my life next month.

Everything I have now is in spite of him and my shitty upbringing.

I like the cut of your jib!

I was what I think we would now call a “weeb” in my junior/senior year of high school, and had studied Japanese culture before making a short trip over there in the summer. One of the things I learned was that blowing your nose in public is seen as bad manners, and it really stuck with me. When you think about it, it is pretty gross to loudly blow snot into a tissue (bonus points for carrying a handkerchief!) in front of others, like (as an American) we’ll just do this at the dinner table without batting an eye.

To this day, I try not to blow my nose in public places or in front of folks if I can avoid it, because it has grossed me out ever since learning how Japanese culture perceives it.
