I am trying to get diagnosed as an adult and recently reached out to my parents for symptoms from when I was younger as those are necessary for adult diagnosis. My mom had pretty much the same reaction as you when I went over the symptoms. Lol ADHD is genetic.
Actual food? Probably yogurt at like one or two months. It had been sealed up until then.
I’ve had table syrup that was at least 4 years past the expiration (it actually still had the aunt Jemima on the bottle is how old it was).
A few days ago I finished some baking powder and my partner brought a big bottle home and I was like “oh it’s okay that stuff doesn’t expire!” Then I looked at the previous container I had and found out it had, in fact, expired in 2017. Don’t think it affected my baking though.
I mostly just eat stuff without looking at the dates unless it smells bad or is moldy.
Quads was fucking wild. I remember watching it in between Undergrads and the Oblongs. The wonders of having both parents work night shifts.
Chris Meloni’s character in Happy is actually just Stabler. His whole backstory as a disgraced cop is essentially really him (I think they even show a picture of him right out of SVU) but he had to change his name for protection.
I actually think I get paid a decent wage at ~$35/hr (CAD) but the cost of living is just so goddamn high where I live that it’s not quite enough to get me by comfortably. So really, if I were doing this job elsewhere then that’s fine, my job’s really not that hard. but realistically, because of the state of my province, I’d give them my 100% for 45. They seem pretty happy with the 75% I’m putting in now though (some days less).
BLTs also have mayo, and preferably a hell of a lot of it. They are garbage without it.
I learned last year that you’re supposed to floss BEFORE you brush. I have no idea why no one ever taught me that.
I’m not gonna click on that link because there’s no way this is true. You can’t fool me.
I’m still reeling over cemetery not being spelled cementary and it’s been 20 years.
I’m just as angry as the next guy but I’m not gonna shame my boomer mom for not being able to figure out pirating or how to stream things to her tv. Could barely get her to figure out her tv man.
A book that stuck with me for a long time was The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. It was a fairly quick read too, I’m a slow reader so definitely longer than a day but I think I read it over a short vacation.
Had to check myself cause my brain wanted to say “maybe some of them got in there for the right reasons”, which, idk maybe but the incarceration system is garbage and ACAB in the end.
It’s a small win but after months of agonizing over my contract end date and a million rejected job applications, I got extended for another few months. Honestly just a huge weight off my shoulders as I desperately needed a break from the job search and was only a couple weeks away from the end date. Plus, it’s looking likely they’ll be able to make my position permanent by the end of this extension 🤞🏽
I live in a suburban more than totally rural area but we have lots of trails and bushy areas around. Usually they just set up tents on the side of those trails. Walked past a guy who had an entire cot set up and was just napping on the side of a trail midday the other day. The benches in our area are also less anti-homeless than the ones downtown so I don’t doubt people sleep there at night.
I saw a video of one guy (who isn’t homeless but does urban camping on YouTube) set up camp in the middle of a roundabout with lots of bushes and I think that’s honestly probably one of the best spots where people wouldn’t find you/call cops on you.
I had a really bad coffee stain on my front teeth. Had tried the crest ones for a while but they weren’t helping. My hygienist did some treatment and told me it’ll probably come back because of the texture of my teeth, but told me to use the crest ones a few days ahead of a special event if I wanted a touchup. Stain came back.
Went to the dentist for an unrelated issue and my dentist noticed the stain, literally filed down my tooth in like 2 seconds and for free, and the stain has never come back again, lol.
When not in the mood for talking, singing bowls for sure.
When my brain can’t stop and I need a distraction, either the sleep with me podcast or welcome to nightvale. Sometimes Sleep Whispers but that one can be over stimulating for my lil ASMR brain.
When we started dating my partner told me I look like Jeff Goldblum (I am a female). He then bought us a Jeff Goldblum curtain for the bathroom and a portrait we put on the wall, as well as several records, keychains and cushions with Jeff (including that Jurassic park one). It’s weird as fuck but Jeff’s a handsome guy and a cool fucking person so I’m not too worried about it.
Gotta love those microaggressions
I used to do this with a straw while head was upside down. Worked really well when I was younger but haven’t tried it recently.
I do the thing where you drink water while rubbing your tongue on the roof of your mouth. Success rate is pretty low tbh.
Similar situation but I was at a work event sitting next to a colleague I didn’t know very well. We work in IT so our boss had placed a bunch of fidget toys at each table. After maybe 10 minutes of us being there, she grabbed one and said “here, you need this”.
It did actually help me that day and now I just carry one with me or else just stim with my jewelry, which I hadn’t noticed is something I do until that day.
