Don’t you guys have salted black licorice, too? That’s like the candy version of adding insult to injury.

It’s made with honey, sugar, butter, and vanilla, and I loooove it.
Took a joy ride on a bulldozer. We built jumps with it and then went over them as fast as that thing would go. No one got hurt and it was a great time, but I think back to how dangerous and stupid it was (no seat belts, one person drove and the rest of us just held onto the cab for dear life, right above the tracks), and realize how lucky we were that nothing bad happened.
For me personally, I would never date someone that had kids. For one, I don’t like kids and am childfree by choice, and two, having been the kid of the parent that started dating after their divorce and ended up with an “evil stepmother” figure in my life, I would never want to be such a person in a child’s life. I don’t care how awesome a step parent you think you’d be, you are infringing upon the relationship between an adult and their biological child, and let me tell you, that 9/10 times, that kid will never like you, whether they state that out loud or keep it to themselves.
Whoa, this is wild! Would totally do that even for a year of being able to handle dairy again!
Yeah, I’ve tried that, I even have these extra strength lactase pills from Europe with like 3x the amount of lactase as Lactaid, but it’s still always unpredictable as to whether it will work or not, and if it doesn’t, it will ruin the rest of my day.
An everything bagel with plain cream cheese. I used to make my own bagels and have them all the time, but as I aged I became lactose intolerant, so I tried some of the vegan cream cheese brands, and let me tell you that shit is NOT the same, so I just stopped baking bagels, and I miss them.
As someone who lived in/around Boulder for many years, let me just say that is SO BOULDER.

You can’t fully trust anyone, not your parents, siblings, extended family, spouse, best friend forever, no one. Don’t count on anyone for anything and accept that the only person in your life who has your best interests at heart is you.
I’ve met a couple Mormons that were reaaaally deep into the shit and talked and acted like robots just parroting all the religious nonsense they’d been fed. But to be fair, I’ve also met some cool Mormons who were less into it and generally just good people.

Not an icecream truck, but the fuel delivery truck music that I heard while I was in a study abroad program in Amman, Jordan is fucking terrifying. Not my video but this is it
Math. I sucked at math since 3rd grade and that shit was a struggle all the way through college. I’m lucky i can even count, I swear to God. Had to pass THREE remedial math courses just to be allowed to take the course that counted for actual credit towards my degree. Lately I’ve been contemplating going back to college for a second degree, but I realized I’d have to take shit like pre-calculus for the degrees I’m looking at and I just don’t think I could do it. My brain is such a letdown.

Yeah, if it’s not something a little stretching or rehydration can’t fix it seems iffy. Talk to a doctor for sure.
Hmm, I have a desk job too, but I get up and stretch a lot, and workout at least twice a week. Does this only happen to you on planes? Do you ever sit for 5 hours anywhere else? Does it happen after like a 3 hour movie, or JUST on planes? I did find this interesting article about soreness and flying: https://www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk/advice/general-travel-health-advice/air-travel
We met at a café for coffee and pastries. He talked about himself non-stop, I couldn’t even get a word in, like not even to ask follow-up questions. Every so often he would realize what he was doing and then pause and sat “Oh, uh, how about you?” as though he finally remembered I was there. I could get about 2 sentences in before he took over the conversation again.
After the first date I was willing to give him a second chance because I know people can talk alot if they’re nervous, so we called each other a few times, but it was the same thing, just him talking the whole time. He would call me after work and ramble for an hour about nothing. I finally broke it off because he just never shut up.
