  • Almost all idioms we use commonly actually originally meant the opposite. "Blood is thicker than water" is a longer saying about chosen family being the true strongest bond. "Great minds think alike" finishes with but fools seldom differ. A few bad apples, spoil the bunch. "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps" only a fool would try it. It's the most human thing in the world to twist sayings to mean the opposite.

  • As with all things felt, we describe them based on other similar things we feel. You say food is "rich" when it gives you the same feeling that you have been told by others in the past that they are rich. You know the feeling of liking something, and when you like something a lot, you are told that is love. Media will warn you that love can boil over into obsession, but there is no way to feel that difference. It is a determination made by others from the outside. So much like agony is an extreme pain, love is an extreme like. And there is absolutely no way to know if you are "experiencing it" or not.

  • For those that don't know, first world is the allies in world War 2. Second world are the axis. And third world countries are those that didn't participate, you know, like Switzerland.

  • I once called a friend a few times after school because I wanted to hang out like an hour apart. My mother told me that if they wanted to talk to me, they would call me. I struggle to keep relationships now and only have like four people I truly consider a friend.

  • Very interesting to see people talk about America becoming more Nazi like when America supported Hitler at first, we had Hitler Youth summer camps for kids, set up concentration camps for Japanese citizens, practiced eugenics on 'inferior people' of a few types, invaded other nations... I feel we should talk about the Americanization of Nazi's more...

  • Men are raised to bring money into the household, and it can easily be half a years wages to go to the hospital. It's weird to act like they are being malicious to their partner by being this way.
