I also over analyze everything, which is why I always remove my eggs from the right side of the carton.
The left side of the carton is always towards me in the refrigerator, and I also always have the left side towards me on the counter.
As a result my first grab out of the fridge is always the most stable grab possible.
The way I figure it is, the most dangerous time is pulling it out of the fridge when I don't always remember where the eggs are and where I have to grab it from one end. I don't want to be surprised by it being heavy away from me.
Once I have it safely in my hand, I no longer have to consciously think about how to hold it, as that can all be done unconsciously.
Salt is scarier than the elements sodium or chlorine because, according to Wikipedia, "Salt is essential for life in general." Without salt, there wouldn't be humans creating things like chlorine gas. Life is scary.
The message is obvious. "If somebody hurts you, then any revenge is permissible, even against people whose only sin is living near them. Even if children are starving to death, it's okay if it's revenge."
The lack of humanity in Israel's actions is simply hard to comprehend.
Supreme Court justice being friends with billionaire, receiving expensive presents, and then never recusing and always ruling in their favor? They have no problem.
But an FBI agent being friends with another FBI agent who was targeted by a conspiracy theory? They think this is the end of the world.
It also has an official music video, but it's weird, because I could actually listen to this one as a normal song, but it's not nearly as funny as the Countdown version.
Everybody who has worked with Musk says that he has to be distracted when he goes to Tesla, SpaceX, or whatever, because otherwise, he'll just cause problems for the adults who are actually working. He has no idea how to run a business, and basically just publicly lies to inflate the value of his businesses, and relies on the fact that there are no consequences for rich people lying.
Every semi-intelligent person who has worked with Trump says that he's one of the dumbest people they've ever met.
Literally just saying how things are, not how I wish them to be. The straightforward and obvious solution for one person is often not the best, in general. But it's still a solution for that person.
The reason the term “involuntary” is used is to differentiate from voluntary celibates, like Catholic priests, who the cultural zeitgeist most readily associates with the word “celibate”. You’re reading too much into it.
People often intentionally use the wrong words when describing themselves when using the correct words makes them sound bad. "pro life" "national socialism" are a couple of well-known examples.
The first person who used the term "involuntary celibate" was using it for sympathy, not accuracy. "Involuntary" was never the correct word because "celibate" wasn't the correct word, as "celibate" has the connotation of being a choice. They used the wrong term because something like "sexless" doesn't get sympathy.
Like, seriously, I’m giving you my personal lived experience, and you’re putting words in my mouth and calling me names.
I probably shouldn't have talked about "you" so much, but the reason I did is that you are talking not only about yourself, but about the subject, and I realized that you haven't actually changed, and that you still need help. And I don't remember calling you any names. And I'm not putting words in your mouth. I am literally quoting you. I am using your choice of words to expose you to yourself.
If I am walking through the forest and a sink hole opens up underneath me, and I fall in and can’t get out, I am involuntarily in that hole.
That's not how we use the word, though. Nobody calls that "involuntary" if it's just a hole that happened to be there. If somebody put you in the hole, then it's involuntary. The way "involuntary" is used in English, there is a connotation of an entity with a will that overrides your will.
If How to Win Friends isn't a good book, then read a different one. There are even ones about relationships for autistic people now. Don't complain that there are too many. That's why we have ratings. When you say "the floodgates are open", you're just trying to blame somebody else for your lack of effort.
But from your description of it, I can tell that you didn't actually try How to Win Friends. IIRC, the first lesson is "smile". Then, there are other lessons like, "practice giving genuine compliments" and "use people's names when talking to them." Literally, all you have to do is follow the instructions, and you'll have better results. But it sounds like you rejected the advice without trying it. Or in other words, no effort, blame the author and the people who recommended it. It's really the same thing over and over.
I never blamed women for my sex life.
You literally described it that way in your first comment: "trying to figure out how to get women to have sex with me". You could have said, "trying to figure out how to have sex with women," but you didn't. You phrased it that way because that's how you think about it. You blamed the women, and you still do.
But boy howdy. You really want to compare yourself to starving subsistence farmers in Africa?
Overall, there is a lot of dishonesty in your last comment. I'm trying to figure out whether it's that you simply refuse to admit the truth to yourself, or if you're doing it intentionally.
They have even more cubic feet.
