    Put your handheld valuables or nice trinkets away anytime a friend is bringing over someone you don’t know. I miss my PSP :(

      I was about to comment There wasn’t any bitcoin in the late nineties!

      Then I realized that not everyone is the same age as me. Apparently I’m very high 😅

  • Don’t smoke cigarettes ever.

    Slow down at that blind corner in October 1989.

    Don’t take the shortcut to downtown in July 1994.

    Don’t lift that giant tube tv by yourself in May 2005.

    Never stop exercising, playing guitar, writing, and painting/multimedia art.

      Yeah this thread is 70% sad-sack life stories, 10% Sports Almanac financial advice, and 20% popping around the corner with a rainbow flag yelling SURPRISE!

    Keep hiding when you hear him come. It’ll get better. You’ll leave and he’ll die, alone. She loves you but must deal with her own issues which are related to being his wife. Hang in there.

        This exchange made me realize how gender the tea party scene from Toy Story is. Buzz is a high masc, high femme bi-gender icon.

    Hell no. You actually think in this social climate, as a grown-ass man I’m gonna be seen talking to a ten-year-old boy whose relationship to me can’t be explained in a way any reasonable person would believe?!

    That little shit can figure it out on his own, just like I had to.

    You’re not lazy, you’re not stupid, and you’re not a loser. You just have ADHD, and once you figure that out things will get much, much easier. Hang in there.

      That’s pretty much exactly what I would say. I’m grateful there’s so much more awareness now. But it would have been waaayy easier to find out in my teens than in my 30s, now that I have years of ingrained habits and self destructive thinking. Its like carving wood instead of shaping play doh.

    Hey! It’s ok that you feel like a girl trapped in a boys body! Mom and Dad won’t really like it, but they will eventually come around. You can do this!

    Don’t do drugs. Ever.

    If you are being pressured by your peers, change them. There are other peers out there who will value your decision.
