I was in high school, and I remember babysitting my brother's kids for new years. I'd invited a friend to hang out with me while I watched them, but her parents were very freaked out about Y2K and insisted she stay home with them. They did do some prepping on water and canned goods, but not quite to the "bunker under their floorboards" level. As for me and my family, we carried on as if life would continue as normal, and thanks to countless people working tirelessly, it did just that.
I was a towhead, which means I was born blonde and it turned to brown as I got older. When I first started noticing my hair turning darker, I asked my mom why and she told me it was because I ate too much peanut butter. I stopped eating it for about a week until I decided that I loved peanut butter more than being a blonde.
I'm a stay at home mom and a former teacher. My husband does IT, which means I do even less tech stuff than when I was single because I always just call him. I really like Lemmy. I was a casual Redditor and never used any third party apps, but after coming here to check it out, I'm now planning to stay.
I always think my husband is cute, especially when he first wakes up and is still a bit groggy. It's the disheveled hair that gets me.
That's amazing, I have the same combination for my luggage!
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
If the ticks didn't get me, my allergies would.
If only they could be like NASCAR and have their sponsors labeled on their jackets.
There's definitely a lot to be said about the exhaustion from long flights. I used to travel often between east Asia and the States, so I had to get used to sleeping on planes out of necessity. I'd always try to get a long layover in either Seoul or Beijing because their airports allowed for sleep. Seoul had a layover area where there were reclining lounges that were really comfortable to sleep on, and Beijing has a hotel in the airport where you can get a single room with a bed. It also has a shower, which is awesome when you're getting off of a 10+ hour flight.

Shocked Pikachu face.
This kind of nonsense is why my mom moved in with us. There are so many horror stories about elderly abuse, and those homes are freaking expensive!
I met my best friend when we were in our late 20s. We were assigned as roommates while teaching English in Thailand. I'm more introverted and she's more extroverted, so our early friendship was her finding fun things to do and me tagging along. We have different outlooks at times, but similar values, which is good because we can help balance each other out.
As for what has made our friendship so strong, it's largely because of rough times we've gone through together. We've been there for each other in good times, bad times, and really awful times. She is family. Fortunately, our daughters are also best friends now! And our husbands get along okay, too.
That's why some parking lots put a cement curb a few feet away from the sidewalk, where the tires should stop.
I'm cheating a bit with a 1994 movie, but I genuinely enjoy watching Wagons East! It has 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, but I like it. I'm probably the exact target audience: I like westerns, and I like movies that make fun of them.
Doubting the prestigious New York Post?? Blasphemy.
Holding my 3 months old baby while reading this broke my heart. I don't think I'd ever recover.
Same thing in Thailand as well. Malls will never go extinct because they're air conditioned areas that anyone can enter.
For short periods of time, it can be really cathartic to listen to songs that express my darker feelings, but if I listen to them for too long then it just perpetuates the low emotions. When I'm depressed, I need to listen to a variety. Fortunately, I'm usually too tired to search for songs when I'm depressed, so radio does the trick.
40F from the West coast, USA and the first car I bought was a manual Toyota Camry. Man, I loved that car. Up until I got T-boned by a Bronco. All of my cars afterwards were automatic for convenience and safety, but I miss my little manual car. It had great gas mileage.
Lurelin village would also be great. I'd go fishing all day and teach them how to make hammocks.
I would also definitely go to live in animal crossing, but that was before I became a parent. Now, there's no way I'd leave them forever. Even a year would be really hard.
I'm also using a Pixel, and the Jerboa app seems to be doing well (for the whole 20 minutes I've been using it so far).
I like casual gaming videos, and often watch Mr. A Game and QuinBoBin, particularly their Zelda videos.
I also enjoy a good analysis, so Cinema Therapy is my go-to.
I have young children in the house, so it can be hard to find entertaining videos that don't have bad language that I don't want parroted back to me.
You should also know that technically only the piece marked as genuine leather needs to actually be genuine leather. If you buy something made with multiple pieces, the rest could be made from any material so long as that one piece is genuine.
