"Flowers?"

Thanks for reminding me of this sketch. So great.

"Theresa's Sound World" by Sonic Youth is the first to come to mind. The whole of Daydream Nation could probably count, honestly.

"Everything in its Right Place" by Radiohead (edit: idiot autocorrect) is another one I've often taken an audio bath in. Much of that album works too. I just hate the final song.

Ah, the goose just needs to go to Gaul!

Yum! Thank you for posting. I will refer to this next time I make some muffins. Which will definitely be sooner now!

Absolutely horrendous. Please never listen to whoever gave you that. I am very serious: that shows such a lack of understanding anything about people, whoever is using this as a teaching material should be fired and banned from working with children. But they won't, because toxic bullshit like this is what administrators love.

I am really sorry this is your educational experience. It is not supposed to be like this. Introversion and extroversion are just stupid labels that try to make things easy. Those labeled introverts are often the most generous, thoughtful people who actually listen to and cooperate with others.

Glad I finally got off world and can see your comments again. Missed you. Not trying to be weird, I just like your style.

Yeah, it's kinda similar to teriyaki.

With all the spices and honey used in ancient Egyptian embalming, I'm sure the Victorians were on to something! What could go wrong? They were fine, right?

You also really undercooked all of them. Needs at least a little brown on the edges. Center can be nearly raw tho, for the textural contrast.

Bro, I am perfectly aware of all that. I have noticed this specific user making this comment more than once with no lmao (which is usually short for "laughing my ass off" not "out") or other indication of levity.

I was trying to be a nice human and check in on a fellow human. Humor is a wonderful thing and can be a great tool for dealing with life, but it can also be a cover for fear and sadness that needs to be addressed.

Yes, I'm being serious in a meme community. You can choose to ignore me if this set you off. But in that case, maybe you need to consider how you are using humor to ignore the things you need to work on.

If you were simply trying to help someone you honestly thought was new to the internet, I appreciate your attempt. But your style of interaction makes me feel like you are trying to belittle an attempt to honestly show care for another human, and that is not cool.

Please, let's not make that the norm it was at the other place. There are enough other places where you can go on the internet and be this kind of immature.

Aw, that sucks, but good for you for staying firm. It's hard to have patience, but you are doing the right thing for her. Thank you for the update, and thank you for being there for Sandy.
