  • Well America itself is actually 6 time zones with the largest gap being 6 hours between the Eastern time zone and the Hawaii-Aleutian time zone so it could just be that OP

    1. Is dumb
    2. Is being intentionally vague for intrigue/outrage
    3. just lives in a country with one time zone and didn’t have to think about it. This could be true even if they live in a big ass county like China or India since they both only recognize one time zone each for their own reason.

  • I absolutely think you should wait until you secure a new place.

    As someone who has done the breakup thing with someone I’m living with, and also broken up with someone after helping them find a new place to live (I used our cats not getting along as an excuse). I can say with no doubt in my mind that I preferred the situation where another place to live was found first. It’s better for finances and it’s better to give y’all time away from each other.

    There are a few and especially imo one fuckin major downside though to moving then splitting: the splitting of the items. Living with someone post breakup you have way more time to start really taking inventory of what is yours. Depending on how cordial y’all are I’ve also seen it workout such that it COULD result in you remaining friends easier.

    That being said, in my experience at least, that being friends by living together depends WAAAYY more on the person in question. Like I lived with an ex and it was fine but I’ve also lived with an ex and they were fuckin nuts sneaking into my room and looking through my shit all the time.

    Disclaimer: My current situation is goofy bc me and the person I’m with are like back and forth on even wanting to date but we’re so intertwined in each other’s financial situations that like I can’t decide if they wanna stay with me bc they actually like me or bc they’re so concerned about not being able to afford life.

    I do really see both sides to this. At the end of the day though getting away from one another is necessary 99% of the time. If you want to be friends you need time away from one another. Also, even if you’ve been with them a long time it’s nearly impossible to tell how fuckin crazy a breakup will make someone.

    I had a seemingly normal loving person i was with for 3 years (the one I helped get her own place that i mentioned earlier) just destroy my room when one of my roommates let her back in after our breakup.


  • What my man Edric here says is facts bc doing that in the summer or the winter is balls.

    It’s ok ish spring and late fall but between our car delivery people and the cart people two of them got hit by a car within 6 months or so.

    I’d much rather keep my annoying ass spot in electronics than be constantly pinching my fingers on carts and finnicking with the stupid cart wrangler controller in the hot sun or freezing winter








  • Answer without oversharing: Could be better ¯\(ツ)

    Answer oversharing a shit ton and telling y’all stuff I haven’t told anyone else: Just moved to a new area to finish school and I’m struggling to find a job. I’m also concerned my s/o isn’t attracted to me but I’m trying to avoid seeming to insecure about it to her.

    I dunno there’s something scratching in my brain like all of this was a mistake or something. But it’s not really like there’s an alternative.

    I’m trying to be optimistic though.

    That being said I’m feeling so unwanted that I ended up redownloading tinder. I don’t intend to go on any dates or anything. I did download bumble bff so maybe I’ll hangout with someone from there.

    Idk what I’m even doing on tinder or in my life in general. I’m just hoping things will be less fuckin weird once school starts back up.

    I’m replaying the Witcher 3 tho that’s p neat Neonknight’s videos have revived my love for it.



  • I think it’s a bit flawed because I was I dunno 3? I don’t remember anything about 9/11.

    I figure if you don’t remember anything about 9/11 or you weren’t alive yet you’re not gonna just make 1 of 300 identical comments about how you were at home shitting your diaper or swimming around in your daddy’s balls ¯_(ツ)_/¯ but maybe I’m wrong.


  • I’ll give two but both of them are more situational than they are explicit design flaws.

    The more recent one: I was driving with my current girlfriend to Tennessee from Georgia on an incredibly twisty, narrow mountain road that was simultaneously undergoing construction. Not too bad right?

    Well this construction meant big ass barriers blocking the shoulders entirely. That + it being 2-3 AM, pitch black, and raining it’s needless to say my steering wheel still has the imprints from my terrified grip that day. I wish I could’ve stuck my head out and asked the other drivers if they were as stressed out about that road as I was.

    Second one: first ever driving in snow back in December of 2019 I wanna say. I was I dunno 21?

    My now ex-girlfriend and I decided to take my car on our road trip from Georgia to Colorado because I had just gotten new tires. Sounds like a good idea, right? Little did we know my fuckin heater would give out maybe two hours into the trip. Cut forward a few hours we’re in the flat hell that is Kansas and there’s a whole ass blizzard happening.

    Driving through heavy snow for the first time in my life was daunting enough but add on the fact that my windshield would not stop freezing over/fogging up, my now ex-girlfriend yelling at me about how cold it was, and my extremities losing feeling as my ex hogged the space heater I wired to my car battery and you have a pretty miserable ass trip.

    I drove the whole way through. I drove all 24 hours without switching off to let her drive because she was too scared to drive in those conditions. I mean I can’t really blame her for that but I can blame her for being really mean to me the whole time and I can blame her for how she acted when we broke up the next month.
