4. anything involving food.

Honestly, mealtime was easily one of my biggest childhood traumas. I barely ate anything, didn't really have any favorites, and even when I did, a tiny snack felt like a full meal. Like, half a popsicle or two squares of chocolate would fill me up completely. Seriously. That went on until middle school.

The daycare teachers were way more chill about it than my parents were. 😉

Beautiful 😍

Garbage

Could that little smudge on the sidewalk 😁 actually be Dinosaur Jr.? 🤔

The Pixies don't even fly. Whoever made this poster has zero clue. 🙄

Wrong 🙂

Cowboy Junkies

Eeels

Where are the Pixies? You guys basically invented them😛

Wait, how did I miss the Eagles? They're just chilling right there in the top right corner of the pic, flying by.

🤣

I didn't need naps. They figured it was easier to let me play with dice than deal with me constantly pulling other kids' hair and legs just to wake them up.

Top 10 things I remember from preschool:
1. The food (mostly just dry crackers and donuts 😍 maybe some fruit salad 👎 )
2. That one dentist who visited us once
3. Homemade tire swings in the playground
4. Slippers that were identical to Igor's
5. Those fancy waltz dresses I wanted to wear, but I was way too tiny and they all looked huge on me... 🙂
6. My best friends
7. My friend's boyfriend and mine (damn, we were ahead of our time)
8. Parties where Santa would show up and those red gift bags we got
9. The red roof
10. The school's name ("reporter Joe" 🤣 )

Eh 😬

Looks like Radiohead is playing over by those street performers, just a bit to the left 😳

Also, let me know where 🙂
is at.

Guns N' Roses 🙂

Wrong, where'd the Kennedys go?

Just got this in my inbox. Need to try and ID as many band names and artists as possible from this image.

At first glance, all I'm seeing is Matchbox 20 and Led Zeppelin. 😬 Maybe Black Flag? 🤔 And Smashing Pumpkins. Alice in Chains...

Come on... 🙂

I always just think about that terrible translation of that one line from the Forrest Gump book: life is like a box of Candy, you never know what you're gonna get.
🙂

I usually just hit people who try too hard to quote Forrest with, "Yeah, if you're an idiot and don't read the fine print." 🤣

That bit about the Candy is pretty spot on. 😂

Jerry Mitchell62 said:Yeah, this tea has always been a total mystery to me. Especially after I tried that Uzun tea. Huge mistake.

Hey, what kind were you drinking? I hear those authentic loose-leaf teas from China taste just like water used to boil spinach. Honestly, that would go pretty well with 😬

lonebison37 said:cool.
nah, tea salami? specialty salami?
🙂

Ummm... can I jump in here?
1) goes great with tea biscuits 😁
2) the best way to describe this specialty meat would be via Forrest Gump... "you never know what you're gonna get" 😁 since they throw all sorts of "special" bits in there

ruggedcrane22 said:That's because those balls aren't meant for actual games; they're just for rehab exercises. Mostly used in physical therapy.

Wow, look at physical therapy evolving. 🙂

Pretty sure medical training nowadays is basically just for school kids. 😢

God. 🙂Just...

The five material textures I assign to colors after getting maybe three hours of sleep (if I'm lucky):

1. Red — rough metal
2. Blue — velvet, or maybe some kind of chewy rubber
3. Green — hairy, grassy, or a shag carpet
4. Purple — something sharp, like a spindle
5. Yellow — thin plastic or wax

Foreign languages? Yeah, I’m pretty much hopeless at them. 😢

He doesn't have any trouble following what those translators are saying. He's basically a polyglot.

Ivo Farcic from the A. G. law firm.

😂

Dammit. 😂

stormyviper11 said:Every single time I turn this thing on and queue up a band I actually want to hear, they just force the Smiths on me instead. Typical. 🙄

Too true. 🤣

Timothy Jones85 said:If I had the chance, I’d be hitting the gym six hours a week...

You still in high school? 😲 🤔

Melissa Sanchez37 said:Oh boy... I could never jump a hurdle, let alone a horse; I fell flat on my face during dodgeball; and once they lifted me off the ground in gymnastics, I started screaming from pure terror. Also, NEVER (and I mean never) did I actually hit anyone playing tag. 😁

I loved gymnastics. Honestly, with a tiny bit of practice, I think I could nail a handstand again. But I absolutely loathed PE—I would've taken a detention just to sit on the bleachers for the rest of the hour. And that stupid six-minute run? Whoever designed that workout clearly wanted people to suffer from collapsed lungs, internal bleeding, or passing out. 😠

Basta said:Some random idiots torched the scaffolding set up in San Diego for a movie shoot and trashed some historic monuments while they were at it. 😵 👎

Yeah, great idea—let's just burn down historical landmarks because we don't like the movie's theme. Brilliant move.

Once again, explaining this to the morons 👏 👎

brightridge19 said:I’d make a rule that you can't complain about an elective you picked yourself...

...unless things changed in the meantime? 😁

Oh, yeah, they definitely changed. It's a mandatory course by the ninth semester now. Attendance is required too, and Lipovac is there scanning signatures just to make sure nobody else is signing for us. Real high-class stuff, I tell ya. 🙄 🙄 🙄

Worst classes I ever had to sit through in college? Honestly, it’s like you’re reading my mind. Let’s see...

1. Intro to Urban Planning & Construction Law (the gold standard of misery)
2. Educational Facility Design (silver medal tier)
3. Mechanics (bronze medal—still got PTSD from that one)

Nicholas Perez33's top list is spot on. 😍
