When I was about 7/8yrs old, I ended up in an elevator alone with an elderly couple who proceeded to debate with one another whether I was a boy or a girl, while making direct eye contact with me.
The woman argued I must be a girl because of my pretty hair and face, while her husband was sure I must be a boy, given my... outfit and eyebrows? They never bothered to asked me, and I exited the elevator without saying a word to them
I got fucking whiplash from this lmao
Awe, that's cute! For her to smile and wave back though you must be fairly attractive yourself, even if she didn't do so unprompted!
My primary hypothesis is the woman somehow thought I flipped her off. Imagining a stranger smiling at me and showing me their middle finger, I might have a similar reaction lol
I'm just sitting here refreshing this thread waiting for more stories, so I'm gonna share another one.
I was talking to a black man with the most gorgeous blue eyes. I complimented him on his eyes, and he asked, genuinely, "you know how I got blue eyes?", and there's really only 3 options- 2 mixed parents, or 1 white and 1 mixed, so I took a stab at it and said "you got a white dad?" This man's eyes went WIDE like I was a damn witch. He got real serious and asked "how'd you know that??" I told him I just guessed, but it was clear he didn't believe me as he scratched his chin and put some distance between us
This is a great question!
When I was like 17, I was driving (the speed limit, no music playing) through my friend's neighborhood when I passed a woman out grabbing her mail. I gave a little wave and smiled, and she looked at me like I had just punted a fucking infant.
I felt so offended, and I've never forgotten that look on her face- I would love to know what her perspective on this is/was.
When I was put on bupropion it made me dissociative, but I'm also bipolar which may have played a role. My psych prescribed it bc she didn't want to put me on a classical stimulant specifically because I'm bipolar. I ended up on Ritalin though, which didn't have significant adverse effects
Yeah, I could get on board with that
I THINK YOU MIGHT BE LOST BROTHER! BUT THAT'S OKAY, SOMETIMES LEMMY GETS A LITTLE FUNNY, AND ALL WE CAN DO IS KEEP CRANKIN OUR HOGS!!
I prefer ass to ass therapy, personally
Okay well I'm also autistic- how bout that?
No one's actually saying abolish prisons
Me:
"Finna" = "Fixing to" = "About to"
Not really part 2 but it's on theme and I thought that title was creative and I can't be that creative twice in one day
Made this meme a while ago from that tweet but never shared it
it's bad to invade the privacy of ants with a magnifying glass even though you just want to be their friend because you're just a bodyless head with a freak long tongue and you have to respect when the ants get mad at you about invading their privacy even if they show you their middle finger even if it makes you cry you're not allowed to invade their privacy like that but it was just a mistake though he's not a bad person

I settled for nonbinary actually lol
