So I've been going to this sweet Thai masseuse since 2021. She's somewhere between 60 and 70-years-old. Honestly, she's getting a bit frail and her wrists are clicking at times and the massages aren't what they used to be, but I didn't have the heart to change her. She and her husband give me that grandparent-y feel while I'm there. I buy massages in advance using a loyalty card and we always have a fun little argument because I offer to pay more. Sigh, all this makes it so much worse. I don't know if naked massages are even a normal thing, but I've I've worn underwear for every massage. I've also gone to other masseuses before her and always wore underwear. I was pretty much clear on that. Underwear stays on. Recently I've been sleeping without clothes on because why not? It feels better. I think it helps with blood circulation or something and I live alone. I'm getting used to taking it all off and lying down on my bed. Been doin...

So yeah this happened last night and I still feel kind of big back af Context, im 19 and live up in Shamattawa with my gf (18). If you know anything about the north, grocery hauls are a big deal because everything is expensive and hard to get. My gf had this specific tub of Betty cream cheese icing jar with the red lid she was saving to bake a cake for her sisters birthday next week. Anyway she went to her aunties for a quick visit so I was just chilling at my PC playing Mortal kombat i got a suddenly urge to eat sugar lmao, went looking for a snack and found the icing. Thought honestly ill just take like one scoop she wont even see. Bro I dont even know what happened. Every time the loading screen popped up I took another scoop By the time I lost a match I looked down and the whole damn tub was empty. 16 ounces of straight sugar just gone. Like 20 mins later my stomach started hurting so bad. Felt like a literal tsunami wave sittin my gut. Right when I heard her walk thru ...

Never felt older in my life. Me (late 20sF) and my two friends J and A (30sF) were talking in our group chat about Halloween plans. We go to this event every year, and the tickets just released. J pointed out prices increased quite a bit this year. I responded and said I haven’t even figured out what I’m going to be. And I ended that message with “Sybau.” Now, I consider myself to be chronically online. I pride myself on being on top of the latest references, pop culture trends, etc. And as the youngest in our trio, it usually falls on me to explain some of the younger references to my friends. Not in this case. Guys, the entire time I’ve seen this word, the hundreds of comments I’ve seen using it, I’ve always thought it was a made up word. Like skibidi. Just gibberish that meant “boohoo” or something along those lines. And I said it in my message directing it at myself. Like, “I haven’t even figured out what I’m going to be. Boohoo. Woe is me.” For context, J and I just ha...

A guy approached me on the street today talking very fast and gesturing at something. My brain completely shut down so instead of saying "I don't understand" I just went into default customer service mode: intense eye contact, polite smiles, nodding and dropping a confident "Yeah exactly absolutely". We stood there for a full two minutes having a completely one-sided highly emotional exchange where I was aggressively validating statements I couldn't comprehend. Right as he shook my hand and walked away looking deeply moved I realized he was speaking a language I don't even share a single root word with. I just stood there on the pavement staring at my hand wondering what profound life agreement I just unwittingly signed. TL;DR: Pretended to understand a tourist speaking a foreign language by nodding and agreeing for two minutes and now I have no idea what I committed to.

First time posting here so here goes. Over the past few months I've been trying to bulk up more. I don't have a huge appetite so I've been researching small ways to increase my calorie consumption in ways that I could tolerate it. Some of these small hacks included adding condiments and sides to meals, having dense snacks throughout the day, or replacing water with juices or smoothies. The last one produced this wonderful story. I'd gone grocery store shopping to pick up my protein powder, frozen fruits, and juice, yes, apple juice specifically. Anyway, one day work I came home feeling so thirsty. It was a hot day in the middle of summer which didnt help. Got dinner ready, and as I was taking a glass out of the cabinet, I thought to myself "you know what, this would be a good time to do what the internet recommended" Put my water pitcher back in the fridge and got out the apple juice. Ended up drinking 4, maybe 5 good-sized glasses of juice and felt pr...

As the title says. I'm going out of town for the night, and was throwing a bag of cat litter away into my apartments dumpster before I left. It was heavy, and the dumpster lip is high. I was wearing my keys on a lanyard around my neck because I don't have pockets. The bag is too heavy for me to lift above my head, so I always get some momentum going by swinging and tossing it in. Well, today the bag somehow caught some of my keys, and I think the ring that was holding my car key, my apartment key, and mailbox key broke. I felt it catch my lanyard, but the momentum was already in full swing. It was too late to stop. As I finished the toss, I saw a few small objects go flying into the trash. Immediately checked my lanyard, and sure enough. My work keys are still there thankfully. We don't have a maintenance line to call at my building (only email or paperwork at the office) so I called the office building. It was closed because its Sunday, but I decided to connect to the ...
