Is it really an addiction? What happens to you if you don’t have any money to spend on this? Or, say, for some reason there are no more gambling opportunities or sex workers in your area?

Looking at this cup gives me anxiety

I love it. Didn’t know it existed.

Soy Sauce literally translates to “I’m Willow tree”

No, that’d be Leche. Soy milk is just English milk introducing itself in Spanish

Problem is only you can redeem yourself. This feels a bit pointless to me, in particular since it appears you’re unable to draw boundaries, which means you are leaving yourself open to be taken advantage of, which in turn just perpetuates unfairness.

6 year old you isn’t you anymore. I don’t know what you did, maybe you killed someone, but my point still stands all the same.

Be careful, one of them may try to take over the world

So, out of curiosity - what number do you see in the yellow circle?

Are you kidding me? You telling me now the trend will be watching a movie in theaters with the seats in front of you lit up with phone screens most of the time?

What!? I think I’ve done a loop at least once when missing the exit (to catch it properly in the second attempt).

OP!!! RIGHT HERE!!! I FOUND THE RESPONSIBLE AF PERSON!!!

How about just messy? Occasionally I still find them laying around

This would go great in TIL rather than showerthoughts

Calm down. Have a cup of tea. There’s this type I recommend, I think you’ll love, it’s called Earl Grey

All that knowledge forever lost

No… I read your quote straight through and without issues. I had to re-read many of the sentences in OP’s quote and put effort to make sense out of them. Your quote feels normal, with flourishes, but normal. OP’s quote doesn’t. For me there is no comparison.

I would argue Sherlock Holmes, Verne, and Monte Cristo (which I really like) read nothing like the slob OP posted. (I’ve never read Oliver Twist though).

I started reading, I drifted away at about the mud part so I restarted. This is really not my cuppa tea when it comes to text. On the second run I did better but no, I didn’t manage to visualize everything. The Megalosaurus sentence doesn’t make much sense to me. The text is convoluted, boring, and depressing but yes I guess I see the shitty street, the animals, the people -a crowd-, the miserable weather.

I’m aware of more information I’m not really processing but I’m just too annoyed at the text to apply the necessary brainpower required to digest it. It’s almost 2 AM and I’m tired.

Then I make it to the end and realize it’s Dickens, and that explains everything. I never liked his writing. Good night.

Not sure what a comfort game is. I love TES, but when I just want something easy on the mind I’ll pick an AARPG. Path of Exile is a good one. Clear a map, loot, repeat. No complicated moves or exploration required. Etc.

So, um, still single like me?
