In my younger years I passed out in public 3 separate times, once it was just me and my mom outside a bank, which wasn't too bad, but the second time I was at an all-school assembly, and the third time I was at an Easter Sunday church service, and every time it was embarrassing as fuck.

Anything computer-related

grasshopper_mouse , 5 days ago to Asklemmy in What thing could your parents do the most significantly better than you?

They are both intellectually superior to me and my brother, their only children. I'm pretty sure he and I are a bit of a disappointment to both of them, but they would never admit that.

I'm addicted to Polar seltzer if that counts

I was lucky enough to spend a semester abroad in NSW Australia when I was in high school and I volunteered at a wild animal sanctuary there and they had some flying foxes. They were so cool, but you had to be careful when you entered their cage because they would either climb all over you or piss on your head.

The Large Flying Fox. Absolute unit of a bat.

I got called to take a Gallop Poll once. I was totally surprised and probably sounded like an idiot to the person on the phone because I kept saying shit like "I can't believe you actually called me, I always hear about these but I don't know anyone who's ever actually taken one," and I thought it was so cool. This was in 2014, so quite a while ago, so my memory of the questions is vague.

Yes! I wish more men felt comfortable wearing jewelry. I like the addition of jewelry to any body!

grasshopper_mouse , 13 days ago to Ask Lemmy in Do you have any smell you like/dislike even though most people don't?

I actually can't stand tea, like TEA tea, but I do like herbal teas. I like the idea of using the lapsang souchong as potpourri, though! I'll try that.

grasshopper_mouse , 14 days ago to Ask Lemmy in Do you have any smell you like/dislike even though most people don't?

I love the smell of wood burning/camp fire smell. There's something I find comforting about it. I've yet to find a candle that exactly replicates the smell, but if I ever do, I'm buying 50.

grasshopper_mouse , 17 days ago to Ask Lemmy in Writers of Lemmy, how do you do outining?

This is gonna sound outdated as hell, but I handwrite one major plot point or scenes on an index card and then put them in the order I want the outline to proceed in. I change the order of the cards if I feel like it or if a scene went some different direction than I originally intended while I was writing it. I only do this while writing fiction.
