I ask my parents to ground me when I have a lot of homework/studying to do


Posted Sunday February 5 2023, 11:03 am

I'm in tenth grade and happen to take school very seriously. Unfortunately, the same can't always be said for some of my friends and boyfriend. It seems like they're always nagging me to come hang out w/ them when they know I have a lot of studying and/or homework to do.

To get around this problem, I've started asking my parents to ground me whenever I have a lot of work to do and everyone insists on blowing up my phone. That way, I have an air-tight excuse for not being able to hang out. I usually owe them some favor afterwards, usually an extra chore or two, for enforcing these groundings, but I don't mind. It's worth the tradeoff, IMO.

My sister thinks I'm a total weirdo and dishonest for doing this. Persona...

Am I complicit


Posted Tuesday October 22 2019, 9:37 am

I work in a sex store and there’s an “arcade” in the back where people go to watch porn have sex. The other day I saw a man attempting to lead a woman who was clearly drugged out in there. I told him that they couldn’t enter because she couldn’t consent and they left. I was already beating myself up about not calling the cops then when about an hour later they came back in. Her nose was bleeding but not from drugs, it was bashed in and looked like she had either fallen or been punched. I tried to reason with her, asked her if she had anywhere to go or if I could call someone for her but she couldn’t understand me. I then tried to talk to the man, told him what he was doing was wrong, she can’t consent and if he has sex with he...

Getting too much attention.


Posted Monday July 8 2019, 12:19 pm

Hi there,

I asked a similar question about being mistreated at work and got some great advice. I did some thinking and came up with a different point of view and thought it would be a good idea to ask a question from that side. MY QUESTION IS, WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS AND ARE THE POSITIVES WORTH THE NEGATIVES? IS THERE SOMETHING I CAN DO TO HAVE MORE POSITIVES THAN NEGATIVES? ALSO, IS THIS A NEGATIVE THING THAT IS WEIRD, OR IS IT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS TO A LOT OF PEOPLE BUT I AM JUST NOTICING IT MORE BECAUSE I AM AWARE OF IT.

Here is some backstory
It seems like sometimes I feel hyper visible and overly scrutinized. Not just at work but in my personal life too It seems like no matter what there is alw...

Neighbor drama


Posted Tuesday June 25 2019, 4:45 pm

Hello,

I would really appreciate some input on the issues we are having with the neighbor behind us.

I will do my best to keep this brief.

One night, my partner heard a loud noise on our roof and went to investigate (on-going issues with wildlife). He went to look out our window and accidentally saw our neighbors across the way with their bathroom blinds open and in a state of undress.

He unfortunately happened to lock eyes with the male neighbor, who now has him branded as some kind of weirdo. Neighbor proceeded to waive his tablet around and now keeps it in their bathroom window as if threatening to record him.

A couple of points to note:

They insist...

Constipation Relief


Posted Wednesday February 13 2019, 6:07 pm

I've been dealing with this for about one month now. I'm suffering from severe constipation. I'm only pooping on the weekends. But, when I go, it is several times a day and usually a very large amount and it is very painful. I've never had these issues before. I'm 28/f.

Recently, however, my home life has become much more stressful. I'm a teacher. The kids are misbehaving more than I have ever seen any other class misbehave in five years. I think that the issue is more emotional than actually physical. On the weekends, I suppose I have more of an opportunity to relax and the muscles are less tense.

I am feeling so stuffy and full and bloated. I'm even having pregnancy dreams bc I assume that subconsciously, I...

Is weird people attracting a trait?


Posted Tuesday July 31 2018, 7:34 am

So my entire family has this thing where we can attract weird people. It sounds weird but trust me it's a thing. It's like they know we see weirdos a ton so they come over for looooong chats and ask for a ride. There is one person in the neighborhood that walks from Walmart to his house (the neighborhood is really close) on a daily basis and he will only ask our family for a ride. Ten cars could be on the road and he would only flag our family over. At concerts we will bump into strangers that seem to know us and have 2-4 year old children that can name Themselves. I'm wondering if this is a trait PR some kind of super power I'm a male and I am a bit shorter than average I wear darker colors and basketball shorts or windbrealers. I ...

gym anxiety


Posted Sunday July 22 2018, 11:17 am

I know that this sounds crazy. This "gym anxiety" isn't what you think. It's not as though I'm nervous to go because I think people are going to judge me or anything like that. I use to be a gym rat. I was there twice a day or once a day, but at least 2-3 hours. At this point, I was already diagnosed with an eating disorder and I was excessively thin.

Until one day, I had a really severe panic attack at the gym.

Recently, I started getting back into fitness. Not that crazy though. Not that intense. I started walking and eventually jogging for about an hour each day. I felt great. But, I live in Florida and it started to get super got outside as the summer months drew close, so I got a gym membership ...

I want to fly an airplane


Posted Friday June 16 2017, 9:56 pm

Hey.
Never thought I would ever have to ask a question. But just recently, my old man died. And we went through his safe and got his will. I went down the list with my family. All though we aren't going to do anything yet. I found out what I was getting.
Before I was even born, my grandpa owned a plane. A Cessna 177 cardinal. Now the thing is I heard about this legendary plane. And my sister, my mother, everyone thought my dad sold this long back. But turns out he had put it in a hanger for all these years. It looks pretty good. It looks almost brand new. But I am not so sure whether it can run or not. I'm going to call a guy after me and my family deal with my father and everything.
My question is though for you peopl...

Not enough exhibits for an Artist CV Resume?


Posted Wednesday June 29 2016, 8:31 pm

I have some art galleries asking me to submit by sending in a CV artist resume but I've only been up at one store. I have a show in July. That'll make 2. I didn't go to visual art school; I went to theatrical art school, so I feel like I don't have enough material to make a resume. Any artists been in a similar situation with suggestions? Thank you.

How do I achieve this painting technique?


Posted Sunday June 26 2016, 11:25 pm

This is some work by Harry Ally. I'm wondering if anyone has any YouTube video tutorial links on how to achieve this rustic technique. It's reminiscent of an old Italian villa. Not the form. Just the background. That layered, scraped away, rusty look. Also, can I do it worth acrylic? Thank you.

Why are prank channels popular?


Posted Saturday April 9 2016, 3:16 pm

It seems that a majority of pranks are scripted. And pretty much all the pranks are illegal. For example, a lot of prank youtubers either:
- sexually harass people
- call people racial slurs, or do something racist
- mimmick terrorists (see: sam pepper)
- just flat out harass people.

I've even seen bomb scares! One done to a refugee child was especially disgusting. How does anyone like these channels?

The Lost, Bored, and the Searching of Calendar Capturers!! (I know I write


Posted Sunday March 13 2016, 1:03 am

Ohkay... Got a major problem. I have way too much attention and it has ruined my life up to the present in terms of ALL of my most important affairs!!! There are people, who occupy themselves with life's data, and misuse it in ALL the easiest systems of easy acceptances. It actually equates to "stalking & hostile harassment". However, mostly going "uncaught", I am under full assaults. I've preservered, to retain itemized assets of value,but I keep finding my self in lousy communities where I can not use my talents and skills. Additionally, I can't keep undesired "stragglers" out of my affairs.. It's been almost a decade, and for every bad, I have to supply a good. I'm exhausted, fatigued and unsupported. Ye...

ear gaging after having pierced ears for a while


Posted Monday February 1 2016, 4:36 pm

I've had my ears pierced since I was a baby but most recently (I'm 23) ,
I've wanted to started gaging.
I got tapers and did my research and now I'm at a 12G: but I'm having a couple concerns or rather I just wanted to ask some questions and get advice from experienced people .

That being said, please only answer this question if you are either a professional or someone with personal experience. Thank you!

I already have small ears and small ear lobes to begin with, but someone said it may be a good idea to take these out, let them close up, and get my ear pierced higher to avoid ripping. I only want to go up to a 2G, but honestly, I'm wondering what the best thing to do is.

Read, write and remember dream


Posted Friday January 22 2016, 9:13 pm

I just had dreamt recently, 10 minutes ago. Itvwas so strange that I was able to read and write something. It was a name. The scenario was like this. I happened to walk into a steet in the town where there were people being so busy. So I went to fish something from the commotion. There was someone who was found dead. Then everyone rushed into the bus and so then I went. Someone noticed that the dead body was left in the house so someone asked me to go back and see if the body was there. I went back home. I was walking when I was directed into another dimension where I was in a boat in the midst of the ocean. A girl was drowning and I immediately saved her. But before I dragged her almost close to my small boat, the dead guy approached us an...
