But how about that feeling when you smell something and it randomly reminds you so vividly of a place or time in your life. Apparently smell is the strongest memory trigger.

I partly disagree because yeah some people treat their things like shit. But I treat my things well (hell, I still have my iPad 4 from 2013 and it barely has any scratches), but I'm on my second Apple charger. The first one I gripped by the hard plastic part because I didn't want the situation in the post to happen. It still broke, the connector part just came loose from the plastic socket. Such a thing has never ever happened with my micro USB or USB-C cables for my Kindle or phone. It is not hard to notice that these are usually made thicker whereas Apple cables usually have a thin and flimsy feel.
Recently, when I started seeing little cracks on the new cable as well, I decided to be a little smarter and I bought a heat shrink tube and reinforced the most sensitive part with it. I think it helped a lot, I've had no problems with it since then, but how long it lasts remains to be seen.

Dogs aren't easier companions, not really. They are as different in personalities as cats are, some are friendly, some are shy, some like people while others want to be left alone. Of course, the "cats are assholes" argument is often used by people who haven't ever been near a cat. Kind of like "dogs are stupid and super easy to bond with" is often used by people who haven't ever been near a dog. Bonding with a dog isn't always easy, if a dog has been abused or neglected in the past, it is obviously hard to gain its trust. But for some reason, there are some cat people who act like bonding with a cat is such a strenuous effort and they are sooooo special and righteous for having a cat that doesn't hate them. I won't ever understand this "cats vs dogs" thing. Why can't people just let others enjoy the company of different creatures?

I know, I just didn't know this was so specific, that it only happens when you stand up. I also experienced confusion one time when I went skiing and took a ski lift up a mountain. I couldn't speak properly, I was just blabbering about. It was infuriating to me but probably amusing for my parents.

Not really. There are a billion and one different reasons why a person might not like cats (or dogs, for that matter, or any other animal, person or thing) and summing it up into "you don't like cats = you're a control freak" is too broad a brush to extract a coherent point out of.
I don't have time to explain it in detail right now but I'd also like to point out that the parts "cats are too human" (isn't having many cats usually equated with not liking the company of people?) and "cats are individualistic personalities" (implying every other animal species is not) are in my opinion simply wrong.

I wonder what does one have to do to earn the nickname onion girl. Does she eat a lot of onions? Smell like them? Own an onion farm? Write for The Onion? We'll never know.

Oooh, I have that. Sometimes I even go blind for a few seconds, what the heck. I thought it was just due to low blood pressure.

Ah yes, if only it was a real place.
Anyway you don't have to pay loads of money to even go there. If you read the first couple of pages of Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, you'll feel like you've lived in that cathedral your whole life. The level of detail and vividness in his description of the place is astounding.

oooh okay. I never had any consoles so I can't compare. The PC versions are great imo. Maybe it's the nostalgia speaking but I liked them a lot. I loved their style since the first two games came out before the movies and didn't have them as a point of reference so they made their own style. It was very quaint.

Reminds me of that tweet... "Imagine thinking you're tougher than the fucking Sun"
Also that lady should get a new husband. How in the hell can a meal be too girly? It's food, you need it to survive, it doesn't have gender roles.

I'm fine with sex dolls, really. If someone would actually get a doll because it's "easier than a relationship", it means that person doesn't really value relationships with other people. That person doesn't care about the companionship, the time spent together, the interaction. They just care about sex. By getting a sex doll, these people will not only remove themselves from the gene pool, they will also prevent the emotional harm done to a potential partner of theirs who would sooner or later realize this fact.

I'd rather have a movie about the Dyatlov Pass incident. That stuff is creepy as hell.
There is a video game that's loosely based off of it, it's called Kholat. But the creators took artistic licence for a lot of things and there's very little factual information presented in the game.

@celticrose I know what the story is about, just wasn't sure whether that was what the post was referring to. And yes I am absolutely in favor of letting the family go to another country for care. I was just saying that if the care in the UK is this bad, then push for change. But many people (conservatives) don't want to have a good healthcare system because "BUT SOCIALISM! AND VENEZUELA!!!"

Or, you know. If the healthcare in Italy is of a higher quality than whichever country the original tweet is from (I'm guessing Murica), that means that system is superior. In other words, improved.
As far as I know, Italy has a mixed public-private system and it's regarded as one of the best in the world. You wanna decide to go for something worse, just because you have the power to decide? Be my guest, I'm not the one who's then gonna a cry next to a baby sized coffin.

That reaction in itself is a sign of ulterior motives, you probably dodged a bullet
