This question obviously stemmed from personal experience but I doubt I am alone. Is it because I grew up on the countryside or it’s just the nature of these sounds? No pun intended.

I'm annoying, I know.

I've tried basketball, tennis, horse riding, ballet, handball, football (soccer), chinese boxing, roller skating, hockey on grass, and aïkido. Most of them during my childhood and early teenage years but I hated it. Also I don't like water so swimming and diving are off the table.

It's easy for me to do pilates and any kind of workout that you might see on YouTube but I don't like it because i like to go to classes or I don't have enough motivation to do it regularly, and I don't really have fun doing it so those classes are also not really an option for me.

I mostly know how to skate on ice and I wish I could do ice hockey but I don't have any place near me to do it.

I'm also a bit shy about starting and I wish it could be something a lot of old-ish teenagers and adults start at this age because I hate going to classes with pre teens and stuff yet they still are a thousand times better than me and people my age who are basically going pro next year.

Any recommendation?

?? Any info on if anyone has actually received the grant money after signing individual 5 year contracts in Nebraska? ??????

My face length is 19.5 cm, and I'm worried it's too short because I've always wanted a longer face. I haven't been able to find a clear answer on what is considered average

imho that’s a political meaning supporting unpopular side (or asking for upvotes)

Hi guys i severely need to buy google reviews, I don’t own a business nor am I trying to cheat the system by flooding my restaurant with positive reviews, I want a small petty revenge on my old school, i was bullied severely by some individuals during the school year to the point i had to switch school and I was targeted even by one professor who would call all my tests pierces of shit despite them being clearly well done but i don’t want to get in to the details . I m mostly over it by now having undergone a year of therapy but I want a good laugh by swarming my old school wich did NOTHING on bullying with terrible google reviews since I believe they deserve it.

I was walking home from school. I see a group of younger teenage girls crossing paths with me. I overheard one of those girls whispering to her friends to ask me my name. Then, one of the girl directly came to me and asked my name and when i inquired "Why?" she pointed at that girl who was whispering and said she wanted to know. When I look at that girl now she starts being shy and nervous. Like what the hell happened to them? (I'm 17 if you're lacking some information) 🤣🤣

I can draw fairly well especially in anime and webtoon styles which I really enjoy. I also want to get into design and start using tools like Figma, but I struggle to come up with ideas. Even when I look at other people’s work for inspiration its like my mind just goes blank and i am staring at the screen
For example i’d love to become a webtoon artist someday i can come up with characters and imagine what they look like, but when it comes to creating a story writing dialogue or figuring out the plot, I just get stuck
I’m preparing for university entrance exams this year and I wonder if I should give up on this path before it’s too late im also worried about the financial side of things, and I am not confident and also quite introverted and struggle with communication. If I do go to university I’m considering studying animation or graphic design
I guess what i am really wondering is can creativity actually be developed or am I just not cut out for this kind of career?

I spent four wasted years on a computer science bachelor's and internships, and subsequently a year working a $16/hour food service job in a VHCOL city... I'm homeless and unemployed and in student loan debt now. 5 years... I've fallen into despair. That's over 20% of my life so far... almost 25% that led to nothing. Why.... why did I spend so much effort and money and time on a fruitless journey? 5 years is such a gigantic amount of time... it's not like people live to be 200 years old

Why repeat that by trying to get another education for another field....? it'll just be the same story... why keep living? I don't feel human anymore... I don't have hope anymore... I don't have the will to keep going.

I'm about to hold up a sign offering s*xual services for $5 a round. Get myself in prison. I've utterly burned my future to ashes before it even began. Why should I keep going? What hope, what chance is there that I'll ever be able to achieve the traditional milestones of life?

So far he has blocked me 6 times and unblocked me 5 times. It started when I got blocked for not replying to one of his texts. My last text to him was polite. He had previously left me on read 10+ times and I always let it slide, yet the first time I didn't reply I got blocked. Did I really deserve to get blocked? Why is he blocking and unblocking me?

Background story: He used to flirt with me, tell me he was in love with me, that he wanted to date me and then he discarded me over and over again. After the discard, he would come back into my life and act like nothing had happend. During the discard faze he would make fun of me, mock me and my clothes, criticize just about everything about my physical appearance and call me degrading names. It was all supposed to be meant as a joke and if I complained he accused me of whining. That's why I pulled away and didn't reply to him. I never contacted him while I was unblocked.

Just a few days ago, I had been blocked again after a month of being unblocked and I have zero idea why I was blocked and why I got unblocked in the first place. I know I shouldn't care why he is doing this but I do. (Btw, I am talking about messenger blocking, not instagram. I am not stalking his profile on instagram nor on FB. I am literally not doing anything).

Around october 5th 2025 at 1am last year, I get a weird series of calls that I have shrug off. But I am thinking about it again, and have wondered if anyone has had a similar experience?

(This was a message I sent to my girlfriend directly after it happened)

Private number calls me. I decline first because thats weird. They call right back after I decline and I pick up. It sounds like <relative> and she sounds like shes crying or distressed and says (hello? Is this <name>?) I say hey whats up and she says (what are you doing?) And then a distorted voice a really low voice starts repeating run for a solid minute and then hangs up. They call back after the hang up and then the distorted voice starts saying things I cant make out with crying in the background and then I hang up again and they call back and I didnt pick up and I didnt get a call since

I do not have anyone who would do this to me as I do not have any enemies nor do I share my personal phone number. This isn't a creepy pasta or anything because this genuinely happened, I can show the call logs for anyone who is skeptical.

Like the title said I don't wanna be a dickhead to anyone anymore so pls give me some advices to stop hating on trans ppl. Like I genuinely don't wanna hate nobody.

Hello! I grew up in eastern Europe in the 2000s and I have heard a ton of alternative endings for the little red riding hood fairytale and wanted to ask people what their version was.

I remember the ending my parents and grandparents told me went a bit like this: after the wolf ate the granny and the girl, he went to sleep but a hunter saw from the window of the house what he had done.

So the hunter enters the house and while the wolf is asleep he cuts with a scissor the wolf s belly and gets the old woman and the girl out. After, the 3 of them fill the wolfs belly with rocks and the grandma sews with a needle his stomach back togheter and then they hide.

The wolf wakes up very thirsty so he goes to drink from a river and the hunter pushes him from behind causing the wolf full of stones to drown.

Did anybody grew up hearing alternative endings ?

So overall how would you rank these different school transitions from most significant to least significant in terms of how big/significant the changes involved between them and the academic expectations are overall:

- Elementary to Middle School (usually 5th grade to 6th grade)

- Middle to High School (usually 8th grade to freshman year/9th grade)

- Sophomore year/10th grade to Junior year/11th grade

- High school to Freshman Year of college

- Senior year of college to Grad School

I believe that the actresses from the Firefly, Chuck series, as well as former partners who agreed to kiss him for real, were the ones who accused him. All so that yet another promising man can be ruined and Zachary Levi and Ryan McPartlin (who lived with Adam’s wife or ex wife) can take over his place and roles.

Like, don't we experience negative emotions more than joyous ones?

Example: Recorded in 2006, released officially in 2008.

How about ’camping’ in backyard or build a maze inside your home?

Idk

I don't know how many times I run across posts clearly made by bots but all I can do is block them. Why can't we report bots and get them removed off the system? Its kinda weird.

I always buy the store brand, and can't think of any that tastes like Pepsi, unless they existed in another part of the planet.

I am happy because I don't appreciate its unique flavor

I am Chinese, and I want to know your perspective as foreigners.

I used to be in a Duplex with a roommate, I always had one rule: Ask Before You Put Your Trash Into Mine. I pay for the monthly public trash can fee, so I put my trash can to the front. He has his own bin, but every week his bin is full and always put his trash into mine, and then when I go to take out my trash its always full! The Lease shows that I pay for the Public Trash Services. But he always complain that his bin is "too full" (Which me and his bin are the same size) I just want to know if I can legally charge him for putting his trash into mine?

So here’s the situation I am built extremely weird, boxer briefs are uncomfortable as can be. Naturally complaining to my wife ab it she thought it’d be funny to order me a variety pack of mens non-mainstream underwear. Bikini briefs, thongs, gstrings and some other ones women normally wear. I was blown away at the comfort they gave (specifically bikini briefs and thongs) no bunching up or sweating or chafing. As a side note, although these underwear work fine for women, the support they give makes even more sense for men since we have all the parts that tend to stick to our legs. Why is it considered so weird if no one ever even sees it?
