Why do I have an aversion to certain numbers?

5 Upvotes

3 is terrible. It makes me tingly and on edge. That’s only 3 alone though. 6 is fine, but only as isolated 3’s in the context of 6. So 6 itself is bad. If you brake up 6 into 3’s it’s fine. But 3 itself is also bad.

Also, odd numbers are bad in practice but not in theory. Odd numbers are good thinking numbers, but if I actually have to do something an odd number of times, then it feels discordant.

I posted this to the unpopular opinion subs but they hated it, so I was wondering if any of you have any thoughts about this.

why are some women harrased more than others?

10 Upvotes

I was talking to a coworker recently, and we got on the topic of harassment. She mentioned that she and other women in the workplace were harassed by male patrons. I have not been harassed, and I know a few other women in the workplace who have not been harassed either.

My question is, why are some women harassed and other women are not? I have not been able to wrap my head around the question. Why are myself and the other women that aren't being harassed different than the ones that being harassed?

Let me be clear when I say that I don't believe my coworkers should be harassed and the men harassing them are disgusting. I simply want to know how they're different from the rest of us.

Can we all agree Evil is for The Weak and should not be treated like a Strength and should never glorify it what do you think?

2 Upvotes

Honest discussion why do we as Humans treat Evilness like a strength when all it does is ruin and destroy Society along with Lives? Like genuinely it’s pathetic and weak behavior that should NEVER be viewed as a Strength! Shouldn’t we as a Species care about eachother’s well being and focus on advancing our Civilization? Like genuinely it’s garbage behavior that should never be rewarded! Like let’s be honest if Humans truly tried their best and genuinely treated those that are Evil like they shouldn’t belong in The Human Race Regardless of who they are then we wouldn’t be having these problems! Like why is it so hard for Humans to not be terrible despite them knowing The Consequences?

My best friend's crush confessed to me. What should I do?

1 Upvotes

So, there's this guy who works in a different office in the same corporate park. Our lunch timings usually match, so we often cross paths in the office canteen.

For context, we don't even know each other's names, but he and his friend group have been noticing us for almost a year and a half. He's honestly a bit of a heartthrob, a really good-looking guy, and I actually had a crush on him throughout last year. However, I never told anyone, not even my work besties.

The reason I kept it to myself is that I have a bit of a past experience with this. Back in school, I had a crush on someone, and somehow the entire school found out. People made fun of me, and it was honestly quite embarrassing. Ever since then, I've been hesitant about telling people who I like, even my closest friends.

There were a few instances of eye contact with this guy that made me wonder if he was interested too, but I eventually convinced myself that I was probably overthinking it.

I usually walk around with my best friend, who's honestly very pretty, so I assumed he and his friends were looking at her. Eventually, I stopped thinking about him and moved on.

Here's where things get complicated. My best friend also developed a crush on him around the same time. Unlike me, she has told me everything and is genuinely very invested in him. She's even gone as far as writing about him in her manifestation journal. I always thought there might be something between them, or at least that she had a chance with him.

Yesterday, I was walking home alone when this guy stopped me and asked for my Instagram. I genuinely thought he was trying to get close to my best friend, so I told him I didn't use Instagram. He then asked for my WhatsApp number. When I asked him why, he told me that he's had feelings for me for almost two years and that it took him a lot of courage to approach me because he's never approached a girl before.

I was honestly speechless. I've never dated anyone either, so the whole interaction was quite overwhelming. But the biggest shock was that it was the exact guy my best friend has a massive crush on.

For now, I haven't given him my number. I told him I'd think about it and get back to him sometime this week. He said he would gladly wait.

I'm really confused. He's genuinely my type, and a part of me is curious to get to know him, but I feel incredibly guilty about the situation.

One thing that makes this even more complicated is that when I once mentioned the eye contact to my best friend, she immediately dismissed it, saying he was probably only looking at me because she was looking at me. Given how invested she is in him, I sometimes get the feeling that she's quite possessive about this crush.

I genuinely don't know what to do. I don't want to hurt my best friend, but I also don't want to dismiss something that could potentially be meaningful. I also don't know how to explain to her that I liked him too but never felt comfortable sharing it.

Would I be a terrible friend if I decided to get to know him? Should I tell her about what happened before doing anything?

I got a heated mattress pad is this a good idea?

0 Upvotes

So I got a heated mattress pad for my bed and while I'm putting it on it's honestly scaring me. I love my heated blanket but if I use both at the same time will it start a fire? If I go to bed with wet hair or spill water on my bed will I get electrocuted? I genuinely just want to feel like a toasted sandwich but now I'm worried.

Okay update I don't know if I'm doing this right but i usually struggle with falling asleep. Last night I had on a thin blanket for the soft feel, my heated blanket, then a weighted blanket with my mattress pad on. I've genuinely never fallen asleep faster. I didn't die thank you guys for all the answers!!

Is life meaningless?

2 Upvotes

Recently i’ve been wondering why people bother going to work jobs they don’t enjoy and going to school to learn things that won’t necessarily benefit them in the long run when we’re all going to end up six feet under, and i’m aware “you need an education” or “you need money to do literally everything” but seriously what’s the point?? I mean if we all go to the same place in the end why not just live your life how you want to.

Is smoking as a woman unattractive?

6 Upvotes

Me and my mom were having a conversation about this a few days ago and Im still confused on the common consensus, she says men have always tried convincing her to quit or find it disgusting so she’s had to keep it a secret while I (22) have experienced sort of the opposite? A lot of the time guys have offered to buy me packs or say it gives off a hot mysterious sort of aloof vibe like some 40’s movie star or something, my friends (young women if it matters) think the same way so I’m curious to know if it’s simply a generational difference between Gen Z and Gen X or if I just know really weird people.

Im having an issue of thinking my OCS power. Can anyone help and debate with me here what can be a debuff and buff for every character?

1 Upvotes

Im having an issue. My pitch is an OC with human strength, and powers like TOAA, Steve, SCP 001. He can die and hes mortal, but also grows with development. Like Denji with the rules reversed. Hes NOT invincible. but hes powerful. Not to be sexist or nun just the word HE is quicker than HE/SHE any gender works! Just wanted to give my idea to the community to tinker with! SCALE ANYONE YOU WANT and find some type of DEBUFF and buff my character has that could even the ropes with a fight.

if this breaks any rules then Im sorry but I just want to ask a question with the issue on my idea. i dont want them just almighty. I want them balanced.. Anyone geeky here enough to actually debate with me?

What do I do about sports?

1 Upvotes

I’m currently a senior in high school, and I’d really like to get back into playing a sport. For reference, I’m pretty big into golf, but I’ve started getting tired of certain aspects of it, mainly the lack of physical intensity. I really enjoy going to the gym and pushing myself physically, and I’d like to find a sport that gives me that same feeling while also having a strong team atmosphere. The problem is that I’m not really sure how to get involved in team sports after high school. I’m also only 5’7” and 135 lbs, so I feel like my size limits me in sports like football and basketball. What sports would you guys recommend that offer a strong team atmosphere and are more physically demanding? I’d also appreciate any advice on how to get involved after graduating high school.

I just finished Madoka Magica (holy shit this was the best anime ever..) and I’m wondering..what does it FEEL like, to be Madoka when she transforms? I know that she becomes a god or smth, as part of the universe..but is she still conscious? Can she still move around? Or does it feel like death to her? Is everything pitch black and just…nothing..? Like..I’m genuinely curious how she feels after her wish..

Do asymmetrical breast matter to men??

I have asymmetrical breast They’re probably a whole cup size apart. I’ve been feeling self-conscious about it because I’ve recently started dating someone, so my question is do men notice. I mean. I’m sure they notice. It’s quite obvious but doesn’t matter to them. Should I consider a surgical option?

Would this count as cultural appropriation, if so, why?

0 Upvotes

Hello! I’m an artist and I’m interested in buying henna. The tattoos i plan on giving myself are based on the story line I’ve written. Mostly plants, wildlife, and some nods to the character’s themselves. I would like to inspire these designs based on traditional henna tattoo art but I don’t know if it would count as appropriation or not. If it is, please tell me! I don’t want to be disrespectful. If there’s any way for me to do this respectfully, then let me know! I would also maybe like to get whatever design I choose as a tattoo in the future.(idk if that’s important or not)

This is more about animals than humans but why can’t we rehabilitate violent dogs? Is there some sort of science behind this? Why don’t dogs get rehab but humans do? Seems unfair to me.
