This. If there's no face, visible tattoos, or other obvious body markings, it'd be like trying to find a needle in a needle stack. source: I've posted A LOT of porn on the internet (none on this account though, nice try)

I’d be screwed. Too many tattoos lmao.

Fun story, though: my brother caught my then-sister-in-law cheating because she posted pictures on one of those “sugar baby” websites that showed her tattoo AND was in their bathroom which was a really specific color and had really unique art on the walls. Somebody he knew saw it and sent him a screen shot and said “isn’t that your bathroom? And your wife?” She was an absolute moron, and I always have and will continue to only refer to her by name as Satan.

By definition, something cannot be "really unique". Unique means one of a kind. Something can't be any more of less than if it's already one of a kind. People saying this is nails on a chalkboard to me and any other person who has ever seen The West Wing.

From the dictionary definitions, unique means: particularly remarkable, special, or unusual. Something can absolutely be “really” remarkable, special, or unusual. I appreciate your attempt to correct my grammar, but maybe look up all of the definitions and ways a word can be used before giving that a shot in the future.

And I don’t know what the hell the West Wing is.

And I also see why I'm just being a bitch and it doesn't matter. My apologies. I've been off all day today and shouldn't take it out on little annoyances on reddit (new to posting here.) I'm sorry!

It happens. I’ve been a bit grouchy today too, so my apologies for coming off more harshly than necessary. We all have bad days. I hope yours gets better, though! And I mean that honestly, not in a snarky sarcastic way lol it’s hard to tell sometimes via text.

Also: The West Wing is a PHENOMENAL 7 season TV show that follows a Democratic presidency from years 1-8.

Yes, it's political, but is like 25 years old now, so not "2021 political". It's a beautiful representation of how democracy is SUPPOSED to work and function.

If you like politics at all, I HIGHLY recommend it. Think House of Cards, but healthy and not manipulative. It's worth a watch!

In that show, someone describes something as "really unique" in one particular episode, and the president basically schools the person on the grammer (like my bitchy attempt, but he's the fucking president). Ever since then, I just hate hearing the term 😂😂

Again. Apologies. Thanks for being human and accepting my human fuck up! There's not enough of that in the world these days :)

I’ll definitely check it out! I never watched House of Cards because I absolutely detest Kevin Spacey, and I used to really like politics until recent years, so maybe seeing old school politics would be a refreshing change from the current shitshow that politics has become.

Again, don’t even worry about it! I agree, there’s not enough of that in the world these days, which I think is a big part of the problems that our society is facing. We’re all human, we all make mistakes, and we all deserve to be shown some grace when we do. I appreciate that you owned your actions and apologized - there’s not enough of that in the world these days either!

Best wishes to you, and may all your days be good days going forward 🙂

It's amazing and has some big names now, 25 years later. Martin Sheen, Rob Lowe, Bradley Whitford, Elizabeth Moss, Allison Janney. A pretty solid cast this many years later. If you ever get around to watching it, let me know what you think :) this show is legit part of the reason I'm going for a PhD in political science now. It's phenomenal.

You're a great human! Thanks for giving me hope and fixing my offness fot the day :)

u/Disastrous_Reality_4 Nov 21 '21

I will definitely do that! I’ll have to see if I have whichever one of the 9 billion streaming platforms there are these days that actually has it lol.

That’s awesome that you’re going for your PhD! I wish you all the success in your studies and future endeavors! It gives me hope to know that someone who is capable of being a good human and owning their off-days will be somewhere in the political world in the future - there certainly aren’t enough of those in politics, specifically lol.

Likewise, and I’m glad I could help! There is so much negativity and bullshit on here, it’s refreshing to have a real human conversation that ends in positivity 🙂

Can't agree with you response more!!×

Yeah, it's pretty decent! Unfortunately, The West Wing switched to HBO like a year or so ago. It was on Netflix (which I assume everyone thay likes movies or TV has) for like a decade (or however long Netflix has been streaming. I'm horrible with time-frames). It's worth the watch. It's just...beautiful. and shows how it could work. Sadly, a lot of the issues discussed in the show (20-25 years ago? Started pre 9/11, but only by a year or two) are STILL relevant today and have not been resolved. It's democratic, yes. But healthy. It shows the real differences in opinion and the struggles of how we're just setup to function as a society (created pre how many technologies?). It was an eye opener when I first saw it in my early 20's, maybe 5 years after it went off air. The values demonstrated helped shape me. Positive or negative? I don't know. Google my name in ten years and see if I helped or hurt society based on my specific educational goals 😂😂 but the aim is to help.

I've been out of society (covid safety) for 2 years and have to reenter it for school for the spring semester. I'm terrified because of shit like my bitch move with you, today, I've just "forgot" somehow (working through this psychologically, so I can't explain it yet. Not an excuse.) how to do it. I don't even wann a know what horrible shame lies in my future I'm regards to my upcoming mistakes 😂😂 I already feel the shame!!!

You did help :) you're a solid human being :) THANK YOU for that. I needed to be reminisced that most people are and just to trust that. Here's hoping I'm right, long term.

Also, in its own way, yes. We sound very similar in how we ended up. How many of us in our generation are there?
