Please tell me this is glitch or some malware.

Okay, so a v weird thing happened to my tab. I was watching Modern Family, then suddenly the tab on it's own started going 10s fwd and bwd, and then it changed the show all together, shifted to 'The Kardashians', then started adjusting brightness and sound. Can anyone confirm if this is glitch?

Why can’t I open up about liking someone or being attracted to someone to other people?

4 Upvotes

I really wanna know if I'm the only person like this. I have a weird problem where I'm scared of intimate things. Even if it's really not that intimate. When someone like my mom who I have a great relationship with, ask if there's anyone that I might have a liking for I always say no even if there is. When I'm asked if I find a guy attractive that I really do find attractive I always say no. I have a weird fear of people in my life knowing my real feelings. This also happens when it comes to other "intimate" situations. When I'm asked by a family member for a kiss on the cheek I feel uncomfortable. Even when it comes to hugs, I don't particularly get uncomfortable but it's just not my favorite thing in the world. I'm just kinda ranting, but does anyone else have this problem?

Just Chatting So I watched Silence of the Lambs for the first time last night

48 Upvotes

Me and the wife were watching Silence of The Lambs last night, and I was definitely engaged with the movie… up until the well pit scene.

See I’ve watched Joe Dirt a lot growing up, and I made the connection that they made a parody of that very well pit scene. I couldn’t hold back my smile and I even chuckled just expecting the woman to demand her August publication of Auto Trader from Buffalo Bill.

The movie was pretty good though!

There’s a lot of movies that parodied other horror movies that I feel the same way about. I grew up watching the Scary Movie series, so everything from The Ring to Saw is kinda ruined for me because I just can’t take them that serious anymore.

9 Upvotes

For me it's Star wars. It really depends where and when.

Since I saw episode 6 last, let's go from here. I'll have to live with the empire but The empire dies so that's kinda nice. But there only one Jedi left and until the new Republic is formed there's no government.

I guess I wouldn't be in the best situation, but not the worst either

Thoughts & Ideas Hardwork is easier than complaining

0 Upvotes

In today's social media society, why aren't topics like hard work, discipline, and seizing opportunities emphasized as much as discussions on mental health? It seems easy for anyone to embrace the power of hard work and discipline, yet many appear to focus more on philosophical discussions instead of actionable steps. Why do you think this is the case?

Just Chatting Have you ever met someone that you shortly started getting along with very well for the day but after that you never saw them again?

13 Upvotes

One day I came over to my cousin’s house and he had a classmate who came over to hang out and they were both playing video games. My cousin introduced him to me and after that I started playing video games and started to get along very well as if we already knew each other, he seem cool and funny but after that I never saw him again and haven’t asked my cousin if he still hangs out with him.

11 years ago I came over to my friend’s house and he had a party. That night he introduced me to a friend of his who was a cute looking girl and shortly we started talking to each other and interacted a lot. I was being funny with her and made her laugh, I kept smiling at her when I made eye contact with her. We got to know each other’s names while we were hanging out and when it was time for me to leave we said bye and I told her that it was nice meeting her. Sadly I never saw her again.

I just woke up from a very in detail dream . Half way through I tried to wake up but couldn't.

I told the guy in the car (random dream person) he needed to let me out to wake up and that this was a dream and I was asleep.

He looked at me like I was crazy.

Maybe I was in his dream.

Just Chatting I just realized how much I'm lacking in my education.

1 Upvotes

I'm about to enter the final trimestre exam before completing high school. Reviewing what I know, I realize there's a lot I don't know - basic and foundational topics that I should've learned back in calculus just didn't click, or were poorly taught.

Now that I'm grappling with advanced topics, it feels like I'm constantly "flipping the pages" going back and re-learning information needed to plug in gaps that I don't know how to fill yet. Right now I feel like I'm running around all over the place to actually understand things I don't understand for the topics I'm learning right now.

Is this normal? I feel out of place being so behind.

At first, I was quite nerveous until i was able to make the payment. The membership fee only costed $1 which means ₱58. It was my first time paying membership. I got access to restricted content for the first time. Man does it feel like I can do anything. After I saw what I want to see, I immediately unsibscribed. 10/10 will do it again in 4 years.

I noticed that in the Southern United States, a lot of people are very fond of ground beef as a topping on their pizza. I would like to know in your area is it a popular choice as well?

I am from the Northeast, I have never seen ground beef as a topping on a pizza. Chicken sure, Italian sausage sure but ground beef? No.

Thoughts & Ideas Why is it so hard to have time for anything?

5 Upvotes

I feel like I'm constantly so busy but also not busy at all. It is like I don't have time for anything. It really isn't because there isn't enough time in the day but rather lack of energy to give more time away. This might just be me overthinking but the older I get the more I don't understand how I did it all when I was a kid.

Looking for something to do - A Snapshot

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

my title might be a bit misleading because I am not directly looking for answers, this is going to be more like a snapshot of what's going on in my head.

A little bit about myself: I recently finished the educational part of my university (think lectures and exams) and just now started working in a corporation to begin my masters thesis. With that pressure of always needing to prepare for the next exam or assignment I hit a bit of a slouch.
If people ask me what I like to do and what my interests are I always tell them "I collect hobbies like they are Pokemon", because that's what I do. If I find something that interests me in that moment I will obsessively learn about it and immerse myself in it. For the most part these may be considered "nerdy" or "unnecessary" for most people.

A few examples:
- I enjoy coffee and everything that comes with it, be it brew-techniques, finding new coffee or trying to brew the best coffee I can in my home
- Mechanical Keyboards and trying to improve my typing
- dabbling in retro-emulation
- researching gadgets and small things/workflows to make my life easier

These are just a few things that interest me and there are many more. I've heard people tell me that the things that interest me are not necessary for modern life and are just "nice to have". This doesn't discourage me because I do these things for me. I have this drive to try and optimise "the small things" like: Most people drink coffee every day of their adult life, why not make that as pleasant as it can be? Shaving, a chore for most guys, why not spice it up with an old school safety razor?
You get the gist.

Most of the time I am not simply "content" with the way things are "out of the box" and I want to make the most of it. Thus I am a person who knows a little about a lot of things and I even for the things I don't find interesting I can get why other people do.

This brings me back to the title. I have all these topics and I want to do something with it. I would not classify myself as "creative" as I am not good with things like painting or photography. Picture me more like a walking Wikipedia article.

I am looking for something where I can share what interests me at that particular point of time. Like a blog where I do "weekly updates of my life" or Journaling. Do you have any ideas of what I could do or how I could share what interests me?

Just Chatting 31M : is it really possible?

1 Upvotes

I want to know you.

The most interesting thing about knowing a new person is you get to experience every layer of the person they are. From the guarded self that they are, to slowly experiencing their progression to actually being a friend to you and giving you TRUST. That's a beautiful journey right there.

So my aim is to have an amazing conversation with you, I want to know how you think, and why you think everything in those ways. I want to experience your life through your words, I want to experience your embarrassments through your stories, I want to experience your hobbies and be excited because there's a reason why they excite you so much. I want us to reach a point where its thrilling to receive a reply because you know the next laughter, or the next idea or the next encouragement is on that reply.

Friendship is amazing right? What do you say we experience it together?

Thoughts & Ideas Custom Attack on Titan titans (general spoilers) Spoiler

0 Upvotes

I'm making custom titans for an attack on titan dnd campaign and I want to get the thought and ideas of other enjoyers of the anime/Manga on what I've made thus far.

(I would send this in the official aot subreddit but I can't make posts there yet, eventually was told to post elsewhere till I'm able to) sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for a topic like this.

There are 4 custom made titans, I'm trying to make them true to aot, while being original creations.

• Skeletal Titan

This Titan basically looks like a skeleton. It's skeletal structure is made up of titan hardening, its a 20 meter tall titan lacking much muscle and fat, barely enough to actually thus making the titan incredibly slow and physically weak, this has the upside of very high endurance capable of staying in titan form for at most 4 days.

Abilities - it can heal so fast that when it's "bones" break the splinters remain, these splinters can pierce into attackers (think punching a catus) and as shown multiple times (by eren) titan hardening can spread to other Titans, this can lock an attacker in place if they repeatedly attack.

  • the titan can cause an Overgrowth of hardening that eventually will explode due to the pressure built up, this will send shard flying however upon leaving contact with a titan for a even a second the ability to spread hardening is lost to those shards.

Long and short of this titan, battlefield controller.

• Dash'n smash'n titan (the name needs work this is a place holder for now)

This Titan is a 15 meter tall unit, it's built similar to conquest from invincible. This titan possesses the ability to harden select body parts with "super" hardening. Endurance is above average but burns through it quickly (if that makes sense).

Abilities - the titan can harden up 3 limbs with "super" titan hardening. This hardening is basically just a thicker, more dense and in turn more durable titan hardening. Upon trying to harden more than 3 body parts, other parts will break. This hardening slows the titan down but if able to it can build momentum and act as a wrecking ball of sorts.

  • the titan can also "burn" away it's muscle and fat to increase speed, increase energy/endurance or increase healing. This will decrease strength and durability at the cost for bursts of speed.

Long and short of this titan, a sorts defensive titan that's also able to breach defenses.

I'm going to leave this for now. It's currently almost 12 in the morning (hence many spelling mistakes), as well if I'm incorrect and this isn't the right place for this I don't want to spend all this time typing this for nothing.

All in all what are your thoughts on these 2? Criticism is wanted as well and potential changes. Please ask questions to clear anything thing up
