general What was the last vacation you went on?
Envy replied to DivineDefender1000's topic in General Discussion
Depends on what you consider a vacation. In the early Spring when my parents came up to see me, we went to the neighboring state Rhode Island - a bit further than I've been into the state. We went to the Newport area, but didn't really get to look at Newport itself much, we mostly hung out at the nearby beaches, but you can see some houses if you zoom in to the first photo. Newport has such cute houses! We had lots of fun at the beaches! Found lots of shells! Last autumn, my dad and I went up to northern New England, mainly New Hampshire and Maine. It felt more vacationy because it was a little further away, and we stayed a couple of nights. Of course, that trip was amazing. Since a young age I've always wanted to live in Maine! While I ended up moving to a more southern New England state, Maine will always have a piece of my heart! -
I agree wholeheartedly with this and I personally hope that feature isn't a part of the upcoming sequel.

I had a dream where my parents had adopted a baby and I had a new little sister. Now obviously at their age that absolutely isn't ever going to happen. So I see this dream as more baby fever nonsense from my brain.

I was raised calling it pop. But now I live in a different region of the country so I'm adapting and calling it soda. But the thing is that I don't even use the term that much. I don't drink soda and haven't for nearly a decade now.

Have you ever heard a false rumour about yourself?
Envy replied to Reecejackox's topic in General Discussion
At my former workplace, which was typically more mature (I'd have expected rumors when I worked at retail, that place was like middle school, but at this job? No.), a rumor must have been spread there for a while. A rumor that is incredibly embarrassing as a woman. It happened to my sister, too (outside of this workplace, of course). The rumor is that I was pregnant. I know that physically I look like a potato, but... Come on. I was very, very single. The person who conveyed it to me wasn't someone I talked to, though, so it's possible that wasn't widely known. If it was, well that rumor was probably even worse than I thought, as this was an Evangelical workplace and that (sex and pregnancy outside of marriage) would have been very scandalous. But as far as I know it dropped after I said no. I said that I would love to be a mother someday, but that no that wasn't the case. Usually I keep to myself so I like to think that people don't pay attention to me and don't make rumors, but that's not true. People are very nosy, especially in the south where I used to live. They even commented on the food I ate. People I had never talked to would come up and know me by what I ate for lunch. Jesus Christ. WHO CARES?! -
I live in the beautiful state of Connecticut! =D We are a tiny state. Things are somehow both pretty densely packed, but also there's plenty of nature. We have beaches, some sandy, some rocky. We have hills and mountains. There is so much variety of landscapes packed into this tiny little state. There's lots of historical buildings and houses around. Just even going to the store, you'll run into houses that are marked as historical! It's so cool! We have four seasons. Summer tends to be a mixed bag. This year it's been crazy hot a lot of the time, but then right now at 5 pm, it's in the 60s and breezy. It's gorgeous! The weather is less prone to natural disasters than other areas. They can still happen, but, like, I don't know that I've experienced a single Severe Thunderstorm this year. That's amazing. We're in between Boston and NYC, there's so much here! We have great pizza, especially in New Haven! People here generally mind their business - Both personally and politically. It's so nice, seeing as I came from a state that was the opposite - random strangers being too friendly and very controlling politics. Unfortunately small talk still exists here, but it's far better than the south, that's one thing for sure. I didn't always live in the Northeast, but I truly do feel as if I was always meant to live here. It's a weird thing to say, since I don't believe in fate. But it really is like I was misplaced in the south. The culture and climate is just a much better fit for me here.

I'm fifteen hundred miles away, so that would be kinda difficult.

Your math isn't mathing. Three years have passed since I made that post. Silly boy. EDIT: Turns out I was wrong, too. It's been four years, not three.

Yes, I can name them all. When researching on which state to move to, I got accustomed to all of them and where they are located (even though 90% of them were automatically off the table for me), so I can name all of them easily: Connecticut Massachusetts Rhode Island Maine Vermont New Hampshire New York New Jersey Delaware Maryland California Washington Oregon Idaho Hawaii Alaska Montana Wyoming Utah Colorado Nevada Arizona New Mexico North Dakota South Dakota Nebraska Kansas Oklahoma Texas Louisiana Arkansas Missouri Iowa Minnesota Wisconsin Illinois Kentucky Tennessee Mississippi Georgia Indiana Michigan Ohio Pennsylvania West Virginia Virginia North Carolina South Carolina Florida Alabama If I doubled any of those and didn't end up getting them all, god help me. I can pass a quiz on this easily. lol

What version of yourself do you cringe at the most?
Envy replied to Never Returning's topic in General Discussion
High school me, and also me a few years ago when I thought a crush of mine and I were closer than we actually were. OMG. -
Top choice is definitely Canada. Good government (for the time being, at least.), the best climate for me, and it would be less of a culture shock than pretty much anywhere else. I don't much like change, you know? Although given the chance to move to Canada I would take it in a heartbeat. Preferably somewhere in Quebec, New Brunswick or Nova Scotia since they're in a similar region of North America to where I already live. I've had to give a lot of thought to this, much like I previously did when moving states in the USA, so I have a general idea of what countries in the world I could live in versus those I couldn't. The only other countries I could see myself ever living in (with some of these being a culture shock, for sure) are Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, France, Germany or Ireland.

What would you do for your special someone?
Envy replied to Lunar Echo's topic in General Discussion
If they wanted to, we could go to my favorite pizza place in New Haven and/or we could go to the beach. If they weren't into any of that, that'd be fine. I mean, me liking the beach is very uncharacteristic for me, lets be honest, but it it just turned out that way. Gosh darnit, now I'm craving pizza. It's been sooooo long. Please, let that special someone come soon so I can have pizza.- 56 replies

I have AT&T (I almost automatically typed ADHD, oops. That's true, too, though. >.<). It's what my parents have, and they pay for my line as a part of their plan. It's awkward, because I was recently exchanging phone numbers with someone and when I called them so they got my number it showed up as someone calling from "Tulsa, OK". I'm like NOOOOO I don't live in that miserable area anymore! Nevertheless, don't know if I'll ever change my number. I don't know that it's necessary. But when I see that come up on someone's screen, it makes me feel like it's more necessary than I was previously thinking. I'm fine with AT&T (not even joking, I almost typed ADHD again). For years, though, we had limited internet usage and it was awful. If I ran even one video on the internet, it'd flag us for "75% of usage" for the month. But we changed that a few years ago or so. It's night and day.

I had a doctor's appointment, and then I went to the store. The rest of the day I relaxed.

Does it bother you when someone spells your name incorrecty
Envy replied to applebaby's topic in General Discussion
Aw, come on, it was just a mistake. I meant it has my name in it. lol. Hm. Wonder what your name is. Hopefully I'd get it right! -
I have a shower and bathtub combo. I've had that in every place I have ever lived, so it's the norm to me. Let me think of how to describe the way the shower in my apartment works, because it's kinda weird. I can do it automatically because I've done it so many times now, but it's still strange. I do know that the knob is turned counter clockwise to be turned on, but in its default off position, the knob is not facing a straight direction like you'd think. It's like facing at 4 on a clock. Typically getting it to where it is facing straight down (6 with the same analogy) is where I like it temperature-wise. You then have to turn it clockwise all of the way back to its weird default position to turn it off. Funniest thing, though, is that when I was going to a local pool for aquatic therapy earlier this year, the showers in the locker room had the exact same kinda shower. It was nice for me to not have to figure it out! lol. I wonder if it's a local brand or something.

Well, here's the thing: Neither. I don't want to live in the country. Absolutely not. It's typically very nosy, right wing and religious, which are all things I have moved to escape from. I also wouldn't feel safe (around the people there included), it's pretty much wild nature there. Much higher chance of running into dangerous wild animals. Also you're far away from stores and hospitals and the like. I have a multitude of health issues, I would not do well out there. I also don't want to live in a big city. I don't know exactly what to say, but any time I go into a city, I feel unnerved. I don't like the noise, I don't like the tall buildings, I don't like how many people are around. I don't like high density. I feel most comfortable in suburbs. That's where I was born and raised and I now live in a suburban "city" again in my new state. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Whats your favourite discontinued food/drink?
Envy replied to Reecejackox's topic in General Discussion
I have lost many sparkling water drinks since I got into them almost a decade ago. : Dasani Sparkling Ugly (weird name, but they had the best Cherry Cola kind and they also had a Fruit Punch flavor) Good & Gather (Cherry Cola and a Dr Pepper flavored one that were very good. I cannot understand why they got rid of these flavors. Good & Gather is an established Target brand that still exists, just not these flavors. ) Food-wise, IDK. I would say Fruity Cheerios, but a year ago they reappeared! Hm... Maybe Arby's Homestyle Fries. Very unique. Also, my local Sonic for some reason has these weird crinkle cut fries that don't taste very good. And yet in the stores there are a frozen variety of Sonic fries that are like the Sonic fries I used to know back before I moved, I don't know what's going on with that? I didn't know that Sonic had localized differences. -
Do you let others hear you when you go to the bathroom?
Envy replied to Splashee's topic in General Discussion
This is soooo funny to read because I've changed so much since then. My next job I didn't have the whole single-use bathroom crutch to rely on and had to go to the multi-stall bathroom with others like a normal person and now it's just something I do. And I really don't care too much anymore. Still a little shy about it, in fact if I go in with someone else I struggle, but if I'm around strangers I don't care. This is ridiculous, I wish I could get over this. It's so embarrassing to go in with a friend and then have to tell her to wait outside for me because I'm too shy. >.< Otherwise, the gossiping. It's a thing. I'm afraid to say I joined in it a little at my last job, but not really in the same way that it happened before. It was mainly just shaming any lady that didn't wash her hands. Seriously, JUST WASH YOUR HANDS! -
Does it bother you when someone spells your name incorrecty
Envy replied to applebaby's topic in General Discussion
Last post was about my nickname that I went by for a long time. My real name is spelled pretty simply, but there is one apparently common alternate spelling of it and also it rhymes with another name and can easily be misheard. I generally don't care if people misspell it or mishear it, the only problem is when it leads to issues, like when I was applying to get my ID renewed and I gave them my email (which has my email in it) and I never received confirmation or a reminder for the appointment because they got my name in my email address wrong. -
mega thread How is or was your experience in high school?
Envy replied to Gamer98's topic in General Discussion
Well, it was now a loonggg time ago. People from the year I graduated will be eligible to vote soon. Anyway, high school for me was, well, not my best time. Socially, I learned that I was "annoying", lost a lot of friends, and any friends I had at any given time I couldn't trust, because I had no idea where the boundary between what about me was annoying versus what was sociably acceptable. I also couldn't read people very well. All of that is still true today, but at least it isn't new to me anymore. Back then it was, and it hurt a lot. Academically I was very mediocre. There wasn't really any threat of me not successfully graduating, but I struggled with some classes, especially math. Best memories of high school were in marching band. My high school's marching band was nationally competitive, so it was a very big deal. But even though smaller schools thought us snobby I'm sure, I didn't ever get the feeling that we thought too highly of ourselves when I was in it. It may be different now, as lets just say they're a lot more used to success now then we were back in my time. Anyway, I had a great time and made friends, one of which is still very close to me to this day. -

I've actually now flown a couple of times in the past few years, so here's an update on top of those: The one in Denver, CO, one in Chicago, IL and Bradley Airport in Windsor Locks, CT. I think the one in Chicago was called midway or something. It was relatively small. There were like five different terminals in one small sized room. The restrooms had big lines. Even my dad had to wait in a line for the men's! Denver's is nice and big. BDL is in between. Not much to say about it.

It's been hot and humid as hell. Even early yesterday morning it was miserable. This summer has certainly been worse than last summer.
