To be able to hear the soundtrack. Like, if I walk into a building and hear the Psycho “reep reep!” I’ll get the hell out. But if I walk into that same building and hear “bow chicka bow wow”, I’m staying.

Tabletop Simulator. In 2020 my weekly gaming group couldn’t meet anymore, until we discovered that solution. We still meet in person occasionally but we have been playing every week online. I’m genuinely not sure how I would have gotten through the lockdowns without it.

“Don’t regret. Remember.” From the movie “Portrait of a Lady on Fire.” Changed how I think about a lot of the events in my past. The director said that fans have come up to her and shown her tattoos of that line, so it’s not just me.

“Three Men in a Boat” by Jerome K Jerome is hilarious.

That was my reaction too. I haven’t seen it myself but I heard it from a friend who works in food service.

I was in line to buy tickets to a concert. The tickets didn’t cost much, but I was poor, so as I was in line I was wavering back and forth between the cheapest tickets and the second cheapest. When I got to the front I was on the side of the cheapest.

Another person who bought the cheapest was an incredibly cute girl who I met there and ended up dating for several months, and that relationship, after it ended, gave me the confidence to make a move on another girl who I had long been attracted to, and our relationship made me choose the particular job that I chose because it let me move near where she lived.

So if I had been a couple of spaces further back in line, I probably wouldn’t have lived in that state for two years. True story.
