    That being a nice, kind hearted person doesn't get you anywhere or anything, but hurt.

    You gave away your $40 off coupon to a stranger didn't you. They really know how to take advantage of you.

    I did. Can I go cry in the corner now?

    TIL...what "snuff" is. It was advertised at a gas station in the US. I looked it up...if anyone doesn't know it is finely ground tobacco for inhaled use.

    Before yesterday first thing that would have come to mind was snuff film.


    TIL...

    The past week I've learned that I'm not very good at judging if it's been 150 seconds since my last post.

    I don't mean to be the pessimist but unfortunately this is not necessarily true. I've sadly worked up courage to ask for things only to get shut down. :(

    Although I have learned to say "eff you, I didn't want it anyway". (and of course run home and sob uncontrollably) :'(

    Rejection kicks my a ss.

    It's okay to give a *kitten*. But to only things that really matter. Things that set your soul on fire. All that other nonsense can kiss my *kitten* :)

    TIL as a nod to Spielberg - who placed a kid wearing Yoda costume in his movie E.T. - George Lucas made E.T.'s race a part of the Galactic Senate in Phantom Menace.

    ***I knew ET was in the senate but didn't know this was the exact reason.

    TIL in Scotland, a group of students went to a modern arts gallery and left a pineapple in an empty exhibit to see if people would think it was art. When they returned four days later, not only was the pineapple was still there, it had been covered with a glass case.

    Too bad they didn't add a pen and a apple on that table before they put the case over it. ;)
