I'm in Canada and my issue is every machine wants you to tap somewhere different. They all have a label somewhere indicating where to tap, but sometimes it's on a screen, sometimes a sticker somewhere, sometimes a handwritten note next to the machine... and there are so many other signs and stickers all over the place that I often don't spot the right one right away, so it takes me a couple of tries. Other than that it's very easy.

But the cashiers always look at you judgingly like "why don't you know how to do this basic thing?? It has the little logo RIGHT THERE beside these other 6 flashier logos." Or at least in mind that what they're thinking lol

So cleanly done! I can never get them looking that neat. It's a beautiful color too!

This list is A+. I just want to add one item: grey or colored sweatpants with a tight but not too tight t-shirt.

I regret not ending some relationships sooner, but I don't regret the body count. I learned something about myself each time. I'm here now because of my choices before. And yeah maybe I didn't make the best choices when I was younger, but that's just a universal truth.

Don't try to do it all, and if you do, know that you're not a failure just because you can't be good at everything. There aren't enough hours in the day to be fit and healthy, a good mother and partner, excel in your career, have a clean home, and have a thriving social life. Everyone that tells you you can have all those things either has staff helping them achieving each of those goals or is selling you a lie.

Celebrate your wins.

Yep, threatened to commit suicide and everything. When I started dating again he found my new SO's social media and said if he kept dating me he would fight him. Thankfully the new SO was a reasonable person and just answered "I don't want to fight you so I'm just going to call the cops."

And she thinks it's endearing when the main character touches her face to wipe it away, despite not knowing him, or inviting him to touch her. She has no boundaries.

The number of times my butt was grabbed, spanked, etc. by complete strangers any time I was out alone. And I don't even mean as a teenager. I fully remember this happening when I was walking home from school in grade 1. It just seemed so normal even then. The adults know what they're doing, and they're just being playful, right?

Very true. One of my pet peeves is reading about female characters who, unlike other women, don't wear makeup and spend all their time doing nerdy hobbies only and never do anything at all to take care of their appearance because that's a waste of time... But their hair is always shiny and bouncy and they are fit and their skin is smoooooth and their boobs are perky (of course they are!) and, most importantly, they always fall for the main character for absolutely no good reason.

I loved it at the time too! But you're the first other person I've seen praise it.

I've gone back to replay it a couple of times and, yep, still love it. The story has its flaws but that's final fantasy for you.

Jim Carrey anytime he does comedy.
