Let’s not forget that one of the primary powers IT uses against adults is the ability to make them disregard what’s happened so word of the killings/disappearances doesn’t travel beyond local news before being forgotten entirely. So IT can keep returning to the same town to feast on the next generation of children.
Shared an Air BnB with 5 other friends and the only bathroom had this. Had to work out a system where the others would sit on the patio if someone needed to go to give them privacy.
(College Dropout) A few more years of extreme stress is infinitely better than a slow burn stress that gets worse as you get older. Also, based on the work ethic you seem to have, going to school is probably never going to be easier for you than it is now. You may work a trade for a few years and decide you want to go back and finish your degree, but then you’ll be a few years older and lacking the energy required to juggle a job AND school – just like you are now. Power through it, get it done, then enjoy the better part of your twenties living more comfortably.
I only fly occasionally and have an upcoming flight with a 37-minute layover in Charlotte that makes me nervous as hell since my shortest ever has been an hour.
Once you get through security get your bags and your shoes and take them off to the side! I hate seeing the line being held up by somebody trying to shove their liquids back in their bag/ lace up their shoes as soon as they exit the body scan.
Always show up the next day. How hard we party on a weeknight is a personal choice, so when your boss/ coworkers see you choosing to go a little too hard the night before while still making it into work the next day shows more about your integrity and dependability than most work-related tasks ever could.
People make fun of me for being visibly nervous in line for roller coasters. It’s not the height that terrifies me, it’s whether or not it’s going to make me puke all over myself and those sitting near me.
My face hurts from re-imagining the fake smile I had stretched over my face during a conversation with a fringe friend in line at the grocery store the other day.
I’ve noticed the spiders in our house eating other pests so I usually let them their thing unless they break the treaty and enter my sleeping, showering, or eating quarters. Then it’s death on sight.
23 with married friends – enjoy your singlehood while you’re young and have your shit together! I got my first adult job at 23 and I’ll always remember that year fondly because it was the first time in my life I was truly free. No classwork, no significant other, and nothing but a 9-5 job to stay coherent at and then I was free to do as I pleased. Make new friends, visit new cities, go to a music festival, whatever – just don’t concern yourself with being in a relationship because all your friends are.
I try to keep my distance as much as possible but it’s easier to just vag up and play nice because I share all the same social circles with this person.
I know a few couples who moved to Denver and the girlfriends/ wives are always posting #welivewhereyouvacation and other obnoxious tags, whereas the boyfriends/husbands all say they like CO but feel pressured to go out and do nature stuff every weekend to make up for the expensive cost of living.

Teeing up next week’s installment at the end there. Can’t wait.
Came here to say this…over 300 settlers of the Derry Township disappeared during his first noted period of awakening. Shit’s scary.
Each of these happened to me, in the order listed. Gonna go mull over an existential crisis now.

I like Bill Murray because he’s so humbly full of himself.
Where you gonna put a tree that big?

Water for that friend who’s crashing on your couch after getting too drunk at the bars.

My martini phase ended when I tried to sink the last half of my gin ‘tini in one gulp and puked into my hands at the bar of a really nice restaurant.
