My dad grew up in NYC and when he was a kid in the 50s a doctor saved his life by coming to their apartment in the middle of the night. My dad’s family were super poor and couldn’t pay the doctor, so I guess it really depends on the kindness of the doctor.

I 100% know people who never discussed their religion/culture before starting to date and then refused to address their obvious religious/cultural differences for way to long. I live in a major city in the US so we have tons of people from all sorts of backgrounds. Some people I know don’t want to bring up their religious/cultural beliefs until they know the person a bit better but by then they are in deep and don’t want to leave despite the glaring differences.

I did it with a feather, two eggs, and a barrel of molasses.

I jokingly accuse my partner of stealing my glasses when I lose them. I just put them down in random places and am then too blind to find them again. A few days ago I told my partner I lost my glasses and he blamed ME for stealing my own glasses!! How can I steal my own glasses??

It’s been a really long time since I read “The Three Musketeers” but I loved the way they described the duels. I also love the way sword duels from that time period are portrayed in movies. Fencing is also something I enjoy watching everytime the Olympics comes around.

The house I grew up in had two trees in the front yard. We would tie string (probably a thin nylon rope) between the trees and hang sheets/blankets on the string, creating a “fort”. All the neighborhood kids would hang out there in the summer and we had so much fun pretending it was a fort, spaceship, bus, etc.

I hope this is figurative but I’m scared it’s literal.

I used to think the same but I recently decided to embrace my curly hair and the way you use certain shampoos/conditioners can be different. I’ve had to read the instructions each time I try a new brand to make sure I don’t ruin my hair.
