Pride, like most emotions or feelings, exists on a range. You can be proud of all of these things, including your achievements; it’s the degree to which you carry that pride that determines the “douchebaggery,” don’t you think?

The sports team, I would say, probably has the lowest “douchebaggery threshold,” as the spectator is so far removed from the team—especially for professional teams—whereas the others carry more involvement and/or stake for its community.

Although this wasn’t really what I was asking at the time, it’s good general advice, and I’ll try it out. Thanks for your time and input.

I’ve actually been off my meds for a minute. I haven’t had serious issues, but I definitely need to go refill…

I’ve absolutely done it before because I’m weird. Entering 1:90 (on my Kenmore microwave) ticks down 1:89… 1:88… etc. until it hits 1:00 at which point it will continue as normal to 0:59.

1:60 behaves similarly.

I have a feeling the “add 30 seconds” button will correct it to proper time format, but I’ll test it for science.

This is the way.

My high school had a pretty big exchange program (up until COVID) mainly from China, Vietnam, and Spain, and I hung out with them all the time after school, and some of them even more 😅. Very pleasant experience getting to know about them and where they came from, and it was always super fun and interesting to see how they would react or approach American customs or even that of the other exchange students.

Was super bummed out when COVID disrupted that.

Instagram differs from Reddit in the sense that most people use Instagram because that’s where their friends and family are. You’re posting more personal things there. An alternative doesn’t really work for most users if no one they know is using it. Good luck with the push, though.
