| I went to quit a few rock concerts in my younger days - in pubs, bars, concert halls, arenas and stadiums. Around at least 50-100 concerts, I think. I enjoyed watching bands playing in small venues, while standing in a big crowd in a stadium felt like a lot of hard work for me. For top acts like Dyl... |

| I actually think it's pretty unfair how the USA consistently subsidizes a lot of countries to the hilt like Israel and pays for all their stuff that have complete and total universal healthcare, when so many US citizens fully go without in these regards, and many of these satellite countries seem f... |

| My sensory preferences are that I want the impulses to be strong. I want the light to be bright, music loud, the weather really warm in the summer. I am tightning my shoelaces to the point that they often break. When I work-out I push myself hard and love outdoor running when the sun's shining and i... |

| We had bean bags, but it was for us kids to sit on while watching tv or reading a book. I piled a bean bag against the corner of a room and tried to use it to practice punches, but it was too soft. After a lot of begging my parents finally bought me a proper punshing bag and a pair of gloves. |

| Funny how people who think they're in a simulation always seem to believe everyone else is an NPC and not them, they're the playable character. I never made any such assumptions. Maybe the simulation decided it's time for you to know about it. And that simulation would be you, then? :wink: I could ... |

| If we are, at least that would give me hope that my life could be reset. I could relive my life over again, and maybe this time I can have a girlfriend, or a family, or achieve financial success, or start a digital nomad career in my 20s. Basically, not be a complete total f**king loser by my 40s. ... |

| People have different taste and beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. For example, younger men usually prefer younger women than older men does. When I was 25 years old I thought 30 year old women looked old. Now I think 40 year old women look really young. Today I feel there is an element of shall... |

| I'm guessing Bond, Bogart, Wayne and Eastwood wouldn't be classified as "romantic" types when it comes to "no means no". But many generations of men idolised these type of male characters. I don't remember a movie where a woman said "no" to any of them. https://www.the... |

With all due respect to CF, that doesn't mean we should use it. Sometimes that word gets thrown around here a little too causally in my opinion. |
