| Hey there,It's understandable to feel pressure to keep up with life's milestones, but remember, everyone's journey is unique.

| I am always surprised by my inability to come up with words to describe it. I'm often taken by surprise by that too. While the idea is just a thought in my head, it seems like it'd only take a quick sentence or two to communicate it clearly. But when I try, it's another matter entirely. It can also... |

| This is a great thread. I wish more Wrongplanet threads were like this. I think in pictures and words, but sometimes the words I say are just an effort to describe the picture which flashes up in my head. I find puns funny but my wife only puts up with them. When I hear words my brain often produces... |

| I'm that rusty socially, that I don't even have a clue what right wing refers to nowadays. Politics or something? Honestly, it think it's been a while since I've even sat down at a table and had a face to face conquersation or whatever it's called nowadays. I always imagine a bird with only one win... |

Designer molecule are being engineered on that scale for medical use and mechanical/material/chemical usage. A clock is a kind of computer ... |

Here on Wrongplanet sometimes people take things literally and don’t get when someone is joking. You can add a smilie or emoji to help people know when you ar... |

| It is also somewhat amusing that the words seem to be misspelled, as OP pointed out, especially when you are a school student and so much emphasis is put on “correct” spelling. As a young student it is funny to point to adults who “can’t spell”. Sometimes understanding what is funny requires perspec... |

It's a 70s disco song. Did you post this because you actually thought that that was the actual title of the song? Or did you knowingly distort the title of the song on purpose in a lame bid for laughs?
I simply assumed the second thing. |
