The "two or nothing" rule that the internet loves so much is so annoying.

So I ordered a DVD online but accidentally refreshed the page during the transaction, and it said it had terminated. So I did it again, and blow me, I did it twice. :roll:

The same thing happens sometimes when I'm posting on Facebook. I can't find my post on my timeline anywhere, even after refreshing the app. So I post it again - and then find it's posted twice. Ugh, so annoying. I quickly delete one when that happens, because I don't like making errors online.

So I call it "two or nothing".


Normally before refreshing a page, I check if a transaction has completed already by going to my emails and seeing if there is a confirmation email of an order that I have placed. If there isn't, I proceed to refresh but if there is, I abort the page.

Yeah, I guess I was a bit impulsive about it lol.
It's strange how I can be so impulsive with a brain that overthinks. Or unless I only overthink things that make me anxious, and if there's no anxiety involved then I make impulsive decisions instead (well, act before even making a decision lol). So I think my anxiety does me good in a way because if I didn't have anxiety then I'd probably be impulsive with everything I do, as in with no sense of danger or responsibility.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

I think impulsivity in your case probably arises form ADHD and then you sort of have anxiety that restrains some of the effects of your ADHD?

I wonder if the honey and lemon Jakeman's contain the same kind of sorcery as the throat and chest ones do
