The youth slang "rizz" is short for charisma. I do hope I've been demonstrating rizz on this forum :lol:

"x2" is the numbers way of saying "twice"

I seriously don't know why I didn't know that already

I don't even know what that says about me....really

I mean I'm not a complete flipping dimwit

I'm learning that I can move forward in my life and still be the same person

That's a big thing for me to understand

This was yesterday, but according to my mom my younger aunt (her younger sister) drives like a race car driver while my older aunt (her older sister) drives like a turtle.

I didn't know turtles even could drive. :)

An elephant in Thailand went inside a grocery store.

Apparently the shoppers tried hard to ignore the elephant in the room. :)

I've heard of a bull in a China shop, but never an elephant in a Thai grocery. :D

That I probably have Hyperthymestic syndrome, meaning I can kind of relive most of my past in my head. It's wonderful to be able to have an autobiographical memory like that, but the only downside is that it explains why I hang on to bad memories too and why it takes longer for me to get over things.
