Hey Pandas, What Are Some Tips To Get A Girl To Like You?
Be polite and kind. Earn her trust and be her friend for awhile. Don't try to rush things. Don't be overbearing but be there for her when she needs it.Hey Pandas, What’s The Weirdest Thing That Happened To You During Halloween?
This year's trick or treating went really well and nothing weird happened during. It was the drive home that made me nervous. I live a ways from everything so we do our trick or treating in the nearest 'big' town. When we were heading home a vehicle behind me kept putting on the high beams, getting close, turning off lights, backing off, etc. They finally turned off before I turned down the road I live on. If that vehicle had been behind me I planned on just driving to the next town. Most likely the driver was just a drunk idiot, but as a single mom with two kids in the car I tend to get paranoid when things like that happen.Hey Pandas, What’s The Weirdest Thing That Happened To You During Halloween?
I left my house at about 8pm on Halloween night to go to the corner shop as I’d run out of a few basic bits. Due to covid and being generally busy and exhausted, the extent of my Halloween was watching some spooky movies with a couple friends. No decorations or anything. So stupid me thinks, yeah, I’ll be totally fine to go alone to the corner shop on actual Halloween at 8pm at night. I’m in the UK so 8pm is like, as dark as midnight right now. Luckily, I live in quite a busy residential area, so we have a lot of streetlights, a lot of houses had their lights on, and there were bunches of kids out with parents trick-or-treating. I literally get about 20ft out my front door, when suddenly, all the lights start to flicker and buzz. The street lights, the housing lights, the traffic lights, everything. It was like they were getting a power surge, getting dimmer and brighter, and dimmer again, started making a buzzing noise, genuinely like you’d expect to see in a Haunted House or a scary movie. Everyone suddenly went silent and stopped in their track, started looking up, looking around at each other, looking confused, just like you would expect in a bad horror movie immediately before the monster / demon comes out and kills everyone. Then suddenly a pop, and all the lights go out. Everything. It is now absolutely pitch black and you can’t see your hand in front of your face. Worryingly though, you can still sort of sense movement, but what you can’t do, is tell if the person creeping up on you is a kid in a scary costume, or just a creepy adult being a creeper / trying to rob you. Turns out little kids dressed as goblins and witches jumping out at you in the pitch black is still bloody terrifying. It was legit like walking through a Haunted House unexpectedly, and admittedly for free, but with it actually being real life where you don’t know if the people jumping out are just kids, or people dressing hp, or actual psychos, robbers, people off their faces on drugs etc. Oh and all the lights stayed off the entire night, and the next day and night too, so the entire thing was like a two day fear-fest. Thank God for lights on cell-phones, but suffice to say, whoever was responsible for that, message received, I will never ever be as dumb to go out on Halloween in the dark on my own ever again. And that is the story of how a grown ass adult was scared by the dark on Halloween.

The Blues. The Blues influenced everyone from Elvis, to The Beatles, to the Stones. It's a music of hardship and pain. And while it's rooted in the darkest time of our country, it's one of the most unifying forms of music ever created.

Wandering hype people. You never know when it will happen, but at some unexpected moment in America, someone is hyping someone up. Usually, this is performed by complete and total strangers. Some dude pulls off wrapping a particularly full burrito? Person ordering it will point it out to the (completely unrelated) customer behind them and say something like “This guy’s got this burrito on lockdown!” You order three extra shots of espresso at the coffee shop? “Oh, you’ve got this now, the day is YOURS” Rest stop at 2AM playing some light gun game while your friend takes a dump? “Oh, there they go! F*ck those robbers up! Do it! Yeaaaaah!” Wandering hype people exist everywhere in America. They celebrate small and large things. Americans genuinely love watching someone win, even if there’s no competition. From a half court buzzer beaters to having exact change, we feel this weird camaraderie when we share a moment of victory. Makes me think we’ve got a shot.

I love the American experience. I live in DFW and I don’t take it for granted. There’s Japanese revolving sushi bars; Russian bath houses; Korean super markets; Mexican foods; Italian markets. Globalization is alive and well. It’s my favorite thing about America.

This country has remarkable natural beauty. The national park system was a good idea even if it's underfunded and overcrowded now. In Colorado search and rescue is free and that is a very good thing. We also do craft beer well.

NASA. Even with all the government and political bullsh*t, it's still taking great strides in taking humanity forward, but more importantly they focus a LOT on educating the common folks during missions. I love that all the information and pictures and everything NASA produces are publicly accessible for free, and not even under copyright. I'm not even American but NASA had a great role in creating interest in me about Space and Astronomy when I was growing up.
