I feel awkward and uncomfortable without my wristwatch. My kids do not wear one. They do not see the point. Once you have spent your entire life wearing something, it becomes second nature and feels weird to not do it. I am not oppressed by westerners' wristwatch ideals.

    Oh i’m so ocd, i love cleaning. Omg i’m so bipolar today!! Was that a shadow, i’m so schizophrenic 🤪. I’m literally having a panic attack over this lmao. All of these are things i’ve heard and while i’m not diagnosed with any of these (parents refuse to take me to a psychiatrist) it’s so stupid because people struggle with these things.

    “I can’t believe you like that!” Said every time I eat lunch at my desk. Seriously? Do I come over to your desk, interrupt what you’re doing, and criticize your dining choices? Go away.

    Basically all sentences starting with "All men", especially relating to sexuality and relationships. Some highlights:
    "All men need sex no matter what."
    "All men are promiscuous in nature."
    "All men want to lose their virginity as soon as possible."
    "All men are attracted to big chests."
    "All men dread being chained to one woman for the rest of his life."
    Now of course, all of those are annoying stereotypes to say the least, but I'm a guy on the asexual spectrum and this kind of stuff makes me super uncomfortable.

    -"No Offense but" and then they proceed to tell you the most offensive and abhorrent thing you ever heard
    - "Oh my God, I'm sorry I murdered you and your whole family, I have ADHD." Please don't blame everything on your mental illnesses
    - "LGBT is so controversial." It shouldn't be. Why is a gay person's existence controversial?
    -"Godzilla could actually beat Ultraman with EASE, he's much bigger and more powerful" No. As much as I love Godzilla, Ultraman has much more experience and is a very skilled fighter. As intelligent as Godzilla is, he is still an animal and could not outsmart Ultraman. Ultraman has defeated countless enemies larger than him. This fight would be very even, with no one having the advantage, and if anyone did, it would be Ultraman
    -"I'm vegan, and my dog LOVES her vegan diet" No, she doesn't. Give her a plate of whatever vegan food, and a steak, and she will go for the steak 10 times out of 10.

    Honestly, people enjoying influencer culture… I hate toxic influencers in general, but people keep trying to get me to like them.

    That, and being accused of anorexia because I’m skinny, this was by a doctor, btw, and could clearly see that I had a severe thyroid issue and they did absolutely nothing about it

    Said by lots and lots of people when, for example, they see me trying to read. I then either patiently explain that not every eye disorder can be corrected with glasses or say something snarky like "You mean like Ray Charles or Stevie Wonder?"

    When I go somewhere with someone I know, and all the people I don't know starts asking away.... where do you live, are you married, why not, do you have kids, why don't you want kids, then tries to convince me to have kids and that is what I am suppose to do, where do I work.... Jesus Christ, I didn't realize I came to a fckn interview! Did I get the job??? F off. I know it is a conversation starter, but there are sooooo many other things to talk about, I would know, because I tend to avoid those type of questions, because people will usually tell you if they want to talk about it.

    The boyfriend jokes every. single. goddamn. time I mention a boys name. I go to a girl's school, so all the relatives get a bit over excited when they find out I do, in fact, talk to a couple of boys. I've been fielding comments about this one boy (who I've always been pretty close friends with) since we were both about 5.

    Speaking in hyperbole and using the word "literally" to mean it's exact opposite, "figuratively". As in:

    My daughter has always loved horses. She was really into them for a long time. Still is. When she was in Pre-K, the school and social worker questioned me about her "obsession" with horses. I'm like "Is that a bad thing?" They were like "Well, it's not normal." Wth??? How is it not normal for a little girl to love horses???

    "You should get out of your comfort zone."

    No, I have tried that and it's uncomfortable. Now, you should shut up and make the zone comfortable.

    The need to get out of one's comfort zone is coined up by extroverts who thrive on new experiences, hence their comfort zone is "outside the comfort zone".

    What in the exact hell is the point of this?? Not once in all of having known you (even if it's some stranger on the bus) have you implied that you may have even the slightest interest in reading, and this is the WORST possible way to "make conversation'. The book is there TO AVOID conversation! If someone wanted to talk to you, They'd do it!

    As someone who was really into art, I get it. There's really nothing too deep about my art work, and I'm hearing from song writers that some songs are really not as deep as people try to make them out to be. I know music lyrics & stories are analyzed to the letter in English classes. But, really, whatever aspects/perspectives people try to search for is not purposely thought out by the creator. I have a sketch I draw and shaded in HS art class. I have a sketch framed on my wall. It was really just a recreation from a computer graphic image I googled. My mom visited, stared at this picture for a bit then asked "Soooo... what's the story behind this picture? What does it mean?" I replied there was no meaning. She cut in "Yes there is." I had to tell her repeatedly there was no meaning.

    This is very specific to me, but I am very cold-natured (due to my chronic illness/invisible disability) and so I'm often wearing more clothes than other people and strangers LOVE to comment on that. They've even laughed in my face because I was wearing a coat in the winter? My favorite is when they say "you can't possibly be cold." Like...really? It's against the laws of physics that I'm cold when you're not? But literally everyone does it. No one thinks there's a problem with commenting on how my body works. And I hate it.

    I get this. The MINIMUM length of my sleeves is about an inch away from my elbow. Anything shorter than that I hate. Singlets and spaghetti strap tops are awful for me. Jumpers and jackets are my best friend. Jeans, leggings, track pants, long skirts. All f*****g amazing! I like to be covered up. NOT A PROBLEM

    "I want to say something..."
    Want to and should are 2 different things. Usually when someone says " I want to say something" it's my mom wanting to start a one-sided argument she calls a lecture.

    People who start a statement with "To be perfectly clear..." Do they normally obfuscate?

    If they’re talking to somebody who says “obfuscate”, they’re probably just making sure you can speak relatably to other people

    I have to wonder if these ding-dongs do that to everyone with the last name Li. Isn't that one of the most common surnames in the world? You'd think they'd get tired of the joke after telling it a jillion times. And not having people happy when they do it. I couldn't even tell you how many people I've met who have that last name. It's like Smith, or Patel, or Johnson. I kinda feel like this is also an example of casual racism. Not to mention that making fun of or making jokes about someone's name is something you'd think people would outgrow before high school.

    this happened to me when i was in 6th grade, my best friend was cutting all of the sudden when she feels sad. I asked where she learned it from? and she said you. She was never like this but she told me she felt like doing it because i did it too and she thought it was fine bc i was doing it. ive never been this fast to ignore and unfriend that person. The consequences i faced her "friends" kept bullying me for not being her friend n how i look like a zebra

    Just how people call me by my name. Always drawing out the vowels and the 'r'. It sounds like I'm in trouble.

    "OMG I like totally couldn't focus in class. I'm so ADHD!" As someone who deals with ADHD, has lived with it, and will continue to live with it, it makes my blood absolutely boil when people chock it up to just "not paying attention". Particularly when it's not that they, you know, literally couldn't focus no matter how hard they tried, or how much effort they put in, and they just chose to not pay attention. I also hate all the "ADHD isn't real," "You're just an addict. HAHA just kidding." "Why are you so bad at doing things on time? Are you broken or something?" And just stuff along those lines. I've spent way too much time masking and just trying to survive my ADHD for people to belittle it and make it into a joke

    When people ask me why I do bad in class or whatever, I just say "I can't focus sometimes" or "I get distracted" or "I get bored quite easily"

    I'm a 37 year old woman and I don't care if people ask if I have kids, but I hate when I say 'no, I don't want any' and people say 'oh don't say that', or 'you never know'. Worse when they ask 'Never?! You're not going to change your mind?' 20 years ago I thought going to work stoned was a good idea, people change, so I can't say for certain that 10 years from now I won't. Also, if I say I don't have kids or want them, that's not an invitation to continue the conversation.

    I have 3 I would not recommend children. It doesn't mean I don't love mine but it's hard work and a lot of the time lonely work to and the f#cking worry about where they are and if I'm a good enough mum sends my anxiety on one all the time!

    As a fair skinned, freckled person I find it annoying when people tell me I need to get some Sun (or a tan).
    Fpr one it is a direct insult that insinuates that I am less than, or ugly as myself.
    Also these people are old enough to know that not everyone has the same melanin levels.I tried to get some color a lot when I was younger, now all that skin is old, and damaged!
    My genes are not the same as yours. I don't tan, I burn.

    I'm just saying what Everybody is thinking....
    All designed to make the opposing view look like it's not relevant and only what they believe is right because every right minded person thinks like them.
    NO, you do not speak for Everybody, you speak only for yourself, if others agree they will say so, if they do not they may stay silent or let you know.

    Random students in high school: Hi, do you want to be your friend?

    Me: No.

    Them: (in a weird voice) Hi, do you want to be friends?

    Me: (in an annoyed voice) NO, did you listen, I say NO!

    Them again: (in the same voice) Do you want...

    Me: Shut UP! Shut UP!
