I really need to start reading the blog name because I thought I was having some sort of moment right there.

i am massively overdue for a very very good week where not a single bad thing happens and everything is easy

Could mean good things!

Hey @evilwizard. So, you up to anything new lately?

haha it’s funny you ask

"it would be so good if it was good" will haunt you but "it's extremely good, except for the one or two parts which are so bad it's genuinely kind of insulting" will straight up drive you insane

why your sewing machine is acting up: - tension is wrong - wrong needle size - thread bit stuck somewhere - tension again - needs a deep clean and oiling - you said something and now its offended and refusing to cooperate until you realize your error and beg forgiveness

Your serger can also sense fear.

And they can both smell a deadline a mile away.

the purpose of friends is to have people who unconditionally hate your shitty exes & relatives. like maybe YOU have a complex relationship with your father but i sure don't. i'm outside his house with a gun. he's not the unforgivable asshole who raised me he's just an unforgivable asshole

*gathers all of the people in the world who write the number 7 with a little dash in the center of it so I can study them like little critters and find out what makes them do that*

There’s actually a lot of history regarding the development writing systems and why there are different visual representations of numerals, but the short answer is: it’s regional, and you probably picked up how to make your numbers look based on your parents or your primary school teachers

I do it out of spite because in grade school a kids detective story identified the culprit by saying NO American wrote their sevens with a line and I thought that was super flimsy evidence and it made me so mad I started putting a line through my sevens so the fictional detective would be wrong and then kept doing it for several decades since.

I do feel one can’t underestimate the “elementary school child taught themselves how to do this Out Of Spite” crowd

I had to learn to do it in adulthood because in my profession (optometrist), handwriting out a glasses prescription for -1.25 DS is very different than -7.75 DS, and ones, twos, and sevens can all look very similar if you’re writing too fast.

100% spite. I was taught standard 7 (and 2) in school, but mom and dad still used the fancy-ass 7 (and 2) and I wanted to do that too, but my teacher told me No, That's Wrong. So here we are.
