Manipulativeness

Oh fun stuff, in Canada and the USA, the governments actually gave companies hundreds of millions dollars to build fibre optic networks. The companies proceeded to do NOTHING and the governments did nothing about it.

I’d look it up to back up my sources, but my internet connection is so slow. I’d call that irony, IF ONLY I COULD LOOK UP THE DEFINITION

“Hey, I was wondering if you could help me figure something out. I was really flattered by your invite the other day, but I’m not interested in dating right now. I enjoy your friendship and I don’t want to jeopardize it. Is there a way we can comfortably set boundaries without ruining that?”

IMO this way you let them know you’re interested in maintaining a relationship but at a friendship level. You demonstrate that you care about their feelings while clearly establishing the need for specific boundaries.

Also, “Pierre” also means “rock” in french, so his name could be translated to “Stone Wolf Clawed”

I went to bed at 10pm after cleaning my bathroom and putting away my clothes. I woke up 5 hours later with a cold. No regerts

So, fun fact, when most people are able to recall whatever incredible idea or artistic vision they had in their dream, they soon realize that it was just their memory replaying something that already existed. An obscure song that you forgot about, a scene from an old movie that you’d think would make for a funny comic strip, etc. Now, this doesn’t mean that people aren’t creative and can’t dream of new things, it just means that your dreams just churn out a vomit of things you’ve processed before.

For flavour, I recommend that all “regular” animals that normally have sharp-pointed ears now have human-shaped round ones.

I wanna see a Dog Wick spin-off. John is the one that stays at home and the dog goes out to protect him

If you think that’s rock bottom, I think you should make like a Zapp Brannigan backrub and go lower.

Lower.

Lower.

Too low!

Lower…
