I have not been assimilated... I mean I don't have facebook so this seems rather absurd. You have to remember the anniversaries of when people asked you to "friend" them on facebook?

Have I ever mentioned how peaceful it is to not have facebook? :D
So a friend of mine clued me in. Apparently Facebook now sends you alerts, "It is the anniversary of the day this friend sent you a friend request."

That awkward moment when the program you use to keep in touch with friends knows more about your friends than you do.

The awkward moment when you're singing in your apartment while cleaning, and your neighbor (who also happens to be a good friend), knocks on my door and asks, "Are you okay?"

(Don't we wish ?!) But seriously, it DOES work both ways. Sometimes I'm being so guarded because I'm convinced every word I'm saying she's thinking is just a cheap pick-up line. (I mean, IT IS! but how does SHE know that? Lol:)) Really, tho, not EVERY guy is just trying to hook up with EVERY pretty gal that shows some kindness to him. (I mean, I AM! but not EVERY guy.....lol, jk, :), ok, I give up.....:) Help us know how to talk to you without being judged. It can be very.........awkward:).
That would never work for me. If I like someone, I act like a giddy hamster. It's obvious.

ME TOO! Happily, this is the awkward thread and it's ok to be awkward here.
Yay! Honestly, I don't know how to act any other way than awkward. And that's okay.
Most of the time.

I don't think that's entirely true for every girl. I've never been like that. I know the difference between a guy being nice and a guy being flirtatious. My friend, who is male, complimented me today on how I looked. I didn't think he was flirting with me or anything, but being nice.

I think it's because I grew up with two brothers.
cool so did I, no sisters, 2 older brothers

the moment when you went to create a thread of thread titles you think could be altered or titles that lead into a thread and people see the thread isnt what it appears to be like: Coming out.... to eat some food
HElP!.... im ok just joking I dont need any help at the moment


But then you decide the thread would be awkward and slightly on the nose/hurtful - It would have been funny tho!

That awkward moment when you wake up the next morning on the lawn and explain to Grandpa that you wrecked his car last night.

That awkward moment when you throw in some clothes to dewrinkle and you wind up throwing in three shirts - the one you want to wear but you know the wrinkles won't shake out, the next-best one you want to wear and you're almost sure it will dewrinkle, and the one you don't really want to wear but you're sure it will be wrinkle free - and you realize GRANDMA WAS RIGHT, it would have been easier to hang the things up when they came out of the dryer.

Well if the first doesn't work I don't have time to wait for another shirt to dewrinkle. Gotta get at least one shirt right the first time.

Would an iron not be quicker...?

I'm a guy. Most people are surprised that I prefer to do my own washing and drying. Let's not get crazy and talk about ironing here. >.>

I dunno... I heard of one housekeeper that "pressed" a shirt by putting it in a bed, between the mattress and box springs. Allegedly it works, though I sleep on a blow-up air bed (have for about 20 years now, very comfortable) so I wouldn't be able to test it. So a bar of iron rebar might be very effective at pressing a shirt.

Maybe you never inflated it enough? You can make them things firmer by blowing more air in them. I always inflate it until it's not mushy in the center.

I like the airbed, but can be dangerous, can be bad for your back. Over-inflate, wind up hovering near the ceiling. Roll over, fall out of bed, drop 5 feet to the floor. Splat. Not good for your back.:)
