I can never be a game show contestant.

Host holding index cards: "And we welcome our players this morning. The first comes to us from Florida and she says she's a home remodeler and loves horses. And it says here (looking closely) you were on staff of a big weenie website? So tell us about that. Was it Oscar Mayer?"

I don't like doors, well, specifically shut and locked ones.

Noticed recently after removing my office door (it just seemed redundant) that I have done this in my last three houses. Take the door off the sitting room or the kitchen or whatever because it's just in the way. Further, I have a habit of not shutting external doors - I'll leave the house, do some shopping and leave the front door unlocked. I never close internal doors in the house unless absolutely necessary. It drives the people I live with to distraction on occasion. Me and my ambivalence to locked doors.

It's kinda ok in the country, no-one's ever tried to burgle us, but I was just as bad when we lived in London. I left the front door open for a whole day one time. The other half went spare.

And then I thought and thought and thought and had some dim and distant memory of being locked in a bathroom in an unfamiliar place as a child and panicking. Maybe that explains it.

@DiamondJoe - Having had the front and side door of my former home smashed in 3 times by burglars within less than 2 years, with an alarm system in place, my household ransacked each time, in what is considered to be a fairly "safe" city in the USA, and losing 3 trusted room mates in the process, I have opted to prefer living alone in an apartment building that has at least some amount of security and protection from the wanton, clever street criminals, here.

My good intentions are often at conflict with shithead impulses.

 

[Tight_N_Juicy]

Available beverages at our house include:

Coffee
Green tea
Chamomile tea
Water
Fruit juice
Milk
Soymilk
Beer (occasionally)

I don't like soda. Root beer is ok sometimes, but I can't finish a whole can. It's way too sweet. All soda, just way too sweet

I'm Team Marmite. Being certified vegan makes it more ML friendly.

 

[Call_Me_Dave]

I am a 40-something fella who was just told I apparently have been “ghosted”. Sad part is the “ghostee” and I had only chatted via messenger, and never even alluded to anything more than mocking anti-vaxxers and science deniers in general. It was brought up by her to meet up (we went to high school together decades ago). When the weekend came, crickets. That was a week ago. At least I learned a new term!

Consider yourself lucky that this is new to you. It happens all the time... And it seems that women are more likely to ghost than men. The flip side is that dudes often insult and then flounce. Two girlfriends recently had dudes insult their age and then their appearance before unmatching/stop texting. I think you might be luckier.

This has been a banner year for me deciding to no longer give particular companies money because of... let us just say disagreeing intensely with things the company supports. Disney, Blizzard (video game company for you non-nerds), and Netflix.

I speak partially in jest. Our conversations have never gone into even flirting territory. Just 2 divorced old classmates commiserating on stupid people and secretly judging people. We were gonna meet last weekend, but I got crickets. She’s a single mom and had the weekend free, so I don’t blame her one bit for forgetting about our rather loose plan. I actually heard from her today and we are going to try for next weekend, we shall see.
