One very insightful human being named Samuel Beckett wrote: “Nothing is funnier than unhappiness.” This quote is from the play Endgame, and whilst it may turn your head in puzzlement, it’s quite simple—bad things happen, we go “ha-ha,” mostly because that’s the best we can do at the moment.
And so with that, we enter the chaotic realm of Twitter, where people gather to make sense of daily life through short bits of commentary. Some of it makes us chuckle, some makes us think that the asteroid is long overdue. One Facebook page is set up with the purpose to find and share the best of the worst and worst of the best tweets to have ever existed.
This page is fittingly called “The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2,” run by comedian Trev Lewis, who was kind enough to answer some of Bored Panda’s questions. We’ve spoken with Trev on multiple occasions; one of our previous articles can be found here, and another here.

There is a similarity, but, tbh, he lacks life in his eyes. She must be dulled a fair bit to be able to compete with him on that level - she'll always exceed him otherwise.

Yes that little s**t must be crushed.. oh! you mean movie.. yeah! she'll crush it..
Load More Replies...To me this is an example of men being allowed more grace with their frames than women. Kathy Bates is a fantastic actress but is considered plus sized, Elon appears the same here but he is not referred to as large.
Trust the science! What men and women prioritize in mates are quite different at times. Accept it and move on with your life. Men and women are never going to be the same.

There’s nothing better than an intelligent person leaving their mark on the world with a short message. Every day, 867 million of such messages enter the wonderful world of Twitter.
Wonderful may be an overstatement, as Twitter houses some of the most unhinged, honest, and curious people that exist. Comedian Trev Lewis has gone on a mission to collect some of the most interesting and hilarious tweets to ever exist, posting them on his page “The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2.”
We reached out to Trev to get his opinions on the new and not-so-improved Twitter after Elon Musk’s takeover, as well as to understand how important it is for us humans to embrace the funny side of life.
Yes, that IS how it works!!21 years of midnights and never a full 8 hours of sleep! Nobody respects day sleepers.
Load More Replies...Morning people assume we're just being lazy, no matter work shifts, difficulty with medical conditions or pain, or just natural rhythm. If the morning person sleeps from 10 pm until 6 am, that's eight hours. If the night person sleeps from 4 am to 12 pm, that's eight hours. Same amount of sleep, different time. Neither is lazy.
Agreed. I'm a total night person and literally everyone is making fun of me when I turn up at the office before noon. I work the same amount of time and as efficiently as everyone else. It's really getting on my nerves. 🙄
Load More Replies...i am a night owl. The rest of my family is not. I was always quiet as to not wake them up, but they were always loud. They would never even try and would just make more and more excuses as to why they cannot shut up. One day my mom decided to vacuum the house while i was asleep in the morning. I walked up to her and told her that if she cannot respect my sleep schedule, then i won't respect theirs and will be loud in the night, see who clocks out first. It's been quiet since then.
My dog would wake me up early every morning - including on my day off! - in order to demand a treat. I used to complain about it, but of course now he's gone I keep longing to hear that telltale thump and clatter of claws outside my door. :(
I've gotten SO much flack from parents of people I've dated, because I'm not an early riser. Like so fricking what if I don't get up at 6.00 a.m.?? Not that I need an excuse, but I have several medical conditions that make it REALLY hard to get up early; unless I have a specific reason to get up early, my body just can't do it.
I lived with a very morning person.. she insisted on grinding chia seeds and blending smoothies at 6am every morning... It was an upsidedown house.. my bedroom was under the kitchen. Beyond loud
I would make her smoothie the night before, then "accidentally" hide/break the blender before going to bed. World peace 👼🏻
Load More Replies...Not this morning gal....I tiptoe around the house. If I'm too loud, someone else might wake up and disturb my peaceful morning coffee time. Precious moments before the sun comes up.

To back it up a bit to a time not-so-long-ago, Trev told Bored Panda that he was conflicted about Musk acquiring Twitter. "Musk has a long history of buying his way into companies and then running them badly," he said, describing the common occurrence of a burning Tesla grazing the ponds of Twitter, as though a metaphor of sorts. You know how the saying goes: If it ain’t broke, don’t get Musk involved. But they did.
Now, a few months after it all transpired, we can all agree that “it’s a hot mess.” “I predicted Musk would run Twitter poorly, but he's performed beneath even my lowest expectations,” Trev said. From major updates on the daily, to Musk’s conduct on the platform, it clearly shows that he “fundamentally has no idea what he is doing. Twitter feels different in many ways now.”
For someone like Trev, who uses Twitter to curate content for other online communities, he’s been finding it much more difficult to source authentic content, as bot farms have been allowed to push their stuff to the forefront. “The good stuff is still there, and I still consider it my favorite social media site, it just takes a lot more effort to navigate,” he explained.

Fight, flight, freeze and the final one is appease - which I think listening to music would do nicely!!
Load More Replies...Depends what the email is. If someone is blackmailing you to mow their lawn, then a fight or flight response is appropriate. If it’s your boss telling you that you’ve been slacking off when you have not then that is also appropriate. If the email is about bored panda telling you that you got an upvote on your comment then the fight or flight response is not appropriate.
No idea....I was under the impression "plus one" could be literally any other human you want to bring.
Load More Replies...This! I wasn't allowed to bring my bestie to a christmas party. I asked why everyone else was allowed to bring someone and they said that only romantic partners are allowed. I sat alone the entire night just because I don't have partner.
Don't waste your time with those idiots, next time spend the time with your bestie.
Load More Replies...I've been on my own during several weddings. Only once was I allowed to bring someone (I bought my sister and it was such a fun evening). I need a person during these events. Otherwise my entire day will be spent thinking who to sit with next, not to spend too much time with the bride (my friend who invited me), not to seem too alone, not to be pushing my company onto people, weddings are so exhausting because of this. I just need a person. Just one.
To me a plus one is anybody. Hell, bring your mom for all I care, bring your next door neighbor's kid...
Yes, or their kid. Or pet. In fact, are plus ones even necessary? I feel like that's an American thing, but idk. Where I come from, people just show up. Even strangers may show up.
friends of mine gave me this option for their engagement party/meal. Was extremely grateful but everyone there assumed we were a couple
In my single days, if I wasnt allowed a friend at least my emotional support goldie joined me or I cancelled. Not enduring formal stuff alone.
You know I thought "goldfish" at first, made me wonder
Load More Replies...Like this one. Have had so many bridzillas that always say the the plus one needs to be a partner or a lover. One time our mom was invited to a wedding and was recently divorced so she brought her best friend as a plus one. The bride at first made a HUGE stink saying "you are not a lesbian why would you lie to people like that? And if this is you coming out, how could you take away from my big day" mom just replied with "she's my best friend. I said i was coming with a plus one and got divorced (thank heavens) so not to put you in a bid with the quick change i just brought my best friend." The bride went into more of a tizzy freaking out about her vibe and that a freshly divorced woman at her wedding could curse her and her husband. Annd then ahd the gul to say that our mom should've got a "fake husband" for the wedding as to not cause confusion. Our mom's best friend toook that and ran with it for the whole rest of the wedding, she started saying "hello! I'm _____ fake husband!"
I'd absolutely do the same. If I had sprinklers, I'd make sure those went off too at 6am

The future of Twitter is an uncertain one, but Trev still has hope for it, as long as its leadership is sorted out. “I think Twitter will quickly fall under the leadership of someone new, and then it will more closely resemble the pre-Musked version of the platform,” he said. “It's simply too popular to completely fade away. We've seen Tumblr experience its own renaissance recently.”
“Twitter is far more crucial to the zeitgeist than something like Tumblr,” Trev continued. “It has powerful and influential people on it. There's nothing else like it in the increasingly video-centric social media arena. People simply love to log onto Twitter and see what the world is talking about. So, I'm fairly confident it will find a path forward.” We sure hope so, but I think it’s time we returned back to the funny side of things.
Tragedy and humor are two tropes that will continue to define humanity. If you’re trying to find purpose, it’ll be somewhere on that spectrum. Trev believes that humor is “the most powerful and natural coping mechanism we have,” explaining that’s something we not only enjoy, but also need. “That’s why so much of the internet is centered on making people laugh,” he said. “That’s why I try my best to create spaces online where people can reliably find something to laugh at and brighten their day.”
My kids asked that when their dad had been away for a few days and they suddenly saw that the car wasnt in the garage 🤣
Lmao my parents and siblings thought I went with my mom on errands, cuz i was up in my room. They ordered dinner and ate it and were all doing their thing when I appeared and my dad was like omg I’m so sorry I thought u we’re with ur mom, do you want dinner?
My sister called one time, when I was the last kid living with Mom, and asked where Mom was. I said "either in the laundry room or Syracuse"
The curse of the digital age, makes you less observant of the things going on around you.
This may get me downvoted into oblivion, but I do support medical testing of animals when needed. All of the life saving meds we use have at some stage been tested on animals. If we where to start the testing directly on humans very few meds would make it (or very few test subjects). I have several times been part of medical trials of new meds and vaccines and I can willingly say I wouldnt do that if it animals hadnt takem the first rounds so we at least know something about possible side effects. Animal medical testing should be used with caution and respect, but I will not say to a terminally sick kid that the medicine that might have saved them is still in the lab due to a ban on animal testing.
That entirely depends on the available alternatives. There are often other options, e.g. living tissue samples, which can even be grown from human stem cells and thus be a closer match than animal models. If you don't live in a stupid country where Christians decided that human stem cells are sacred, like I do, that is.
Load More Replies...My parents adopted a test beagle. This poor dog had NO concept of life except fear. Literally everything outside her crate was totally new. And there's worse I'll leave out. Two years later and she's finally adapted to being a dog, enjoying dog things, and not having her back shaved to have test cosmetics smeared on it until her skin burned.
Reading this just makes me sick. :( How old was the sweet girl when she came out of that hell?
Load More Replies...Me too! I have two adopted beagles, litter mates, that are almost 14 years old. They can still drag me down the street if they catch a scent while we're walking!
Load More Replies...Because experimenting on humans is mostly illegal. You can't give a human a new cancer drug without seeing what that drug does to living bodies....so you give it to a beagle. If the beagle has no significant side effects you test it on a healthy volunteering human, if the beagle has terrible side effects you go back to the drawing board to fix your medication. It's terrible, but necessary. [Note: cancer drugs were used as an example because that's typically what beagles are used for]
Load More Replies...On dear some people are deluded about efficacy of testing on animals as a precursor to human testing. Mainly it's unnecessary and doesn't give a good indication of the effect on humans. Read this if you want to educate yourselves https://bmcmedethics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12910-019-0352-3#:~:text=Animal%20testing%20has%20been%20central%20to%20pre-clinical%20drug,responses%2C%20both%20with%20respect%20to%20efficacy%20and%20toxicity%2Fsafety. And then weap for all those animals who died for nothing.
Huh…? I’m a bit confused; animal testing in medical research is CRAZY hard to get a green light for, it’s going to have to be absolutely necessary, have a high efficacy and absolutely no possible alternative, or it’s not happening. That’s “possible” alternative, not “cheap” alternative. If there’s another way that costs one and a half fortunes, you pay one and a half fortunes and do that instead; no green light. The ethics counsel would shut it down instantly. But maybe that’s depending on location, that’s quite possible; all I can say for sure is that where I live there is no unnecessary animal testing being done just because. Cosmetic testing isn’t happening at all, and no such animal tested products are legal to sell. We’re particular about it, it’s the law since 1979 and it’s followed rigorously. We don’t like animal testing, it’s by nature unethical, so we pretty much avoid it whenever at all possible.
Load More Replies...F**k anyone here justifying the cruelty these animals go through, boo hoo, why arent you used as a test subject? Why are humans better than animals?
Current information states that pregnant people can have 200mg caffeine daily.

If you were actually pregnant you would never say that your baby is dead, never.
Load More Replies...I'm overweight and years ago I was buying cigarettes and the gas station attendant said "You know, you shouldn't smoke when you're pregnant." I looked her RIGHT in the eyes and said "I'm not pregnant, I'm just fat." She then started stuttering and stammering, saying something about "these puffy jackets that all of the girls are wearing now-a-days are making people look bigger etc." I just walked away. It's VERY OFFENSIVE to assume someone is pregnant.
Yep, it's offensive to assume but it's mainly offensive to think you have the right to comment in the first place. Mind your own business about what other people are doing, and how they look.
Load More Replies...I'm not pregnant; it's actually a beer belly, but I love the Magic Circle of space it makes men give you, so I often don't correct them: if you're going to make a stupid, rude assumption, it's more than valid that I take advantage of it.
Hahaha, one older aquaintace saw me yesterday, we said hi, and she suddenly started stroking my stomach asking how is the little one doing, even though I was wearing really thick winter jacket. It took me a while to catch on, but then I said ” Nope, I’m just fat! O_____O” And now I’m feeling really guilty because I’m actually like 10 weeks along and not showing at all and couldn’t just have admitted it to her because we haven’t told anyone yet.
eh... yes and no. the only reason i don't give "unsolicited advice" even in situations when it's killing me is because people are d!cks about it. i had a manager who was 8 months pregnant and smoking. and not like 1 cig once a month to alleviate the withdrawals (which is bad as is) but like 2 cigs in the 15 minutes we had to be outside during a fire drill. i overheard her saying that allegedly her doctor told her it's okay so i never said anything because if a person thinks endangering their unborn child is fine they won't like me saying otherwise. if you exhibit questionable behavior in public you're going to get "unsolicited advice" about it and the only people not giving any are people who had to deal with someone as pleasant as you when they first tried.
To go back to the perplexing quote at the very beginning of this article—“Nothing is funnier than unhappiness”—we can see the interpolation of the two. Humor can be emphasized by objectively ridiculing unhappy events in order to relieve the tragic feelings, states Arisa Tohma in her discussion of the play. The narrow line between tragedy and hilarity makes for an interesting dynamic, in which both sides share two sides of the same serious truth.
Dorion Sagan in his essay “The Human is More than Human: Interspecies Communities and the New ‘Facts of Life’” argues that it’s not possible to understand life without understanding the role of energy, and although he speaks on the need for humans to live more in tune with nature and its cycles, I found this idea to be quite interesting.
Man, keep in touch with that uncle. Mine dropped out of sight for a good twenty years, we all thought he had died somewhere unknown, we tried to track him down multiple times and failed. Both his parents died and we were finally informed that he died alone at a hospice for the homeless. One of the hospice workers convinced him to give her information for family to inform, bless her. He didn't want us to know that he had got lost in drugs and mental illness again. We wanted to know. We knew he struggled, we weren't ashamed.
Yes, I also had an uncle who would disappear from everyone's life for months or years at a time. I don't remember if it was the drug use or alcohol that finally got him. RIP.

All children are different, but...yes. I would be concerned if a child, by the age of two, only had a vocabulary of one word. That is a developmental delay that your family may want to get checked out. The Mayo Clinic puts normal word development by age two at about 50 or so words...and by the end of the 2nd year, at over 200. Your nephew is severely under those parameters, he may benefit from an examination.

Our body stores all sorts of information in the form of energy, most of which we don’t think too much about. We’re often taught to bury our pain and soldier on, and, according to Healthline, this can lead to repressed emotions, also known as unconscious avoidance over time. Ever feel like you need to cry, scream, laugh, punch a pillow, or dance it out? Then you should probably do so.
We’re all just batteries full of anxieties, random spouts of happiness, and the craving for mac n’ cheese. Why not have a laugh, because crying makes the eyes quite sore. And if you laugh hard enough you cry—it’s a massive win!
My 4 year old tells me "and if you say no it will make me cry my little eyes out!"

When I was in my mid 30's, I was sitting in the living room at my mom's with my current GF sharing how most of my friends in high school were girls. My mom said 'They weren't your friends'. I said 'Yes they were' and she repeated herself. This continued until I started to get a little pissed. Then my mom looks at me and says 'okay... They didn't want to be just friends'. After a very long pause on my part and a dawning realization, I yelled "Why didn't you tell me that in high school?". To this day I am horrible at reading social cues from women and err on the side of 'they are just being polite/nice'. probly why I'm single at 55... but very happy.
Found out about a couple of those at my 30 year High School reunion. Was very strange to learn how oblivious I was.

House was such a fun protagonist. Hugh Laurie really got people feeling for a drug addicted a*****e with no social skills.

Sherlock holmes style movies/series and medical series like ER were on the rise. House was the perfect mix of Sherlock and a Doctor with a good background story. Also at that time it was by far the best you could watch on TV.
I love that for a long time Americans had no clue that he is British and we’ve been enjoying his comedic talents for years, his work with Stephen Fry and the Blackadder team built a great reputation and when he appeared as House we knew that he had the talent to carry that character to great heights. I almost love House as much as I love George in Blackadder, almost but not quite 😀

Nah, plenty of people make it big. It's just that it's never the winner but someone booted earlier. Melanie Martinez, Christina Grimmie , many others had real careers after joining such a show. It's also different in other countries, since many countries have their own the voice. In my country, it has produced plenty career opportunities, some of them now voice acting in musical disney movie dubs.
I've never heard of either of those people. They can't be that famous

Like Jennifer Hudson, she was eliminated and went on to be the youngest woman to get an EGOT.
Load More Replies...Can’t stand those shows. Never watched more than a few minutes of that boring c**p before changing the channel.
I heard there is a bit of a sinister reason for this. The contracts you have to sign beyond a certain level in the show essentially contract you out to a certain producer and they get the rights to use the talent as they see fit. This includes burying it if they feel their current talent could be threatened by the newcomers. And the NDA embedded is life wrecking if you decide to spill the beans. One band, that became Raccoon iirc, was doing great untill they got the contact that stated that the producer could force them to disband the group or replace members if they wished and could force them to play only what the producer wanted. They quit the competition on the spot, and could only say they did not agree with the shows conditions.
In the Netherlands (where The Voice format was created and started) a few judges and the leader of the band are assaulted for inappropriate behaviour. So the whole show is cancelled. A lot of insecure/young/ambitious people are broken due to the power of the judges/coaches and this band leader.

If you are capable of it, you definitely need to bring the snake with you if you cannot tell what species it is. However, make sure you do not put anyone else in danger, so either kill it or yeet it in like a box or a bag or something. Also, please notify the ER before coming in, that would make it all easier.
In the age of cell phones - photos are better. But people are often horrible at identifying nature. When I kept bees, a few times someone would say one of my bees stung them. Every single time they described "thing that was not a bee". Often a common wasp such as a yellow jacket.
When going out, just hang a sign on your boot that snakes can't bite without proper ID.
I understand if the snake is alive. But nowadays a few pics from different angles should be good enough, also send them ahead so they are ready when you come in. Here we only have one venomous snake so no problem. If you get bitten at a terrarium hopefully you know what species. Although Stockholm did have a escaped cobra on the loose for a few adventurous days.

What's wrong with praising someone for helping out? When my wife does the dishes or cooks, I thank her (and vice versa).
It’s sad to see downvotes for the comments about complimenting someone when they do something. Even if they are fishing for the compliment or a thank you - why not let them know they’re appreciated? Does it hurt to be grateful? Or are we too stuck on the “ya but look what I did” stuff? Give a compliment or a thank you, it’s a good thing, not something to be stingy with.
Give the guy some props god damn... Why is it so hard for ALL of us to say thank you or appreciate the little things, regardless of baseless 'social norms' continuously thrown in our face as if they're a plague.

Load More Replies...I wholeheartedly recommend two separate bedrooms for all people who live together. Especially when you grown older and all kind of nocturnal bad habits are starting to ruin your sleep of that from your partner.
Separate rooms work perfectly if you have the space. My partner snores, I am an extreme wriggler and toss and turn a lot. He gets too warm with a big duvet, I can't sleep if my feet are cold. He doesn't use pillows, I build a pillow fort and bury in. I like all my clothes and toiletries put away neatly, he leaves his dirty laundry lying on the floor until the weekend. So separate rooms is great for us-plus it means we make a choice which room we use for snuggling, it's almost like dating again.
you just described my partner and I almost exactly. We have separate rooms for these exact same reasons.

Load More Replies...I’ve heard it’s upwards of 10%-20% of people, too. Poll time! Do you create mental images when you read?
I have to. If I feel like I'm not imagining enough, I will pause and imagine stuff till I'm satisfied before I continue reading. But that's only for stories though. Doesn't happen when I read for tests and exams.
Load More Replies...This freaks me all the friggin way out!!! I thought everyone created a visual image of what they were reading. How can you not? I know my imagination runs 24/7, that is why I have all kinds of trouble sleeping, but had never heard this before and I have 2 college degrees. Oh merciful Heaven.
Dawn, I teach reading… and a colleague of mine, who also teaches reading, hadn’t heard of this in 16 years of teaching. Meanwhile, I’m innately fascinated by aphantasia… and having taught for more than 25+ years… I still have more questions than answers. I think it’ll always be that way.
Load More Replies...Hang on, sorry, what? You all do this? I don’t have aphantasia or anything like that, and I’m usually very good at visualising things, but it has never occurred to me that I should “see things” when I read. I’m truly baffled right now 😲
I think this is probably the most similar to how I am. I can visualize mostly whatever I want, but normally I just don't. Largely that's because I just don't care what characters look like in books, or what their surroundings look like, just tell me who they are, where they are, and what they're doing.
Load More Replies...Never? Do you see words, instead? For example, if I say “apple”… you may not see a red fruit, but can you see the word? What if you’re not reading, but being read to… if your brain doesn’t have to process the words visually… and you’re listening instead… can you imagine images?

I carry an old school Monopoly Get Out of Jail Free Card with me at all times. Worked twice. cops-63ac4...3cb25c.jpg
I reported that I'd left my car by the side of the road but I'd be recovering it shortly, in case it was reported to the police. Could I remember the bloody vrm, could I heck. I ended up telling them to do a postcode search. I was close though...
We don’t have registration stickers or tags on our cars in Australia. Nor do we have to keep the rego papers in our car. Every police vehicle has a scanner that picks up your number plate and lets them know if you’re driving an unregistered vehicle or if it’s reported stolen.
Our cars have disks on their windshield which prove registration. Scannable with a clearly-printed date. Same as UK.
I just cried and told him I didn’t have it and that the reason the tags were out of date is that it was the family car and the tags went to the wrong house as my parents were getting divorced. This was actually the truth but I still got a ticket but at least it was just a fix it ticket for the tags. Still got the speeding ticket. I wasn’t pitiable enough apparently, I had just gotten off the freeway and was flowing with traffic, no clue what the speed limit even was.
First time I was pulled over, the officer asked for a bribery to let me go, and my brain went into auto mode. I handed him the little money I had and somehow continued driving until I arrived at work. When I stopped, I started crying. I wasn't sure why but I felt... just wrong.

Load More Replies...As an older sibling to a former toddler, you have to become a code breaker to understand anything they say
YEEEES did this with younger bro and cousin. I am the code breaker
Load More Replies...I'm a dad and one time my son was in a public bathroom and another little boy looked at me and said something indistinguishable (to me anyway). I explained that my son was in the bathroom and he had to wait. His mom looked at me surprised and asked if I understood Polish. . . . Nope I just understand kids.
Took us 3 weeks to figure out what "inest-om" means, she only says it in the car. Woke up in the middle of the night and yelled out "SHE'S SAYING 'ALMOST HOME'! IT MEANS ALMOST HOME!!!"
Yeah, parents can translate almost anything. I'm always interpreter for my adorable 18mo daughter.
It's a long road of trial and error to understand your toddler. Parents spend a looooot of time with their kids (hopefully) so they know their kids' code words. Lol. But as an example when my oldest was about 1 years old we'd take her to the zoo regularly. She then started to talk about "gebau" which, in my language, sound a lot like a male goat, gedebuk. She would get so upset when we took her to the goats in the zoo and eventually my bf started guessing on each of the animals at the zoo. Just a few animals per zoo-visit. It took us nearly 6 months to realise she meant a manatee (søko in my language). Not any sound from her gebau-word is the same as the actual word she meant. And it took us 6months to decode. Lol. Understanding toddler-gibberish is a continuum of events like the gebau-one we had. And for a loooong time you, as a parent, will be working on many words/sounds to decode at the same time.
All older siblings are like this. My younger brother had a speech impedempt, and he would say the most random things. I could always understand him even when he said "And that orak with speech". He meant Orange Cheese.
Idk why but for me, every letter after after N is a part of the underworld of letters. Like they live in the shadows lurking while the other letters go about their day to day lives
That's actually true. The number of words starting with letters A to N follow a smooth and simple law. But after N the number of words beginning with each letter goes wildly unpredictable. So for example letters Q and R are next to one another but Q is one of the least used letters and R is one of the most used. I blame the compilers of the first dictionary, They started off all dedicated and gung ho, but by the time they reached Q they didn't care any more.

Our HR lady quit like right after and was replaced by one of our owners’ wife, nothing to be done about it.

Well that’s just called living with someone and sharing your bed with them, it’s not marriage. I don’t know why so many people can’t grasp that the vast majority of partners live together without having a marriage contract (some later go on to get one, but a lot don’t). So many posts generally about “marriage” are just about sharing a house/bed. What century are these people living in?!

What a waste... Still so angry that I cannot rewatch even the first seasons.
Still don't want to watch the last season so i can keep the series in good memory
I stopped watching sometime around season 4 or 5, when a certain character started developing into a hardened ruler, ripe for corruption. I was like, "I see where this is going. I'm out!" My husband continued watching, and he said it ended pretty much exactly how I thought it would (I googled the spoilers after the show ended, to verify it). I even predicted how some of the side stories would develop. People always say the last season was awful, but it got really predictible early on. I got bored with it.
I don’t understand. What happened? I’ve never watched to show before, btw
They badly rushed the last season, allegedly due to how expensive it was, resulting in plot turns that weren't set up properly and a disatisfying end. Still an incredible show when at its best, with great characters, and it was often breathtaking visually. Unfortunately also some pretty low lows when it went too far for most people with some of the violence. Overall it's still worth watching imo. There's a reason it was such a cultural phenomenon.

Don't emojis mean whatever you want them to mean? That's why I skip them, why I never try to "read" them, because my innocent mind never gets the message.
You keep using that emoji. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Am sure it doesn't mean what the daughter thinks it means, but a dirty girl is a toy forever.
As a kid, I always thought it was kind if weird how there were only a few kinds of punctuation to let the reader know how words should sound in your head. We have all these different emotions at varying degrees, and yet, all you can write is plain, a question?, or screaming! But is the person excited, or angry when they're screaming? Are they just 'screaming' a little bit for emphasis, or are they going over the top? And it's funny to think we didn't even have these three basic dialogue-enders until fairly recently. Historically, some cultures barely had punctuation at all. It's had to evolve over time. But, now all of a sudden, we have all these different ways of denoting how something should sound or come across. I think it's neat. How else would you create such nuanced punctuation? Little faces are perfect for expressing emotion. And yet, the way we use emojis is changing all the time, too. Every generation uses them differently. Case in point! Language is always evolving. I think that's fascinating.
It means squirting or spraying, and is completely context sensitive. Just like those two words, the meaning changes based on what was just before them. Girl here has the mind many men crave.
When I was about 23 my dad called me and asked what, "See You Next Tuesday" means. I told him to call his sister so she could explain it to him. Right before he hung up I said, "Hilary Clinton."

I'm sorry I don't agree with this at all. I'm in a relationship for me. I am not in a relationship for the people in my life. You're never going to be universally liked or loved.
