Wait, That\'s Actually Genius
That’s suspiciously relatable
Plot twist, but make it cozy
I had an interesting conversation about this with a great high school teacher I had. He was talking about how much of an effect parents (and nurture in general) has on the pain perception of kids that will later determine how "tough" of an adult they will become. This was one example: your child falls. As an adult you generally can gauge quite well how bad that fall was and can control YOUR reaction. That silent moment is actually your child looking for THAT, how mommy or daddy acts now. If you run towards them with a face full of horror, they start to scream and cry. If you calmly pick them up with a smile and a casual "whoopsie" they will smile back. The first type will likely be more sensitive to pain as an adult, the latter more impervious.
Guess I’m doing that now
Plot twist: It actually makes sense
Didn’t See That Coming
Well, that escalated quickly
Lowkey Genius Moves
Plot twist, but make it fashion
You don’t have to be perfect, promise

Low key mood booster
No way that just happened
Well, that escalated quickly
Wait, that actually makes sense
Is he called Calvin, by chance? And sorry to tell you, but it is a real concern that too many adults are unaware of.
Bet you didn’t see that coming
Well, that escalated quickly
Don't laugh this away, she's probably a HSP and can really feel the little difference in texture...
That’s suspiciously relatable
Well, didn’t see that coming
When you low-key relate way too hard
Ah...nathan fillion, jewel staite, morena baccarin, gina torres, alan tydyk.
Plot twist: not what I expected
Surprisingly Relatable, Not Sorry
One Czech singer wrote a loong Facebook post a couple of months ago after he had to live alone for a few weeks because of covid. It was all about how amazing his partner is, how he hadn't realized until then that the laundry doesn't wash/dry/fold itself, that dishes have to be washed and that toilet doesn't stay clean on its own. He praised his girlfriend so much. Not one sentence mentioned that he's going to now participate more and so many people clapped to say how amazing he is.
Didn’t see that coming
That Hit Way Too Close
Argh - my partner. We have three washing up liquid bottles on the go. WHY?
Not what I expected, but okay
Wait, did I just relate?
Plot twist, but make it relatable
Not mad, just impressed
Wait, did that just happen?
Plot twist: Didn’t see that coming
You look better than a Disney princess with and without a mask ;)

My son has gotten very good at this. But only because his music class is not at 8:15am. If it was that early, I would toss both the recorder and the computer out of the window to make it stop.

In these days a good loud "dad-sneeze" is the way to chase noisy neighbors out of their gardens and into their houses with doors and windows shut.

My kitten does this to me now. I swear it wasn't like this with her predecessor 15 years ago.... or is this what we wipe from our memories so the cycle can continue?

It's the same with getting married. Married people want single people to be miserable.

My daughter started this chain once and I anticipated this outcome, but she actually wanted a bowl of frozen blueberries and a spoon. It's something she eats all the time now.

It's the same for me, but in my case the kids finish their drinks and my wife leaves half finished cokes in the fridge 😂

I laughed so much on so many posts. Most of those kids are really fantastic, same as their parents comments
That's because kids have the weirdest thought processes and you cannot make that stuff up.
Load More Replies...s**t I identify so deeply with most of these that I hurt myself laughing. Literally strained a muscle in my neck
