When I have s*x with a lady they always orgasm. I've usually left by then though.
Since the internet became an integral part of our lives, we’ve used it not only for work and to find out what diseases we might have based on our symptoms, but also to bond with others. Social media exploded in popularity when people realized that they could connect with classmates they hadn’t seen in years, share their thoughts and feelings to wider audiences and find relatable content about topics they never would have thought to discuss in real life.
That’s part of the reason why X (formerly Twitter) became one of the world’s most popular websites. Today, many people have mixed opinions about the platform. But even if you don’t want to set foot there, you can see some of the best content shared on pages like Shower Feels.
Anyone who has a teenage girl in their life; be the "trusted adult". Being a woman is becoming something everyone gets an opinion on (apparently), and kids are getting exposed to that earlier and earlier. Support her through challenges, try to keep her from making bad choices, and just BE THERE. The world is a cruel place, and it's not fair, but try to do what you can to protect kids from it. The same advice applies to teenage boys too, but it's less relevant to this post.
Actually, not a bad idea. Maybe some exams could be open book. Some have the skills to remember while others have the skills to search.
Some careers, some activities, you just need to know stuff. if you can remember nothing at all, I don't want you working for me. If you need to spend all day on google to remember how to do your job, what's the point
Load More Replies...I've seen this suggested many times. The most sensible argument, to my mind, is that it's pretty rare in professional life to ever just pull facts out of your memory. You'll have access to databases or other files, SOPs, emails, books, and the Internet
What profession? If you need a book as a plumber or electrician you need to go back and be an apprentice again.
Load More Replies...Nope. You still need to have a lot of the basic information available in your brain, to be able to function at your job. Can you imagine a doctor who has to look up where the kidney is or what it does? Or an accountant who has to look up what the term income tax means? Or a mechanic who has to look up how to change oil? These are silly overexaggerations of course, but it really wouldn't work if a doctor has to look up how to treat every medical problem, they should only have to do that for rarer problems, because it would cost waaaaay too much time if they have to look up pretty much everything.
I totally get what you're saying, honestly, but I think the idea is getting a bit taken out of context. In one of my college courses it was all open book tests. The amount of information within the test required you to remember certain, especially all the basic, concepts because with the time allotted for the test it would be impossible to look up every single question and finish in time. This allowed the test taker to actually realize how much they HAD learned versus what they hadn't, and it taught the skill of being able to find the answer when needed. Yes, your doctor should know where your kidneys are, but there are plenty of times when a diagnosis can't be made and further research needs to be done. Knowing how to do that research is just as important. I'd much rather take a doctor who will take the time to do the research than the doctor who just jumps to a conclusion without any additional information.
Load More Replies...In my high school chemistry course, all tests were open book. None of the answers could be found in the text book. The tests measured how well you could apply what you'd read there.
My dad was an engineer, and he thought all engineering tests should let the student use all the helps that a real engineer has.
Beware of open book exams! My university statistics exam was open book and no one finished it in time. Reason? Had we understood the material we would have noticed the extensive calculations were unnecessary. The multiple choice answers were obvious. (like saying what's 2 + 2? (a) cheese (b) 4245 or (c) 4
But but but cheese is always the correct answer
Load More Replies...I am a cosmetologist. I went through the 2 years of school and then an 8 hour test. I do not expect my hairdresser to remember my hair color formula or all the names of the bones in my head. Still don't know why i had to memorize that. I would like my Dr. and other professionals to be smart but I am OK with them looking things up in books or whatever. That tells me they want to find answers and want to check themselves. I always tell my husband to fact check me if I say something i believe i heard.
As a student with severe ADHD (not diagnosed until my 40s), I am down with this
I think it's hilarious that folks are arguing like these 2 choices are mutually exclusive. That's not how the brain works. Open books/ research are ways to learn and will fortify memory and help people retain facts. How many times do you look up the same thing over and over again if you do it constantly. Whereas, if you are hit with something unfamiliar and/or that you don't deal with often, can you accomplish that task without research?
Having done both, I find Open Book harder! My Open Book Polytech exams had a minimum 80% pass rate and you had to have 100% correct spelling. Sure made teenage me pay attention to details!
They should. IMO the most challenging exams (in both positive and negative connotation) I've ever taken were open book exams
Yeah, and doesn't having notes(maybe ones that YOU took)help with memory retention too??
This. When I was a professor, in fact all of my exams were open book essay questions. I didn’t care about memorizing bits of info. I wanted to see how my students were able to integrate the information and think about the implications of what we were reading.
Of the 4 exams I had over a 5 year course, 3 were open book. I forgot my notes for the first one but got a Credit or Distinction on it, the second two I would have failed without the notes because it was maths (though I did pass my two maths exams in year 12 and only one was open book) and the last I had no notes but found it incredibly easy. All my other subjects had no exam as it wasn't seen as an important measure of knowledge.
Posts from X (previously known as tweets) can quickly make their way across the entire internet, as each social media platform seems to be gobbling up and regurgitating the same content nowadays. But why are we posting online in the first place? According to Everyone Social, there are several key motivators for sharing online.
Some people do it to provide valuable, entertaining or hilarious content for others. Meanwhile, some social media users want to define themselves, and having their own page is a perfect way to curate an image.
Many users also post on social media to maintain or grow relationships with others. After high school, you might have moved away from your hometown and lost touch with everyone who’s still there. Or you may have moved abroad for an excellent job opportunity. Social media can be a wonderful way to keep in touch with the people we might never be able to see in person again. Plus, you can even make new friends by finding those with similar interests. Can’t find any other vegans in your area? I guarantee there’s a Facebook group where you can connect with like-minded people!
I'm tempted to say this line to my parents and film their reactions.
I did that once with a bracelet with a guy in my fraternity. Mine was too big for me, his was too small, we exchanged. This came up 2 years later.
If you’re an avid social media user, you might even argue that it helps you feel more connected to the world, and in turn, more fulfilled. We all like to feel like we’re part of a community, even if it’s a virtual one. And if you have a brand or cause that you want to spread the word about, there’s no better way to get people talking than to post some content that goes viral.
Despite how popular the platform of X has been over the past two decades, it has largely fallen out of public favor recently. Since the website was purchased by Elon Musk in 2022, the changes he’s made to the social media giant have sent many users running. The Guardian reports that between October and December 2024, X lost approximately 2.7 million active users. At the same time, the site’s competitor, Bluesky, gained a whopping 2.5 million new members.
As for why exactly X users are choosing to delete their accounts, The Guardian noted that the platform has allowed hate speech and racist rhetoric to flourish there. And many users report seeing discriminatory content amplified, while progressive posts are buried. Because of this, even many brands and companies have decided to remove themselves from the site, including The Guardian.
Unfortunately, however, choosing to remove a brand from X can be a risky business move. The BBC reported that at the end of 2023, Apple, IBM and Disney paused their advertisements on the website. And Elon Musk even sued Unilever and Mars for “unlawfully agreeing to boycott” his platform. It can be challenging for companies if their fans don’t follow them onto another social media platform though. And X can turn into even more of an echo chamber if everyone who posts progressive content flees. But if you want to avoid all of the chaos, you can always find the best posts from X shared on Instagram, or on lists right here!

What is it with Americans an melatonin? I'm forever seeing Reddit posts from Americans visiting the UK asking if they can get melatonin.
I'd be the upgrade. Parties suck. I'd rather stay at home and watch Once Upon A Time In The West. She'd never lose me then.
I thought he was trying to confirm she's not a relative >.<
The answer to that question is always "no" unless they're showing The Serpent and the Rainbow on the late late movie. In that case, make the popcorn and take the Vivarin.
Okay, I feel seen. I honestly do try, but I fall asleep like ten minutes into nearly every movie...
My (ex) husband did not ask my father for my hand in marriage, nor did I have my father walk me down the aisle. My future husband and I met outside of the closed ceremony doors, had our personal moment together (he cried, I cried), hugged, joined hand, said "let's do this" and walked down the isle together. Very controversial at the time, but I am not, never have been and never will be anybody's property.
In parts of the US midwest forty is pronounced as "farty", four as "far" ( highway farty far) and one "warshes their hairs" not washes their hair. There's more but that's more than enough for now.
U2 at Torhout Werchter (Belgian music festival - now Rock Werchter) in 1982 and 1983. I was blown away!
