We toured our office a couple of days before the handover from construction to occupation. Fully finished building (allegedly). We all had to wear hi vis, steel cap boots, long sleeves and hard hats. Completely unnecessary but site rules.
Guess how many people complained? Yep, 0.

My high school did this in the 90s. Worked with the local polytechnic to divert kids who weren't academic into trade qualifications while keeping them at school. It was a RESOUNDING success, without any need for this utter pile of bullshit they're pushing.

I absolutely believe that cats understand the world around them, and what we say to them.
They just choose their responses to it, which don't always? often? align with what we may have asked them to do.
Mine sass me right to my face. You can't do that if you don't understand.

I would pay more tax and my partner less, it more or less evens out across the household (we'd be about $5 poorer which we can totally afford).

I acquired an elderly cat some years ago and we discovered that she recognised smoked salmon packets. Unopened, we took one out of the fridge and she IMMEDIATELY started howling and begging. Someone in her earlier life gave her bougie tastes!

I did it on a whim about six years ago (searching for non dairy alternatives for my partner) and - as someone who can eat dairy no issues - I PREFER it this way. Creamy and rich and :chefskiss:

Nutellex Buttery. (I think it's vegan?) we also add eggs for non vegan option, beat them in quickly like you would for carbonara, but if you don't do egg then the Nutellex is enough. Add a little vege stock if you need liquid.

Proper concert grand piano.
Ridiculously fitted out rooms for my cats - like climbing walls and bougie cat trees and tunnels and cardboard boxes - and someone paid to deal with litter boxes.
I'm not very inventive I guess.

I have clothes in my wardrobe that all fit me the same way and they have eight different size labels on them (admittedly one of those is due to vanity sizing from a plus size brand) and it's such bullshit

My problem with your 'nip is that Bonnie gets THE MAD ZOOMIES and needs to destroy things - ideally Mango - for ten minutes, right as Mango has turned into a drooling mess atop the climber and is profoundly upset by Bonnie messing with his vibes.
It's hilarious as shit but I have to supervise 😂😂

I was mixing your ear worm up with "I'm getting married in the morning" anyway, so my bad all round. (I woke up with that thought and went "oh hey oops".)

Would it work to swap for "Not Getting Married Today" (which personally I prefer)?

Having a broad education and interests outside your field is great! People can be multi faceted and having diverse perspectives rocks.
I'm glad I don't get judged on what I did 20 years ago, I've grown and learned a shitload since then.

My Tiger-bear used to do that and it cracked me up every time. I eventually worked out - after YEARS - that what she wanted was to be little spoon but without the blankets between me and her. Unfortunately for her that was too cold for me so she did not get her way.

I tore my shoulder putting weights away at the gym, not while actually working out. Seven years later it's still at best mildly fucked.

Girls are socialised to discuss issues (if perhaps not always well). Boys are socialised to repress them and when it boils over HOO BOY IT'S ALL ON.
