Tell that to my mother.

Cheerwine Zero exists. It is a black cherry flavored soda. Idk if it is available outside of the SE USA, where I live. Wikipedia says “It has been produced since 1917, claiming to be ‘the oldest continuing soft drink company still operated by the same family.’” So, maybe less evil? I do know it tastes quite good.

What? That’s not how a lottery ticket machine works. Part of the front has to be scratched off to determine if it is a winner, even with the machine. I know, because I remember having to scratch this part off myself for customers redeeming tickets back when I sold them. (The part the machine needed was along the edge, and many didn’t scratch there.) (This is specific to Tennessee, but I doubt any state used a system where you can tell if it’s a winner without anything being scratched.)

SHHH! Don’t tell Gnome that there are options other than 100% and 200%.

Dayum, god bless America!

I’ve heard electric kettles are slower here because of the limits of our electrical system. I do have a kettle for the stove, though. I also rarely drink tea.

I’m sorry you’re forced to live with her. I’ve been there. You aren’t alone, and you are stronger than you think.

Here’s a prayer/mantra/whatever that has helped me:

“May we be victorious over our fears. May we be happy without hope. May we be of benefit to all.”

You don’t have to be like her. You aren’t her. You are who you are despite her, not because of her.

The value of the ruble. It’s right there in the graph.

That’s what I thought as well! Not the Knoxville one. Must be one of the other locations.

More like Mew-dita, amirite?

That must’ve smelled horrible.

Wouldn’t the whey protein look like that too, up close?

People like you are the reason I was afraid to go to school as a child.

Damn, does he come with them?

Wait wait. What would happen if a long half-strand of DNA tried to pair with another but there was one letter wrong in the middle?

OP didn’t say they were unattracted to them either. And if you saw my advice as anything other than a joke, that’s on you.

Telling someone you are attracted to them and asking them out is not sexual harassment. It might be against workplace rules, but that depends on the workplace. Having consensual sex with someone after a date is also not sexual harassment. It could be seen as “quid pro quo” if one of them is the other’s boss.

If at any point the person asks you to stop and you continue, then that is sexual harassment.

Tell him you feel shy around him because you’re attracted to him, and then ask him out on a date. Either he’ll leave you alone or you’ll get some. Win/win
