One time I made a machine to fix the world but sadly attached the start button to a failed Rube Goldberg device and therefore bungled it

I have a friend who's going to Vegas to get married in a walk-in chapel and all week he's been cancelling plans because he needs to "prepare" and we're all wondering what on earth there is to prepare for

I have a game. What were you "known" for on Twitter?

I'll go first. I'm the woman who caused Dave Ramsey to mass-block Royals Twitter.

I just launched into my usual problems without preamble, it's up to her to keep up and figure it out from context clues

I got switched to a different therapist in the same practice and am wondering if I gotta start all over again or if it can be a Tommy Wiseau "The Room" situation where I just assume a new character will take over the same lines

It's great how when I'm following transit direction, Google Maps keeps defaulting to this view, in case I've forgotten what continent I'm on.

Me and my brother revert to childhood when attempting plans together. He forgot to tell me what state he is in for my upcoming visit, I did not ask how I should get there, and we were both shocked, confused that buying plane tickets three days ahead of time would be expensive.

Love it when short folk ask me to reach something for them from the high shelf in a supermarket. No problem. Not for me, one of God's very own big boys. Maybe while I'm up here you could grab me something from the bottom shelf down there. Doesn't matter what.
