HOT HOT TOPICS
– for a star wars day event this weekend in syracuse, someone scheduled william shatner for an appearance.
– what are valid reasons for pings? don’t @ me
– unbeknownst to you, there is a chance that you have saved a life. could be a stranger, could be somone you know, but your being has likely had an impact on another altering their course.
– if you’re having a total shitshow of a day and your mood is somewhere near the bottom of an arby’s dumpster, is there one thing that can turn it around instantly and make you feel like nothing that happened earlier matters anymore? it could be a person, a food, an activity… anything that makes the world go away in an instant, without fail.
– a masked man in nyc ate an entire container of cheeseballs at union square park. he made flyers for it and had a huge audience
– now that the weather is getting nicer, we are in my favorite time of year: yard sale season. do you have any fun or interesting yard sale stories?
– what quote or saying do people often say, but you believe is complete trash? for me it’s ‘it is what it is’. I also hate it when you open up about something, and someone has to give an example of a time a similar bad thing has happened to them. like it’s a competition.
