What are some unexpected things that have occurred during an event or when buying an item or really anything.

I don't know, I just get so overstimulated lately. Last two concerts I had to ask my bf to hold my ears at some point, I just can't anymore. Also like an event ended up being a sleepover, which I di not count on, so that was stressful.

I'm usually more laid-back, but my mental reserve is really low now.

Apparently my phone has a horrifying push notification for Tornado Warnings. Related: We may be having a tornado heading our way.

Do all phones have like... "alert alarms" that will go off? Mine goes off for every fucking reason. If there's a tornado/weather watch warning within like a hundred miles, or if a kid got abducted, it makes me piss myself each time

What's weird is that when we had a tornado warning in town -- a legit warning -- no horrifying push notification. Nothing for a tornado watch either.

Flash flood warning an hour later? Horrifying push notification.

idgi phone!!

You can check and see if you can turn off "emergency alerts" on your phone. It's an option on my Android phone.

Our sirens went off. We are in basement.

Stay safe, neighbor. (Pretty sure we're same state or close).

Thank you. I am in Oklahoma! The storm is over for now with no touch downs (thankfully).

Oh dear, keep safe!

Thanks! Storm is over and nothing actually touched down. I think the forecast is calm from here on out.

Stay safe!

Are you in Oklahoma?* 'Cause I've been watching the coverage of the storms there this evening and...yeesh. Stay safe!

*Obviously, feel free to wait and answer until AFTER the storm has passed your area, of course :p.

I am in Oklahoma! We are now out of the basement. It looks like the worst of the storm is over. We had some rotation but nothing touched down (afiak).

Thank you for the safe wishes.

So glad to hear that. I live in Iowa, so I'm very familiar with those kinds of storms, too :p. They can be pretty scary.

But yeah, you're welcome :). Here's hoping things remain calm for you guys the rest of the night.

I signed up to write fics for the winners of a couple competitions. I've had fun writing them for the most part, and the winners have loved them, which is great. But the last person requested a version of the characters that is really different from mine and makes me a bit uncomfortable to write. I'm way out of my comfort zone here, so I'm struggling with it.

I don't feel like I've ever actually planned on anything in my life I just show up and things happen and I say "yeah ok sure"

Recent case in point: a while ago was basically appointed Official LGBTQ Educator in a class, apparently on the basis of the fact that I am gay and was trying to explain bisexuality to a crying 24 year old ("I just don't understand why we always have to have labels!"). At one point my professor asked me to make a presentation for the class, which she then told me not to give or send to the class (w/o looking at it), which I thought was rude seeing as I did a lot of extra work for her.

Why tho? :/ ugh.

Yeah, it was....really annoying, actually.

"I just wanted to do this so I could put it on my resume, why the fuck are all these elderly white anglo-saxon biddies suddenly inviting me to their boring-ass tea parties where they gossip about their co-workers and bitch about those goshdarned immigrants and homosexuals 'invading' the city?!"
- me, a few years ago, when I started volunteering at the local library

My mom was really good at offering you things you thought were free gifts, only for them to turn out to be favors she was doing for you so that you would owe her a favor in return. I had so many experiences growing up where I'd be like, "Sure, I'll go see a movie with you! [2 hours later] Why aren't we going home? What do you mean, you're taking me to your friend's house to mow her lawn???" (That was something else she loved to do -- "volunteer" me to do things for other people without telling me first, let alone asking me if I wanted to do it.)

That sounds completely obnoxious. Blech.

You aren't wrong!

IP logging on F!S, Case subsequently disclosing IP data with other posters. I signed up for neither of those.

If you were actually signed up, IP logging wouldn't concern you~

What's stopping you from picking up your toys and going back under your bridge?
