Oh my god, this one hits hard. The smell of bacon being fried in a skillet STILL gives me memories of when dad would fix some because he was up super early and needed something to do.

Ayyy, sleep deprivation buddy! I’ve been up since 5 AM and feel like absolute death. :)

Thankfully breaking a bone. The only time I broke one was back in the summer of 1999 on the way out to the car with my family, I think we were headed into town for something when I slipped on our porch and fell weird. As my parents supported me down to the car, out of instinct I put weight on my broken leg.

I can still remember the loss of absolutely everything else, my mind was just flooded with that agony.

Ayyyy, fellow Jets enjoyer!

I adore the little Spongegar Lemmies.

Arby’s curly fries are peak fast food fries.

I’m on the humans-don’t-have-free-will-train

Genuinely curious about this; could you explain that train of thought to me?

This might be relevant!

I work for a fairly big university and we still ask (or at least we did pre-COVID, when I handled some recruitment stuff). And it has to be, like… two references from two different positions (or classes or whatever)? Again, unless something changed.

References are hard as shit to get ahold of, too. I could pay off all my debts if I had a nickel for every time I had to get recruitment to nab us more refs.
