    i actually was reading a thread on reddit where people who worked at escape rooms were telling stories

    apparently tons of people get in there and start tearing shit up looking for clues, rip things off walls, crawling in to air ducts, ripping up floor boards, try to stick keys in electrical sockets, etc etc

    also some couples decide it's a great time to have sex even though the workers there have cameras in all the rooms

    weird job to have

    You misspelled 'because'

    I did one of these recently and they were very emphatic that none of the solutions to the puzzles involve physical force or dismantling anything.

    Also repeated that there were cameras several times in different contexts: "we might offer a clue if we can see in the cameras that you aren't making progress", "we will be able to see on the cameras if anyone is in medical distress", etc.

    I thought that was a bit odd at the time.

    So I've told this story before but when I was a fat little kid, the doctor told me I was going to be short forever because the fat had gotten into my joints and stunted my growth. Now on top of having no medical basis whatsoever, this is a terrible thing to tell an 8 year old.

    I suppose she thought it would scare me into eating less and I'd lose weight, the same way a parent might tell their kid that vegetables will make them grow taller. But the vegetable thing is a transparent lie from your parents, who you have heard lie to you in a similar manner a thousand times. It's also a positive thing. Like, eat this, you will grow bigger. Not If you don't eat this you'll be small forever. A key difference.

    So anyway, my doctor said this thing to me and I cried for days and did not change my diet because I was 8 years old. Later I grew to be a 6'2", teenager still very fat and she died of leukemia so anyway that's how I know that justice exists.

    Shit like this infuriates me. So many fat people have anecdotes about physicians saying things that are wrong and/or insulting about their fatness, and there's empirical evidence that physicians are biased against fat people beyond what might be justified by bona fide medical concern.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    Seriously who goes to Subway

    If you really need to do penance, you should drink

    I do.

    Because my food choices are:

    1)What I bring (95% of my days)
    2)Overpriced cafeteria
    3)Subway

    Yay working in a secure location that takes 10 minutes to get in and out and it isn't worth it to go somewhere else most days.

    it is kind of fascinating how my interactions with doctors changed when i hit 240

    it was slight but very noticeable

    nothing offensive or anything, but just like, little aside comments

    one doctor never said a thing but then printed out my discharge papers and slipped in a definition of obesity in the middle of them

    Allegedly a voice of reason.

    I'm not being paid I just know that at Panera, they believe that good food, food you can feel good about, can bring out the best in all of us. Food served in a warm, welcoming environment, by people who care. To us, that’s good eating and that’s why we’re here. (TM)

    It's a perfectly valid use of the word "deny" and we use it that way all the time.

    It is only weird if we use it in a context where the thing being "denied" isn't something that entity might grant in any circumstance. It's like criticizing you for wearing pants. There's nothing linguistically confusing about the criticism; it's only weird because I'm criticizing something ubiquitous.

    I hope that the whole voter fraud thing that the republicans claim exists results in the creation of a national ID system where every citizen is given free photo identification. That way we can eliminate the nonsense accusations of voter fraud, eliminate one of the major vectors of voter suppression, and eliminate the underclass of people without reasonable identification because they don't drive and cannot afford the time or fees associated with getting an ID. Maybe even cut down substantially on underage drinking/smoking, reduce the burden of the federal government trying to maintain their nightmare patchwork databases, and totally freak out conspiracy theorists. All that with one action.
