Thinking about a conversation I was having with an acquaintance years ago. He was a friend of a friend and we were talking about food. I forget the exact phrasing but I brought up loving avocados. He said “what’s that?” I was a bit surprised and explained. He responded “OH thats crazy I thought that was one of those made up words”. The statement was like a flashbang I had to contemplate for a few minutes. PERSONAL STORIES ONLY, DO NOT INCLUDE A STATEMENT FROM A CELEBRITY OR POLITICIAN.

    Was going to the gym for a while back in like 2015 (still do, but I used to too) and was feeling so much better than usual.

    I asked my roommate who was one of my best friends at the time if he’d be interested in coming too as it would probably be really fun and motivating if we went together. Dead serious he hit me with “nah, I don’t wanna get too buff.”

    🤨 WAT

    I think I offended him a bit with my incredulous response. I honestly couldn’t even believe what I heard. Dude was a string bean and would have needed a hard year at the gym to even get remotely “buff”. I was truly dumbfounded.
