mindfuckeddd. how the hell?
Initially I was amazed…then I discovered why the computer could get all the answers right, no matter how many times I tried this. The crux is, after the subtraction is done (eg. 25-2-5=18), the answer would always add up to 9 (eg. 1+8=9). And all the gifts tagged with numbers that add up to 9, are the same. Thus, the illusion of...

1. If your throat tickles, scratch your ear. When you were 9, playing your armpit was a cool trick. Now, as an adult, you can still appreciate a good body-based feat, but you’re more discriminating. Take that tickle in your throat; it’s not worth gagging over. Here’s a better way to scratch your itch: “When the nerves in the ear are stimulated, it creates a reflex...

22 years ago, a 16 year old girl was pregnant with a baby of rape. Understanding the circumstances, her parents told her to abort or be disowned. Her best friend-her 18 year old neighbor-although he was not the father, stepped into the father figures shoes. They got married 2 years later. Mom and dad, your love for me and each other GMH.

are you okay?
someonetoldme:
“‘Are you okay?‘ - why do people say it? Does ‘I’m fine’ honestly satisfy you? If so, you don’t mean what you’re asking. I mean, come on, look in my eyes - I’m not okay. You know I’m not okay. And you asking if I’m okay is just reminding me how badly I’m not. I want someone to reach out a little farther than just ‘are you okay?’. Instead of a question, make it a statement. You’re...
