“I choose ham over water.”
“I think that’s the right choice in this case.” -
Perfectionism isn’t high standards. It’s fear of being seen imperfect.
Where in your life are you playing small to avoid vulnerability?

A real conversation with my wife:
Me: Wow, it's wild that Modern Family aired for so longs. Over a decade is a long time for a sitcom.
Mrs. MDMRN: Yea, it feels like a long time for a half hour sitcom. Hour long ones tend to last longer.
Me: What hour long sitcom are you thinking about? I can't think of any offhand.
Mrs: Grey's Anatomy
Me: That's not a sitcom.
Mrs: Well, I'm laughing while watching it.Burn.

The kids are all right.

Me: Wow. I...I caught us up on laundry. I don't think I've been able to do that since we had kids. It feels really weird.
Mrs: (Kicks off her socks and tosses them in the hamper) Feels weird? Here you go, now you aren't caught up anymore. -

This was a real conversation I had at Thanksgiving with my recently married brother (Bro A) and his wife (Mrs A).
Bro A: Beard looks good
Me: Thanks, it was even thicker than this before your wedding, but I trimmed it back to make sure it looked good.
Bro A: Oh?
Me: (Shows him and his wife the picture of my beard then)
Mrs A: (Widely smiling) That looked good, really good on you
Mrs A: (Turning to at Bro A and touching his face) You should grow your beard out like that
Bro A: What? No.
Mrs A: (Nodding aggressively) Yes, very yes. -

Actual conversation from @gnitro's #Discord discussing #GIdle & Soyeon:
Nitro: It just sucks when she does the whole nasal crap... just be normal
Me: She can do it without being nasally. We have years of stuff from (G)I-DLE, her with #KDA, her guesting on other people's tracks (ex. Hyo) where she doesn't do it and it's great. Like...did she just finish binging #TheNanny & thought - yes, I want this voice now.Tags: #KPop #Music #Silly #RealConversations

MDMRNia: At school they constantly say we need to have good passwords online that are hard to guess.
Me: Yea, that's true.
MDMRNia: But then after saying not to just use a random word followed by a few numbers as a password, hat's what the school gives us. What's the word for saying to do something then doing something else?
Me: Hypocrisy
MDMRNia: Yea, that. That's the schoolNo one is safe from MDMRNia calling you out.

#RealConversations with my 6-yo…
“My breadstick has a fat butt.”
“Lewis! Breadsticks don’t have butts!”

"What does your wife think about you being #bisexual and dating men?"
Umm, I'm not dating men. I'm monogamous. I'm not in a relationship with a woman AND a man; I'm just ~attracted~ to women and men. Polygamy and polyamory are separate subjects.
"But, what about your urges?"
Urges? To what - have sex? Sorry - we queers are no different than straights when it comes to sex drive. If anything, some of us naturally have LESS of one.
