Local hobby shops who want you to support local yet charge scalper prices on product. Pathetic.

Proof. Something I saw at Costco on weekend for $20. $100 at local hobby store. I understand markups and moving volumes but that seemed a bit of a stretch.

Any of these local shops who harp on the "support local" but rape you on price or are giant douche bags when you go in can fuck right off. They are why Amazon is so popular.

"shop local" is the business equivalent of a gofundme request.

Why would I shop local if there is no benefit to me?

I used yall in a sentence here yesterday. I typically use 'you all' in emails as it seems more common with our team in texas

One thing that living down south taught me was I have an aversion to "y'all".

You know those people who rush into being friends with you without taking the time to let it naturally progress? This happens a lot with mutual friends or co-workers where they automatically deem us as "friends" due to similar interests and act like we already broke the ice. It pushes me away to the point I actually start despising the person. I have given those kinds of people the benefit of the doubt thinking they just want to make friends and whatnot, but weird little things they do turn me off. Anyone been in those situations before?

It's weird because it is like the equivalent of "moving too fast" but as friends

[killramos]

Yup. I totally get that.

In general people who try too hard drive me bananas

Stop giving signs that you'll go to third base on first date?

You know, I thought about this as well, perhaps it is something I do that triggers that. But I really don't think so. I don't lead people on if I am not interested. If anything, I am a bit too blunt sometimes and it adds to my annoyance when they don't bugger off.

The worst is when people tell me I should live a little and go out. Yeah, no. I have a life, it's just too short to spend it with you.

Lol, this sounds horrible with no context but as I read over this, I realize how anti-social it looks

[ercchry]

I’m pretty good at no new friends… I don’t reach out first (even to lifelong friends haha) and I sure as shit never follow anyone on any social network
