84 is pretty much the average life expectancy for a man in the US, isn't it? Or at least for wealthy men in the US.

My proposal is to just make them all "fall backs".

Yeah, AM/PM will get inverted after a few years, but imho, that's a small price to pay in exchange for an extra hour of sleep twice a year

I heard that some places just pay out the "spring forward" hour as a good gesture

You not put the question in the post title? You can have more than 12 characters in the title...

Why did...

Wouldn't want to accidentally grab a white kid in blackface /s

with the exception of two brief situationships I was in cus women suck.

This is part of the problem. You're blaming an entire gender because you ended up in situationships.

Even if those two women are 100% at fault, you're not just blaming women, but saying that all women "suck".

women don’t wanna be talked to for more than small talk

This is part of the problem. Why are you talking "to" women and not "with" them? What do these two different phrases ("talking to" and "talking with") look like? There's a huge difference.

Plus getting out is anxiety provoking

This is part of the problem. It's natural for some people to have anxiety. If you have the means, see if this can be treated by a specialist.

But if you interpret all the jokes as "things he wants to do"? Probably pretty good odds

I've heard it's 30%, or whatever the same as Steam is

People assuming I don't keep a clean kitchen and that I wash raw meat under a running faucet.

Most washing is done under a running faucet, no? Or otherwise running water.

I think 1 is inaccurate -- bacteria themselves (not just their excretions) can make you sick.

I think the idea is that the bacteria are supposed to be too cold to multiply and make their excretions by the time you cook the meat (and thus kill them off), so unless the meat is already spoiled, cooking alone would be fine.

Oh damn, that makes a lot more sense. I feel like there should be a different word than "Washing" for that, haha

So, I changed my daily driver to linux several months ago and my gf a few weeks ago.

So, I changed [...] my gf a few weeks ago.

How's the new girlfriend?

I only learned that "Washing" meat was a thing from people saying "Washing your meat is actually bad". I never knew anyone to do this, and it sounds absurd to me.

The "sushi" should be "burrito". That's just one type of sushi, because what I picture when I hear "sushi" would probably be in the "toast" category (if rice counts as the "bread")

I look closely at labels and quantities, etc...but I also look at quality, made-in-my-country-ness, etc.

I don't need anybody to buy my groceries. I might even politely decline because someone could use it more.

The other signs sound spot-on, though.

Oh, that's cool!

Haven't stayed in touch, but generally seems like unskilled labour. The same kind of job they had in high school, but a decade later.

What are the discovery services?

Dr Pepper. And Vanilla Coke!
