They use it similar to "rascal"

Sadly almost all these comments are wrong. I work in a computer shop and we see the scam you're talking about all the time. It happened because you unknowingly opened an ad. So you clicked on a button that looked legitimate like "download" or "next" or whatever, and that pops up full screen. The fix is a good ad blocker like ublock origin. Google's being a piece of shit right now about ad blockers so I recommend something Firefox-based for effective ad blocking.

I truly mean no disrespect; no one can be good at everything. But if this is the vocabulary you use to describe the object and the problem, it's probably best to call a pro.

If you're autistic, there's a good chance that autistic masking is the root cause here. If you have social anxiety especially, your mask will kick in automatically (subconsciously) and come off as fake to most people, and they will not like you for it. A quick test for this is, are you good at making a good first impression or short time of friendship and then it kinda falls off with time? If yes, masking is likely in play. I highly recommend the book Unmasking Autism even if you're not autistic. It applies to others as well and it is excellent.

The short term (maybe long term..?) solution is to make autistic friends. They'll understand "the weird" and it should be much simpler. Try searching around your local area for autism or neurodivergent clubs and see how you feel around other similarly-minded people.

I live in a high altitude area. It gets very hot. People will say that it's because we're "closer to the sun" as if the ~6000ft/~1800m difference is what matters vs the 93,000,000mi/150,000,000km distance to the sun is affected by something so small.

The difference is the lack of atmosphere to soften the various types of light from the sun.

Destiny 2 should be in that list. It's all meta builds.

I'll also mention the opposite. I got back into Rocket League. I originally had about 300hrs in it and stopped playing for a couple years. I have put maybe another 30hrs in since coming back and it's exactly as I left it. Maybe a couple menus have changed but it was very simple to get back into.

Feels like a buddy prank to me. Do you have any friends that joke like this?

I'm not a gastroenterologist, but I do believe when you have an o-ring issue you specifically do shit your pants.

Why do you think they call it a "blow" hole?
