    This seems like it’s coming from an attractive person who doesn’t understand how easy being attractive makes dating

      Nah, that could easily have a landed as a joke instead of a brain fart. And being funny is about 80-90% as good as being physically attractive.

        I would rather have someone that’s conventionally unattractive and funny than the hottest person in the world with the personality of a wet sponge

            Not even necessarily. Hot enough is hot enough, you don’t stay in a relationship because someone is hot (unless you’re shallow), you stay in because the person inside the body is someone you want to be with. Also one part of maturity is realizing that sex is better with someone who looks fine but is fun to be with than someone who looks great but isn’t

      Except, you know, attractiveness is subjective, and heavily influenced by your personality

      Don’t sell yourself short

      Ask them out the next day? Did everybody forget to function as human beings while I was away?

            I had to send a soulless corporate emai(my first)l to one of my devs who fucked up pretty big. I ran it through copilot and it told me my opening paragraph was to emotional. I’ve worked with the guy for 7 years and been his boss for 3. The email was about accountability and communication which I probably should have sent 2 years ago.

              Just out of curiosity, did you take the edit? You guys have longstanding relationship and genuine human connection is one of the most important things in the world to me, it’s sad to think of corporate perspective being that tightly enforced. Can’t be good for the living, breathing people behind those processes :(

                Yeah I wanted it to be as soulless as possible. If I could I would have yelled at him but being as could as possible was better than being luke warm

                  Think I’d rather get yelled at, thanks for sharing your perspective here at least. I do have further questions re: management by LLM but don’t want to confront you with em, hope your day’s going well

      You just add it to the list of other such numbers, I don’t think you’re supposed to do anything with them. They’re probably used as random seeds or something.

    I mean it’s probably true, if you can take care of a ton of plants, your place is obviously well maintained. Plants are hard af, Ive failed at every attempt. If someone complimented my air, I would be ecstatic

      I figured, I’d get one of those standard issue succulents, because they’re supposed to be easy to care for, and now it decided to grow a 30 cm stalk, when the rest of the plant is just 5 cm tall.

      Like, what the hell, dude. Am I supposed to cut it off? I don’t even know what kind of succulent it is, so I can’t look it up either. I’ve just been letting it grow and hoping that it doesn’t entwine my whole place. 🫠

        You can get plant ID apps on mobile. If it’s leggy, it probably is trying to find sun. You can prune/trim it, even propogate, just need to make sure you look up how that works.

        That sometimes happens if you water em too much, they hardly need any. Like drops per month if that. You can trim the stalk back if you don’t like it, kinda want to see the plant

    Real talk, if you have to fake it with your significant other, maybe you should rethink things.

    I’m glad I can be my normal goofy self with my wife.

    Wherever you land on a 1-10 scale of attractiveness you’ll get about +2 to +3 if you’re funny.

      Having a lot of plants in your house is also a +2 or +3. That’s how Poison Ivy seduces people.

    Nothing about this is strange. Oh, someone made a weird comment about my oxygen content! Oh, maybe that person thinks I have real plants in my place!? What do? Fuck that person. Literally, have sex with them.
