A meppel leaf! It remind me of Mats Sundin! I never knoo what 'e was going to doo! Glove side! Steek side!


For me, baristas are only annoying when I go into the city. In the suburbs where I live, they're mostly immigrants with accents too thick to be mansplaining anything to anyone.


My pet peeve is going into a store or business with a homemade mask on and being told it's the wrong kind of mask and I have to instead wear a paper cuck mask from China that says right on the label that it doesn't protect against the coof. It's the sort of situation where you realize it's not about public health, it's just about enforcing conformity. I immediately think of every schoolteacher who always assumed I was doing something bad because I was having too much fun. I can't get mad at the front-line people telling me to do this: they're Just Following Orders. But it certainly makes me not want to go back to any business that does that.
 
Role Play wise when I have to drag information out of people who have PM'd saying they want to RP with me. Also when someone PM's me expressing interest yet when I look at their RT everything I like is on their "No" list.
