“It’S JuSt GeNeTIcs!” Me at 25 and me at 29 Your diet and lifestyle have a lot of impact on how you look & age - I was in high school in 2003: - nobody was allowed to wear hats in school, and girls wouldn’t anyway - wheelies were for babies, and peaked later - tucking jeans into Uggs?! Like that??? No - nobody would stand around staring at music players next to friends. Literally nothingSpend a day in 2003! Time Cut is NOW PLAYING.

- How much of the decline in children's physical fitness is because kid sports are so serious now that it drives out all sane people?
- Hey, let’s solve two problems at once. We should start a camp in the desert for juvenile delinquents and make them dig holes every single day in the hot sun to build character.

I don’t think the chauffeur, for example, has one.” Reminds me of this.She explained the White people's hate against India and Indians so beautifully
00:00 - I’m getting training telling me not to say “alcoholic”, say “person with an alcohol use disorder.” 😐 Guys, “alcoholic” *is* the nice word. “Drunk” or “lush” or “booze hound” would be the stigmatizing terms, and you can’t replace one word with five and expect it to catch on.
- This entire situation could have been solved or avoided entirely by having one single awkward conversation. People are so afraid of what they'll find out that they live with their assumptions until it's too late.
- I don’t know why this needs so much repeating, but the skin on your hands is already the barrier between your immune system and germs. You can touch disgusting things, spread germs everywhere, and be totally fine as long as you wash your hands before making food and eating.What do you feel about this?
