    Some personal news: Last month, while Davis and I were taking in the beauty of Banff National Park, we decided to nix our original engagement plans, buy cheap rings at a shop in Banff, and propose to one another at Lake Louise. It was unplanned and intimate and perfect ❤️

    Bro, just come skiing with me. Lift tickets cost $150 per day and you can rent skis for another $50 and you can get a lesson for another $120. It’s so fun and your risk of injury is so high. C’mon bro, you won’t feel your hands & you’ll get sunburn on your face. Bro.

    Ending all my meetings by saying "bye ladies!" regardless of the gender of folks in the room. Not sure what the big deal is. I just think that the term ladies, colloquially, is a gender-neutral term.

    I love my fiance, I can't wait to marry him, and I am glad that he wants to be involved in planning our wedding. However, from a project management perspective (e.g., budget, timeline, creating an event that is both legal & possible), I would like to remove him from the project.

    Just listened to my dad try to explain my dissertation to the rest of my family and I now understand why hearsay is inadmissible in court.

    If I ever become pregnant, I'm going to throw a gender reveal party and reveal that gender is a social construct. I will have slides, and there will be a quiz.

    Four years ago, my boyfriend invited me to a weekly competitive crossword game with his NASA engineer colleagues. Every week on Monday nights, I have quietly joined, beat them all by a considerable margin, and left. It has been the highlight of my week every week for years.

    An undergraduate at Caltech just approached me and asked me on a date. I panicked and replied “I’m sorry, I’m old.”

    Replying to @IsabelOakeshott
    This is... a mannequin of an average-sized person wearing clothes that work with their body. Tons of people have this body shape, and that's fine. "Obesity" is a body size--a calculation of weight divided by height--not a disease. And not something to be ashamed of.

    Since no one knows what to get their dad for Christmas, please use this thread to share what you got your dad to give people ideas.
