I guess not everybody is as smart as you. Congratulations or something.

Did you have a fever? Could be a bit of delirium.

If you already have a maxed out sharps drawer, then you probably don't actually need any of the knives in this drawer. Like how often do you actually use the pizza cutter? I just cut pizza with a chef knife. Or the egg cutter? How often is that used? Sometimes the answer is to go through all your drawers and see what can be tossed to make space for the things you actually do use.

This might not be what you want to hear, but you're right. People will come and go from your life in ways you don't have any control over. The only person who will never leave you is you. So, be a friend to yourself! You don't have to be your only friend, but once you have a solid foundation of being ok with just yourself, you won't need to depend on others as much. You'll be better able to enjoy their company without worrying about being abandoned. It won't hurt as much when friends leave, whether it's intentional or just a result of changing circumstances. Of course, this is not an easy thing to just do. As others have recommended, a therapist could possibly help you with this.

I've been in the same situation you describe, and it's taken more than a decade (and me having a complete breakdown and him still not leaving me even though I was a complete mess) for me to finally believe it. I'm guessing you may have had someone in your childhood who told you they cared about you, but their actions later revealed they actually didn't. Exploring those feelings - the real abandonment you did experience - can help you heal and separate current and future experiences from the past.

Humans have been eating food for a very long time. There are only so many cooking methods available and we are not creating new fruits or vegetables (unless you count stuff like pink pineapples or pluots or whatever). I think by now we've probably tried every possible combination of ingredients imaginable. Most dishes are already recreations or reinterpretations or fusions of more historical dishes. The only food frontier left is creating new highly processed ingredients, and that's exactly what these meat substitutes are.

Looks a lot like a Thomas Kinkaid painting.

Actually, whether or not you want or need a trust will depend on what state you live in. Some states may try to force probate if you don't have one, but in other states it isn't necessary at all. Just to add more confusion!

I don't go places with people for social validation. I do it because doing those things by myself is incredibly boring.

I'm sure he'll just sue people for not buying it like he's trying to do with his other products.

That's really not true though. I have met so many people who are married that I would never be attracted to! And there are probably loads of people out there who would never be attracted to me or my spouse. The only thing that matters is that we're attracted to each other.

But the fact that you use the phrase "dating successfully" like there's a right way to do it... there isn't. Relationships are messy, and attraction is really only a small part of the whole thing. Stop reading game theory or whatever, that's the real reason you're having a hard time.

Mostly spatial. I can often find a passage in a book by where it was located on the page (I hate audiobooks and ebooks for this reason). I can't remember a lot of my experiences later, unless someone can tell me where I was or what I might have been looking at. I'll probably remember exactly where everyone was standing, but not what any of us said. Sometimes I wonder if I lost my eyesight if I would still be able to make memories at all.

Please don't sabotage random cars or things like the electrical grid that will make innocent people suffer. The enemy lives in the Whitehouse, not down the street from you. And ruining tools only makes it so the next person who uses them injures themselves. I guess if you hate all your coworkers, go for it. Just seems like a good way to get absolutely everyone to turn on each other.
