    RetiredAccount Big Time Stuntin Like My Daddy

    Jul 11, 2020
    Lol so until this year I never knew I had allergies. I always thought it was normal to get sniffly walking around outside in the spring and summer and just thought it was a part of life. Literally blew my mind when I realized that it was allergies. I made it to 21 not knowing that’s what was always bothering me.

    Anybody else have any experiences like this?

    When I was like 5 or 6 years old at a holiday party, I was offered a piece of cheese cake. I had no idea what cheesecake was and I said no. I wasn’t really feeling that great, my stomach was messed up, but someone insisted I try it. So I took a bite, hated it, and went to bed shortly after. I woke up early the next day and instantly threw up. I threw up all day. Any time I saw cheesecake for the next 20 years I instantly felt sick to my stomach. I avoided that s--- like the plague.

    Then one day a few years ago, I mistakenly took a bite of cheesecake and was blown away at how delicious it was. For 20 years I had no idea how f---ing amazing cheesecake tasted smh. Now I eat that s--- every chance I get.

    73,000 in the USA decided it was a good idea to trade an hour of their lives time to buy a NAV album.

    Nothing life changing but finding out the Medici family was black, and just getting a better contextual idea over medival European history is pretty illuminating. Makes me look at history a lot differently. The idea of the “average European” a millennia ago is almost as diverse as the “average American” now.

    Didn't realize until very recently that Michael Mando (Nacho in better call Saul) played the main villain Vaas in one of my favorite games Far Cry 3. Extra stupidity points because his character looks exactly like him...
