Myself. Because if I actually was dressing for others I would be taking a lot more objection to looking like a fashionably challenged (albeit very comfortable) hobo at all times, but I dont care about it

Early 20s. There isnt too much of a difference but any wounds I do get now take longer to heal than I remember and the scars stay for somewhat longer too. I could recieve the most cartoonishly outrageous injuries as a kid and in upto a year or so there would be little to no sign of them ever happening but now Im here collecting scars like a whale collects barnacles since they dont go away as fast.

I can mimic sounds and voices almost perfectly after hearing them a couple of times. Although as a kid i mostly just did do that to troll people, it did prove useful exactly once when me and a bunch of people i was with were at a forest edge and were gonna get attacked by a troop of monkeys so I barked to scare them off (they often had dogs patrolling that area that the monkeys were afraid of) The monkeys ran away but it was equal parts funny and embarassing to have to explain to these people I barely knew what that even was since I had never told them that i could do that

How do I leave a 50/50 downvote and upvote for this lol. The downvote is for that banger of an opening sentence and the upvote is in agreement to those kinds of public speakers being annoying.

“What I think she was trying to say is that- 🤓☝️” Stop trying to put words in my mouth or speak on my behalf when I am right here to put my point across to everyone.

That followed by those public event speakers that brush off the first round of goodmornings and then say “SAy iT lOuDeR! wHeRes yOuR eNeRgY! DIdNt yOu aLl eAt bReAkfAst?! 🤪” Idk what it is about hearing this sentence early in the morning that inspires so much hatred in me. You could have the most riveting, inspiring and thought provoking presentation in the world and have done lots of commendable deeds but if that string of words exits mouth before showing all of it, I automatically dislike you and whatever you have to say next.

In life in general honestly. But honestly overworking is far more likely to burn me out rather than actually achieve anything groundbreaking so Id rather just work within my limits and only as much as im required to do at any given time instead of trying to strive for anything far too good that I will probably never even reach.

Very. I dont just use em dashes but also tend to write in a way that gets mistaken for AI a bit too much for my liking. In the worst of cases, I have watched AI detection softwares flag my assignments as “high likelihood of being AI generated” despite me not even having used AI for them. Before Chatgpt was mainstream, professors thought that my writing sounded well versed, elonquent and professional, now I just get slapped with an accusation of using AI when I actually didnt.

Authenticity, depth and integrity. Someone who isnt performative to please me and who I dont have to perform to please either. They wont force me into a role or idolize me yet we should still be able to like and appreciate each other as people of our own. Plus someone who I genuinely find physically attractive because I rarely find men who are attractive to me by my standards so until I find someone like that I dont even wanna try dating.
