Aaaaand this is why I ham up my difficulties speaking here and just sign the credit card slip and take the pizza/food/package and run back into my apartment.

That’s normally what I do, too. But that’s easier said than done when he’s too distracted, fumbling with the zipper on the thermal pizza bag, like he’s never seen one before. I’m just standing there, uncomfortable and dying to escape the bizarre awkwardness. 🫤

My ordering pizza days are over. Never again.

Lmao!

I didn’t know I was going to wake up this morning to round two Lol!!

I bet when dude got back in the car, his own pants zipper came down smoother than butter on a hot biscuit. Ain’t no fumbling when he’s got your thighs on replay in his head… meanwhile with somebody else’s breadsticks just sittin there in the passenger seat like “I ain’t part of this mess.” LMFAO!

Dude saw a snack when you opened the door, CG. He served you a pizza while you served thighs with a side of sweatshirt causing him to go to his car to toss his own dough LOL!!!!

How’d you know he was still out there? Lol

You have difficulty speaking English in America?

Well, at least I came back during an exciting time.

Lmao! CG makes this board exciting because her goofy ass is funny as hell. What’s funny is she’s serious. I swear if she left, the song thread and word thread would be the only threads poppin on here.

lol
OMG! You are absolutely awful, Phrozen! Just know I’m judging you so hard right now. HILARIOUS!

There’s a camera on our doorbell, and the bright light on our garage comes on when it senses movement. So, I could see him on my phone which is connected to the camera. His windows weren’t tinted or anything so I could see him just sitting there. And it was totally obvious what he was in there doing.

I’m not sure what you mean, Xant. I literally said hi and that was it. He didn’t say anything to me after that — just complete silence while he stared me up and down like I was on a menu. I just stood there silent, trying to avoid making it worse, which is how I understood your post about “hamming it up”?

Hahaha! I’m glad I make you laugh. Honestly, I’m not even trying to be funny. I just talk/post and it somehow comes out that way? I do love making people smile, though, so I’ll take it! :p

Well, you sure as hell had pizza delivery dude smiling last night LOL!!

For real though, you know I’m messing with you, like I do most folks on here. You do keep me on here cracking up though, CG. Lol

Haha you got me over here cracking the hell up. You are funny as shit.

Lol! For real though, I’ve never been to Minnesota, but I’m always hearing on the news how cold it is up there. But when pizza delivery dude peeped CG, he thought he stepped straight into a sauna and forgot all about the snow LOL!

GC thank you for ending the year with laughs like this via CG Lol.

Hahahaha! You are too much, Phrozen.

WIFLSRN: Has anyone seen “Mufasa: The Lion King”? My kids want to see it so we’re going to see it now.

CG, your sense of humor and you laughing with me at my jokes about you is beyond reproach. Most folks would get mad. You’re my favorite GCer for that reason. Thanks for the laughs Lol!

I don’t like Disney movies. The movie selection this holiday season is horrible.

Hey Xant! You've been a bit quiet on Facebook too, but I did see that you got married and moved to Japan! Congrats!

Let me know what you think! I want to see it. I saw previews! We might go tomorrow night.

Well, since Japanese is my third language and definitely my weakest, I sometimes take advantage of the fact that I'm an expat and use a lot of "Oh... hmmm... sorry... I don't understand..." and a lot of other filler words and smiling, nodding and saying "Ah yes, uh-huh, I understand." (I do not.) Foreigners can get away with more social faux pas because of either language ability and/or not being raised in the culture and missing unwritten rules.

Thanks! Yeah I do a lot more watching than posting on Facebook, something I learned a while ago from posting a few things that people took issue with. Generally I do try to update when I feel like I have something to say, but I don't want to turn my friend's feeds into those terrible "Here's 10 reasons why Japan is living IN THE FUTURE!" videos. (We aren't. People still use fax machines and paper records at city and local offices.)

Living here is just like living anywhere that isn't your home country (or even your own country depending on how varied it is). There are cool things, less than cool things, some things that make more sense than how we do it in the US and somethings that feel completely backwards.

If you do move somewhere that isn't your home country, please do really try and learn the local language. Being a mostly functional adult that is now functionally illiterate is the best way to experience neurodivergence I've found.

Alright, I'll get off my soapbox now, lol.

Did y’all see the news about the subway incident a few days ago where some nutcase set a woman on fire while she was sleeping? Crazy!
