I spent years being sleep-deprived due to a sleep apnea chronic snorer on the other half of the bed. I feel for you and hope you get some good sleep soon!

Baseball >> American football. Baseball is much more American and more entertaining than football. If I had to pick a sport to watch that wasn't a motorsport, it would absolutely be baseball. I'll always miss the stupid Metrodome "We like it here"

I don't know how people enjoy football. You sit through commercials of hair loss treatments, dick pills, and gambling ads, and then you get maybe a minute of action. Somehow it's even worse to see in person.

Baseball is fun to play, but I've never watched it on TV. The pro games can get crazy long, I know there was a game once that was like 30+ innings or something.

>palmistshouse: Yes! That was one of my favorite things, the possibility of a long game. THEY hate you and America and they introduced the manfred man (zombie runner) to prevent this: in extra innings, there's automatically a runner on second. Disgusting! I watched the Astros-Mariners 18 inning game. At inning 12 I drove to see a movie, when I came out it was still going!

@ Oscarspage, similar thing happened to my dad and uncle when they were younger. Went to see a local game, it lasted until dark and they ended up just going home because it wasn't worth it to be there anymore.

I only follow baseball as a whole closely enough to know the most famous players and most of the controversies, but I do keep up with my local team (the Twins). Love baseball season. I think it's the only sport where you can eat during the game, so it's my kinda thing. Will never not be impressed by how fluidly those guys let sunflower seeds fall out of their mouths.

baseball's cool. i mean, it's fun. i like playing it (well, i used to, i can't now) and watching people i know play it, more than i like watching it on TV. i find professionals -- in all fields -- to be boring

I used to work at a gym many lifetimes ago and cleaning the men’s restroom was the worst!!!!! Some people genuinely do not know how to use the toilet correctly.

Shitbox cars, my favorite! Tab sends me shitboxes they find all the time, and I send them honda fit stuff :p
Really fascinating bit about the unmade beds part… I’d never thought of that before. I’m 24 and haven’t made my bed since I was maybe 7 or 8 years old lmao.
fire i actually few weeks ago just started sometimes making my bed for first time in ages cuz i want that kind of autonomy with little in return
okay good I thought it was something everybody did for some reason and I was just an ultra slob
Mind u everyone here's prolly on the bottom end of a curve, shit like Neocities congregates weird people
My favorite writer dropping peak once again. Also idk if this helps with the bed-making survey but I'm unfortunately a pretty diligent bed-maker. Sometimes I feel too neurotic and rigid to see myself as a real creative or some shit. Congrats on surviving life on that boat!
For some reason I used to make my bed before getting into bed at night. Now I just do it in the morning. It does help me start the day
