Ask thingy for all of the 4's, so 4, 14, 24, 34, and why not 40
OMG SO MANY okay okay i got this - from this list
4. what’s an inside joke you have with your family or friends?
my brother and i have this ANCIENT one from a time we were REALLY small children, and we were playing pretend, and i have no memory of the actual context other than me holding up my hand, pinching air, and asking maniacally, "what about... your CAR KEYS?!"
and to this day, i still mumble "CAR KEYS!?" in that voice to myself when i'm looking for my keys, and if we're going somewhere together, he makes the joke too when he whips out his car keys, and it fucking sends us both in stitches every time to this day.
i think for me it's because he could've... not played along with it? why would he have had imaginary car keys?? who knows but i had them then!! and it was dramatic!!!! and i'm giggling to myself as a write this out because goddamn does this joke still kill me
14. what’s something you’ve always wanted to do but maybe been to scared to do?
oh jeez uhhhh. i don't know if i have any good answers for this one? like with the "share a secret" one...
i suppose one of my bigger fears is confrontation. i'd love to some day be able to go off on someone about shit they do, or be honest with someone instead of just ghosting.
that sounds so lame but sldjfklsjdkfj yeah sure, cutting someone off completely and soundly and not just ghosting them, lol
24. what’s one thing you’re proud of yourself for?
when people don't let me finish talking - that's a big one. i know i speak slowly and i ramble and stuff but god is it frustrating when i'm trying to respond to someone or tell a story and they interject and then just completely blow over whatever it was i was trying to say.
when people start talking to me when i've got headphones on / am clearly listening to something else (old roommate would frequently do this while i was watching videos and i got kinda bitchy about it after a while, oops)
having to repeat the same information over and over to someone
uhhh i think those are the bigger ones??
i've gotten way better at it over the past decade but ripping the seams out of all my clothes - as soon as there's a loose thread, i will play with it, and i will make piles of thread wherever i sit...
downplaying my feelings, isolating when i'm having Moods, avoiding confrontation, ghosting, opening messages and forgetting to respond...
getting passive aggressive instead of clearly stating what i'm frustrated about sldkjfklsdjf
