    Most people around me are significantly less me than me.

      I’d be you sometimes if I wasn’t so busy being me. Sometimes it might be cool to be you and not me. Even something as benign as the way your mouth feels when closed,

      do your teeth line up better than mine? Or have you developed a weird way for your jaw to rest due to clipping teeth if you’re not careful.

      Anyways I think it’s my turn to report in on the huddle so bye

    They’re middle-aged, while I’m… blessed with experience.

    Compared to them, I’m broke. My street has 1.8mil+ houses on it. We got a super good deal on this place, it’s getting leased to us at cost.

    We have to drive 10 minutes away to go grocery shopping. Not that there aren’t stores around here, but who wants to pay $8.39 for a box of organic hippy brand cereal?

      I especially hate this for soda. If you end up buying lunch or something at one of those flue flue stores, then you can’t get a regular ol diet coke or similar. You end up having to pay 5x as much for some weirdo branded “cola” that tastes like shit and pretension.

    I’m a foreigner. Most aren’t. I work from home. Most don’t. I drink kava everyday. I doubt anybody else does.

    nothing. I am a very ordinary earthling in a very ordinary and nondescript living area. Everything is very very typical and does not stand out at all.

    I think we’re the only middle aged couple with no kids on this street and adjacent ones. Every couple I’ve seen even remotely near our age when we walk our dog either has children or a pram.

    Did try to make friends with some new neighbours a while back that were roughly our age. Very friendly first chat, they were both enthusiastic about greeting us - they approached us first.

    The first thing they asked was whether we had children, when we said no they were visibly disappointed and seemed to lack interest in furthering the conversation.
