Often when I'm talking to give information, people get something completely different from it. I know how words work, but somehow it turns to garbage between my brain and their ears.
If I am super interested in a book that I got as a gift, I will tear through it in a few days. That being said, I've probably read like 4 adult books since being out of school. Plenty of kids books over the years, (I had mastered Fox in Socks at one point.)
It takes a lot for me to take that much time on a book.
I never played sleepy music until I was a teen, and every night I played Cake - Fashion Nugget. Great, mellow tunes, and I learned ALL the lyrics subliminally!
Ok, I did listen to it awake, so maybe it wasn't completely subliminal, but it's been a while and I bet I could still sing 80% of the album from memory.
I'm watching a lot of old sitcoms and that's a pretty common characteristic. Seems like there's always multiple characters lying and manipulating their loved ones for relatively insignificant reasons. At the end we all have a few laughs and think that's normal.
After it happened she was emotionally devastated, because she SPECIFICALLY ASKED THEM not to make a mess of her outfit. That was a $200 jacket and those stains are NOT coming out with club soda.
What Happened to Edith Finch was one of my favorites that I only played because of their review. I had mostly forgotten everything that was spoiled in the podcast, (except for the bathtub) so it was still great to experience the twists and turns!
