Reply to Titanic is about a woman who completely forgot about her husband of 50+ years and generations of descendants to spend her afterlife with a guy she had a three day fling with on a boat. by TheOnesWhoWander
The Titanic is a movie about a lady who stays single her entire life so she can throw in the ocean a precious jewel she stole to remind herself not to get trapped again in a marriage or on anything that sinks without enough life rafts.
There's also a big boat that sinks.

This is why we move house regularly.
We feel like we have had several ‘different lives’ by moving interstate, then back, then somewhere new.
We do visit and research each area first but the thought of living in the one house all our adult lives blows our minds.
I recently was contacted online by some high school buddies and my then boyfriend ( because they were planning a reunion) and it shocked me that they were all still living there, all these years later, their kids gone to the same schools we did, going to the same church… I guess some folk like that but I think I’d have gone bonkers.
Ten years is the maximum we stay in any area.
Its like the thrill of a new romance when we move, getting to know the new area.

when you eat nothing but ramen noodles and a boiled egg daily since 2019 it feels that way

High-end Japanese toilets have seat warmers. They’ll even play music to help mask the sound of actually going to the bathroom.
And good luck with the whole psychopath thing…

Not necessarily. There are infinite universes in which the monkey simply types, "aaaaa..." forever.

I'm pretty sure they would operate under the same laws of physics, it is after all in the same universe.

Subway still had their $5 footlongs at some locations back then. Not that you're wrong or anything, just 2013 is a lot better than 2016 where every location had stopped selling them altogether.

That's an example that I often use. After having done the same thing over and over again all your life, you are bound to realize that something's gotta give and that's when transformation begins. It's a if we can't even conceive of things being different. Our whole creativity is gone and we're stuck in a rut when a whole universe exists and anything is possible.
