Well, more importantly, how do you stop it happening again?

I thought the same on most of the female pictures. Most of them were from what looked like very attractive females, while the male eyes didn't look like they came from mostly attractive specimens.

I got 28/36, which is probably mitigated by the fact that I'm not a native English speaker, that I didn't recognize some words, and that I grew up in South America. Still, some of the looks really confused me.

30/36, had some issues with the words as well and damn those women be flirting with me as well.

I was usually able to narrow it down to either flirting or hostile. I'm fairly confident and optimistic, so flirting it was. Sometimes it's both anyway.

With a dude it seems like you obviously get the $120 (if it's obviously the dog).
which is why he should

29/36 btw. I think I'd be pretty damn good at reading a whole face.
10-25-2015 , 01:02 AM
i hate that these quizzes are always so long. just let me do 10 for god's sake (or at least see my results after 10).
10-25-2015 , 01:03 AM
33/36 and felt pretty confident about all but a few

I usually went for gut feel or tried to imagine what the face as a whole would look like. I felt like I was doing way worse then the 30 I got tbh.

33/36

Weird how often that score is reappearing ITT

That could be it. Definitely not consciously, but I would have probably reacted different if it was a dude.

Yeah. That is my concern. I have to park my car inside the gate so the dog will always have access.

That could work. Having a favour owed could be good in general.

If she wasn't inclined to pay anyway she will much more likely be in the mydogneverdoesthat range imo. This way you can collect if she's cool and don't end up in a bad spot/endless discussion if she's a douche with no intention to pay up anyway.

Also sensible. I would imagine she offers, but my reaction would just be to say don't worry. I'll think about it.

This is actually my worry. I haven't seen the cable, the mechanic just called me. If it happened again I'd be pissed off. The most annoying thing is being without a car for a few days, not the money. I'll have a proper look under the car and see if there are many dangling cables and either tie them up or spray them with something that tastes bad.

I'm a transplant to Washington DC and thus have no tribal loyalty here. Mrs. T bought Redskins tickets at a charity function, so we went this afternoon. Redskins win 31-30 after being behind 24-0 on a perfect fall afternoon. Sometimes, USA#1 gets it right.

Tribal. Nice.

I have been in this child's life for four years, and have never seen her feel shame or bad about anything. I'm probably not exaggerating when saying I don't think I've ever seen her upset about something for more than a minute or two, and its only ever because her every wish and demand is not being met. She is ADHD, behaviorally very similar to how I was at that age. She only gets upset when her sugar consumption/game playing is halted.

There was just a loud very heated exchange between my gf and her two older daughters. Mom was very upset, two other girls (12,18) were very upset, and I quite uncomfortable myself. The 6 year old? Singing and prancing and talking to the others as if nothing has happened.

Other than these kids, I've never been around any since I was one myself. Is that unusual, cause for alarm?
Sounds almost exactly like me when I was a kid. Some of the stories I've heard about myself when I was young make me shudder. I would do horrendous things and not give a **** and I distinctly remember never feel bad for anyone.

As I got older I developed empathy though and started wanting other people to be happy. So I guess she'll just start to develop these things as she gets older. If she doesn't though, then probably get her tested, but I wouldn't worry about it atm.

34/36 on eye test. I expected to do well, so nice to see that confirmed.

I may not be able to recognize faces, but I can read eyes.

This is a good song, but it has one of the more bizarre music videos out there.

I just discovered that the voice to text on my phone works pretty well if I try to sound like a robot.

Rei, I think you're confused on the definition of "good."
10-26-2015 , 01:46 PM
Rei likes all that wacky hipster music iirc. You never see him posting any AC/DC or Van Halen.

There were at least two houses with solar in there. It's hard to tell but it looks like a lot of neighborhoods I've worked in. Could be my work.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good (price doesn't matter) vegetarian restaurant in the downtown LA area? Or in El Paso, Texas?
10-26-2015 , 06:08 PM
Has to be a vegetarian only restaurant? I don't really know about downtown, but I like the couple of Ethiopian places I've been to on Fairfax which isn't too far from downtown LA and Ethiopian places are good for vegetarians.
10-26-2015 , 06:17 PM
I should have clarified, yeah it doesn't have to be strictly vegetarian. She'll be with non-vegetarians so a combo is great! I'll let her know about the Ethiopian places on Fairfax! Thanks! Let me know if you think of any others!

Since durian was brought up earlier in this thread, I thought I'd post this:
