I would say, no, because the same magic rule prompting the vampire to ask permission in the first place also requires the answer to be complete. Otherwise, why bother? They would dart inside even before you had a chance to say “you” with the excuse that since you were taking too long you probably were okay with it.

Eyeglasses counts?

A preference for classical music.

I never associated billiards with particularly intelligent people tropes. Chess and books, yeah they get the association.

No smell in dreams for myself but yes sounds, although if being honest most the times the sounds are from voices ( not always).

Visuals are always there, and I don’t say sight because I sometimes see my dreams in 3rd person.

I’ve experienced touch but it’s selective, often more some kind of proprioception while I fall, fly, swim etc.

I’ve tasted things in dreams though, very few times but it’s there.

The ideal schedule for me is one that allows flexibility. How many hours they want? 40? 60? Okay, as long as I’m able to manage the time I’m fine with it. Usually I prefer at least one weekday free.

Painting my grandma’s face with makeup. I thought she didn’t realize I was painting her like a clown with a red nose and all, and I thought it was hilarious. Was always mildly disappointed whenever she took the makeup off before leaving, but I never lost the hope one day she wouldn’t notice and would walk out with it.

Ah fun times.

Not that I remember but apparently when I was 2 yrs old or so I snatched a handful of very expensive wedding cake from a bakery display window while my dad was busy paying at the counter. He noticed when picking me up to leave and godspeed back home because he couldn’t afford paying the now damaged cake.

The first and only thing I remember stealing was a monkey toy when I was 3 or 4 yrs. Went to a party or something at someone’s house, there were other kids there and I decided I deserved that monkey more than they did so I pocketed it. My parents found out afterwards, they weren’t happy about it but didn’t care enough to return the toy to the owner. I guess it was a cheap toy.

TIL I can italicize emojis and I’m gonna try it out right now 😆

Edit: I love it ❤️

Smarts.

I’m not sure if you’re saying my opinion was popular at the time- I’ve never met anyone in person who agreed with me, not then and not now either. Occasionally some people say, “ok, I get what you mean” but they don’t really share my opinion. Most of the times I get “what? Hercules? Such a great movie!”.

And fair enough, I’m not saying it’s a bad movie, simply that I was thoroughly disappointed which isn’t the same. Objectively the art direction is really good, the voice acting and animation is solid, and yes the soundtrack was also objectively good but unfortunately not my type, what can I say. It’s just not a movie for me.

And a loyal husband ha

Disney’s Hercules.

Because it completely butchers greek mythology. Of course, that’s to be expected from a kid’s movie (especially Disney) but I’ve been a greek mythology fan from an early age and this movie really disappointed me as a child.

An idiot

Same where I live. And then you see all the shop windows dressed with fake snow and people buying santa hats when it’s 40⁰C out there and the whole ordeal feels so out of place

Clothes shops aren’t threatened by the Internet but boutique shops are outcompeted by chain retailers. So if you really want a safe business, go for a franchise or whatever you call it where you manage the Reknown Brand shop but don’t own the brand.

Absolutely, you have the possibility of judging the garment quality by touching it, you can see exactly how large it is and, in most cases, you can try it on to make sure it fits you and that you are okay with how it fits. You can’t do any of that online.

I don’t envy you. That’s intense! On the bright side, at least you’re getting used to reality shifting drastically and unexpectedly, which I hope makes you resilient. Rejecting reality as if it had been a dream (which also happened to me) is probably worse in the long run.

Holy cow you woke up to anxiety over a $40k debt. That’s not nice. Interesting to see this happens to other people as well, I never heard in person (at least) about others waking up under normal conditions and not fully realising who they were.

Yeah you bet it was messed. I had a mini panic attack thinking the police were after me, that my life was over, that I was going to rot in jail and I felt so disgusted at myself for taking advantage of those girls. All that in under a minute. And then the wave of relief as I realised who I really was.

Once I had a horrible nightmare in which I was a guy in his 40s and a child predator as well. In the dream I had a red car and was stalking schools looking for teenage girls, offering them a ride.

There were no victims in the dream but woke up so disturbed it took me a whole minute to realize I was, in real life, a woman in her early 20s. It’s by far the most bizarre shit my brain ever dumped on me while asleep. Wtf.

Jungle, rainforest, bush or forest in that order.
