  • The symptoms of ADHD happen to be things all people deal with. The inability to pay attention to things, or the restlessness of a quiet room are universal experiences. In that part you are kind of right. However ADHD specifically refers to the actual clinical deficit in executive function representing a chemical difference in the brain. Saying “Everyone has a little ADHD” is just a condescending way to put it. Different people may have different levels of annoyance with the phrase.

    Everyone gets sad, not everyone has depression. Everyone worries, not everyone has General Anxiety Disorder. Everyone has pains sometimes, not everyone has Chronic Pain.

    The sentiment isnt necessarily wrong, and the colloquial meaning still comes across, but it’s just degrading to hear. I hate hearing someone call out a disorder as one of their quirks as much as the next guy, but more than being mildly annoying it can stand to change the perception of the thing in the public consciousness enough that someone that has a disorder might believe they are just making a big deal out of something that “everyone” deals with. Whether intended or not just keep that in mind.

    (TLDR I have ADHD please don’t minimize it by saying stuff like “lol computers destroy attention span”, you’re not wrong, just condescending.)












  • Flavacol is just an artificial butter flavor with salt made into really fine particles. But you are correct, any time you’ve been to any business or place that had a popcorn machine you can pretty well guarantee they are using it.

    I used to make the popcorn at Target and it’s what we used.

    Oh it’s also cheap as shit and the carton will last you forever so just pick some up if you are curious.








  • I just wanted to say thank you for the spoiler. I have arachnophobia though regular spiders only kind of weird me out unless they are like coming at me. But anything even remotely more than that and I wouldn’t be able to handle it. I choose to live my life believing scorpions are fake for example. Anyways, thanks for hiding the scary picture on the internet when you didn’t have to.
