inMy uncle told me to ignore the 'birds aren't real' stuff back in 2019, said it was just a joke. Now I see people taking it seriously and I think he was wrong to dismiss it.
Look at what kim_hart7 said about it being a joke, and they're totally right. The whole point was to make fun of wild conspiracy theories. Now some folks missed the memo and actually believe it, which is kind of the funniest part. I saw a guy trying to "de-bird" a park bench with a screwdriver last year, lol. The joke got so big it turned into its own weird thing.

inHonestly, I thought the new park downtown was just for show
My circular saw has been a garage decoration for eight years after one deck board. I call it my most expensive paperweight. At this point I'm just waiting for it to ask for rent money. The guilt is real but so is the hope for a future project that never comes.

inA guy at the nursery told me to use old coffee grounds for my hydrangeas
My hydrangeas in Decatur got root burn from coffee grounds last year. That acid boost can really backfire on some soil types.

inMy sister's kid asked me why I have a sticker over my laptop camera
That's a tough spot. It gets into the idea of consent, which kids get on a playground but not from tech. A school tablet watching them is a condition for using it, not a choice they made. Your sticker is a choice you made for your own device. Explaining that difference, between forced monitoring and personal steps for privacy, is the real challenge.

inA customer in Boise taught me to listen to the quiet noises
Right? Total luck. I saw a guy win big on a scratch-off last week and it was the same thing, just pure chance. Makes you wonder how often that happens, huh?
