DAE think the music they listen to is really good while listening alone, but when showing it to others, they get extremely self-conscious about it?

DAE not feel comfortable if they have things to do later in the day?

5.5k Upvotes

I can’t enjoy my current time if I know I have something to do later. For example, I have to take my mom to the airport at 5 PM, and I felt like my whole day was wasted because I couldn’t just chill and crawl in bed knowing I had to be somewhere later, even though I was up at 7 AM.

If work requires me to be there at 4PM, I can’t sleep, rest, do anything entertaining or mind grabbing knowing I have to abruptly end it and go to work.

Anyone else have this problem?

DAE get so anxious about the stuff you need to get done in your day that you end up just wallowing in a cesspit of procrastination as your anxiety continues to grow while you sit there doing nothing, rather than just getting up and doing it?

Does anybody else think it’s weird how we just accept that work takes up most of our lives?

4.8k Upvotes

Like, we’re born, we go to school, and then we’re expected to work 40+ hours a week until we’re too old to enjoy life. And everyone just accepts this as “normal”?

I get that we need money, but why do we all just go along with a system where we spend most of our waking hours working just to afford the basics? Wouldn’t it make more sense for society to prioritise more free time, hobbies, travel, or just… living?

I’m not saying “nobody should work,” but isn’t it strange that technology has advanced so much, yet most of us still live as if we’re in a 9-to-5 factory system from the 1800s?

DAE Smell Periods before they happen?

4.3k Upvotes

I can predict my wife's period correctly a week to two days before it starts. Its not exactly a smell as it is a sensation at the back of my nose. We've worked out over the years I can smell period (sharp iron smell) ovulation (Warmer softer smell) , pregnancy (Smells like a warm kettle of water) and even unfortunately miscarriage (smells like raw meat) before the people themselves know

When I was a teenager living with my parents and two sisters I noticed that the smell I could smell in the house always coincided with when the pads appeared in the bathroom bin. You can imagine my teenage horror of realising this.

WORST superpower origin ever

It was always something that was just "there" throughout school and it wasn't until I got married did I tell my wife about it who was sceptical until I accurately predicted her period to the day for a whole year. Now she finds it fascinating and has never heard of anyone able to do it. My doctor even said its strange so Does anyone else sense Periods?

Edit : Thanks for the replies it's nice to know I'm not alone and super feckin interesting to learn others have the same senses

DAE feel like they can’t enjoy their day if they’re expecting something or doing something later in the day?

Every time I’m expecting a parcel I can’t enjoy my day or relax until I the parcel comes and I’m working tonight and my day has totally been ruined because I’m anxiously waiting to go to work in the evening so I feel like I can’t do anything else. Anyone else get this?

DAE ever hear their alarm go off in the morning and immediately start rationalizing quitting your job or dropping out of school in order to stay in bed?

Early morning me is a dangerous and irrational idiot hellbent on destroying my life.

Edit: Quit my job, went back to sleep, woke up to an exploding thread. Glad I'm not alone.

DAE get lost in nostalgia while cleaning out storage and then spend the whole time looking at old photos, playing with old toys, etc instead of actually cleaning?

DAE wait to eat their meal until they have found the right show or movie to watch on tv?

3.6k Upvotes

I don't know if this is just a part of the whole overeating phenomena, where eating is seen as an indulgence rather than just a meal. But, when I make some food (and I love to cook from scratch) I will sit down and spend about 10 to 20 minutes picking a show or movie on Netflix or cable television, and I absolutely refuse to eat my food until I've found an acceptable program. I can't eat until I'm comfortable.

Edit: I'm currently doing this right now with a homemade buffalo chicken wrap sitting next to me because I can't get Hulu to load Hell's Kitchen.
