I’d probably cut them off early to say something like “Oh sweet, I’m into ___ too” and then encourage them to continue. It would be more fun for them to know they’re talking to a fellow enthusiast.

I don’t disagree that adobe software is bloated, but GIMP takes 20-30s to load on every system I’ve ever owned.

The jury doesn’t determine the punishment, only guilt/innocence.

Good luck getting help.

In my experience, abnormal test results aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on for all the good they do. And they rarely explain what’s really wrong either.

You live in Mexico?

I went on a date and I hated it so I never dated again. I’m married now btw

You honestly think New Jersey has mountains like that?
