Had to choose between finishing a show or starting a new one

Finishing '86' was absolutely the right call, that ending wrecked me for a week. Betty_white39 says it's not that deep, but a good ending changes how you see the whole story. Dropping it halfway would have ruined the whole experience.

My laptop charger blew up in a Chiang Mai cafe and I had to work from a phone for two days

Wait, they actually brought out a fire extinguisher? That's not just a small electrical pop, that's a full-on safety hazard. I'd be checking what brand that charger was so I never buy one.

Looking back at my first freelance logo project in 2017, I was stuck trying to make a complex mark feel modern.

Wait, they paid for four hours of JUST kerning? That's a real line item? I've had clients argue over fifteen minutes on a whole branding project. Four focused hours on spacing between letters sounds like a dream, honestly.

My plumber buddy told me 'you're not selling a service, you're selling a solved problem' and it kinda broke my brain

Ugh, tell me about it. I bought a cheap phone charger once and it literally started smoking. Now I see that extra twenty bucks as a fire safety fee.

My neighbor said my vegetable garden looked 'too neat' to be healthy
