glad I have such dainty small hands, I guess. I actually had a date make a similar complaint about women's knuckles and compliment my hands.

Oh no... my right hand ring size has been 7.5 since my teens, but Google says average is a 6. Guess I'm an abomination. Nothing looks big though, always had slim hands.

Yeah, a guy being that concerned and actually comparing and complementing it would be a red flag so fast. What other little things would he get petty and nitpicky over...

I would certainly never bring it up to said woman, in polite conversation or otherwise. It's not even necessarily a deal breaker... but man, we gotta deduct some points if there's these oddly bulbous finger knuckles. No choice.

I’ve never once noticed this

I have also never noticed this. Usually my eyes are focused on other things other than the knuckles.

All this SoCal heat in October. Currently dealing with Santa Ana winds that should die down hopefully tomorrow night

When you see it, you'll know. It is actually pretty rare.

I found out that TWO of my students have cancer. 16-year old kids. Horrible.

Since I don't want to double post in the thread I created. I haven't felt more like the title character of this movie that is celebrating its 75th anniversary. I know she's having a dream, but I've also had enough nonsense. Plus, I also feel lost and I didn't listen to advice I gave myself. I'm in a bad situation and still stuck in a world of nonsense.

The news is so toxic for my brain. It's not funny.

An awful lot of that flowing lately.

my mother needed to get x-rays, and she just got the bill. $400 but her insurance only covers $93 of the cost. The rest is on her for out of pocket.

Wow, they really think covering less than a quarter of it is acceptable?

Was in one of my accounts today that has an issue with shoplifters. Two others right near it do, too, so I assume it's prob a cruddy community issue from across the main road.

Saw a couple in there looking at something in another aisle that just gave off the likely sleazy/possible shoplifter vibes. Wasn't surprised I saw them choose to come down my aisle upon leaving, shoplifters love to throw the trash into my dept. Irritates me to no end and I bet this pair are some of the common culprits. With me there they, however, did not. But watched them continue on down the candy aisle in the direction of the front and sure enough the asshole tossed the boxes that were in his hands into the back of an empty space on a shelf. Glanced at it as I was leaving the store, knowing they were going to be open -- they were.

Here's the kicker: it was two boxes of male fertility tests. Wtf. Bad enough when people are stealing condoms, but at least THOSE idiots are trying to not reproduce. But these two? I hope they're both sterile, because the LAST thing they need to be doing is having kids! People are serious pieces of work, those two esp need to just gtfo off the planet and spare any would-be kid from dealing with them.
