| Topic | Apparently Owning Property Takes You From The Bottom 10% To The Top 20% |
| Trialia 07/30/19 4:41:15 AM #31 | aDirtyShisno posted... ChaosAzeroth posted...Trialia posted...To me anyone who owns a house is extremely well off, even if it's mortgaged. I've never seen that kind of money in my life. The most I've ever had at one time was about 5500, and that was only because my local authority decided to demolish my old rented apartment & they were obliged to give me a certain amount in compensation (it mainly went on carpets, curtains, bookcases, a used electric wheelchair and a new laptop to replace the one I'd had stolen the previous winter). I have so many "unusual" expenses due to my multiple disabilities; since I really can't work anymore, the government pay me a certain amount in support, & they pay my rent direct, but even if you include all that & look at it as money I get directly, which none of it is, I'm on maybe $12,000/year. (And that wouldn't last me 3 months in the US, my meds would cost that much all by themselves, so let's just not go there.) The only reason I'm as comparatively well off as I am among the underclass is that I get the second tier maximum support because my disabilities are numerous & severe. The highest tier is for people who are bedbound or need 24-hour care. Frankly, I'd trade it for being able to work at least part-time; at 33 being totally out of work can be humiliating, & being dependent on the system makes me a target for abuse & assault from all kinds of people. And even then I owe my local authority 8K for homecare because they were useless about communicating with me in a way I could manage til recently (I struggle with phone calls). So I'm better off than I might be, & our laws about habitable housing help there, but I have no hope of ever being able to own even a crappy apartment. I'm on an assured tenancy, & even that will fold if I can't get more help than I'm getting with keeping my home clean & organised. Also, savings? What are those? I've never had any. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Trialia 07/29/19 9:45:45 PM #26 | To me anyone who owns a house is extremely well off, even if it's mortgaged. At least the last 3 generations of my family have rented, and social housing at that, which means below market rent. And from all my & my aunt's research, I believe my great-grandparents lost one of their toddlers to a nasty childhood accident mainly because they couldn't afford to get a doctor out to him, poor little soul. (Though they might still have lost him, as he caught his baby-frock on fire playing too close to a bonfire, poor kid, & his burns killed him over the course of 3 days. He was only three, and this was before the NHS.) If I sold every single thing I owned, I might just break even at zero. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Trialia 07/28/19 2:36:21 AM #23 | masticatingman posted... Youll occasionally see transwomen on apps like Tinder and Bumble in the female category. They will just go on to say so in their profile. Ive also seen some list out the transsexual gender symbol or whatever without spelling it out. However, obviously, they arent exactly required to say as much up front. Youd hope for their own safety they reveal it quickly if contacted. But yeah, you only see actual transsexual categories on places like Grindr, where its a very accepted thing. Um, wow, no offence meant, but what decade were you born in? "Transsexual" is fairly outdated & is rather upsetting to most trans people, nowadays. I'd avoid it if you dislike making folks uncomfortable or anxious. YMMV but every binary trans person I know prefers either "transgender" or just "trans". (Just as "AFAB" & "AMAB" "assigned [gender] at birth" are replacing "FtM" and "MtF".) --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Topic | How often do you eat fast food? |
| Trialia 07/26/19 7:47:04 AM #27 | Rarely; once a month or so. I like to grab a Filet-o-Fish meal on my way home from my monthly mindfulness meditation psychotherapy sessions, because not only am I usually too tired to make anything to eat after that, I have to miss my usual teatime caregiver visit those days due to the timing, & my nearest McDonald's is right on my way home, so I wind up using far less energy if I just grab something once in a while. If I have to go to Accident & Emergency (our equivalent of the ER) for something, I have a habit of popping into the pizza place across the road from the hospital when I'm done, too, & snagging myself a little 7" Hawaiian. I love their pizza, & I don't often get over to that side of the city anymore - since getting my wheelchair, I wind up having to go to A&E/the ER much less often than I used to, once a year if that - & I figure I deserve a treat & something warm to eat on my way home after an always-lengthy-&-painful hospital trip, especially if it's late & chilly out. Why not? In short, I limit how much fast food I ever eat because, being a wheelchair user, I can do very little exercise of any kind, tire easily, & can't lose whatever weight I gain, thanks to my impaired mobility & overexertion blackouts. It's not that I don't like fast food, I'd willingly eat more of it, if I could exercise! Tl;dr: a few times a year, monthly at most. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |
| Topic | About to go to the supermarket, blasted heat... |
| Trialia 07/26/19 7:26:43 AM #13 | hypnox posted... That is adorable. Here in Texas that is fall temps(sometimes winter too) Bugger "adorable"! Yesterday was the hottest day ever recorded in July, in the UK. Also, you people tend to have AC built into residential properties as a default. We don't. Nor is it at all easy or cheap to acquire, over here. It's like how the train companies are advising against unnecessary rail travel, because the rails are buckling & bending on experiencing temperatures that they're not accustomed to & weren't built to withstand. Just like we aren't. British-born people are mostly not acclimated to weather like this! For my part, I haven't been able to leave the house during daylight for days now, between migraine & blackouts, the latter of which I risk once we get upwards of 25C & even more so above 30, simply because the heat intolerance from my autonomic nervous system dysfunction causes my blood pressure to drop like a stone. The migraines are down to the heat as well - my dark hair absorbs it just as dark clothing would. Couple that with the dramatic barometric pressure changes we've been having scorching heat & sunshine during the day, with humidity plus rain & thunderstorms after dark and I wonder I can even be conscious at all. It's not even as though it cools down very much after dark! Tl;dr, but don't be mean. The UK climate, for centuries, has been relatively temperate, & neither our infrastructure nor our people can easily adjust to this heat. The highest temp. record here til the end of the 20th century was 37.7C. Summer 2003 broke that, & this month has done it again. I'm also supposed to be keeping my weekly supply of liquid morphine at temperatures below 25C, without freezing it - but goodness only knows how I can possibly do that, without the fridge space! *flops limply & goes back to hiding in darkened living room with huge fans & minimal clothing* --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |
| Topic | When you were in school did you ever get an E or F grade? |
| Trialia 07/25/19 12:51:14 PM #27 | Ha, I only just realised I didn't say what subject. History. I actually wound up getting an ABCDE grade spread German, French, Maths, English, & History. I retook my English exam in college & got a higher grade for it. Given that year (2002) was an absolute F-off mess I never want to revisit, between bullying, bulimia, suicide attempts, changing schools, the death of my favourite cat & then the death of my mother, I'm surprised I even did that well. (My mocks the previous year were mostly A grades, apart from maths & physics which were Cs, & that's pretty good going considering my dyscalculia. A to C is considered a "good pass" at GCSE, while D & E grades are passing ones but not usually sufficient to get into a university degree course.) --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |
| Topic | When you were in school did you ever get an E or F grade? |
| Trialia 07/25/19 11:03:54 AM #23 | Mad_Max posted... My mom died my freshman year and I struggled to get through high school. Barely passed. *offers virtual hug* Mine died when I was 16, just a month into my A level course (in the UK); I had to drop out to look after my younger sister, since my alcoholic surviving parent was in no condition to. Back on topic - yes, just one, at GCSE level, and it wasn't really my fault. I changed schools due to bullying in the middle of my exam year, though I'd been trying to persuade my parents to allow it for a while it only actually happened when Mum was genuinely considering homeschooling me after how I'd been treated. Anyway, I switched, but in my part of the UK the schools have set curricula, but can choose from one of two main topics for coursework (the marks count in your exams even though they aren't done in exam conditions). They can also choose to have their kids, for example, do one exam and 2 pieces of coursework for the grades, or 2 exams and 1 piece of coursework. The coursework gets done over the course of the year & sent off to be marked. For me, my previous school had gone the more-exams-than-coursework route, but my new school had gone the other way, and with a very different topic choice. So that trashed my grades for that class. (New school also forgot to put the time of the French oral exams on the general timetable because most of their students weren't taking it, so I missed it and wound up getting a B where I should have had an A.) --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Trialia 07/24/19 1:08:18 AM #35 | captpackrat posted... I prefer "Jesus sandals". They're sort of a cross between flip-flops and sandals. I don't know where you are m, but in the UK we'd call those sandals anyway... it isn't the back, or lack of, that makes the difference in BrEng. Sometimes I just go out barefoot in summer, anyway. I used to do that in the village where I grew up, since the hard surfaces were mostly smooth & warm that time of year & there was a lot of grass; nowadays, with the wheelchair, I simply don't need shoes when it's warm & dry. Though I have been known to go without on wet days too, mainly because my rain cover for me & the chair only goes down to mid-calf, & I'd rather have wet bare feet than wet feet in squelchy gross wet shoes & socks, or flipflops! --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Topic | To those that was on tv |
| Trialia 07/22/19 2:29:11 PM #42 | I've been interviewed at anti-austerity protests a time or two. The most recent time I was on TV, though... I was interviewed by a Brazilian journalist, at the city centre vigil we held the evening following the Manchester Arena bombing, which happened barely a mile from my apartment... A complicated memory, at best. I made a sign to carry that day, and it wound up being photographed by so many people that it's got a wider outreach on the web than I'll ever have. It still feels a bit surreal when I run across it. (The screenshot below is from Coronation Street - someone at ITV must have photographed it too, and I believe they put that screen on at the end of the first episode that aired after the attack - at least one of the victims, Martyn Hett, was a huge fan of the show, and it's filmed locally, so.) https://mobile.twitter.com/itvcorrie/status/867454909616140289/photo/1 Taking it back upbeat a bit, I can actually be seen on the Lacuna Coil concert DVD The 1.19 ShowLive in London, too, in the audience, waving my cane in the air. *g* I do that when I can't wave my arms, & because I was all in black it's the only thing other than my pale face that really shows up. ^_^ I felt kind of awesome about that, since they're probably my favourite band (I have trouble deciding as I'm a multi-genre butterfly). --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Trialia 07/22/19 5:13:16 AM #45 | Funny, US citizens complaining that other people in the world have a viewpoint they don't share. Like that's never happened before. Oh, wait... As for this being "an American website with mostly American users"... Ha. Ha. Hardly. Or where do you think most of that massive cascade of info on PAL region games came from? If people from the US even are a majority on GFAQs - and I do not say only the forums - it's probably not as large a majority as certain members of this thread seem to think. That someone speaks colloquial English, or American English even, does not dictate their nationality. Also, "not from the US" is NOT a synonym for "European". There are plenty of users of this site who are neither yet communicate with other users in English, simply because that's their first or second language and most of the site runs in it. Just ask the Canadians! Seriously, quit making silly assumptions. There are mods who aren't from the States, or there have been, and even if there weren't it's no excuse to make such a US-centric poll knowing that the internet is international. It's easy as pie to do a tiny bit of research when making them, doesn't even take 5 minutes to find out what kinds of ice cream are most common worldwide. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

In the meantime, & otherwise, I game; read (I have a personal library of >4,000 print books); write (poetry, fanfiction & original fiction); code & create websites & graphics for them; do embroidery & mending via hand sewing; draw & colour pictures; sing (choral & other kinds of music); transcribe lyrics & TV episode scripts for a couple of sites I help with; volunteer as a regional representative for my Unitarian congregation; do my physiotherapy & occupational therapy tasks; am learning to quilt & crochet; and various other things, whenever I'm physically & mentally capable of them (& when I'm not, it usually means a lot of lying down and/or sleeping or spending time semi-conscious, or just trying to escape as much pain as I can). What's so "boring" about most of that, for a childfree life? If I want to spend time with kids, goodness knows I have a number of step-niblings, not to mention all my friends' children.

I am raising my eyebrow so high at this poll & its options. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

| Topic | We list games that are glitchy buggy messes |
| Trialia 07/11/19 12:37:02 AM #12 | *sigh* LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean and LEGO Jurassic World. The former has game-breaking glitches as well as platinum-breakers, and the disc edition of the latter liked to crash my entire console, along with randomly pausing whenever the operable character moved into certain loading areas. TT have a lot to answer for on that series! And LEGO The Hobbit, much as I love it, crashed 3 times before I even got as far as Rivendell, one of which was during an FMV. Ridiculous. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |
| Topic | how often do you drink beer? |
| Trialia 07/11/19 12:34:08 AM #7 | Never. I loathe the stuff! I almost never touch alcohol at all - it really doesn't mix well with morphine for the most part - but when I do, it's either white wine, tequila, vodka (with fruit juice, I hate the taste) or fruit liqueurs, and all of those are very rare for me anyway. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

Wish this country had AC as a standard thing in residential buildings, but before the last few years our climate was so temperate we never needed it. Now I practically live in front of a 16" fan, unless I fancy blacking out all the time.

| Topic | How often do you drink soda? |
| Trialia 07/11/19 12:23:41 AM #20 | Not at all. It's sort of a good thing and a bad thing. I haven't been physically able to drink anything carbonated since 2012 - ever since I had my gall bladder out, soda gives me intolerable gas cramps. Like, the kind of cramps that double me in half. ;_; And it's healthier not to drink it anyway, 99 times in 100. So it's sort of good in that way. I do miss downing the odd can of cherry or regular Coca-Cola, Appletiser or lemonade, from time to time, though. And it makes me a more awkward guest to cater for at parties, when I can't drink alcohol with my meds, carbonated anything, or citrus drinks (migraine triggers). There's a hotel bar in my city where the staff were lovely enough to concoct a delightful non-alcoholic cocktail for me, though, as an alternative to always having to drink water or plain fruit juice for cold drinks: pineapple juice, peach syrup & grenadine. Yummy! They don't even charge me extra for it either ;D --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

I've already gone out for a 30 minute walk with the dog, I'll head out again on a short walk (10 minutes or so) to get the mail when it arrives, then again when my UPS package arrives, and then yet another walk with the dog just before sunset. Fairly soon I'm going to do some nude sunbathing for 40-50 minutes, no farmer's tan for me! And some time in the afternoon I'll go out and clean the barn, groom the horse, and pick up the baby goat to make sure he gets some socialization.

I was wearing both my wrist braces when I posted that comment. Makes it more difficult to type than you might think, and besides which, why should I have to take on the burden of proof and of using some of my limited energy to prove your point? You said it, you're the one who should be doing any research needed to prove it. Or maybe just don't post daft comments without having evidence to back them up beforehand. *leaves for physiotherapy, far more useful than arguing with randoms online* --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

Dude, did you even think that it might be answered by people in all different time zones? It's 13.10 for me now. If I'd answered that at, say, 9 this morning I'd have said 6 hours. Instead, because I came home about 15.00 yesterday and haven't been out again since - most of that time being asleep - I had to say 2 hours. Doesn't mean I'm necessarily a shut-in. In fact, I'm just doing my last forum+social media check before I head out for physiotherapy. So there. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

That doesn't do the work of finding actual reliable sources for it. You're the one making the silly and arbitrary claim, you should be the one who has to back it up with actual research.

| Topic | What is your favorite way to ingest caffeine? |
| Trialia 07/08/19 6:28:23 PM #32 | If I'm doing it for the caffeine, hot coffee. Usually a latt, espresso makes my head ache nowadays despite having had an 8-mug-a-day (instant plus sugar & milk) habit during college. I used to take a Thermos of coffee with me to school from about age 14 onwards, too. I got tired of the caffeine withdrawal headaches when I'd miss a mug, I hardly drink coffee at all nowadays. It's mostly tea for me now. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) |

Straight white guys get the most privilege in most places on the planet at present, even though the balance is beginning to shift, but I still know SWM who get beaten up for being disabled in public, so. *shrugs* Personally, I'd pick not to pick. It's among my beliefs that everything contributes to how you grow & your effect on the world & vice versa, whether good or bad, and I wouldn't want the choice, because I would really struggle with it and it would just mean my past life affecting my next one in yet another way.
