When I use the self checkout at Aldi, I always leave one or two things unscanned. My thinking is that if the store doesn’t pay enough employees to have real checkout lanes open, then I can get away with not paying for a box of wheat thins. Is this normal?

I think the no pillow sleeping submission was me… but for clarification, Erin was right. I start with a pillow, but it always ends up elsewhere, like I just slide off of it. So sometimes, I push it to the side before I even fall asleep. And yes, once in a while it makes my body feel more aligned/better to not sleep with one, because sometimes when it ends up just above or next to my head, my neck and shoulders feel all squished up 😅

I have recurring dreams about my (unrequited) high school crush. Sometimes the dreams are set in high school, sometimes we’re adults, but we’re always a couple in the dreams. Is this normal? (For extra context, we’re both married and I’m pretty confident we wouldn’t actually make a good couple).

203. Underwear Slut
Apr 18, 2024
This week: dating comedians, memory rebuttal, underwear loyalty, kids swearing properly, and pocketing your dog poop.
Rebuttal to the memory rebuttal. Up until my last debit card I purposely did not attempt to remember my debit card number just on the off chance that someone wanted to torture that information out of me and steal my bank account. Basically memorized my most recent one by accident. Is this normal?

Is it normal that once I found a style and make of underwear, I have never bought any other underwear from any other brand? For me, it’s MeUndies’ hipster style. I have about 30 pair. 🤡

When I walk my dog, I make sure to wear something loose-fitting with pockets, so that when I have a bag of dog poop, I can put it in my pocket to carry home. Is this normal? I get a little worried that it’s going to leak in my pocket, but it hasn’t happened so far.
