You have freedom to yell "FIRE!" in a crowded theatre. Just as you have freedom to pay for the consequences of that.

My parents never let me outside. All my youth was spend sitting in the front of the screen as I couldn't even go for a walk because they were afraid. I feel it messed me up a lot.

I feel the same as you, only I'm 21. I wasted all my youth, I had opportunities, but I blew them all. All I did was playing video games. I just can't look at myself in the mirror now.

I guess so. Most of the tests I;ve taken at college were the same tasks as in previous years, just with changed numbers. ... or not. That also happened.

It works for some people. I always had more success just gradually stopping. I had massive issue with that, I always tried going cold turkey. Then I just stared to count hours, set high - but still - limits. And over time I found I feel tha

This article felt like a way to lying to oneself. "I'm not lazy, I just want to be myself!". Life is painful. Sorry, that's the truth. If you won't work, someone else WILL and they WILL take your job.

Well, Discord once thought that my message containing a breadboard was nudity. I fully expect similar things to happen here.

USSR was so pivotal in defeating Germany - forgetting that the Second World War broke up because Soviets signed Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, essentially giving Germans free reign.

I disagree. On contrary, if you do follow-ups, the recipient may think you're too pushy and entitled. I'd never dare send follow-up in my university.

My first year of uni was purely online. I nearly failed, I had to switch to a different (but similar) major. I just couldn't do anything, I stared at the screen all day long and I was unable to do anything. Now that we're back, I

Painful to say, but Ryanair is right. Hungarian govt just need more money to buy the voters.
