75% of writing is convincing yourself that your story is worth it
It is. In case you were wondering. Your story is worth the effort you are putting into it. It’s an amazing thing because you are writing it.

I just had this realization that Kit Kats used to be wrapped in foil and have paper labels and I’m reeling that I remembered this and that I lived through the transition to plastic wrappers.

so apparently when my sister and i were little we took golfing classes and we got kicked out after a week. the reason being that the old white male instructor kept calling my 4 year old sister Maria “Mary” after she told him several times that her name is pronounced Maria. anyway, at one point, he tells her “well, that doesn’t matter anymore. you’re in America now.” and that distressed my sister so much that she hit him with her golf club.
that’s not what did the damage, though. what fucked that old dude up is that i saw my sister hit him from where i was standing and i ran over and started beating him with MY golf club. my mom says that i didn’t know what the hell was happening, but i squared up.
that’s why we got kicked out.

how do you get the hat to talk
We had them in my high school here in Australia and let me tell you I wish we didn’t

i’m torn between my feelings about OP’s statement, and my feelings about your school’s officially sponsored raunchy furry artwork
