I woke up in the middle of the night. My heart was racing and I could hear my heart beating loudly in my ears
Amber Diva Happens to me when I have a nightmare
E. Writer I was in too much of a stupor to function.
Every year at least a hundred kids stop by to trick or treat. We sit a table out with aluminum trays. We use an honor system. The kids can take one pre-made bag of candy. Sometimes we see a kid take 2. I never assume the worst. There might be a sick or younger sibling at home. Or a sibling too old to trick or treat. The kids know this house. Every year the crowd gets bigger and bigger. We used to keep the table at the end of my driveway until 3 years ago, some men jumped out of a car and stole everything. We only put so much out at a time. But I felt hurt that they stole something I was giving away for free. And that they stole from neighborhood kids.
Amber Diva Wow some grown men did something so low …. Smh
E. Writer Yeah, we've done it for years without issue. The kids were always honest. Guess the wrong person drove by one day. So now we keep it right next to the door instead of in our driveway.
I saw this today. The answers surrounding it was interesting.
M. C. Ryder Road 2! I'm disappointed no path leads to a wolf lol.
Amber Diva You’re doomed no matter which
One you took. I’ll try road 3.
E. Writer Right! Interesting. I think they went with the most dangerous animals out there. I'd turn back. And if there's a wolf behind me, I can outrun 5.
E. Writer Amber, 3 is good as long as you don't look at it or show disrespect by smiling (showing teeth) lol
E. Writer Andrew,adorable video. But bears scare me more than any animal on earth. You can't always outrun them because they are fast. They climb. They crawl into small spaces and windows, and they break doors in when they want b

Amber Diva Okay I’m waiting 😄
E. Writer You are probably much better in Greek than I am in Chinese. So much of this language is buried in context and subtext that you have to simultaneously pick up which words are spoken, and analyze what they mean based on the inflection (tones) and how what is being said is used in the sentence. One word can mean five completely different things. The words are spoken like there isn't a pause between each words. This video is a hilarious take on how Asian languages sound. I understood every word he said in Chinese but it was still nonsensical random words https://youtube.com/shorts/ArH6vTx-Bog?is=12S9DCLc3JeZfXuB
Alex Morton Hilarious! The first time I was in Taiwan, I was a t dinner with my agent who was from Hong Kong where they speak Cantonese, while in Taiwan, it's Mandarin. He demonstrated both and then had me in stitches with an imitation of someone French trying to speak both languages. Two drinks later, we tried to get through the rest of the meal with both of us trying to speak only (very poor) French. We were laughing so hard the waitress kept coming to our table to shush us.
E. Writer Lol Cantonese and Mandarin have some similarities. You can learn Cantonese somewhat easily if you understand Mandarin. Cantonese has more tones.
Alex Morton When I once asked one of my programmers, Jim Wong, to repeat something technical he was explaining that I didn't understand, he said, with a bit of snark, "Do you want me to sing it in Cantonese for you?"
E. Writer Code amd in Cantonese is a double whammy
