Serious question about coworking spaces and introverts

Oh man, "breaks the ice easy" is pretty close but it should be "breaks the ice easily" since it's describing how you're doing the breaking, not the ice itself. I know, I know, I'm that person who notices grammar stuff, sorry. But you're totally right about the coffee order thing @paige_bell81, it works because everyone has an opinion on their coffee and it's super low stakes. Plus you can always follow up by asking if they make it at home or buy it out, gets people talking for a while.

Warning: That "character analysis" post missed the whole point of The Thing

Does the panel where Alicia sees his face and calls him beautiful ever factor into those hot takes?

Tried stacking photos of the moon with my phone and got a hot mess

Tbh stacking phone shots of the moon almost always turns it into a weird blob.

My neighbor's 'distressed' oak table went from looking like it survived a war to a museum piece in about 3 weeks.

Oh goodness, that reminds me of a friend I had years ago. She found this old rocking chair at a garage sale, it looked like it had been left out in the rain for a decade. The varnish was peeling off and there were even a few small cracks in the wood. She decided to take it on as a project, spent about two full weekends just sanding it down by hand. Then she stained it a deep cherry color and put on a clear coat, and I swear when I saw it at her house a month later, you would have thought it was a brand new piece from a fancy store. She admitted her fingers were sore for a week from all that sanding, but she was so proud of how it turned out. Some people just have that eye and the patience to follow through.

Found a cheap way to keep mosquitoes away with a box fan

Wait, have you tried a fan near your bed?
