Turning when you’re riding on a jetski and about to be in a head on collision.
Most people will panic and let off the gas to turn, but the jet ski isn’t going to be able to turn much unless you’re actually giving it some throttle.
Saying: “I am sorry.”
It’s easy to be friendly at work. But turning that “work-friend” relationship into a real friendship, one where you do things outside of work together, is still a mystery to me. I have no idea how people do that. Others make it look so easy. I can’t imagine anyone at my job dislikes me, we all compliment each other, laugh at each others’ jokes, and hold fun conversations on the clock. Yet when a crowd gets together after work and plans where to go next, I’m baffled. I’m too anxious to invite myself, but nobody ever invites me, so I just try to ignore it so I don’t feel hurt. :')
Same as any relationship you just ask. Make it easy and do a group drinks after work first then if you hit it off plan something.
I swear as someone who overthinks everything it amazes me I don’t with this and other people do lol
Oh gosh, I was already nervous about asking just one person. Asking a group?! I can feel my soul dying already.
Continuing to give a shit as the entire system collapses.
Teaching (elementary school). It’s my third career and definitely the hardest of the three.
Teaching in general is way harder than most people think
Just getting the kids’ attention is half the battle, and in a crowded classroom that battle’s already lost.
Then add in modern parents that think their disruptive kid can do no wrong…
nothing. most things are easy if you put in the right kind of effort and attention.
but people simple refuse to do it, this making their lives way more difficult than it seems. or they straight up reject instruction and assistance when it’s offered.
Most things. People underestimate the labor, time, complexity, obstacles that most jobs involve. We are wildly optimistic.
Playing the harmonica.
Your mouth cavity forms part of the instrument (like the body of an acoustic guitar) so you need to precisely control your lips, tongue, jaw, etc on top of the usual embouchure skills that you need for a wind instrument, while also being sure to only use the hole/holes you want. You get different notes when you blow and draw (suck), so you must control your breath so the note doesn’t squeak - unless you’re doing that on purpose, which lets you play notes outside the key of that particular harmonica. You also need to balance your in and out breaths so you don’t get too full or empty of air (a few notes have both in and out options to help with this).
I’m very bad at the harmonica.
I have only ever seen one musician who could play the harmonica like a musical instrument. The guy from Sister Sparrow, Jackson Kincheloe. It was such a remarkable difference from the way I’d seen it played.
Great oral exercise.
Asking intelligent questions.

Pulling out apparently
Where would apparently be pulled out from?
Probably a front loading clothes washer.

Yeah you did.
It isn’t that it is hard, it is because it is pointless.
Satisfying the borrow checker.
