Some dude carrying most of a bicycle said hello today and then told me I looked good.
It was nice to hear. Since I don’t want to fuck someone who could very well have been homeless and, judging from the parts of the bike he had was probably on meth, I just said thanks and moved on. Like, I could have taken is a compliment or been like so many insecure jerkoffs and got up in arms about it, but just because you’re straight doesn’t mean a compliment stops feeling good.
There’s raisedbynarcissists on Reddit which is that. Probably one on Lenny too.
