Sometimes I Run Through My Followers' Blogs When I Get Bored... I'm Always Disappointed When I See The
Sometimes I run through my followers' blogs when I get bored... I'm always disappointed when I see the same posts between all of them. Is everyone following the same hundred people or something? I just read this post a few minutes ago and oh my gosh these five posts are in the same exact order and everything... maybe I need to do more productive things.

The ending. THE ENDING.
My friend Shermanator555 and I were racing online. (I'm Rosalina, as usual.) I was in the lead for most of the race, and then I lost the lead... and I got desperate... and this happened.
When Smash comes out, he'll have me for lunch.
For some reason I always laugh more at people's reactions to a joke than the joke itself. Even if it's just a really bad pun, sometimes people will groan and I'll laugh hard enough for people to stare. I just find them incredibly amusing; I'm not sure why.
This becomes a huge problem when it's a perverted joke... I struggle to not laugh because I don't like that kind of humor - and I'm not laughing at the joke, just at how others are reacting to it. But I always chuckle or something, which makes me feel bad because people might take it the wrong way.
Even when I tell jokes, it's more for the reactions I'll get than the joke itself. I'm not really a funny person, but I'll try to say something so odd, dumb, or sarcastic that people react in strange ways. Blank stares in particular are my lifeblood.
Why do people try to talk down someone who is offering help? "Oh, you don't have to do that for me." "I don't want you to go through the hassle." "Are you sure you want to?"
I don't think you understand - I wouldn't offer the help if I wasn't completely willing to do it, and I know many people are the same. No tricks, no strings attached; if it's offered to you, then it's okay to accept it.
Yes, there are cases where the person wants to do it alone, but if that's the reason then be honest about it instead of acting like you're trying to preserve my energy or something. Besides, this isn't the case most of the time (in my experience) - for some reason people are legitimately concerned about the person offering help.
You can never know what it truly means to give unless you learn how to receive.
Anyone who says that they're great at communicating but 'people are bad at listening' is confused about how communication works.
