i was in middle school and went to olive garden with my parents. the waiter had one of those voices that…you know, that men in the gay community normally have.

and so they had this soup on the menu i wanted called pasta fagioli that i wasn’t sure how to pronounce and also i had social anxiety

and it didn’t go well

    By far and away calling my friend’s mom retarded when I was a stupid little kid. He was on speaker. If I could pinpoint the exact moment where my life started going off-track, it was then and there. But boy was I upset that his mom wouldn’t let him play guild wars.

    I’m sure she’s forgotten it, and he probably has too, but the moment replays in my head at least once a month.

    At least it was a learning experience. Now I never say anything about anyone that I’m not willing to say to their face.

      When I was around 10 I was invited to hang out to my uncle’s bosses bbq party along with my cousins and the guy’s children where talking about going karting and then the guy says “What would they think if we told them you were under 16 haha” and I just blurted out “they would probably think she’s a mutant”.

      Idk man I was 10 she looked grown up to me but I’m sure I gave that girl identity issues

      18 Years have gone by and I still have flashbacks to that moment
