  • A few things, I’m autistic and it takes a lot of effort when talking to people especially new people for me to process how I need to talk so that the things I want to say are understood. When I drank I spoke as though I were talking to myself without all the translation process.

    So in one way you could say I spoke more “true” when drunk, however the conversation would not be understood in the way I had intended.

    Another thing how many people have professed their love and devotion for you while drunk only to stab you in the back while sober?

    Lol, considering I heard it all the time growing up in the 80s you might be a bit off on your assessment.

    I grew up in a middle class suburb where the it was used as an insult kinda like " poor people are poor because they are stupid"

    She grew up in the Ozarks and they used it more as a " we got ways to make do"

    I’m not saying it is the case in your situation but sometimes very old appliances are so inefficient that it makes sense to replace them on energy savings alone, we had a fridge that I put a meter on to see what it cost us to run, it was a little over $100 more per year then the larger one I was thinking of buying So if this new one lasts 10 years or so it will have paid for itself.
