Like more vertical height in torso, not just long legs. Lots of room between crotch and natural waist. I am like that, but tall clothing seems to think tall women are short women on stilts. I do not need more inseam, I need higher rise because I'm long waisted.

Can confirm. Am same 5'9".

Like there are two measuring systems. One for guys that rounds up by a few inches. What also is funny is I am keeping my height better than my husband (yoga really rocks for that), but he is always taller than me in his mind, and probably always will be.

That's our winter temperature, I would be putting on a sweater at 17!

And yeah I'm sure it's mostly that we become adapted to where we grow up. It IS hotter here than it used to be, too. Not so much the winters, which have often (not always) been mild historically and the cold snaps are sometimes colder than they used to be too. Double-tap freeze this year killed my newly planted garden. Yuck.

I grew up in Florida without A/C so am adapted, I looked and this would be a balmy spring day here, not hot at all, but WTF? If you live where it's usually cool why isn't everyone adapted to that?

I still get too hot here when it's 38C but know how to sit still with the fans on, on the porch, can be comfortable. Still would not prefer it. About 27-30 outside is great, and for a beach day a little hotter so that it feels good to get in the water.

A/C in the house set to 78f so that is 26, and comfortable, it's low enough to remove the humidity and keep mildew out.

Office so close I can bike in 10 minutes or walk in 20, with a pretty flexible schedule. I like it better than WFH because I give up none of my house for work now. Oh and they close the office from Christmas Eve through New Years day, I have never before worked anywhere that does that.

Lots of PTO days but it's hard to take them (too many busy days at work, not enough staff.) I schedule little 1-2 day offs for every month at least though, and usually a week off in the summer.

I was lucky enough to have not just free time, but some rare time alone today. I watched Frieren, deep watered the baby veg that are still in pots, and went for a pokemon go walk.

Subs here split a length of baguette or Cuban bread, or long bun. But not all the way through. Then they open it like a hot dog bun & put in the fillings. I hate hot dogs but if a sub is a sandwich, a hot dog is a sandwich.

What the fuck? Were there so few participants that 3rd was a bad result? High school has four years, right? 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st place, seems to me you were on track.

What do you call a guy with both legs cut off at the knee?

Neal.

It's normal & I don't care, only care about behavior - I expect straight guys are looking at women, aware of attractive women, notice nice figures, men are very visual in general, nothing bad about it. And I expect gay guys are constantly checking out men as well.

Bad is remarking on it all the time, touching, staring really hard when the lady looks uncomfortable about the staring, looking at boobs when someone is talking to you - you already know all this! Just noticing, you aren't going to be able to turn that off and ought not if you could.

Me, I notice looks but not often turned on by anyone's look. And I notice guys looking and do not care, don't think it means anything.

Part of the exhibit. They fed the gators chicken, the guy would stand on a platform and dangle the chicken on a pole, and get the gators to jump for it from the water. Like cats, it was kind of amazing. I always thought they were full of chicken. But maybe only one or two of them knew to jump for the chicken, who knows?

There's an alligator in the pond at my office park, and one day riding in on my bike I saw him grabbing breakfast, very exciting. But everyone knows not to feed them, and to to be careful of them out in the wild! I did not know to be careful of the ones that were behind a very low fence in an exhibit!

Here is the one I see on my way to work sometimes.

We live near a park with alligators in an exhibit, they are well fed and lounge on the banks of a little pond, with some turtles, sunning themselves - so I always let my kids lean over the railing, not touch them or anything but I didn't worry about it since they were fed & lazy.

Until one day, we saw one of them lunge at a turtle and grab it, moving so fast! Crunch crunch gulp. Which disabused me of two wrong ideas. One, that these alligators did not care to have a snack, and two, that nothing but eagles could eat turtles. Someone had told me that no animal could bite through a turtle shell, but that eagles would drop them from a great height to crack them open, and since I'd never seen another animal eat a turtle, I bought it.

So after that, no more leaning over.
