Not saying I'm from a conservative Muslim family with extreme emphasis on shame but if anyone knew I date people my head would be mounted on a pole
Ah man. I grew up in an Evangelical Christian family, specifically Independent Fundamental Baptist. The most conservative of conservative Christians. The kind of Baptists who think Southern Baptists are "liberal". I remember when I had my first girlfriend in High school and my parents thought I might maybe possibly have had sex one time. I had not. At least not at that point. They Flipped. Their. Shit.
Coming out of the closet.

Can't tell if the spelling misstakes are engagement bait or just a sad irony.
It's bait of course.
Treating mental health issues, because they apparently don't exist.
Not taking shoes off at the door
Same here. No one wears shoes in the house.
Work.
Grew up on a tobacco farm, didn't matter what was going on, if there was work it had to be done.
Dang, are you guys like old world royalty, and wealthy as fuck?
Eating the last one of any snack.
Who gets to eat it?
Nobody. The last one must remain on the plate. Anyone who goes for it gets admonished.
No one, until supplies are replenished. Once there's more than one it's fair game again.
Having dreams or being understood.
My family is pretty chill. I can do pretty much whatever.
Are we related?
It might be more likely than you might think.
You grew up on reddit?

Miss Steaks.
Miss takes.
Takes what?
Mistakes were made...

Being left alone.
Stealing the poop knife
Fucker. Keep your hands off my poop knife.
Racism
I feel like this needs to be rephrased
Wasting food. Even if it was just a bit of rice left over, I'd be told "someone worked hard picking that rice" so I'd eat it. Even now, whenever I eat food I make sure to cherish it and eat every last bit of it! 😋
I've worked in a rice field, it's hard back breaking work. So next time you eat some rice you better think of me motherfucker. ;)
I will! I will enjoy it more knowing how much hard work was put into it! 🍚
I’ll often leave food because I’m full. I’m conscious to not eat more than I need.
In this vain, why should the rice farmer and me both suffer?
I’ve watched a friend stuff himself for years with stupid portions of food and now he has gout and is an unhealthy weight, likely to be a burden on our NHS in later life, causing further suffering to many more people.
