I tend to prefer stairs for short climbs, but if I'm trying to get to like the 19th floor I'll take the elevator.

I go to the supermarket about 3 times a week and just buy about 2 bags worth of stuff. Rarely I overbuy and end up with 3-4 bags and I struggle to get it 1/4 mile home without bags breaking or things spilling.

So I can't really imagine someone carrying 8 bags home, much less up stairs

Car? I don't have one of those.

The checkers at the supermarket always ask if I need help getting the groceries to my nonexistent car. They'll remember all kinds of weird details about me, like my job or my bizarre eating habits, but can't remember that I walk

(Actually, I suspect corporate has told all employees to ask everyone such, even in the easily walkable urban locations like the one I use.)

That may explain it. I live alone, so there is no "we" to carry my groceries home, just an "I"

You think that's too old, try being someone like me who doesn't want sex at all. People think I'm some weird alien freak. Some dont' grasp that there can be anything, for anyone, that is better than sex. It just...doesn't interest me, and I find it rather gross besides

My dad was really upset about it too. Maybe he just wanted grandkids

Nah, I'm fine carrying it by myself 3 times a week, really. I don't really have meatspace friends and even if I did, I wouldn't want to hassle them over it all the time.

the idea of "You can't get sex? You're a loser freak" is a REALLY stupid idea.

This.

Imagine, if you will, a world where 99% of people are obsessed with rock climbing. They would spend every waking moment rock climbing if they could, and they see rock climbing as vastly superior to any other activity, real or imagined. Never mind all the effort it may take to get yourself to a mountain that offers rock climbing, or the risk of serious injury. Rock climbing is where it's at.

Also imagine that rock climbing does not interest you. Either you're not willing to take the risks, or you did it once but thought it was meh, or you just don't want to go through the effort to find a mountain and pay a fee and all that to climb rocks.

And let's say that, upon hearing of your decision, all of your friends, acquaintances, enemies, and random people on the street look at you all aghast, as if the concept of someone not liking rock climbing was alien to them. Worse, people make fun of you and think you're mentally screwed up because you don't want to rock climb like everyone else, because it just doesn't appeal to you the way it does to them.

Now, replace "rock climbing" with "sex", and you have our actual society.

It takes a lot of effort to find a sex partner, especially for the more introverted among us. Orgasms only last a few seconds at most. And there is the risk of serious medical problems in the form of STDs, as well as the risk of unwanted pregnancies in the case of straight sex. You can use protection, just like you can wear harnesses and pads when you rock climb, but they won't work 100% and they might not be around.

And I'm that chick who has no interest in the whole sex thing. And people don't accept the fact that I just don't want to have sex. They laugh, they say I must be ugly or whatever. But I just have no interest, like the person who doesn't want to climb rocks.

(Side note: I am interested in having an (also female) romantic partner, someone to share my life with and snuggle on the couch and stuff. And I can feel physically attracted to people and find them hot. But I have no interest in actual sex or in anyone's genitalia.)

Sunny days are often too bright for me. I like the more muted light of a cloudy day better.

I also hit Enter instead of ' a lot. Dumb placement of the ' key.

Speaking of which, I had a lot of trouble with keyboards when I was in Germany. The letters Y and Z are switched around relative to English keyboards, so I'd often mix up words with a Y or Z in them. Also, for some reason the left Shift key is half its normal size to make room for some other key (I think it was > or something), screwing up my attempts to capitalize words with my left hand.

My other bad experience was when I made the mistake of buying a rubber keyboard. I thought it'd be nice for being spill- and crumbproof since I eat at the computer, but it was a piece of crap to type on. Even the slightest touch of a key was registered as a keystroke, so I'd have a lot of accidental keystrokes peppering my text. The Shift key stuck, so I'd TYpe LIke THis a lot.
