Honestly, this is probably almost exactly how it went down

Have you seen the way old men dress? Everything is gray or brown with the least amount of shape or texture. It's like boomers collectively agreed to be as uniform and boring as possible. There used to be as much style and individuality in men's fashion as women's, but sometime around the end of the 1800s they all said "let's just all wear this one plain thing for the next 200 years."

One of my old bosses once went to the police station when he was drunk or high (or both) to complain about something crazy, and maybe about a crazy person trying to drive his car that he was actually driving. I think they talked him into spending the night while they checked it out. He had issues.

I've heard an old man use it this way a long time ago in the west. You would only hear it from someone who's very old or thinks they're a polite cowboy.

I honestly cannot tell if anyone is flirting with me or not. I also cannot imagine that anyone would flirt with me in the first place, but if anyone did, I still wouldn't know. The only flirting I knew was when my wife called me up and lectured me for not asking her out. Apparently, she had been flirting with me and I didn't know. I am not bright.

Monorail!

I went back to school. You can find tons of online courses in just about any subject, and some will count for real college credit if you ever want to turn it into a degree. Many are free, but some will cost you and most are worth it. A way to make your addiction productive.

I would go along with it and hang out and don't expect anything more. At worst, you have a fun new friend whom you like to hang out with --that's a win! Since she has no problems making the first move, if she wants this to be more, she'll let you know. Just have fun with your new friend!

Applause to you for this.

Next level shirts are almost perfect

I wear tall sizes which makes finding shirts a pain. Old Navy has tall sizes and their t shirts are on sale for $6 a few times a year. And they're very soft and comfortable! I buy like 5 every couple of years.

In the US, most of the food is made in the same factories because they're regional, then the name brands might get to pick the freshest batch, but often it's the exact same stuff just in different boxes.
