all i would have to do is take a picture out my window. Its just cows, grass, and a hill that goes on for like 50 yards

@xvarnah your comments always get me. You strike me as the mid-life crisis aunt in her early 30s who always has a glass of red wine in her hand. Your comments are equal part humour and backhanded wit
Well, I'm not gonna lie-- some of the comment sections DO make me want to take up drinking. Aggressively, and with gusto.
'
In seriousness though, I'm glad you enjoy them haha :) your comment made my day a bit (and it's not even halfway through-- so I'm not sure if this speaks more to the quality of your comment or the quality of my days)
'
As a side note-- you're the second person to describe me as motherly/aunt-like so far on this site
'
Forgot to @ you because I fail at life. Going to @ you now like I didn't have to triple check how to spell your name. @shikharizard

@xvarnah
I’m glad I could make your day a little in return for the consistent giggles I extract from your commentary. I hope it made a good day better.
.
And yes, my name is a tough one. I routinely say that charmingly over the phone, accompanied by a pleasant laugh. People seem to appreciate the humour.
.
I hope you did not take the motherliness badly ;)
It's to be equivalent exchange, then! And I enjoy making people laugh, so knowing you do (and seeing the really thought-out comment you left for grim and Aviva) really were bright spots in the day. You seem very bluntly honest (you don't hold anything back at any rate based on some of your stories haha), laid-back and down-to-earth.
'
Haha I bet they do. You have to find humor in things like that, I think. Though I didn't realize it was your actual name as well, (or else you're making a joke and I'm being dense which is pretty standard). But I now realize I have no bloody clue how to PRONOUNCE it, much less spell it. I think my issue is my brain wants to turn "shik" to "sheik" and "harizard" to "hazard" (or charizard depending on the day).
'
Now, admittedly "Sheik Hazard" might be a bit of an unfortunate name for you to have in real life, but it would make me @'ing you a lot simpler
And I don't, at all. It probably beats "that one passive-aggressive bitch with the sarcasm" or some of the other things I've been called <.<

@xvarnah
Hahaha, definitely not. Even without knowing you, it's not difficult to infer there's a relatively kind and gentle soul behind your comments.
.
And yes, while I tend to stress myself out to death, I am incredibly honest. I believe in directness- it seems to have the best effect and frankly I got fed up with mincing words to spare people's feelings. The way I see it, is nobody benefits from sugar-coating or half-truths. And thank you! I'd like to think I have a good sense of humour. Perhaps a little dry, and definitely an acquired taste..
.
Shikharizard was a suggestion provided to me by my first supervisor when I was working as a Barista during college, way back in the day. It's my name, along with the pronunciation of Charizard from Pokemon. I changed the spelling mildy to preserve my privacy.
Well Im sure I have my moments, but it's kind of nice that I can give that impression also. :) "relatively" being the keyword, of course
'
Well we have the stress part in common. I have a hard time picturing you stressed from your comments, but like I said you just always seem laid back (and maybe a small bit horny <.<). I'm a bit jealous of that ability. To be honest, not horny, I mean. Not that I LIE a lot, but I'm always trying to be very conscientious of peoples' feelings. I don't want to spare them the truth but I try to keep it as padded with pillows as I can. Most of the time. Until I get annoyed and then it starts getting more prickly the more you bother me haha. But yeah the ability to just say what's on your mind, regardless, without actively being an asshole, is pretty hard to come by. Especially these days.
Haha I'd say you have a sense of humour. I tend to just overthink things and it makes me miss jokes sometimes. But I've definitely chuckled at several of your comments. Also: Dry humor is some of the best humor.
'
So I wasn't so far off with Charizard then at least haha. It's always interesting learning how people come up with their names. Except maybe like jizzmaster6969. That's one origin story I'm usually willing to pass

Yes, the “relatively” is quite apparent. I don’t think anyone would mistake you for a pushover, or a coward- which is a very good thing. You’re sweet without being weak.
.
As for the stress, yeah, I’ve had a stressful life. Not very much has been easy for me, and between a relatively tough past and ongoing, challenging circumstances, not to mention my profession, it’s extremely important I stay level-headed. As a result, I’ve developed good mental-toughness and a high stress threshold. The problem is, I set high standards for myself and drive myself crazy. But I’ve mastered the art of staying cool externally. Except when I lose my temper.. then all bets are off and you better run for cover :)
.
As for sparing people’s feelings, I couldn’t care less. I don’t think people benefit from sugar coating. My friend will appreciate me telling them the truth. The ones who can handle the truth stay my friends, and they’re the ones I want. The best way to hurt my enemies is also the truth.

So it’s a win/win, for me anyway. I’m also ultra, hyper-competitive, so winning is good haha.
.
And thank you! Thank you very much. I’m glad someone appreciates my humour, I definitely love yours. Honestly I think we’re actually quite similar, though I may be slightly more aggressive :)
.
And a little bit? Perpetually, incredibly horny ;)
But that’s only because I’ve been single for a while, sex honestly isn’t that important to me anymore
You cannot BE a country.
Anyway, I'm guessing upper northern hemisphere. Looks cold
