Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

I realized that for such a long time, I've been using the term "sweatshirt" to refer to a hoodie, when in fact "sweatshirt" is actually technically the term for a zip-up shirt without a hood. And hoodie is really the proper word to use. But I still want to call it a sweatshirt. And now my life is more confusing.

Oh, huh...now that I think about it, I’ve never thought much about what counts as a sweatshirt vs. a hoodie. I don’t really ever call zip-ups sweatshirts—I usually just refer to them as jackets. And then I own a lot of what I normally think of as ‘sweatshirts’, which don’t have zippers or hoods, but maybe the more proper term for them would be pull-over sweatshirts? And for non-zip sweatshirts with hoods, I usually refer to them as either sweatshirts or hoodies, interchangeably I guess.

Oh, no! I wanted to make a post about Endgame on the Marvel thread a day after I watched it, and then I didn't, and now it's been almost a week since then and all my thoughts on it are slipping awiay!

I got a phone! Aaaah, I got a phone! I've wanted one since I was six or seven...and now I have one! We have some pretty strict rules on it right now, like I can't take it into my bedroom or anywhere in the house above the first floor (which I'm kind of sad about because one of the reasons I wanted a phone was to be able to listen to Spotify and Pandora from it), but still--I have one!

Aaaaaand...I got a Marvel phone case. ^^ It's a super cool design, I'll post a picture of it in a sec--it's just such a heart-rending quote, I love it. Unfortunately, it turns out that the case is not very good protection for my phone, and it doesn't have much of a lip above the phone so if I drop it straight facedown, it'll probably break before you can say "cracked glass". So we may have to get a different case--*cries*. But while I have it, my plan is that if anyone asks me "Are you a Marvel fan?", I can just take my phone out, hold it towards them with the back of the case showing and say with a slightly cynical/amused tone, "What do you think?"

Here's a picture--I apologize, it's late right now and I didn't have the best lighting, so it's not great. But yeah! Phone case! On my phone! *Goes and bounces around excitedly*

@Leafy You might want to get a screen protector for your phone, that way you won't have to get a new case! I love that case.

Screen protectors don't always work that well, though.

I have a screen protector and I think it's worked pretty well, but I'm not sure. My phone also has a pretty good lip. You might be right that it's better to get a new case so it doesn't rest right on its screen if it falls, but that case is really cool (and I haven't even seen Captain America or any movie involving him).

Also, wow, this last couple of new CAPTCHAs have given me a lot of trouble. Maybe I'm secretly a robot.
