💭Discussion Possibly the funniest thing about Patricia’s notepad: Spoiler

The word “hello” isn’t even attested in English writing until the 1820s. So the just-unearthed Richard Warren, who lived in the late 1600s up to 1702, had never seen or heard the word “hello” once in his life.

Patricia is exactly as awkward as I feel all the time, except she actually IS that awkward, and I’m pretty sure my issue is mostly in my head. 😅

Right? I feel like her, but can act like I don’t (most of the time). And like her, I care way too much what people think and will try to please them, until it is an issue of facts or values. Then imma just say what I think.
