Literally just had this exchange with my partner of 26 years. I’m curious about how typical our interaction is in the wider Lemmyverse.

    OH MY GOD!!!

    When I was in college, a computer lab coworker asked me how long I had been dating my girlfriend.

    I told her 6 years. She said, “Shit or get off the pot!”

    That was the moment I decided to propose. We’ve been married for 33 years, together for 39.

    When people ask about the proposal, I tell that story, and end with, “…so I decided to shit.”
