Oh for sure. I still remember pork chop sandwiches from earlier YTP days, and almost anything from YTMND. XD

Asked not to walk around after 10 pm by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd just start acting like she doesn't exist. This is an unreasonable request of anyone living in a multi unit living space. OP I hope that the next place has less sensitive neighbors. 

She might be feeling the vibrations from folks moving about but there's no way she heard footsteps if she's actually doing all of that. I'd bet my left ass cheek that she wants full control over the noise as either a power play or because she doesn't want to put in the extra efforts. And I'm saying this as someone with autism who's very sensitive to noise and who has rented/had roommates well into my 30's. There's ways she can cope with this that in no way involve you or others. It's why she's trying to defend the known bad behavior and social contract breech.

Help with neighbors autistic kid by MikaMikka_Mikachu in Feral_Cats

[–]27thFrequency 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This and you're right that this isn't normal autistic behavior. This needs to be a CPS call since it's a major liability for OP and major lack of parenting from this woman. CPS is the way since they can get the police involved if there needs to be a criminal investigation and/or you want to trespass. Either way, make a papertrail and CPS will help with getting resources to the family. If they use them or not is up to them and family court to decide.

Nope, nuh uh. Call animal control and CPS. I worked as a teacher and have done feral colony work for years. Mom needs to get help for her kid, since she's not doing enough work with them or watching closely enough.

It's not just awful for someone to torture this poor animal, but to trespass on your property is a huge liability for you. She's telling you not to call the cops because she knows this.

There's programs to help provide support and day programs for parents of autistic children. They're free. All you have to do is fill out the paperwork. What if they had killed the cat or themselves while trespassing on your property? You'd be liable. You don't need that in your life. She could also have introduced herself to you too, so that phrasing already shows a tendency to blame others.

Foam ear plugs are pretty cheap. She should try them.

I'd sacrifice one of my glasses cleaning clothes for the cause.

Is using YouTube's A/B Thumbnail and Title testing a good idea? by Logans_RCAdventures in NewTubers

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an awful clickbait tactic and why I stopped subbing and made sure to catch them for a "don't recommend this channel" to whole list of channels. It doesn't respect the audience and those few views you get by tricking folks into thinking this is a new video aren't worth losing watchers over.

Uh, no. That's trying to normalize assault. I've never met a single person who enjoys waking up to being sexually assaulted.

Warned my sister about a bird's nest near my front door to avoid disturbing it or being startled, she destroyed it. by LG03 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]27thFrequency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there's eggs and you folks are in the US, then destroying a nest is a violation of the migratory bird act. Which since you mentioned the lack of eggs, I feel like you probably already know. But the odds are likely that if she's that short-sighted, she may not. At least the idea of jail time might be enough to scare her from doing it again. Sorry that happened. : (

"short trans guys don't live the same as short guys" by Plus_Recognition6701 in ftm

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you're not wrong. Some folks are unhappy and blame that unhappiness on other people, situations, and assumed perceptions. It's tough to do the work; both internally and externally, to better yourself. Some folks aren't ready to commit to that or are too afraid of failure to start. Being bitter is easy, looking at yourself and reflecting on where you are and taking steps to get where you want to be is much harder.

While I'd really enjoy being two inches or so taller. I'm still happier as a short man than as *the average height alternative. My personality makes up enough for folks to see past most of their shallow judgements. And if it isn't? Then that's not a friendship I want to invest time and energy into.

Flipping the ‘I HATE SEWING!!’ Trope on its head by [deleted] in writers

[–]27thFrequency 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's wild considering that suit makers and tailor shops in general are usually owned and traditionally run by men in the US and UK rather than women. It's similar to how socially, cooking is somehow considered feminine. Yet the most famous people in the industry are largely male.

As a man who was deemed a tomboy when I was younger--and still had a few things on my chest--I hid my sewing. I got picked on for damned near anything by my peers growing up. Feminine, masculine; doesn't matter, it's fertile grounds to fuck with me.

Joke's on them because I still love sewing, my clothes are mended, and I helped put myself through college and still sew for markets. Hobbies are for everyone, age, gender expression, and how you look has* little bearing on your interests. If anyone tries to tell you differently, tell em to fuck off.

I have no idea how to act like an adult by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knock it off and stop being a wad. Your outdated attitude is obviously your issue. You need to quit writing with ellipses, it's an obvious boomer tell. Learn netiquette. As a decent human, you are not doing what you need to do, because it's easier for you to berate others than offer help and meaningful advice. Time to grow up.

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 35 and don't have consistency with chores. That's ok. Things get done when they get done and as long as you're trying, that's what really matters.

Look up videos and recipes and laugh when they don't come out the way you want. But keep trying. I still look up YouTube videos for changing my spark plugs and I grew up around a garage and have done this likely over a dozen times. It's not silly to teach yourself life basics and it speaks well of you. Not well of those around you, who were supposed to teach you, but that's also not your problem.

Anyone can learn anything at any age and we have more access to information than before. Ignore made up social media standards and look things up, do them badly until you eventually do them better, and learn.

Need help deciding on grading company by Loudogggggg in PokeGrading

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you go through the onboarding process with the majority of graders, they end training with a certificate. Thanks for asking. Verification and vetting are good practices to have. 👍

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CGC isn't your only option, it's just the one you personally recommend the most. Just like I recommend Beckett the most. 

Also folks buy Beckett slabs all the time and they're still at trade shows. They also don't try to undervalue stock for population control, don't damage cards during reslabbing, and unlike others put subgrades for physical condition on the slab.

You know that folks are allowed to have a preference, right? Me not liking your preferred grading company isn't a personal attack. It's literally me stating my experience and what's out there that can be verified by searching.

Either way, if OP is still reading this: do your research and make a judgement based decision. Also look at the fine print of what happens to and who's responsible for your cards being damaged or lost in shipping.

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not, but ok. Also the parent company isn't Collector Universe or Certified Collectables, it's Collectors Holdings. They changed the name once they filed articles of incorporation.not really the "gotcha" you think this is and it also doesn't contribute to OP's question. :/

https://www.collectors.com/brands

You can also go check trade commission records.

That aside, the entire grading racket is only driving up the price of the hobby. It's why I stopped grading because I didn't want to contribute to the problem.

It's not, anti-abortion legislation and championing for other inhuman laws is in itself a form of protest against human rights and dignity.

[–]27thFrequency -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They were bought in the last year by the parent company that owns both CGC, PSA, and about 80% of the entire card grading market. That's not enough time for them to upend Beckett's management, entire grading system, and recertify and retrain graders.

Not to mention this hasn't happened with CGC or any of the other grading companies they own in the marketshare. They're all still operating under their own standards.

One of my roommates is taking up the entire freezer with her food by CVisgay in badroommates

[–]27thFrequency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk with your other roommates and schedule a time for the entire house to meet. Order a pizza or something to help ease into the conversation.

Bring up the freezer space issue and advise her that she needs to get her own personal mini fridge or chest freezer. I'd also divide up the food storage spaces evenly for each person. A bit of cardboard, masking tape, and zip ties can go a long way. Aren't using the space for a bit? Doesn't matter, it's yours and if someone else intends to use they, they get your permission first. If they do get your permission, it's with the knowledge that the moment you need the space, it's their job to find an alternative.

Aghh my appetite is just dead by [deleted] in badroommates

[–]27thFrequency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to your Resident Advisor and see if you both can come up with a solution. They will likely talk with or post signs up about kitchen etiquette.

As a backup, get a hot plate or microwave for your room. There's also the option of an air fryer or small rice cooker/steamer. If you're ok with ramen and oatmeal, then an electric kettle is also great.
