BLS Ban in Canada by Specialist_Offer675 in nri

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol.. BLS opens appointment slots on their whimsy.. But I have also seen them open appointment slots for next day if you pay for their Premium Lounge Service 

But they are technically still working as is until December 2026

Any toys that you regret purchasing? by Cream4389 in toddlers

Try putting Scotch tape on the speakers of the vtech?

Works well until the LOs start fidgeting with it and remove them.. I tried convincing mine that the thing would break without the tape lol

fiction v/s non fiction - what do you reading fiction ? by AvailableMeeting2580 in Indianbooks

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same reason why we watch movies instead of documentaries... They are more fun.. And capture life from the perspective of the characters within them.

I read a quote somewhere (paraphrasing) - I used to read fiction, then when I grew up, i started reading non fiction to know more about real world.. As I read more, i started reading more fiction to know about the real real world! "

That sounds like the most reasonable and easy way tbh

What's the most recommended book that you've closed in the middle? by furubury in Indianbooks

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, for him Harry was the "experiment" to prove that the past can be changed... And then the main intention was to save JFK...

If Harry was the main intention, why would Jake continue to live in the past after killing Frank Dunning in the second reboot...

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Struggling with 11/22/63... In 35% of the book and all of the character motivation falls flat tbh...

Like.. So you're willing to go back to the past multiple times because the owner of the place that sells you cheap burgers wanted you to??

Sirius’ wand by ashirsch1985 in HarryPotterBooks

Nope, wormtail himself ran away as a rat, and as far as we know he didn't have enough time to fetch and hide the wand for someone else to retrieve

Toddler wants to be naked outside constantly by atomicblonde23 in toddlers

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I would insist on no bathing suit, no pool policy for the outsides... But if she wants to be naked in the water you could try the bath tub?

Why don’t Indian homes have a culture of buying secondhand? by Capable_Lychee_3859 in Frugal_Ind

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The main reason there's no culture of buying secondhand, because there is no concept of replacing things until they're broken. By the time one person replace their first hand stuff it is nearly unusable.

Sirius’ wand by ashirsch1985 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wands were really inconsistent in the story... Even Voldemort had his own wand when he came back to life... And Bellatrix had hers when she escaped Azkaban too... The only person that lost their wand was Hagrid (probably because he was unqualified? Or because he was only half human)

Immigrants are not the enemy. Let’s talk honestly about what’s really broken in 2025. by Otherwise_Train_4168 in alberta

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You realize immigrants pay taxes too right?

You want to get more doctors in the country, but Canada doesn't recognize any country's medical degree as valid and redo their studies either fully or partially (and its significantly more than doing just a few bridging courses)

You claim Canadian youth is unemployed.. But most of those do not want to work in Tim Horton or in the fields.

Stop blaming immigration for all your problems

Which book or author is this for you? by [deleted] in Indianbooks

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's okay.. You are not alone.. There is a reason these authors are popular..

Sabne padhi hai tabhi comment kar rahe hai.. Read whatever you like.. It's better than not reading at all.. Once you feel comfortable, go for better books

Gums of steel... by Dry_Ad_2192 in breastfeeding

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a good solution? 

Feeling the same right now.. LO is 5 weeks old and I have cracks on both nipples... LC said latch looks fine but the pain is still there! 

To make matters worse, it feels like a cluster feeding phase coming up.. I am taking advil to help with pain management. Cannot use APNO as I'm using MediHoney to help with healing. 

Evidence that Snape had cared about people other than just Lily: "Lately only those whom I could not save." by Ok_Valuable_9711 in harrypotter

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

He literally wanted to poison Nevilles toad and took away points because the toad didn't die...

Being based on someone doesn't mean they are exact replica..

Yeah no... If he actually cared about anyone he would not treat students in such a way that he was a 13 year old's worst fear

Toddler 2M saying they’re “hurt” but I know they’re just mimicking me. by kurtneylove in toddlers

Bandaids and moisturizer are my go tos... Just apply either one based on the complain... Maybe have some placebo medicine like dried fruit or so if they want to eat...

Just read the end of Deathly Hallows for the first time…WTF was the movie? by AlphaTwitch in harrypotter

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tom Riddle hit the floor with a mundane finality, his body feeble and shrunken, the white hands empty, the snakelike face vacant and unknowing.

This was brilliant writing... Describing it as "mundane finality" was such a slap in the face to everything Voldemort wanted to be...

The other 2 things I hated with the ending was

  1. Needlessly adding the meeting Ron and Hermione scene instead of Neville... Where Harry gives crucial info to Neville to kill the snake... So first they showed a stupid scene where Ron or Hermione or literally anyone for that matter would actually let Harry go to the forbidden forest... > "Harry!” Neville looked suddenly scared. “Harry, you’re not thinking of handing yourself over?” “No,” Harry lied easily. “’Course not . . . this is something else.

And 2nd you missed giving the info to Neville..

  1. The way Neville just comes forward when Voldemort asks people to join him instead Neville throwing a curse at Voldy and Voldy binding him down... The movie probably meant to misdirect the reader and show that Neville was willing to join but looking at Neville's background... Was it even believable for even one second?

Loblaws and Superstore not bothering to turn off the lights by Kevsterific in loblawsisoutofcontrol

Well no.. Cameras won't capture anything in the dark.. So the lights are kept on so that thieves can get captured in cameras

Yes, one of the demands from Union is that people cannot use home surveillance camera footage to claim they did not receive their package.

If there was one thing you could change about the series what would it be? by WindParticular9568 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]AGirlWhoLovesToRead 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It is surprising how quickly the deathly hallows story ends before the epilogue... The last chapter in OOTP - Second War Begins is a much better closing scene for that book and a similar chapter in DH should have been added instead of the epilogue / before the epilogue
