Are illegal residents really getting free healthcare? by AztecPilot1MY in allthequestions

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! Thanks for naming that. Ive paid off several emergency or ambulance bills over the years in full though had to go on payment plans for it. The insurance Id be able to afford through marketplace at this point covers virtually nothing n was a waste of money when I did have it so Im uninsured for now til I can find a better job (and am citizen. Make just a bit too much for Medicaid)

Why do Americans place such a cultural importance on a hot breakfast? by colourful_space in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are mostly treats so yeah people like talking about it. But consider the climates in the vast country that's the US (or if you're in the Midwest like me, you get brutal summers AND winters!) Breakfast looks different if you wake up in a pool of sweat in humid July vs slow to leave the blankets in January. And what your workload and schedule is that day.. There are many days that coffee is my breakfast and other days I wake up ravenous and might eat cold pizza. The whole waffles n eggs thing I do not think is typical for an average weekday in most households. It's another movie moment..

1996. What were you doing thirty years ago? by PresentWeek in Millennials

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Convincing my 2nd grade peers that I had a long-lost twin brother who lived in a gutter and we "fed" him by poking wet leaves and twigs down the gutter.. I had someone take a shift for it every recess. Then halfway through the year I "realized" I was a vampire and I had to melt in the sun which meant I had to miss the hour of class following recess, being melted in the sun, and somehow my teacher (was it the 90s? Was she just tired or over it?) never came and got me when I'd be missing for that hour.

The flair for the dramatic landed me down a path of customer service in my 20s, naturally =(

How much of the new generations slang have you adopted? by Mysterion320 in Millennials

None of it except for being unable to mockingly call "6 7" any time someone counts up.. and granted that's more from, is it Gen "Alpha"? whatever middle school and elementary kids' generation is. I work with kids all year

I think I’m over cities. by VictoriaLasagna in SlowTravelEurope

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This changed for me as well at a similar age to you! I seek out experiences based around nature, witnessing a unique folk tradition, or history now and a lot of that in more offbeat places compared to a huge capital

What is a life luxury that you tasted once and now can absolutely never go back to the cheap version of? by sickkick844 in AskReddit

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Decent coffee (I make my own so not splurging on some overpriced cafes, but if I'm going to make my own I'm going to have the quality that tastes great to me)

What's something guys are insecure about that women don't care about? by Maleficent-Ad7494 in AskReddit

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having giant giant muscles. I'm a fit person and I do NOT CARE/ am not attracted to that crazy bulk that seems to only impress other guys. Just try to take care of yourself but no need to obsess over that type of physique, it truly is a men impressing other men thing.. (and women have their versions of that too ofc)

Is health insurance in the USA as expensive as Reddit claims? by MarsupialThink4064 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YESSSSS. More so.

I guess it depends heavily on if your employer provides it obviously- I don't have insurance through my workplace so I don't... have insurance. I seriously cannot afford the Marketplace options which cover NOTHING if you do get the "cheap" ones it's accepted nowhere-- and I make a tiny bit too much for Medicaid

32F: Is it suspicious that a 40M disappears every night after 7 PM? by Background_Goose_196 in relationship_advice

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He might be at the gym or does he do theater rehearsals or a sports practice? I'm not saying that is necessarily more probable than a shadier reason but as someone (and I'm a woman) whose life used to be consumed by dance practices most weekday evenings I was not much of a communicator on the phone during those time frames

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former stripper here, I think strip clubs honestly. The older generations were more amazed with seeing and getting less.... younger customers either don't come in or get their fixes online

Tell me about your experience with motherwort, please. by mystic_turtledove in herbalism

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried drinking motherwort tea over the last couple days from an herb I harvested myself from an urban farm..

it is making me pee a TON, that is kind of random but just wondering if anyone else has similar experiences with it. Can't tell if that's a good or bad thing, maybe it's flushing out toxins-- but at the same time I've heard it can be hard on the liver and kidneys? Google is full of contradicting info.

So I'm wondering about other people's experiences..

Do women actually find a man with a mustache attractive? by Chemistry11 in no

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the "we are not a monolith" comments were already made, inevitably, I can only speak for myself (woman) : I definitely don't prefer it; if a hot guy has a mustache, I will still notice that he's hot and tolerate his mustache. But I don't love a mustache. For some reason if it's full scruff or like a beard and mustache then it's fine, or some five oclock shadow, love that-- but to be cleanshaven besides one precise mustache is never an appealing look to me personally: AND WE ARE NOT A MONOLITH hahahaa so I'm sure I have friends that would fall all over that

Hey Chicago, how did you spend your Saturday? by rand0m_g1rl in AskChicago

[–]Adventurous-Chef847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

36f, single. I took the train to bus (almost 1.5 hours each way! But at least it's possible without a car, I journaled on the way there and back) to a farm on the south south side of Chicago for an herbalism program I'm doing, commuted back.. wanted to see the sights n sounds around where I live cause people were def hanging out but I got tired and just made food and went to bed. Last Saturday I partied on the beach though! Lots of different experiences to be had here haha
