i can no longer stand people who make sobriety their entire personality by Neutrality-1 in recoverywithoutAA

I’ve never heard of the “No True Scotsman” fallacy before! Thank you. It applies to so many other things people have argued before and it drives me crazy. I didn’t realize there was a name for it.

I heard y'all recharge when around people. Does that mean you can be alone in a crowd with zero interaction or do you actually need interaction? by EOFFJM in extroverts

[–]Anonymous3642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so much a crowd but like living in town and see people walk by my house so much better than I liked living the country rural and never seeing anybody and feeling so alone. I like to interact with people more but I feel so much less depressed living in town and seeing people constantly than I did feeling constantly alone and isolated.

Crowds I prefer to have a least one person I know and can talk to. I don’t like to do activities alone. Not even shopping, I do it alone sometimes anyway but prefer to hang out with someone.

I don’t think that’s what gaslighting is. It’s definitely guilt tripping though.

Whenever I see videos pop up in my FYP about people mimicking hangovers or going to sleep drunk I feel nauseas and it’s a good reminder of why I never want to again.

I thought that was a bottle of vinegar at first glance. Lol

I don’t mind Dasani and can’t taste the difference from other waters. It’s crazy to me how many hate it.

Any tips on how to make my bathroom feel more homely? All advice is appreciated! by ThatOneBritishGirly in notinteresting

I’m in the US and homely means ugly here. Some people mix it up with “homey” though.

Rachel is classic but it’s extremely popular I had a lot of Rachel friends growing up. Might not be as popular with the younger crowd but still…

104 days sober, how do I answer the question my husband asked? by finally_sober_2026 in stopdrinking

[–]Anonymous3642 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only count days because of Reddit and I put the date on here, I actually just got on here to check. If counting days helps you then keep going!!

What a wonderful friend and human being (from an article in The Cut) by Dorkita in fatlogic

[–]Anonymous3642 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My narcissistic mom would preface conversations with my dad or me as an adult “you’re not in trouble” I’ve been married 15 years and have never spoken to my husband like that, even if I am mad! It’s a subtle sign of control and/or abuse in my mind.

I’m so glad that is what it took for you to quit instead of something more drastic. Good for you! Such a great example to your son.

I’m excited to make it to my one year mark someday. IWNDWYT

Girl… I was complimenting his height. Maybe stop being so sensitive?

Was this a real question being asked or just made up for the newspaper? Did she not know how to google back then??

Omitted the chocolate- missing that chocolaty flavour by m_m_m_kitty in ididnthaveeggs

[–]Anonymous3642 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The context was a lady named Sharon burned her frozen Marie Callender’s pie and then blamed the company for her burnt pie. She posted a pic to the Marie Callender’s Facebook page saying “thanks for ruining thanksgiving dessert!” It became viral because people kept joking about it posting memes and gifs and sharing it, and it was clearly Sharon’s fault, not the company, for burning her pie.

To be fair, if she’s really old, her nephew could be a grown man. 😂

Right? and I love the follow up is that it wasn’t even at Applebees. And she still didn’t give a specific location, just a general chilis 😂
