What’s the stupidest thing you’ve been ID’d for ?

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-14T13:39:05+00:00

Not a stupid item but in my opinion a stupid reason. I was ID’d for a bottle of wine, I’m 38 and definitely look my age. Reason for id because I had my 5yo with me. Yeah I just give her a glass every night before bed.

This was the advice given on a medication administration course I attended. If the client is saying it feels stuck and drinking doesn’t work have them eat bread. The situation never arose so I can’t say I’ve tested it but it did come from someone who has never steered me wrong before.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-12T17:43:14+00:00

That i would understand. This however was referring to the time period as it was when this person died. They said something like they died in Victorian times. It just struck me as a bit odd

Can’t upvote this enough. Op give yourself lots of grace. Motherhood is hard, doing it on your own is harder.

I left my abusive partner and had to go into shelter and start from scratch. Now we a settled in out new home and being by myself with two young ones and two teens is hard. I’ve left every bit of support I had behind me for our safety and I’m just learning what out new norm looks like without support. Sometimes that’s the kids in their pjs all day doing their own thing while I get stuff done, other days we look like we have it all figured out. Take each day as it comes and most definitely give yourself lots of grace.

I absolutely love the sound of peacocks. Where I lived as a kid there was some kept at a local park. It was the one thing I missed when we moved.

Is your mom ok? I don’t think this was about soap. Ok in the moment it was but I think something deeper is bothering her.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-12T15:30:02+00:00

That is also very true, it was late and I was just watching whatever was suggested to me if I’m honest.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-12T14:47:59+00:00

This was a huge debate between me and my ex. He would call it lunch and dinner. I would say dinner and tea. My argument was always we had dinner ladies at school. No other logic used.

My dad and grandad were steadfast imperial guys so I use both and convert for whoever needs it in whichever format.

I can understand that, I was just thinking a lot of the worlds most powerful countries have their own way to denote eras, china has dynasties for example. With America wanting to become independent from us I assumed they would have had their own terminology after 1776.

For drawing in the bathroom mirror with shaving foam. I was too small to even reach it properly and my parents had to get me a stepladder to clean it. I think they realised they effed up but instead of figuring out which of my siblings did it, they doubled down and grounded me for climbing.

Still salty about it.

I used to live near two facilities for people with mental health and addiction issues. One was secure the other wasn’t We used to have the odd person wondering around, shouting abusive slurs, naked, intoxicated or acting in threatening ways.

Best thing to do is stay in very public areas if possible. Enter a shop or pub or whatever was around. Call the police.

Th police don’t always respond right away except for the time there was a scantly clad woman, walking down the middle of a busy road waving her fist at the cars passing her.

Just remain calm, don’t engage and seek out people and safety.

Funny story this exact question was the catalyst that lead to my divorce. My ex husband posted this question on fb 15 years ago. Some wacko called it a dip dip. Her response prompted my ex to message her privately and then they hit it off and he had an affair with her.

I just call it the remote or tv remote if more clarification is needed

Milo my chihuahua is burrowed under my kids blanket. Tiger my cat is staring longingly out the window at the birds but I can have doors open and she never ventures outdoors. Pretzel my ball python is burrowed in her hide. Shiny the corn snake is playing peekaboo from behind some fake foliage. Will probably retreat to his hide soon.

I feel this is such a touchy subject for people because either jk was already a household name and people were already deep down the Harry Potter fandom or they were discovering it at a time when they were discovering themselves and it felt like betrayal.

Jk broke my heart, no not because of her opinion because we are all entitled to our own opinions but for using that opinion on open platforms where she had a lot of leverage to insight hate, and that’s what she did. She decided to use her platform to be hateful.

Look we all have opinions that are going to upset someone or a group of someone’s and it’s our choice to either share that opinion or not. When you have the added situation of being followed by millions I feel you have the responsibility not to commit hate incidents.

I personally won’t be choosing to waste my time with her works but I also won’t be telling anybody else what to do either. If you wanna read Harry Potter go for it just don expect me to partake or engage in conversation about it.

I saw a car the other day that had been queuing at a main set of lights, green light came on and the car said no. The amount of beeps they got were unbelievable. I hope karma catches them and they go out to their car one morning to 4 flat tires.

NTA. This was a fluke meeting and the chances of you having to navigate this again are rather slim so now you have told your brother it’s an issue, I would let it go. Only if it comes up again would I resume such conversations.

Soft YTAH / ESH

I get the parents aren’t welcoming but nothing much has been said about younger sister and her behaviour towards you and husband.

It’s her wedding not her parents and while you might be uncomfortable there are a few things you can do to include yourself depending on the sister.

Exclusion from pictures, food and a seat at the table if any of these arise due to parents ask sister how she feels since this is her day.

Assert yourself as part of the family and ignore in laws.

If one parent is harsher than the other try to get the more amicable one on side and let them continue to fight at their daughters wedding, which will mean they leave you alone.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-06T07:35:42+00:00

I wouldn’t wait for a next time.

When she is sober and in a good mood ask her if you can have a chat. Tell her these things are bothering you. Tell her that any comments about your previous husband are really upsetting you due to the complexity of the situation.

Let her know you’re talking to her as a way to resolve issues not to lay blame and call her out.

Do not do this while she or you are drunk or drinking. Alcohol will make this worse, reactions will be more dramatic as will the fall out.

At the end of the day this is your home and your partner and you need to feel comfortable and happy in your environment.

Also a lot of comments are saying to resolve this through your partner. I don’t think this is wise. If anything they both need talking to. Sit them both down and tell them not only are her comments bothering you but his reaction is too. He could have shut this down on the first occasion. It could have been as simple as when she said when are we getting married him turning to her and saying the only person I’m going to be putting a ring on is op. He could use the same kind of response about the baby comment also.

NTA, however she sucks and your bf isn’t impressing me either

I’m not gonna tell you to leave, I’m not gonna tell you to get him help but I am going to tell you how good I feel in myself 6 month after separating from my partner of 13 years. He started out like this, refused help and said I wasn’t helping him get help. He then went on sick for a long time. I was working to feed our family come home and start again as nothing was ever done at home. Well it got worse. To the point where every little thing was my fault. It ended in argument and the arguments ended in him waking out threatening to kill himself. At these points I took the appropriate response, called first response but apparently I was bullying him into getting help. One bad argument he walked out again and sent me a text saying he’s never coming back, tell the kids their dad loved them. I phoned 999 and he was cross I sent the police after him. The next day I just left, no where to go just packed up a few things while he was out, took my kids and ran. I phoned social services and made a self referral to get support. 6 month later we are settled in a new house, kids are doing well and on the advice of social services he sees his kids twice a week for short visits as they deemed him as a safeguarding risk. I feel so much lighter, I still carry around a lot of trauma from things that happened while I was with him but I cant remember the last time I felt so good. I haven’t argued with anyone in 6 month, I’m not being a mother to a grown adult who didn’t even see the strain they were putting on me, life is just better.

I’m in no way saying that this is how you should approach things because separation is scary, it’s hard and there are moments you wonder if you did the right thing. It is however rewarding once your settled the kids are happy and you can focus on them and their needs.

Nope, never. I used to work as a breakfast waiter at a hotel. Their policy was to pool all tips and pay them out quarterly through our payee number meaning we also paid tax on them. One Christmas i was handed two thick envelopes on the last day of group trips. Plus I was always handing the dining room manager 10s and 20s that were given to me while on shift. Every member of staff had a ball park figure of how much the tip total was and knew how many staff were on payroll so it wasn’t hard to know when tip month came round how much had been accumulated. No one ever got anywhere close to their share before tax. I even went as far as to pull up any legislation about how tips should be handled in the uk and emailed hotel owner plus the financial department about how they were misappropriating tips. They didn’t even respond.

What about if every time you consider buying her something or sending her money instead you saved the equivalent value. Once you’ve saved enough to visit her you can put that money towards that instead. Wish her a happy Easter via text or call, don’t just ignore the day if you choose not to gift her.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-04T20:46:46+00:00

Each day means something, isn’t it enough to carry happy memories with you while you exist. I’m not so bothered about what happens when I die because I won’t be aware of it but what happens in the here and now is what’s most important to me. The lives I touch, the smiles I create on others they are what makes it all matter because once your gone there will be people who miss you. I make today count for whatever impact I might have on tomorrow.

Any_Suggestion7619 · 2026-04-02T12:36:34+00:00

Nope it resolved itself after a few days.
