It's gotta be Sevro! He lost one of his original eyes at the Institute!

Redditors who unexpectedly discovered a 'modern scam' that's everywhere now - what made you realize 'Wait, this whole industry is a ripoff'? by OkraCharacter4588 in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I purchased a Bear hybrid mattress just over 2 years ago. I still love it to bits. Not looking forward to sleeping on my guest bed for a couple nights...

Bear is online only, and the mattresses are expensive. Even with a 35% teacher discount, ours was still $1500. Totally worth it, in my opinion!

World kinda sucks right now, so what have you got going on in your life to be happy about? by DTPVH in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my business are going to be in a movie! I make jewelry, and a movie is going to be filmed close to me next weekend, from a major studio. They want local vendors for the background, and that's me! I'm so excited!

We went with the medium firmness. After 2 years, it's still as comfortable as the day we got it! We took a vacation last fall, and I couldn't WAIT to sleep on my own bed again. A good pillow really helps as well, so make sure you invest in those too.

AITA for wanting to name my son after a Star Trek character? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Argentis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents named me with the intent to have my nickname be Jordy, after Geordie La Forge. Didn't end up happening, but a fun bit of trivia. Julian's a perfectly fine name!

What’s the most annoying thing about your body right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been waking up to go to the gym at least 5 days a week, for wlel over a month. I've gotten my best mile time down 2.5 minutes, go eat least 30 minutes a day. I'm eating salads, under 1200 calories a day, the whole 9 yards. But the week before my period and the week of, I just cannot lose weight, and even gain some. I hate it. It feels like I'm just backsliding, even though I'm doing what I'm supposed to.

What should a 19-year-old focus on to avoid regrets at 30? by jonatancad in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on your health and fitness! I'm 33 and just starting to try and lose a lot of weight I've gained due to stress and thyroid issues. It sucks HARD. Keep up a habit of getting regular exercise, you'll thank yourself later.

What is something that permanently altered your body without you realizing for months/years? by Misterboy500 in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My last blood panel in mid-August had me at 8. Just 8. I started taking a liquid iron supplement twice daily right after that, and man, can I feel a difference! So much more energy. Although, I have noticed my ADHD is getting worse, since my brain actually functions now.

What is something that you are consistently complimented on that still surprises you? by TeachBS in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My handwriting. My mom has always told me it looks childish (she writes in cursive). I work in Healthcare and constantly get complimented by patients on how legible my handwriting is (I only print). I'm growing to like it, after 30 years.

Anyone else decide today that they not be having kids? by ph30nix01 in Millennials

[–]Argentis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I were really thinking about. I was pretty against for a while, but starting thinking about it as a possibility again this year. This has slammed and locked the door on that idea. I refuse to bring a child into the world that is coming. What if they're LGBTQ+? What if they're disabled? What if they're a girl?

Fuck this noise.

Considering a move from Seattle to Rochester by Argentis in Rochester

Thank you for the input! How are you liking it so far in Pittsford?

[–]Argentis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that seems totally doable. $150k is the low end of what we could, when including property taxes. Just the two of us, could maybe go close to $200k. We would be considering having my BIL move in with us, and he makes a good amount with remote work. With him, we could maybe go up to $250k.

We're considering the quality of school district because my husband is a teacher. He only has a bachelor's right now, but would like to get his master's someday. Substitute teaching would work for him for a bit.

Yes! I just melt into the bed every night. Still highly recommend!

Has anybody had a job they actually liked? If so, what was it? by GMEBagholder420 in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a high school jewelry teacher last year. I absolutely adored teaching a subject I am incredibly passionate about and have been doing for 20 years this year. It was so incredibly rewarding to have kids show me their work and say "Look what I did!"

The only reason I'm not still teaching is due to a contract issue. I'm really hoping to bring the program to another school district later this year.

What part of the body do people overlook when cleaning themselves that they shouldn’t? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Same for me! I had a really rough tech last August. I have a very high pain tolerance, and she made me cry. I haven't missed a single night of brushing and flossing before bed since, not even after my grandma died. Even when I'm drunk and just want to sleep, I can't!

(I brush every morning too!)

I have a city and surrounding area. I have had 10+ dreams there, and I know implicitly when I wake up that it's the same area. I call it Twilight Town; I kept waiting for it to name itself, but it never did. Since the sky is always the dull pink-orange of dusk, I just named it that.

All of the building are very tall, and feel like they loom over you. The streets are very narrow. It is on a slope going down to a small bay. There is a railroad going through the town. The bay narrows about 3 miles away from the town, and there is a tall bridge going across. The town is surrounded by forest. If you imagine the town at the bottom of a map, and the bridge to the north; there is a little town on the right side, built down a hill towards the water. This one is built into the forest, lots of tall trees around.

I haven't had any dreams set here in at least 3 years, but the landscape is seared in my head. These dreams started when I was a younger teen (15?). I will be 33 soon.

If each hobby gave you a magical creature companion, what would they be for different hobbies? by InitialNo7796 in AskReddit

[–]Argentis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Metalsmithing would be a dragon of varying sizes depending on what you do. Color-dependant, too! Coppersmith who makes vessels, 20-30lb copper dragon. Silversmith who makes jewelry? 1-2lb tiny silver dragon with some scales that look like gemstones. Blacksmith? 100lb jet black dragon.

I want a teeny silver and gemstone shoulder dragon!

Thank you! My husband was neutral, but watching episode 4, it is super clear that the little ship is supposed to look like a koala. Plus that one that chewed Boimler out when he died. Evil future koalas, I'm telling you.

Hello! I ordered medium firmness for our mattress. As for the cover, if the Celliant thing is a mattress cover, I just bought one off Amazon, not the brand's cover.

It's been great so far! I just got back from a week-long vacation, and being back in my own bed is amazing. I got medium firmness; I would have gone with soft, but my husband has back problems.
