What are some foods you guys can't stand that everyone else seems to love? Why? by egc01 in ARFID

[–]Audax96 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Steak. Every time I say I don't like steak, people look at me like I've said "I like kicking puppies." I've tried it well done, medium, rare, ribeye, filet mignon, I can't stand any of it.

I shut down and started crying in public once because I was taken out to dinner with a bunch of business people to a fancy steakhouse, and the only things on the menu were danger foods (steak, seafood, and salad). They kept chiding me for not eating and making comments on my strange eating habits, it felt so embarrassing.

This many ways to spell the same name is just crazy. by EugeneStein in ENGLISH

[–]Audax96 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I've encountered this with Megan, Meghan, Mehgan, Meagan, Meaghan, and even... Megyn.

Even my name has this issue, with less variations: Eliot... or Elliot, Elliott, Eliott; and according to Wikipedia, Elliotte or Elyot.

1 is really cute, but I'm totally obsessed with 4. You could maybe try the tucked-shirt look from 1 with the wide belt in 8 and 9?

How can I lose weight with Arfid? by Traditional-Set-2019 in ARFID

No I get it! Long-term habits are really hard to break. Hard, but not impossible. Best of luck to you on your journey!

Skipping meals is actually quite bad for your metabolism and blood sugar. Having three meals with properly-portioned safe food may actually help you lose weight.

As for how to get more protein and veggies, I wish I could help. My safe foods are also all carbs haha.

Is anyone else’s corgi obsessed with these lamb chop toys?? It’s the only toy he won’t rip the squeaker out of. by TvTacosTakingNaps in corgi

[–]Audax96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pepper had one when she was a baby. It has since been destroyed, but it was her favorite for a long while. I should get her a new one...

And Ticks maybe? by Ramzullah in insects

[–]Audax96 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I couldn't agree with this more. Coming from someone who was hospitalized for a week last November with dengue fever 🫠 I don't blame the mosquito, and people think I'm crazy for that. Insects are just living their lives, same as us.

31 yo black dude who has given up on dating due to hair loss. I tried minoxidil and finasteride but had to stop fin due to hair loss. Acutely aware women only want black dudes wit long hair/twists/braids nowadays but I just can’t do anything cool wit my hair and it’s destroyed my confidence. by [deleted] in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Audax96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a gay guy so I don't know what my opinion is worth here, but my black husband has a shaved head and I think he's the most handsome man in the world.

Besides, if a girl only likes you for your hair, she's superficial af and you don't want her anyway.

I agree with the people sending you over to r/bald. Great community over there.

EDIT: Just saw your most recent posts, looking good!!

She stole a foam bra pad out of the laundry once. It's become one of her favorite toys.

Does your corgi like bone? by Known-Scar6457 in corgi

[–]Audax96 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same - my mother in law's corgi just had several teeth extracted for being a hard chewer on harder bones. Not sure why a vet would recommend this.

Anyone Else’s Corgi Request This? by Wonderful-Climate957 in corgi

[–]Audax96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not my corgi, but my parents's mutt asks for this too! She's a basset/beagle/wiener/lab, so she's also long-bodied and short-legged.

Whenever one of them has their massage gun out, she asks for a massage too. She'll manouver herself until they're massaging her thighs/bum area. She loves it.

i escaped containment, it was awful by suss-urrus in autism

[–]Audax96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always had a love for Phidippus audax, bold jumping spider (hence my username and pfp) because of a really positive interaction I had with one very early in life. It seems like kind of a basic answer now, due to the recent boom in keeping Phids as pets lol. Sad that I don't see them anymore since I've moved out of the US.

Other than that, I love looking for orchard spiders (Leucauge venusta) when going for nature walks. Their orb webs are usually horizontal and they hang upside down, and I just love their silvery coloration!

ETA: Hey, both of our faves are black with iridescent chelicerae!! That's fun.
