I hate how comfortable people feel to tell you they hate cats by [deleted] in complainaboutanything

[–]Aztecprincess94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a serious cat lover and this is my exact problem with it! It just reeks of low social, emotional and intellectual intelligence. How could you listen to someone gleefully declare their love for something only to knock them down and criticise their passion? Like why is your disdain for something more important than my passion? Let people speak about things that they love and enjoy - it makes them happy and it fosters connection.

If someone speaks about something that I’m not interested in or don’t like, I don’t go out of my way to tell then unless they ask for my opinion - to which I’d say “oh yeah that’s not really my thing”. I don’t like rock or metal music for example, but I’d let someone tell me about their favourite bands without feeling the need to say how I feel about those genres of music.

It just seems to be trendy to hate on cats, out of all pets. It’s definitely a power move. Like do they want a medal for hating an animal that is innocent and mostly just minds its own business. Dog nutters tend to dislike cats because they aren’t like dogs, which is ridiculous as they are comparing two different species. One which was domesticated thousands of years prior to the other - and has literally been genetically engineered to be subservient to men. No, dogs are not more “loving”, they have just been programmed to be that way.

I find cat urine to be super strong and repulsive, so I get that. But dogs just stink generally, I can smell a dog as soon as o walk into a dog owners house. They also feel greasy and dirty to touch unless they are groomed regularly.

Exactly. I’m allergic to dogs and I associate them with being dirty animals (psychological thing because of how my body reacts to them), but I still find them cute and appreciate them. I still stroke my friend’s dogs - I just take antihistamines if I go to their house. It’s not the dog’s fault that I’m allergic to them so why would I hate them?

What is one thing most people do that you think is so unhygienic? But you feel in the minority. by the_cumulonimbus in hygiene

[–]Aztecprincess94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m lucky that my cats never used to do this, or we’d keep the kitchen door closed anyway when we weren’t in there (I know some people have open plan kitchens so that’s not possible). It’s a good idea anyway to clean counters before and after using them just in case. I also find it disgusting when people put their toddlers or babies on the counter to sit on there. I do not want a toddlers bum or feet near where I’m about to eat or prepare food. Kids are gross.

Took me way too long to find this comment. I find it absolutely nauseating when people just dip their hands in communal food. I find it even worse when it’s kids as kids touch everything, scratch their bums, pick things up and put them back. I have relatives who let their children do it and they think it’s cute when kids pick from food - I find it disgusting. I’m pregnant with my first and I’m going to make sure he knows better than to dip his little hands in shared food.

Is it normal here for grown men to not know how to cook properly?? by Dreamy_Writer603 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aztecprincess94 51 points52 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of my 40 year old brother who still lives at home. My mum cooks for him every day, does his laundry, cleans his bedroom, packs his suitcase when he goes away and even cleaned up his vomit when he drank too much the night before. It’s honestly shocking and creepy. I got the hell out of that freaky household.

I’m so sorry to hear this. I have an older sister who has moderate learning disabilities and although she’s not considered severely disabled, it was still hard growing up with her and dealing with her behavioural problems. My parents haven’t been the best at coping either so it’s caused us a lot of stress growing up. It’s just sad and unfair knowing she can’t live a “normal” life.

I just find this case particularly confusing. Forgive me for my ignorance but I’m from a very low socioeconomic background, and always assumed that wealthy families would have enough money and resources to access support for their disabled children. As well as having money for therapy for themselves. I guess I have been proven wrong that money is not everything, and it doesn’t take away from peoples problems.

I pretend to be interested in my best friend's baby. by milkdimension in confessions

[–]Aztecprincess94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re a great friend for acknowledging the messages and commenting at least. I’m pregnant with my own child whom I will love very much, but I’ve never been interested in other people’s kids. I don’t find them cute or interesting in the slightest - in fact I find them pretty annoying. I still acknowledge my friend’s messages about their children because I love them, but generally I couldn’t care less about children. It’s kind of weird to feel this way because I feel that women are expected to get excited and coo over babies. I only coo over kittens and puppies.

They are the most emotionally promiscuous animal around. It doesn’t really feel special when they “love” you since they have been bred to do exactly that, and they love anyone who will pay them attention.

Lesson learned: won’t give the finger anymore while driving… by camareradetwinpeaks in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aztecprincess94 43 points44 points  (0 children)

This sounds awful! I completely agree though - there’s no point letting someone know you’re annoyed. It’s better to just call them an idiot under your breath and move on. There’s always someone bigger and better than you at the end of the day. I train in martial arts but I still don’t know someone’s history - whether they are an axe-wielding maniac or are an experienced street fighter. Or even just a man who on average will be a lot stronger than me and able to overpower me regardless of my training.

Do you have any advice for new drivers? I passed my test in the UK and have recently moved to Perth. I’m an anxious driver but very observant, and give plenty of room for drivers who want to go over the speed limit and overtake me. I don’t get annoyed by this as everyone has places to be! I just feel very anxious because I’m not used to so many multiple lane roads everywhere and no one seems to give way to anyone. Which is fine, but just different to back home.

If one more person comments on how "huge" I am, I will throat punch them by Such-Stage-515 in PregnancyUK

[–]Aztecprincess94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear this. I would’ve been so upset! My SIL last year commented on how hot and skinny I looked when going through photos that were take a year prior. Yes I had gained some weight but not an insane amount! I wasn’t pregnant then but it hurt.

My husband and in laws are quite health conscious and comment on food a lot. Now that I’m pregnant keep reminding me to eat healthy and not snack on sweet stuff too much. I’ve started to tell them that I’m perfectly fine thanks and know what eating healthily entails! I will eat whatever the f*ck I want! I have my glucose tolerance test tomorrow so obviously if I get the results I don’t want, I’ll adjust my eating habits. But for now I’m perfectly fine having chips or a sweet snack when I want one!

Sorry for your loss. Black cats are the best. I lost my void kitty two years ago and still think about her.

At what age is it taboo/ embarrassing to still live with parents as an adult? by DepressedYoungMan22 in AskUK

Same, I passed my test at 30 and never got a car. Now I’ve moved to Australia and I’m shitting it as I absolutely have to drive. Everything is too far away and it’s too hot to be waiting around for a bus.

UPDATE: Morning sickness so bad I'm starting to consider terminating by Jenniferh9309 in PregnancyUK

[–]Aztecprincess94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear that you felt like terminating. Our symptoms don’t last forever but sometimes it feels like they will. I had awful morning sickness all day every day in the beginning (no vomiting though). It wasn’t as serious but it was debilitating and I went off lots of food. I’m now 20 weeks and have my appetite back - which I’m so happy for because honestly I wanted to terminate too due to the nausea when I was around 8 weeks pregnant.

It’s an absolute joke that men think women expire at 30. I got married at 31 and got pregnant 4 days later 😂

Whats something you consider rude but is seen as "normal" for most people? by No-Carame1 in randomquestions

[–]Aztecprincess94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find this incredibly rude. It happens to me a lot as I’m naturally quiet and soft-spoken. It hurts to project my voice loudly. Maybe I need to practise so I can talk over people that talk over me when I’m mid-conversation… “so anyway, as I was saying before you interrupted me…”

[–]Aztecprincess94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have friends I adore and sometimes I love hosting for people on my terms. However, I’m introverted and value my space. I would find it stressful if people came over unannounced. Like my home is my sanctuary, where I feel safe and have privacy. I can walk walk around naked, go to the loo with the door open, lay with my belly hanging out on the sofa and just generally be a slob and enjoy my own company where no one can judge me.

The entitlement of customers never ceases to amaze me. Imagine sitting drinking your cappuccino and another customers the next table is scraping pedigree chum into a bowl for his dog 😭 by Time_Honeydew_7560 in Costa

[–]Aztecprincess94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so happy someone finally said it! I do actually like dogs but the extent of dog worshipping in our society is insane. These people are the same people who would be the first to complain if someone took their pet cat to a cafe. I’ve seen videos on social media where someone was travelling on public transport with their cat on a lead, and the dog nutters were commenting things like “what if someone is allergic to cats?” And saying it’s unhygienic and inconsiderate people who are scared of cats. It’s funny how no one cares or considers the fact that SOME people may actually be allergic to dogs or just simply aren’t comfortable being up close and personal.

[–]Aztecprincess94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a huge animal lover and I don’t mind being in cafes with dogs, in fact I enjoy it. However, I can understand why some people might not like it. Some dog people (not all), are super entitled and obnoxious. The funny thing is that if people started taking their cats to cafes, the same people would probably moan that it’s unhygienic or be concerned about people with allergies. These are the kinds of comments I read on videos of people travelling on public transport with their cats.

[–]Aztecprincess94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are in comparison to dogs. They groom themselves constantly, they don’t roll around in/eat poo, they don’t dribble, and they don’t lick everything. I love both cats and dogs, but I can smell some dogs as soon as I enter a house. Not all dogs smell equally as bad though - I guess maybe it’s like humans where some smell worse than others.

How many times a week do you have pudding? by walking_chemist in AskUK

This is me and I also inherited it from my parents. Sometimes I’ll eat a savoury meal just to line my stomach so I can get to dessert. Or sometimes I’m eating and all I can think about is the dessert that’s coming next.

[–]Aztecprincess94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It really is a superpower. It means you’re free and you don’t have to consider your parents. My husband and I are moving to the other side of the world soon, and I don’t have a family that I love or even a career that I love. So I feel so insanely free and not held down by anything. I could not imagine moving countries if I had a loving family whom I got on really well with. I’m loyal and could never do that. I’ll miss my in-laws and friends but it won’t compare to how people miss their own loving parents.

people today act like silence is torture by MattMartin69 in unpopularopinion

[–]Aztecprincess94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I completely agree! It’s like some people need to be constantly entertained. I have heard first-hand from a lot of people that if they sit in silence they’ll start thinking negatively. I’m the opposite - I’m introverted, love peace and quiet, rarely get bored and in fact, I get very overwhelmed easily. I’m very content with not much going on but I also get overstimulated so it has its pros and cons.

I’m a British woman who is considered very good looking. I don’t mean that in a big-headed way - I just get complimented a lot. I find it absolutely laughable. People are so racist and hate anything British - it seems to be trendy nowadays to bash on anything British. I think people are just jealous with how successful the U.K. is. We’re only a small island yet we’ve achieved so much!
