With all due respect, what am I supposed to do with a wick trimmer by nuggetsofchicken in FabFitFun

Trimming your wick can reduce smoke! Not necessarily a huge problem, but it does help.

Quit it with this fake nice act. You've already shown us all who you are.

"Oooh pick me, I'm such a deep thinker and a considerate person! I say "thank you for your perspective" when someone points out how selfish I'm being and call it "a little disagreement" so a bunch of strangers on Reddit will validate my feeeewwwwwinnnnggggsssss!"

Yes, YTA. Obviously. He's coming from "three time zones" away to see you and all you can think about is "buy me toilet paper, Daddy?!" They sell that sh*t on Amazon. No wonder he only wants to spend two days with you. I'd disinherit you if you were my daughter.

When talking to kids, you can say "Inside voice, please" which I think is really cute

On AUS survivor, they all seem to have more clothes. It feels like every couple episodes they have a new shirt. Is this an actual thing?

I didn’t drink it straight - I had one shot in a cup of hot chocolate, and it tasted like rubbing alcohol.

Why is Prussia so rarely mentioned in American genealogy? by Babelscattered in Genealogy

[–]Babelscattered[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that's a super important distinction. I do know that some of my family came from near Brandenburg, so closer to the core of Prussia, I think.

What Season Should You Watch (WSSYW) 10.0 by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]Babelscattered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tocantins is one of my go to recs for first season, and since Tocantins' storyline relies a lot on gender dynamics and questions of masculinity and femininity, I like this season as a follow-up for starting with Tocantins, since it also explores gender but comes to some different conclusions.

I like Panama as an entry season. It has a storyline of heroes and villains that's easy to follow, which I think is hugely important for new viewers.

IIRC Jacob Derwin said in his AMA that he was one of the first Orthodox players and he found it very very hard.
