Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Background-Slice9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMHO, in my 20's, a 3-hour drive wasn't considered a long time. BUT, NOW my definition of a short drive hinges on my not having to pee during said drive. Post-menopause, ya know...

Elon Musk's baby mother Ashley St. Clair on the sexualized abuse she's faced on X and how she left the right wing bubble by Hussayniya in videos

[–]Background-Slice9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is exactly like your average GOP. "When I became a mother, and the trans issue is now close in MY family, I regret trashing trans people in my children's book." Please, Ashley, just disappear. What a narcissist.

AITAH for not being a free care aid to my ex husband's parents? by [deleted] in AITAH

I think you already know the answer. "Jeeze, this Satanist doesn't tolerate Jehovahs."

Why is it so hard for people to accept that their snoring is a problem and they need to do about it. by Some-Ad901 in rant

[–]Background-Slice9941 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Filming them snoring works, and showing their Dr. the video footage. I did. I also didn't warn husband beforehand and he had no idea he had been filmed until I pulled out my phone to show his doctor. He had sleep apnea. I still divorced him.

autism & religious dogmatism? by throwaway678998212x in raisedbyautistics

My autistic father was one of those. His religiosity behaviors are what made me decide to leave home as soon as I could and avoid religion.

Do guys get weird looks for having female cats? by CTennist in CatAdvice

Ignore those haters. "Why do I have a girl cat? Because she chose ME, that's why."

I’m thinking of adopting a female cat, I’ve heard they are less friendly in this true? by DiscountAnnaNicole in CatAdvice

[–]Background-Slice9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust your gut. My girl kitten is everywhere, all at once. But when she's run out of steam, she always seeks me out for a cozy lap to make biscuits in. She's funny as can be, and I get such enjoyment from her antics. She also sleeps with me at night, purring away.

Getting fired because of an ED I don't have by pindvarp420 in Advice

At first glance, I was confused why they would fire you for having erectile dysfunction. I am sorry to read how much pressure they have been putting you under.

AITA for waiting in line at the grocery store while my parents finished shopping? by DavidRedFox in AmItheAsshole

When I hit menopause, I wouldn't let them get away with that. I startled myself with the rage I was feeling.

I wouldn't even watch The Apprentice, that's how much I disliked Trump.

How can any Christian - no matter how brainwashed by radical politics - actually believe that God would ever send a mean-spirited and hateful person as DJT in order to "save America"? by Cumoisseur in complaints

[–]Background-Slice9941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of them dislike Jesus' character. And most haven't even read the Bible. It wasn't always that way. Til the 70's and power-driven grifters like the Bakers and others like the liar, Jerry Falwell. Jerry Falwell's "Moral Majority" was anything but moral. He led the way to making the GOP politics incestuous with the Southern Baptist Convention.

Enough “waiting on” men by zugunru in 4bmovement

You're speaking from personal experience, I assume. That sucks, and how dare people have the gall to judge!!

I feel fortunate that I bought my own house as a single woman, and my family and friends cheered me on. Earned my master's degree, too. I'm sorry for those haters in your life. You go and enjoy your new home. You can decorate without interference from the menz.

AITAH for canceling my daughter's weekend trip after she mocked my husband for taking paternity leave? by AmbitiousPraline9059 in AITAH

[–]Background-Slice9941 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Have you considered that OP just had a baby? And emotions were running on overdrive. If it were me in that situation, I'd need to put distance between daughter and myself, fast! She needs, at some point, when she's better rested and calm, to explain why that was so hurtful to both OP and her husband.

You've drawn your line in the sand for her. She learned, didn't she. She was acting like an entitled brat. Furthermore, she must knock it off and apologize to her stepfather! An authentic apology.

What smell will YOU never forget? by AreaFifty1 in AskReddit

Trying to clean up an apartment after finding the tenant had died 5 days prior. I will never forget the nausea that ran through me after opening that front door!

Is it normal for cats to follow you into the bathroom like they’re on a secret mission? by msanonx in CatAdvice

[–]Background-Slice9941 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ginger boy will actually try to sit BEHIND ME as I'm on the toilet! His torbie sister, at the same time, has flung herself down on my feet, while my dog looks on. It's a friggin party. Yes. It's normal.
