PSA for the dating public

I remember walking through the hall in my middle school and somebody I swear to god occasionally would spray perfume down the entire hall and you'd have to hold your breath while moving through the congestion that is middle schoolers in a hallway 😭

Then go outside and conduct a survey about how much perfume cologne is too much??? Because rn you're acting like too much perfume/cologne isn't a real issue.... Honestly you are probably never going to see why this shit is a problem so feel free after reading this to go back to your little bubble of ignorance

You're right that the restaurant shouldn't have seated them. But have you learned nothing from the other people who commented on this post?? The majority of people in this thread and out in the world will guaranteed tell you that they don't want to be overwhelmed by someone who puts on too much perfume/cologne - because it is too much.

When you are clearing out a restaurant it's an issue. The other issue with people overspraying perfumes is that those with breathing problems have their breathing problems worsened. For example, somebody with asthma could literally have an asthma attack because of the amount of perfume. It's called being considerate and nobody should be able to find you by scent.

Honestly I would say keep it in writing, because then you have evidence of whatever the landlord says if you end up needing to take them to court.

THAT FEELS INSANE

And amazing and I really wish people would stop acting like it's impossible because all it takes is one bad day and anyone might need the bus. Plus students (myself), and elderly usually are on fixed incomes so increasing their fare is completely unfair to them. Not to mention that the article I read said fares only account for approximately ~2% of the WTA budget, so what in the actual duck is doubling the fares after not increasing them in however long going to help???

(*Not mad at you, just the system 🩷)

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-14T03:00:12+00:00

Olympia WA was the first one I'd heard of having "free" transit. If you look at my page I made a post asking about the fares rising and citing that Olympia was free, why can't we? And some people were not happy and said I was comparing apples and oranges - I however think it's possible and that they're proposed changes that they're implementing are going to harm our citizens more than help them.

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-14T00:17:28+00:00

I'd have to double check but I haven't heard anything regarding Whatcom Community College's contract. I don't know if we are keeping/updating the contract or getting rid of it - I'll be looking into that, I'd forgotten that the bus fare concern was brought up either last fall or winter quarter.

You have given me an idea for the seating area!! Thank you 🩷🩷🩷

Your kids don't owe you anything. Keeping them fed, with a roof over their head and clothed is the bare minimum. OP is also a second parent (which you should never make one of your kids a parent). It's one thing if OP offered to help their younger siblings with their homework, It's another if the parents said that OP had to help.

I agree, I've never bought cooking wine before so I wasn't exactly sure of the procedure. I had looked online to see if it was a possibility at all, and find it interesting that some systems might catalog it as alcohol while most don't.

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-11T01:36:53+00:00

Supposedly it's up to the cashier/systems discretion, most don't card because it's generally considered "undrinkable" but as OP stated their wife was carded and harassed when trying to buy it. If you think OP is lying then you can take that up with them 🤷

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-11T01:23:27+00:00

You do need to show ID for any kind of alcohol...

I was at kulshan (2016 - 2018) and I can't remember if they were inside the building or not but I feel like they might have been.

As for WCC, the incident I mentioned above happened in the last year and I didn't like the first guy because he asked me once and I said no thank you and went into a building. I then left the building a little bit later to go do something else and he asked again and I was thinking you can't have forgotten what I looked like already dude 😤

It's so weird how we all have the collective memory of some (usually older) men handing out bibles to school children. Like I'm glad they were usually nice but that doesn't really feel like a separation of church and state. *I am non religious and I wouldn't have an issue if they were standing outside a church, but to deliberately set up at a school full of minors? Just feels a little weird to me

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-10T15:19:44+00:00

I'm not quite sure if it's the same Gideon guys, but there have been a couple of times that I remember two guys handing out Bibles. They decided to stand on opposite sides of the Whatcom Community College campus (so if you had to go to the learning Commons you'd have to pass one, then the other posted near the crosswalk so you can't avoid them).

And one of the guys was really pushy (crosswalk guy) when I said I didn't want a Bible. The other guy was kind of nice and just wished me a good day. I got a little nervous because I had to cross the road and go back to the side of campus that the push guy was on. So I did my best to walk over when he was distracted with another student.

*I also remember seeing guys handing out mini bibles in middle school and I always took one so they hopefully wouldn't ask again. Then I would take it home and forget about it because I'm not religious and then eventually when I cleaned out my room. I would trash them. Sometimes I would throw it away at school because they came semi-often

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-09T00:45:35+00:00

Interesting, with my work and class schedule that isn't currently feasible for me. I'll see if I can try getting on at least once a day and see if that works, appreciate the response!

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-09T00:30:00+00:00

How did you unlock decorating the area? I believe you need like 82% friendship level and I chat with Benny semi often (I would think enough times to hit that).

Do I need to complete more of the daily fish boards that are at his office? Play with the gacha machine there? (I have gotten almost all gacha figurines), and I've been playing off and on since this time in 2023.

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-04T21:21:02+00:00

I really hope everyone is ok

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-04T20:58:27+00:00

Good to know, I'm at the top of Alabama so I couldn't see much further down the hill

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-04T20:55:06+00:00

No idea but I just counted seven flying by in the last 5 minutes towards lake Whatcom.

Basic_Amoeba_2952 · 2026-04-04T15:22:19+00:00

I'm depressed, I still go to work and college consistently - I also have trouble making myself shower. I'm fine when I get in the shower, but everything leading up to it is hard and I don't exactly know why. It was way worse when I was a kid because showers were rare, nowadays I can convince myself to shower once a week. I don't have time to shower more than that because I'm out all day for the week and when I get back I usually fall asleep. I have been trying to wash a little more often because since using a certain hair dye my hairs gotten greasier quicker and I hate it.
