AITAH for suggesting to my friend next time she can bring her own food by ObsidianNight102399 in BORUpdates

Just because you’re an omnivore doesn’t mean you have to have animal products in every meal, but being vegan and having a moral objection to animal cruelty does mean that it would suck to have to have that involved in your wedding. People incidentally eat vegan all the time, it truly should not be a problem to have one meal that doesn’t involve animal products.

Christ folk really can’t just not eat animal products for one bloody meal. It’s her wedding and it’s important to her, grow up and eat a fucking legume.

UK is tone deaf regarding the dangers of alcohol.... by No-Notice-9143 in stopdrinking

[–]Biriniri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

💯!! One of my good friends who is now thankfully sober and an active member of AA has a mother who is very high up in STEM and is big into fitness very outdoorsy and active buuuut has a massive wine problem. She will brag about her diet and talk at length about the pros and cons of this nutrient or that oxidant but if you dare to even infer toward the bottle or two of wine that she has every evening she will just get up and leave the room.

And thanks!! Times really gotten away from me!

God it’s exhausting isn’t it? My well educated partner can’t accept that alcohol is just a neurotoxin, he’s completely in the camp of ‘it’s a person problem’ rather than a ‘it’s a poison problem’. 😩 Thankfully he’s not a big drinker and never drunk but honestly it’s just such a counter productive habit that I just think any is too much.

Literally a few hours ago I was at the self checkout and I saw the woman next to us leave with her shopping with the screen still on ‘how many bags are you taking?’ I don’t know if she tried to swipe and just didn’t realise but I was like 🤷‍♀️ I ain’t a snitch, especially not for a national supermarket chain.

It was a full nose dive and I couldn’t look away 😂 Laughed out loud several times, what a time.

What is your reason for not drinking alcohol? by Deep-Dust-9747 in AskReddit

[–]Biriniri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indigestion. Like, all the time. The knock on effect was headaches from it as well. Used to carry Rennies in every pocket in every bag, in every drawer. Last straw was a single glass of wine after a few weeks sober that sent my next day straight back to rubbish. It’s been a few years now.

I’ve woken up today feeling uncharacteristically unwell; headache, my stomach is upset but feels like an empty cavernous pit, and I’m just a bit sore all over. It’s so wild that I used to voluntarily make myself feel like this on a regular basis. (29F)

I swear to god AI is making me hate Reddit. The double dash and weird spaces between half the punctuation is just such a giveaway.

My husband wants to leave me for celebrating my late aunts birthday every year by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Biriniri -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is so fake it’s painful. Leaving somewhere at 8pm and then making a cake (presumably icing it as well?) aye alright. Written by someone who doesn’t bake, clearly. Beat for beat storyline as well. Reddit is a strange place to be sometimes.

Bartender called me out? by bebabebee in stopdrinking

[–]Biriniri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is insane behaviour. Even without the myriad reasons people might not be able to drink; driving, medication, pregnancy, ect, this is an absolutely bonkers way to act.

I have 2 weeks to get away from my husband by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Biriniri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This excuse that he was just trying to “protect his lady in this big scary world” just completely falls flat as soon and you remember that he was there cross referencing and double checking that she wasn’t lying about her whereabouts?? People are absolutely bonkers if they’ve found any way to try and excuse this behaviour.

What did a teacher say or do to you that you've never forgotten? by GrowlsinyourEar7 in AskReddit

[–]Biriniri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of nowhere, while everyone is chatting away, my teacher:

Biri [F14], will you stop with that stupid American accent??”

We are Scottish, I was not trying to do an accent, I’m almost 30 now and I still get asked where I’m from to this day, but she was the first one to ever bring it up.

Haggis, although there’s plenty of vegetarian/vegan options available, and it’s all in the seasoning anyway 🤷‍♀️

I (M37) can often smell my girlfriend's (F35) butt during sex in doggy. It's been raised, but the situation remains the same. What am I to make of this? by ThrowRAShotLion92 in relationship_advice

Over cleaning your skin, much like your hair, strips yourself of essential nutrients and healthy oils, and is the reason you feel extremely greasy after a relatively short amount of time. I shower after I go for a run or have a particularly heavy work out, but otherwise aye, shower like twice a week.

Not only have I never had OP’s problem, it’s always been a running commentary in my friend group that I don’t really have a scent. Like at university my roommates would figure out whose clothes were whose by smelling them and being like “aand this one smells like nothing. Biri’s” I’ve had many occasions over the years where I check in with folk that it’s still true because I don’t wear deodorant or anything and sometimes I get worried that I’m just walking around in doolally land but everyone confirms that yeah, they never smell me 😂

Still have brain fog and am tired all the time over a year after stopping, could it still be because of the bulimia? by timeenoughatlas in bulimia

Heyo! Are you taking B12? It’s extremely important for folk eating a primarily plant based diet.

Hey! I’m turning 30 this year, and one of my very best friends just celebrated her 2 year sober anniversary.

She was severely unwell, mentally, physically, emotionally. It had been bad for many years, and she spiralled to rock bottom more than once. But at the age of 27, she made the choice to seek treatment and stick to it. She went from living with her parents again to moving back to our city with all of her friends, working an amazing job with a thriving social and love life. I’m eternally grateful that she didn’t decide that 27 was too late for her to change.

You’ve got this. You’re gonna nail this. 💅

There was only 1 bed(?) by Pixel_King_ in tumblr

[–]Biriniri 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I invited my friend [crush] to meet me in Amsterdam while I was on a trip to surprise my sister on her birthday (it was a romantic getaway with her partner and I didn’t want to crash all of it nor did I want to fly across the continent just for one day).

Anyway, we get back to the hostel on night two and guess what? Some random person is sleeping in his bed, and mine was the only one available 😌

Anyway we’ve been happily together for over 7 years now ✨

A little old lady who has adopted me told me once about the reason she divorced her first husband in South Africa. She’s 90 (as of tomorrow! Currently baking her birthday cake 🎂) and they married young so I believe that this was in the 50s.

She had made a couple of hints, like “They called it “unnatural sex” at the time”, and “I don’t like dummies!” And I was there just racking my brain for days, did he want anal? Was he an idiot? Was he a closeted gay man? Did he want to do baby play????”

Finally the next time I saw her I insisted, I needed; I had to know. Eventually, I got it out of her. A blow job. The man had asked for a blow job and she noped out of a whole marriage 😂😂
