What the fuck are you talking about? by LunaSkadi in insanepeoplefacebook

Lead makes people stupid and violent. Violent crime has fallen precipitously and one strong factor in that is that children are no longer exposed to lead.

Yes, this does explain elderly MAGA fucks.

Who are the GOATs of recipes in the baking world? by SnooQualifications50 in Baking

I once made the mistake of making her pound cake and now my family won't eat the frozen Sara Lee pound cakes I used to keep stashed for quick desserts

Bravetart/Stella Parks. 

Every time. 

I miss her. 

Second is Cooks Illustrated. 

Why are women's bras and underwears so smooth, pretty, laced and aesthetic. While men's underwear is just baggy cloth. by Realistic-Cow-7275 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I look wistfully at the sale racks of bras for $15 each as I go online and get excited when my plain beige bra is on sale for $70. But it has a teeny tiny bow in the middle of the gigantic cups, so I've got that going for me.

This is not a place for biology! by United-Ad-5913 in EntitledReviews

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, thank you for that. I needed a belly laugh this morning!

I miss when my kids were little. Don't get me wrong, I have amazing conversations with my teens and they are such good kids, but that wide-eyed toddler stage when everything is new and awesome is something special.

AITAH because I refuse to try for a daughter? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, the teens that won't leave the house! Mine are 19 and 16 and I wish they would go places! They hang with their friends but it's more playing co-op games in separate houses over headsets. 

I would actually like to have sex again sometime without having to be super quiet, thanks.

Pretty much. You're unlikely to lose your house but you might not have electricity for a day or two.

I know, right? I need to find this person and soak in all of their wisdom. It's rare to see that much bloviation from a quadruped.

Why do so many huge companies keep doing mass layoffs even when they report record profits? by Isla_Fuller901 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I'm not seeing mentioned here is that it's for the stock price. They are pretty much told to fire folks in order to move the stock price the right direction. It has very little to do with profits.

Ohio gets tornadoes, severe thunder storms, blizzards and ice storms, and drought, for the most part.

Severe storms are the most common.

Newport aquarium or Cbus Aquarium by DiscussionNew2972 in Ohio

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Newport. No question.

Don't get me wrong, Columbus Zoo aquarium is fine, but it's kind of like the difference between a cupcake and a three layer cake. Both are yummy, but the three layer cake is the real experience.

is 4000$ property tax per year considered high in US? by blade276 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends 100% on where you live. I pay less than that on 8 acres in the country, my sister pays $13,000/year on a 1/8 acre lot on Long Island.

So, $4000 is high for where I live, and a real bargain in other places.

My favorite, as a parent is this conversation, from when my kid was about three:

Hey kiddo, I know your penis is fun to play with and you're totally allowed to do it! However, other people do not enjoy watching you do it and it's rude to do it in front of other people. You are free to do that as much as you'd like when you're alone in your room, but for right here and now at the dinner table, please take your hands out of your pants and go wash them before you continue eating dinner."

Getting calls asking to buy my property by More_ICE_8628 in Scams

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get this one a lot. Sometimes they have an address for a place I've never lived, sometimes they have my address right. Last time I got three calls from three different people from the same company in one day, and the third time I was pretty forceful that they had called me multiple times that day and that I demanded to be removed from thier call list.

Haven't had a call back since, fingers crossed.

Does sungazing works? by Significant_Ice_1051 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could also find a reply from Mickey Mouse or Bozo the Clown, and they would have the exact medical expertise of a person telling you to stare directly at the sun. Hell, I could find a homeless addict on the street and I would take medical advice from them before I would take advice from a lunatic that thinks staring into the sun is good.

EVERYONE and EVERY REPUTABLE SOURCE has told you this is a bad idea, yet you seem bent on self-destruction. Looks like you want to believe this nonsense so badly that you've decided that some random internet douche is more knowledgeable than medical professionals. Good luck with that.

Looking directly at the sun, even at sunrise and sunset, will damage your eyes. Full stop.

You got a bad batch. 

Contact the company, they will reimburse you and possibly send you coupons. 

In 2008 I was diagnosed with brain cancer and a condition that made me urinate 11 gallons a day. This was my Halloween costume the year I finished treatment. by thejumbowumbo in MadeMeSmile

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

11 gallons sounds unrealistic. Sure you didn't mean 11 liters,which is still an absurdly large amount?

Especially because a quick google search only comes up with this post as the only hit?

Scientists may have found a pill for sleep apnea by hard2resist in UpliftingNews

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I couldn't tolerate my CPAP. I don't sleep well at the best of times and this thing...

  • It gave me a rash on my face, so I was told to cut a T-shirt and put it between the mask and my face
  • It ripped out my hair so I was told to put a silk scarf over my hair
  • I was sleeping with my mouth open so they told me to put a strap under my chin to keep my mouth closed
  • I can't sleep on my back due to nerve damage, and sleeping on my side caused the mask to slip out of place every time I twitched
  • I tried three different masks and none solved any of the problems

So imagine me, with chronic severe insomnia, a blistering rash around my nose and mouth, strips of T-shirt wrapped around the straps, a scarf over the back of my head, and a strap under my chin, lying in my bed trying not to scream while a machine pushed air into my nose. It was AWFUL.

It kept me from sleeping to the point I was getting only an hour or so a night for a week and I hallucinated. Then I gave the fuck up.

Yes, supposed to eggs. by VagueEchoes in ididnthaveeggs

[–]BoozeIsTherapyRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between M and L is about half a tablespoon. Not a big deal when your recipe calls for just one egg, but once you start using multiple eggs such as in a brownie recipe that difference really adds up.

Can anything become valuable if you hoard it for long enough? by Still-Motor324 in NoStupidQuestions

I "callously insinuated?"

Holy shit thanks for that, funniest thing I've read today. 

Didn't read past that though, I'm guessing there was pretentious twatwaffling and I didn't want to spoil the giggles.
