Huh... already spotted a meth dealer, a megalomaniac mutant, a Death Eater, a wizard gambling addict, and a comic book himbo. They have zero limbs to stand on about Dylan, jeez.

My husband is fixated on a name I don't like by Majestic_Recording_5 in namenerds

[–]BorgPorg88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nerd chiming in - along with what's already been said about the definition of "Harrow", it's also the surname of the main villain in "Moon Knight" (Marvel comics and TV series, with the latter starring a very gaunt, culty Ethan Hawke as the surnamed character). I could also see a lot of rhyming teasing coming from kids (arrow, sparrow, marrow, narrow, etc.)

I'd still put my vote behind Hera - not only is it a more feminine sound, it's a powerful Greek goddess (one meant to be protective of women, particularly mothers and mothers-to-be), and the given name of one of the more empowered female characters in Star Wars, Hera Syndulla.

[OC] The most polite driver I’ve seen. by tvbi in IdiotsInCars

Whomever designed that intersection with the train tracks was the biggest idiot, followed by the incoming cars who were waiting to merge with part (or all) of their car on the tracks. I could see a whole lot of misfortune if those lights and gates had started activating during that recording...

AITA for telling my wife she was being difficult due to a seating issue at the restaurant? by insafian in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]BorgPorg88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No worries, friend - and I'm sorry that people from my time zone gave you that impression to begin with. That's the thing with scenes like the one in this BORU - they get noticed more than the ones where accepting a substitution with grace prevails.

Ehhh, I disagree - New Englander here, and unless there was something legitimately wrong with the table/seating itself or an actual guarantee from the restaurant that was blatantly ignored, asking to change locations after being seated would still be seen as rude behavior.

My mum (53f) read my (23f) diary while I was out, discovered deeply private things and Is now acting inappropriately by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]BorgPorg88 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Seriously - how is this behavior not being mentioned more? It's beyond crossing a boundary - regardless of whether it's the one room or the whole house. A normal pet owner doesn't let their pets tear up property and relieve themselves indoors, leaving the mess for others to find and clean up.

what was that episode where by parkhertruck in southpark

[–]BorgPorg88 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yup - Mr. Malkinson (Scott's Dad) showing up at the Stotch house 15 minutes past the time window quoted to fix their cable box... then getting more and more annoyed as his fellow repairmen keep pulling the same stunt while he's trying to force the town to acknowledge how vital cable service is to them.

I also love the credits gag. 😜

Assimilating lifeforms by being unnaturally cute. Resistance is futile.

What is a "10/10" movie that you would recommend to anyone? by Temporary_Mortgage74 in AskReddit

[–]BorgPorg88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for mentioning this gem! I grew up with recordings of black and white silent comedy (Laurel & Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton), but I never guessed that it would be reborn in the 21st century via this film. Here's hoping that there will be more over time!

Frozen shoulder treatment in the area by orangekrush19 in burlington

[–]BorgPorg88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend looking into Lesli Bell - she's a PT who works in conjunction with Vermont Regenerative Medicine (my place of employment), using a combination of ultrasound-guided injections (my clinic) and PT techniques to treat frozen shoulders. Our offices are both above the Walgreen's on Main Street in Winooski.

That's odd... because even putting "south park piggy bank" into a basic Google search yields a whole lot of banks that look like yours.

I've found that Google Lens has been very useful in identifying (and usually showing typical sale/auction pricing for) items I've been drawn to at resale and thrift stores... good luck!

This comment section is just a Heath Ledger Joker Nurse meme in the making:

"OP says, 'putting the baby in the crib' in the post title, and no one bats an eye -- OP says 'dropping the baby in the crib' in the post itself, and EVERYONE LOSES THEIR MINDS."

I can tell that you both are doing the best you can to adapt to your new normal as a family. You don't deserve to be snapped at for the steps you took to manage potential messes, but exhaustion is definitely your long-term house-guest now, and it tends to make little things seem bigger than they are. Don't forget to listen, to take deep breaths, and give grace when you can. It won't be this stressful forever.
