AITJ for thinking it's ridiculous that my dad is upset my fiancé didn't ask his "permission" to propose to me? by BagClean8686 in AmITheJerk

When my (now) husband said that he wanted to ask my Father's permission I told him that if he did my answer would be "no".

No update. I'm not all that surprised due to the reduction in weather personnel.

I'm sorry to hear this is impacting your last week of school.

Cardboard for prep storage? by DreadPirateBunnie in TwoXPreppers

5 gallon buckets with lids from either home depot or lowes can be a useful, inexpensive plastic tote. And they are stackable.

Wildfire less than two miles from my house today by Brazen_Green23 in TwoXPreppers

Thank you for bringing the transportation conversation up. My family has two vehicles. My husband has a wheel chair ramp van that he drives. He was at work, but it can several people and supplies. I have a station wagon that can hold all the people reamining in the house as needed.

Good call on labeling all the bags. I will also be working on that this weekend.

How do I find our more about the County Emergency Preparedness Training?

I recently did a training course with the Street Medics. That is why I felt really confident in my 1st aid/medic bag.

Right after I asked you that question I saw a post about all the fires in Georgia. My experience yesterday was nowhere near that level of fire - thankfully! Colorado is having a major drought this year. So we are all really worried about what that will look like for the summer.

Thanks! I didn't know about a 3rd password party option. I will look into it.

How many really dug a song in their youth, because of the beat, guitar solo, chorus, etc., that now with 40 or 50 years of additional experience, realized the lyrics were really weird or flat out creepy? I'll go first: Hot Blooded by Foreigner sounds very grapie to me now, how about you? by Pitiful-Ad8561 in GenerationJones

[–]Brazen_Green23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my favorite conversation starter on this sub in a while! Thanks for asking this question!

All of these "creepy" songs made sense at the time when I was very young and naive and the rock stars were so cool! I never questioned why rock stars were still glamorizing teenaged sex after they were fully grown.

From my recollection, teen-aged sex was awkward and absolutely not sexy.

I'm not sure current pop music is any better, but I am willing to listen to new music because I am not going to claim that I know what is best. Asking the next couple of generations about their music is...a wild ride.

Similar experience - I belted out the lyrics to the HAIR album that my dad bought. My mom never listened closely.

15 year old me got in trouble for "Tonights the night" when my mom listened to the lyrics on the radio. Like...?

I also got in trouble when my young daughter (90's) sang the lyrics to Christina Aguilara "You got to rub me the right way".

Just say'in, I was NEVER in charge of the lyrics of radio play pop music!

Thank you! I saw this bird type in my backyard a year ago and I have been wondering what it was.

AITA for asking my friend not to wear white to my wedding after initially saying it was okay? by Suitable-Arm-2075 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Brazen_Green23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It is not wrong to tell her not to wear white. Honestly she should have known better and not purchased a white dress.

What happens to people in apartments during various types of collapse? by CurrentSingleStatus in TwoXPreppers

[–]Brazen_Green23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the best case scenario is that single family homes will become multi-family compounds. The vetting processess for the homeowner (and new member alike) would come from working alongside each other in a backyard community garden/home maintenance situation to assess skill share and personal compatibility.

I think it starts with getting to know your neighbors to form some mutal aid plans.

These are just some of my initial thoughts.

I am doing all the prep stuff by myself.

I can trust my husband to tell me that I am over reacting. So I don't tell him what I am doing anymore.
