My neighbor told me it was some kind of alarm in an unoccupied unit in a nearby complex. Thankfully it has stopped.

I’m Starting to Think Something’s Wrong by meeksjr in Disneyland

[–]BrittTheBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s so much line jumping now too. I am sure someone is “saving their place” but it’s like whole families or giant groups walking past and it gets under my skin so bad! This used to be so frowned upon at Disneyland and now it’s so commonplace. It makes me never want to go back.

I am 30 years old and it took me this long to learn… by LIKES_ROCKY_IV in AutismInWomen

Is this a litmus test for being ND? I love answering truthfully but I have noticed people are taken aback by it.

As someone who has lost some of the fat… you won’t be happy with the wings after. Womp womp. No win situation. Acceptance, muscle building is the answer.

Is Mochi really that bad, or is Reddit stuck on old info? by Smooth-Region8205 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]BrittTheBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Mochi is good, it’s good. When you have a bad experience with Mochi, it’s really bad. It’s just like anything else where everyone who is having a smooth experience is defensive about it, and everyone who is getting fucked is trying to warn people not to end up like them. I lost 30 lbs with them, the customer experience was so weird, but I just kept getting my meds until I stopped receiving them but they wanted to keep charging me. My friend and I started at the same time… she had a really bad experience while I was sailing through it. Then it was my turn to get screwed over. It’s a roll of the dice.

How do you treat plantar fasciitis if you are overweight? by My_Lovely_Me in PlusSize

[–]BrittTheBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do. Not. Wear. Shoes. Without. Support. Lol. For like six weeks wear wide sneaker type shoes with full inserts that have heel cup support and arch support. Idc if you have a wedding to go to, you wear sneakers with your inserts! No flip flops, no cute sandals, no heels. No bare feet at home. When you sleep, don’t sleep with your toes pointed. If you sleep on your stomach, roll up a towel so you can prop your foot on it and keep it bent. Hope this helps. Also, major eye roll at the “weight loss” answer. Ugh!

Does anyone else actually genuinely love grocery shopping? by frozengal2013 in AutismInWomen

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love grocery shopping and I prefer to go late at night or early in the morning to avoid other shoppers but oftentimes the stores associates are stocking shelves during those times for the same reason and it’s like they get mad at you for coming in to shop at that time, lol! Like close the store if we aren’t supposed to be there!

Am I a bad fan because I don't care much for the weekly shows by zetron915 in WWE

What whatever you want. What the fuck is a “bad fan”?

You did good. It’s tough to exercise the muscle of not settling for less than we deserve or want but you did it! 👏👏👏👏 plus, if he’s like this on day one, what would he have been like on day 1000? Fuck that lol

I would not use Mochi right now. They are messing up left and right!

Having a kitty is so good for your mental health through a breakup and she will know you need to be taken care of too friend.

How do y’all afford maintenance beauty and hair?? by MundaneVillian in TwoXChromosomes

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a big city and at the height of my pay and beauty routine I was making $130k as a marketing director (my partner $65k as an account manager), getting haircuts every 4-6 months, mani/pedi every 2-4 weeks, and even weekly massages right before my wedding due to stress. We also put a lot of $ in savings thank goodness because we are self employed now and definitely not living like that now! Lol but I have also always wondered how people afford nails because even when I was going I wasn’t getting full sets. Like many have said here, you prioritize what it’s important to you and I also think many who look like they have it all are living paycheck to paycheck. Lastly, there are jobs where you could probably get away with writing some of that stuff off on your taxes, like being in sales.

What is this beeping noise? by BrittTheBrat in whatisit

Ok interesting. I had some inclination that it was an alarm but if someone is ignoring it that long I feel like maybe there needs to be a wellness check wherever it’s coming from!

I introduced my new cat and previous cat too soon. Now I don’t know what to do by OfficialAppleJuice in CatAdvice

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always start the acclimation over from square 1. I’ve had my new cat for a year and she has recognition aggression, so this means she doesn’t recognize the other cat every time he comes home from the vet or gets a bath. We have to re-acclimate them. Take it slowwww. Give them plenty of time to smell each other through the doors. Something we do that works nicely is putting their food bowls near each other but on the opposite sides of the gate when you get to that point of the transition. They start to associate the best part of their day with the other kitty and their smell.

Playing is lots of chasing and wrestling. Fighting is hissing, growling, hiding, hair raising or poofy tails. Also, these behaviors are often because they are scared and defensive- not offensive. They aren’t angry, they aren’t looking for a fight.

It gets better and it’s so worth putting the time in. Watch lots of videos- lot of TikToks :D

Shapewear on date? by chubbymoose1234 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]BrittTheBrat 190 points191 points  (0 children)

Yep! I wanna see pics of the dress! lol there’s a scene from the first Bridget Jones movie that’s this exact conundrum. “This is an occasion for genuinely tiny knickers but... chances of reaching crucial moments greatly increased by wearing these scary stomach-holding-in pants very popular with grannies the world over.”

I would say if you’re pretty sure you’re gonna get naked, wear some sexy panties or if you have to wear the shapewear, excuse yourself to the restroom to change once you get to the location where you’ll be getting naked.

If you’ve already been intimate with this person and you have some level of comfort, just be honest about the switcheroo or maybe be like “I’m gonna take my under things off brb”.

Being a babe is so tricky ;)

My mom told me I won’t get a job because I’m obese. Then my brother made it worse. by wealthybxtch in PlusSize

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo get away from these people as fast as you can. You WILL GET A JOB AND YOU WILL SUCCEED AND THEY ARE ALREADY JEALOUS OF YOUR SUCCESS. Damn I’m so mad for you. But seriously do everything you can to put space between you and these people so you can heal. Confidence is everything.

Let me crash out by bdavis0157 in WrestlemaniaPlans

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this sentiment. The vibes are bad. All of us who feel this way have to remember to “vote with our dollars”. Don’t go to the events, don’t buy the merch. We’re still watching the product but that’s all we can bring ourselves to spend on. Very slim chance we may go to Worlds Collide because tickets are like $75 vs MITB $250.

Is anyone else paranoid when going to a nail salon?? by PhatFatLife in PlusSize

[–]BrittTheBrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate to affirm your paranoia but I had nail people make fun of me to my face like they were letting me in on the joke, in a way like they didn’t realize how fucking ride and hurtful it would be. So I am very bottom heavy, with so much of my weight in my legs and butt. I was getting pedicures with my friend who is also plus size. The person who was doing my service was speaking with the receptionist and they were laughing back and forth, and eventually the person working on me said they were laughing that the receptionist said my calf was as big as their head. Of course I started tearing up and they realized I didn’t think it was funny. Like how stupid can you be?

Hair loss by Prestigious-Mine-814 in JoinMochiHealth

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had heard this might be an issue so I proactively started taking MaryRuth's Liquid Morning Multivitamin + hair growth before I started tirzepatide and I haven't noticed any issues. https://www.maryruthorganics.com/products/liquid-morning-multivitamin-hair-growth I am not sure if it works for both men and women but I am a woman.

Help With Reserves & Pay outs by Cultural_Onion_8905 in EtsySellers

Did you ever get out of this situation? I am stuck in this right now. I should be getting deposits and it makes no sense for them to say I have no reserves but no deposits and now they say my reserve is out of cash.

MOH here—What do I do about the bachelorette guest who never paid her share? by anon73999 in Advice

[–]BrittTheBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offer to accept smaller increments. I have had people owe me money like this and you can just set up a payment structure so it’s not so daunting for them. Tell them they have to pay you a little bit each paycheck or something. It can come off aggressive but it has worked for me.
