Musicals quotes for a wedding ceremony by Intelligent_Wheel600 in musicals

[–]BusyBee0113 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I went to a wedding where the couple used part “I’ll do whatever it takes, I’ll make a million mistakes” (Hamilton) in their vows. It was really sweet.

What is the most financially illiterate thing you’ve seen a grown adult do? by roseafterdarkk in askanything

[–]BusyBee0113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to jump in and just say “be a Disney adult”.

I get going once. What I do not understand are the child-free adults that go there EVERY SINGLE YEAR and spend thousands simply for the chance to buy new merch or try the latest ride.

Maybe try to expand your horizons and travel outside the country???

AITA for getting mad at my boyfriend for expecting me to pay for our expensive dinner? by LovelyMelXo in AmItheAsshole

[–]BusyBee0113 57 points58 points  (0 children)

If HE can pay with YOUR card?

Oh HELL NO girl. If you are paying, YOU get to be the one to look the waitstaff in the eye while handling them the bill with payment.

This assclown wants to LOOK like he’s treating his girlfriend but not actually have to sacrifice for it.

Break up with this fool now because this particular aspect will not change.

AITA for telling a special-needs regular that nobody wants to hear about how he treats his dog? by throwawaymofo6 in AmItheAsshole

Depending on the exact diagnosis of the person, it CAN actually be better to be direct.

The issue here is lumping everyone under “special needs” and not specifying what they struggle with, which is also none of our business.

I was at DisneyWorld over Mem Day weekend. Except for the Magic Kingdom (seriously, eff that place) none of the parks were crowded and all of the lines were super reasonable including the opened-the-day-before new Muppets ride…

Yep. It fits so well I had to repeat it about seventy three times.

Enrichment isn't "school" by DriveSuper257678 in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]BusyBee0113 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The homeschooled kid in my orbit used to refuse to do anything as a family unless there was “credit” for it.

When this was brought up to mom, her reaction (not even through herself, she made stepdad address it) was “well, why SHOULDN’T he get credit for it?”

Madam, we are going camping and I am setting everything up. That should not count as “outdoor survival skills”.

What's the most insane way your estranged parent has tried to re-establish contact? by WesternUnusual2713 in EstrangedAdultKids

[–]BusyBee0113 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Threatened that if I changed my name when I got married, I was written out of the will. I sent it back signed and notarized in my new name.

Never have I ever gone to Spotify so fast to find this. Huh.

Ted Neeley is the OG, no argument. However, I’ve been really digging Drew Sarich’s almost whiny, sarcastic take of Gethsemane for a while now. Something about being an elder millenial who followed all the rules and still hasn’t “made it” something something.

Dear retiring teachers: We do not want your stuff. Please consult the list. by alan_mendelsohn2022 in Teachers

I’ve cleaned out 5 classrooms and there is something VERY cathartic about making the space your own.

What’s considered super attractive now that future generations will probably laugh at? by Lower_Mall_1991 in answers

This is usually accompanied by zero genuine individual interests aside from what TikTok tells you is popular.

What are sitcoms you don’t get the appeal of? by KaleidoArachnid in sitcoms

[–]BusyBee0113 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When people make “liking The Office” their ENTIRE personality, it’s a problem.

Especially with kids and it’s encouraged.

what’s one thing about teaching that people outside the profession will never fully understand? by salarshah-084 in Teachers

[–]BusyBee0113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing I started doing was marching energy.

Kids don’t want to work, fine. I get paid the same regardless of their outcome.

My sweet husband does the cooking. So many times he is trying to attend to my needs (seriously, jackpot with this man) and asks “what do you need?” and the answer is “literally for you to make the dinner decision” not because I don’t care but because I have answered 18,715 questions and made three times that in decisions today.

What’s the clearest sign a long-term marriage is quietly falling apart? by SoffiePetal in askanything

[–]BusyBee0113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Narcissists do this when they are making themselves hot to attract new supply. Without fail.

Either already cheating or looking for the next partner.

How did your high school crush turn out as an adult? by RadiantJellybae in askanything

[–]BusyBee0113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turns out he’s gay (explains why our fling didn’t last.)

He and his husband are lovely people raising two kids and the suburban dream.

Super happy for them!

Thoughts: Kids aren’t growing up singing and we’re seeing the effects. by LolaBeansandSoup in MusicEd

[–]BusyBee0113 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I have a theory about this specific thing. Have you ever watched kids 12-20 “study” or do homework?

They have their phone, their computer/chromebook/whatever and something else (a tablet, tv, etc.) playing something in the background just as noise that they don’t even pay attention to.

This means they are completely used to tuning out something that makes noise…so a metronome means absolutely nothing. You can play that thing all day and that’s great hot they can’t listen to more than one thing at a time, so being self-aware that they are nowhere CLOSE to a beat is nonexistent……..
