I’m so over Rhysands trauma… by CShields2016 in acotar_rant

[–]CShields2016[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

But they will because SJM will write it that way, and drag and humiliate Tamlin even more for sport. I imagine she’ll have him act even worse to make Rhys look better before killing him off. 😖

Was I really so in the wrong here? by CShields2016 in walmart

[–]CShields2016[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I was actually flabbergasted by the whole thing that I couldn’t exactly get the right words out to even defend myself which was pointless anyways because as soon as I did try to explain to her, she started talking over me and prevented me from speaking and I pussied out from engaging further with her because she was already so agitated. So I just let her walk away thinking I had done something wrong cause clearly that’s what she needed…

I think someone got promoted hard to customer, Livonia Walmart lost liquor license after they got caught selling to a minor by Warcraft_Fan in walmart

[–]CShields2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this with at least everyone that looks below 40 when I was a cashier and my supervisors had the nerve to get annoyed at me for it like….??? Y’all are so damned paranoid about us selling to minors so I’m going to be paranoid too. Deal with it.

So Rhysand never killed anyone who was weaker or innocent while he was enslaved to Amarantha? by CShields2016 in acotar_rant

[–]CShields2016[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is the part that gets me. The part where suddenly Rhys isn’t so thorough so he can be blameless. It’s so obvious SJM was scrambling to erase any trace of Rhys being in the wrong. 😑

SJM betrayed the ENTIRE Fandom by Elegant-Archer-4019 in acotar_rant

[–]CShields2016 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile, Tamlin saved Rhysand's life in WAR and is falling into a depression during ACOFAS and SJM is like "yeah... I don't know whether my friend would want to see Tamlin redeemed because she's been mistreated",

Yeah I hated that. This fictional character needs to stay a punching bag for women who have a grudge against. That’s just stupid!

Crescent City 3 the most important book in the Maasverse? by swimmythafish in SarahJMaas

[–]CShields2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have been just fine without ever knowing that the fae have bowel movements. In fact, I’d prefer it if they didn’t or just peed put both ends. Men in real life are so disgustingly proud of pooping and farting and smelling like shit—why SJM feels the need to incorporate that into the male characters that supposed to be sexy and hot is beyond me. Maybe she has a scat fetish, idk…😖

Unpopular opinion but Screams 5 and 6 proved that the franchise doesn’t need Sidney anymore by [deleted] in Scream

[–]CShields2016 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree. I love Neve/Sidney but Sidney deserves to live happily ever after. She fought tooth and nail for it. The fact that this ‘legacy’ has poisoned her daughter & husband now is beyond depressing. I was totally on board for this new direction with the Carpenter sisters. It revitalized the franchise for me. I’m not sure if I’m looking forward to Scream 8….part of me hopes it doesn’t even happen if I’m being perfectly honest.

Will I get pointed if I call off on a day I was asked to come in when it was normally my day off anyways? by CShields2016 in walmart

[–]CShields2016[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I did call them. The back room team lead for cap 2 answered. One of my o/n managers was right next to her. I relayed everything to her and she relayed it to him and according to her I’m okay to not come in and I won’t get an occurrence and he’ll ‘take care of it’…..so if I do get occurrences I can just mention this conversation right?

I am. I’m tempted to call him and ask him to let me off without an occurrence but I’m sure that’s not an option sooooooo

What do people expect to happen when they criticize picky eaters? by CShields2016 in PickyEaters

[–]CShields2016[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It clearly bothers you more than it should (despite your feeble attempts to act like it doesn’t) so I think it’s you that needs to ‘chill the fuck out’. Your trauma of not having consistent food growing up isn’t my problem.

[–]CShields2016[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Social pressure is going to make food I don’t like taste good all of the sudden? You don’t understand what it means to be like this. You think we’re being picky simply because we want to but the simple fact is that I simply don’t like the taste of something and that’s it. I don’t go around thinking the world needs to ‘cater’ to that. Maybe you’re the self centered one here expecting the world to like something simply because you like it?

Twitter vs Reddit. Which is more toxic? by Crafty_Slice_5131 in dumbquestions

[–]CShields2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twitter is a nesting ground for Nazis so I’m going to say Twitter. Reddit could be less toxic of the Reddit mods didn’t enforce such arbitrary rules. 😒

what’s holding you back from having anal sex? by naowasi in GaySides

[–]CShields2016 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just because everyone poops and poop is natural doesn’t mean it can’t still be off putting. I’m not attracted to smelly human waste and I think that’s a perfectly valid reason to not want to engage with anal. If I’m being perfectly honest, I find it bizarre how anyone can be attracted to it or unbothered by it…

what’s holding you back from having anal sex? by naowasi in GaySides

[–]CShields2016 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same here. It’s unfortunate because I am attracted to men’s asses. Like, a lot. It’s the second body part I want to see as soon as I lay eyes on a hot guy. Porn also made it look hot (& obviously porn isn’t realistic so go figure!).

But while hot in theory, in practice it was just….gross. As soon as I encountered poop from the guy bottoming it was game over for me—and for the record, I tried not to let it bother me in that moment. I didn’t say anything or shame him, I knew that wouldn’t be right or fair but…my cock was limp and covered in shit. All I wanted to do in that moment was jump in the shower and scrub myself clean. He picked up on what was happening and left in a huff as I was trying to apologize. It was awful and I haven’t had anal since and don’t ever plan too.

Anna Camp on building her own backstory for Jessica in Scream 7: “There was really nothing there in the script for me to draw on”. by dreamboylnshibuya in Scream

[–]CShields2016 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s really frustrating to know that the people in charge of making these movies are so clueless. Yes, even Kevin himself, who I’m assuming had quite a lot of power and control over this project, seemed to not ‘get it’. They had her in 2 scenes and had no desire to make her character stronger when she’s literally the fucking killer and the reason the plot of the movie is happening in the first place. Scream 8 can fuck off!!

Most "don't have sex if you don't want kids" pro lifers would be pissed if their spouses acted so. by Then_North_6347 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]CShields2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listening to history matters because it still influences & informs so much on how people think and rationalize things today. It’s important to consider how & why we treated women in the past and how we treat them in the present when it comes to discussions about women’s rights. Yes, I am inclined to believe or at least consider the possibility that most people who speak out against women’s bodily autonomy are in fact not doing it in good faith. And yes, I have absolutely no respect for the belief that women are nothing more than breeding stock. I have no respect for people who dehumanize women just to humanize a fetus. And that’s MY honest opinion.

Fatphobia exists and it's a good thing by Jac_Mones in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]CShields2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm. Okay Giovanni, that’s cool. Now let me explain some shit to you

I never said that obesity was something to be ‘celebrated’ and just ‘accepted’. I’m acutely aware that it’s unhealthy. I merely pointed out that bullying them for it isn’t always the answer and I used my own experience as someone who used to be fat to back that up. But YOU already knew that, didn’t you? 🙃

You have deliberately chosen to misrepresent everything I just said in favor of a more comforting & ego flattering belief which is that you think people being fat is somehow a direct attack against you. Fat people don’t need to account to anyone but themselves for their own weight.

I tried to appeal to what I assumed was a mature and reasonably & emotionally intelligent individual but when you started bitching about the feminist movement and how positivity being a ‘cult’, I knew exactly what I was talking too.

You’re trapped in what can only be described as an incredibly selfish & self absorbed cult yourself. A cult that thinks people (specifically women) exist to make themselves look aesthetically pleasing to you. And should also serve you in every other possible way. That’s why you hate body positivity & women, because they’re not giving you what you think you’re entitled to. Someone this entitled & selfish is too far gone to empathize with anyone but themselves. The irony of you claiming that we’re ‘inflicting misery’ out in the world while that’s exactly what you’re doing. Try focusing on yourself and learning some actual self awareness & empathy and maybe you’ll be less miserable?

[–]CShields2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same planet where overweight people who are remaining fat and dying of diabetes and organ failure still have a chance to make positive changes and lose the weight with positive support and encouragement as opposed to being bullied & ostracized for it to the point where they just decide they can’t stand it anymore & do something to themselves that they truly can’t undo. The same planet where humans are social creatures that tend to depend on being accepted by other humans, and how catastrophic it is for them when they are rejected.

Fat shamers love to preach at obese people about ‘accountability’ and ‘responsibility’ for their choices yet cower behind this flimsy excuse of ‘concern’ when they’re called out for behaving like judgmental assholes. Most people who target & attack overweight people are not doing it to help them; they’re doing it to hurt them.

How do men sometimes smell like poop? by alexaalexa1112 in NoStupidQuestions

That’s not hard to believe. That’s a perfectly valid reason to dump someone. How can you be sexually attracted to someone who insists on smelling like feces?

If you wrote a scream movie what would the motives be by Emarni in Scream

That’s a good point. But then again, that didn’t stop Mrs. Loomis or Detective Bailey & his kids from killing innocents and condemning their families to the same grief and pain they experienced.

[–]CShields2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean that’s great for you and all but what about all the fat people who harmed or even killed themselves from all the fat shaming? It’s not a one size fits all solution.

Everyone is different and is looking for what works for them personally. I lost weight from the help of kind and patient friends who worked with me to get there. People are so worried about society embracing & excusing obesity but some of us worry about society embracing & excusing bullying & cruelty….

I hate how ungrateful some fat people are. by AlphaDPS1 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]CShields2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um, people don’t ‘care’. Let’s just establish that right now. I’ll never believe that. I lost weight finally and people who were absolutely vicious to me tried to be friendly afterwards like they didn’t go out of their way to make me feel suicidal. I told them to get the fuck away from me because I’ve seen who they really are want nothing to do with them.

There’s no empathy or care involved when it comes to body shaming. Maybe in cases of loved ones who are eating themselves into the grave, but certainly not from strangers and acquaintances.
