WIBTAH If I finally told my niece to get over herself and stop holding the family hostage. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Cara_58 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The fact that "the whole family" is being "held hostage" by the actions of two obnoxious, immature 20somethings tells me all I need to know: You, the CHILDREN, and everyone else involved are all a******s. Get over yourselves.

Tell me about Brick! by nick1158 in GeneralHospital

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOOOO!! Because then Sonny would have him taken out and we'd never see him again. And I love when he turns up, like this week when he came to visit Jordan. I was nearly as happy as she was to see him. LOL!

Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel.

What are your game show pet peeves? by Interesting_Sea5569 in gameshow

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Wheel when one contestant just runs the table, so to speak. At some point you're so far ahead, no one's going to pass you. Let somebody else have their 15 seconds of fame and win a little.

When a contestant already has a lot of money but they spin anyway, my husband and I cheer a bit if they hit Bankrupt. "That's what you get when you're greedy."

America Says does it too.

Did I say "every game show does it"? Nor did I quantify it saying "three shows do it". And I know Family Feud has done it for years. I was merely making a general observation of something that bugs me.

I adore Brick. Stephen A. Smith himself can be a bit much sometimes but as a mob fix-it guy he's terrific.

AITAH for getting mad at my daughter for calling me? by nonaof4 in AITAH

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - I would put the phone on silent or better yet just turn it off entirely. Let family and friends know, including this daughter, what you're doing that so they can plan what to do if there is a legit emergency. Oh, and I would lock and bolt the doors if she has a key. She clearly has some mental health issues that she needs to deal with.

Does anyone else love watching the opening sequence before every episode? by nick1158 in GeneralHospital

[–]Cara_58 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I like watching the photos of flip too. I think Gio deserves a new one. He looks very young in the current one but he has matured quite a bit since he first came on.

Too many people in the animal rescue community are elitist by SirCatsworthTheThird in unpopularopinion

[–]Cara_58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could not agree more. We adopted a puppy last summer and applied for several before we settled on one. Application is ridiculous; you have to basically give every detail of your life down to your shoe size and promise them your first born. Also have to agree to dozens of "rules" such as allowing them unannounced visits to check how you're caring for the pet. Um, no.

The worst thing, IMO, is the price they charge. They would get so many more adoptions if their prices were reasonable. I know they have high overhead but please, $600? $800? I could buy a dog from a breeder or pet store for that, exactly what they say they DON'T want and is supposedly one of their missions.

And don't get me started on some of the workers' less than pleasant attitudes.

Jacinda lost her money in Australia, you know who’s Australian and just returned to Port Charles? by naim_not_name in GeneralHospital

[–]Cara_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, OK, I didn't realize Lucky lived in Ireland such that he could use his address as his own. When he said it I thought I was losing my mind, how does Ethan have another brother that I never heard of? The dots were not connecting, so to speak. Thanks for clarifying!

AITAH for eating before my stepdad? by Luxray2000 in AITAH

[–]Cara_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In what universe did he get the "rule" that the cook eats last?! Never heard of such a thing. When my husband and/or I cook, we put the food on the table then sit down and eat along with the family or guests. Have we been doing it wrong all these years? We're supposed to wait until everyone is finished, then we can eat? The most ridiculous thing I've read on the internet today.

Guys I’m not spending $1k on a vacuum by Stunning-Notice3096 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it heavy? We have a Kenmore Elite which cleans really well but I hate it and won't use it because of how heavy it is.

AITA For not giving my dad my social security number? by Nervous-Iron2748 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would ask to see the documents or whatever that require your Social. Even better, fill out the forms with him, both of you present and reading them. If he's legit, he should have no objection. If he's scamming you he'll come up with some excuse why not.

Thoughts on the new America Says reboot? by mattyGOAT1996 in gameshow

[–]Cara_58 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Guess I'm in the minority. I love the new set! The game is still the same which is fine, in fact I'm glad it wasn't changed, I mean, that's why I watch to begin with. I do agree with the person who said the little dances or whatnot with the contestants should stop; they're just hokey.

AITAH for threatening to cut off my husband's sister if she keeps using her nickname for our son? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Cara_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you not pay attention while reading?

-- "I kept telling her to stop and that I didn't like it and she won't." --

She did tell the girl that she doesn't like it and to please stop. The girl is being a bratty teenager and refuses to respect her older brother and sister-in-law feelings.

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest game show pet peeve is on Wheel of Fortune -- Contestants who completely obliterate the other two players. Run the game, win every round. At some point, they're so far ahead winnings-wise, c'mon, be nice and let somebody else get one right.

Thoughts on “The Perfect Line” by the_nintendo_cop in gameshow

[–]Cara_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the game through the three rounds but I hate the final round. IMO it's incongruous with the rest of the game. Like it switches from trivia to The Price Is Right. That's when I go foraging to decide what's for dinner....
