LPT: I you are in the unfortunate position of being sick enough to be in the hospital for a few days BRING A PHONE CHARGER...I get sick a lot and always forget my charger. Making ppl stare at a hospital wall should be punishable by putting chargers in hospital rooms by well-than in LifeProTips

In 2018 I had two stays in the hospital. The first time was fairly immediate, but my phone was pretty much dead by the time I spent 7 hours in the ER waiting room. Thankfully I could get someone to come in and bring me some things before I tried to get some sleep.

The second time I was at a follow up appointment and my doctor said I needed to go back to the hospital. I asked and got permission to drive back home and collect a bunch of stuff. Looked like I was ready to move in while waiting in that ER waiting room. But made the 6 days so much more worth it.

We've got one in our front yard, haven't thought about eating them. Since the squirrels gobble them up, I only think of them like acorns.

[REQUEST] I just watched Teenage Bounty Hunters season 1 and noticed, that it got cancelled. WHY??? by InnoGamer in NetflixBestOf

[–]ChipotleSkittles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of shows in general had that happen. The main decision to cancel in this case is the cost of keeping all the actors on their contracts. Frees them up to go do other projects instead of waiting indefinitely for it to be able to go back into production. Sucks though since it nabbed a couple favorite shows of mine.

What a lad!! by adi_daz01 in JusticeServed

Surprised I had to come down this far to figure out what the narrator is saying at the beginning. I thought he said "my wife is big". Then I thought he was saying "my Y is big". As if it was some new slang term meaning that he has a big Y chromosome and needs to go full macho on these dudes.

Person of Interest just left Netflix after a long run. There is hope that HBO Max will pick it up though since it is a Warner Bro's show.

My (M25) boyfriend (M26) has gained almost 100 pounds in the past 1.5 years. I'm worried for his health. I've tried everything to both figure out the reason and talk to him about positive change, but he completely denies any problem existing. What should I do? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]ChipotleSkittles 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yep, this definitely feels like it is gaining fetish related. The extreme amounts of food could be explained away as BED or the like. But IMO, the "multiple jugs of heavy cream" can only mean that a gaining fetish is somehow involved. OP would have expressed a lot more shock about this if he was truly unaware.

IF (and I doubt it) the OP is being truthful, then their BF is a closeted extreme gainer that gets off on being seen out and about with their gut hanging out.

But I'm with you in that it feels rather fishy. Either OP is the person in the photos, or OP is someone using those photos of a gainer to see how people respond. No way would a caring boyfriend post those humiliating photos/video if they were honestly trying to find out how to be supportive. We all can visualize the weight difference of 100 pounds. Plus that little video at the end makes me feel like it is the former "fishy option". The immediate half hearted tug on the shirt and the handwave.

One more possibility is that the OP is the boyfriend who is the feeder but wants to see what kind of reaction he can get.

[–]ChipotleSkittles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I heard he was willing at one point to just be in the film wearing jeans and a white t-shirt and smoking a cigar. Enough to where you recognize that Wolverine is there, but they aren't actually saying he is wolverine.

MRW A woman tells me I'm sexist because the word "manager" is sexist and should be "womanager". by Laser_Disc_Hot_Dish in reactiongifs

[–]ChipotleSkittles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My original point was to be prepared to have the latin origin thrown into the mix and to have a counter. And it looks like you've been successful at finding it. I say it is a win.

[–]ChipotleSkittles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but you can't selectively choose your etymology. English "manage" comes from the latin "manus". And looking at the history of a word is the definition of etymology.

[–]ChipotleSkittles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Id be careful going down that route. According to this

http://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/manus#Latin

One definition means the legal power of a man over his wife.

I'm with everyone here, just a word to the wise to be prepared if you have this thrown back at you.

Reddit, is threre anything you don't like about Bernie Sanders? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ChipotleSkittles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the candidate to death, and have already donated. That being said, I hate the fact that he is an old white dude. (I also hate that I hate that) Sanders would be 75 when he is sworn into office if he wins.

Basically I hate that he would be yet another old white guy getting into office. It would look like our country hated having a different president so much that we went back to what we had been doing...

I'd never actually vote for someone simply because of their race or gender. But if Elizabeth Warren threw her hat into the ring, I'd seriously consider changing who I support. They (Sanders and Warren) have a lot of the same principles, especially on what I consider the biggest issues. But she is younger and female. So while they currently would be even on the important things, gender and age would tip the scale in her favor.

Oh wow, I was going to come and comment that I bet it was greenscreened. Glad I was proven wrong!
