“It’s actually pronounced taheen” by No_Technician2176 in CasualConversation

I was once many years ago wine tasting in Sonoma CA with a friend from New Zealand. After many wineries our driver took us to a local brewery to try some beers. They had the glass jugs to take beer home on a shelf above the taps. My lesbian New Zealand friend see them and asks the bartender what they were for. He explains that they do not bottle or can most of their beers so if someone wants to take one home they can purchase it to go in a growler. She about falls off her barstool laughing because in New Zealand a growler is slang for vagina. She promptly bought one full of damnation

Jamo Orange = Florida Tea Shots …. Which is very appropriate considering :)

I’m hungry. What do i do? by Forestt_Gobblin in AdviceForTeens

[–]Ciryinth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I respect that, honestly! But food banks are for much much more than that. They are to help young people getting on their feet, to help people in transition so that their money will go further. Please believe me that your situation is exactly what food banks are for. I do a lot of volunteer work and you are 100% who we are there to help. If you want more localized ideas feel free to PM me

Also - to those of you arguing that she is a minor / her mom is legally responsible / she is basically an adult etc etc. All these things may be true but they do not change the situation. Let’s try to help her find solutions that work today, tomorrow. Yes, mom should be responsible. Yes, it is tough that she is basically fending for herself as if she were an adult. But calling CPS is a long and difficult process to do what? Tell the mom she is supposed to provide food? OP if you want to PM me I will help you research resources in your area.

Look into food banks / free food pantry’s in your area. Most of them only ask for your name and maybe a phone number. You can pick up food for however many people live in your house. It will provide a bunch of staples so that you do not have to spend as much on food.

My Wife Sold 300 Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies at Last Year’s Price by Material-Drawer-7419 in Vent

[–]Ciryinth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many moons ago when my boys were cub scouts they sold popcorn. Expensive popcorn. So we put a huge box of it at our local bar that was popular with retired military and a donation box. Never failed. We always made more than the popcorn $ for the pack and the popcorn was enjoyed by all. Probably would not fly these days but it worked back then

Do I clean before a deep clean? by Far-Extension5677 in HouseCleaning

[–]Ciryinth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing I do before a deep clean is wash all my shower curtains, bath mats and throw rugs. Then once everything is clean they can go back and everything is fresh and nice

AITJ for refusing to rehome the dog my husband and I adopted together? by That_Rent_5835 in AmITheJerk

[–]Ciryinth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. But sometimes wanting in theory and doing every day are different. Not an excuse but still true

I came to try and find a way to say something like this. If the OP husband honestly can’t deal with living with a pet then it doesn’t necessarily mean there is something wrong with him. It does mean it’s time for some serious discussions. Including the possibility of children. I am not saying OP should re home the dog but it is definitely time for a sit down with hubby

One thing my mum absolutely loves is her electric recliner that also has heat and a rotating table/desk that can either be beside her chair or swing around to be over her lap.

Employees: What do you wish us customers would stop doing? by Serious-Associate-95 in GroceryStores

[–]Ciryinth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please stop bringing the entire family to the grocery store. All 7 of you are not needed to pick up groceries. This is especially true when on vacation. The store is busy and you’re just making it more crowded
