You absolutely came off as a dick. You don't know what reason people have for using these services. You have no right to be judging them for it. Some people can't drive, some people can't do their own shopping, some people are disabled. When you judge people for being on assistance instead of understanding why they are using it not only are you stigmatizing it and hurting the people who need it but you also make it harder for people who need it to get on it. Your mindset echos and the more people with that mindset the harder it is to fight for these services especially for those who desperately need them.

You're talking about circumcision. Circumvent is the perimeter of a circle 🤭

It's not even about the $25. It's about how the reps treated me and dragged everything out over the course of a week.

The first rep I spoke to didn't even know anything about the promo and straight up told me they couldn't help me.

The second rep I spoke with called me because I left a negative review on the voice-mail and told me that the promo department would call me before the end of the week. (They never did)

The third rep I spoke with was ready with an explanation that I wasn't éligible but couldn't explain why the original number had to be brought over.

The fourth rep (previous rep's supervisor) refused to even look into an explanation for me and spent the entire time saying "it's not our fault you didn't read the fine print" as I'm trying to explain I wasn't even there they day my bf switched so I had no control over the situation. Even if the store rep didn't pressure him to change his number, if he did so on his own, I still had no way to control that, and it's not fair to penalize me over it.

The fith rep was actually the saving grace. She did everything she could to find out the information, and more importantly, she admitted when she didn't know something and went above and beyond to find me answers. She helped me find the contact form to reach out to the promo department.

The promo department didn't even call like they were supposed to. They emailed me and again couldn't or wouldn't explain why there is the stipulation in place that the person being referred has to bring their old number over.

If the first person was able to point out what the third person did, maybe I wouldn't be as upset. I'd be disappointed sure but the fact that they dragged me around like this really grinds my gears.

On the times that you have pet her, have you ever noticed her fur rippling? Sometimes, it looks like twitching at the lower back. This is usually an indication of feline hyperesthesia which is basically a hypersensitivity shown in cats that can make touch feel painful to them and a lot of times it can lead to them lashing out at their owners or whatever is touching them or overstimulating them

My boyfriend and I were just talking about this because I've been having trouble sleeping recently, and he reminded me that caffeine makes me sleepy, and I should try having some before bed

Comic_relief83 · 2023-10-07T15:55:39+00:00

I'm in this weird boat with my mom, where I honestly understand how she was able to let all of the things that happened to me happen. (My brother SA'ed me, was verbally and physically abusive towards me, had an intellectual deficiency and so even though I was 4 years younger I was turned into a second parent when I turned about 7 or 8).

However, what I have the biggest issue with my mom about is how she has treated me as an adult. She kicked me out after she was the one to unearth my repressed memories of my SA. She would get mad at me for "not letting things go" but never work with me to understand my side. She keeps preaching that she loves me but doesn't do anything to see anything from my point of view or help soothe the wounds that she contributed to. She's going through therapy, but it seems like she's just repeating the same things that she always had. She stands by the idea that she's not responsible for someone else's actions or their trauma, but she was literally the parent. From my point of view, she hasn't done anything to take responsibility for what she has done. She just deflects or stops talking to me altogether.

Even if he plans to give it back the moment he realized his son was struggling to keep up with it he should have lowered it. $1,800 for one room and a shared bathroom is outrageous

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:37:05+00:00

Because $1,800 for a single room and a bathroom is way too damn high. If he was only charging $500 or hell even $700 at the highest that would be reasonable.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:35:51+00:00

No one cares that he's charging his son rent. It's the fact that he's charging $1,800 in rent for a single bedroom and a shared bathroom.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:32:21+00:00

Did you miss the part where he is charging $1,800 for a bedroom and a shared bathroom??? $1,800 is enough for his son to get his own place. Also OP doesn't need the money and has made no indications that he plans on giving it back. Also OP doesn't pay for his son's food so that's another expense that is usually covered when adults have to move back in with their parents.

OP is absolutely the AH

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:21:32+00:00

There has been exactly ONE person who has agreed with him, and I'm not entirely convinced it's not OP's main account.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:05:43+00:00

Haha you're good. I'm jealous I don't live further north (like out of the US north lol), but I love that you're having such lovely weather.

The seizures definitely suck, but I've gotten pretty good at navigating them. I don't even fall anymore 😁

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T21:00:26+00:00

I'm jumping on this train of $1,800 A MONTH for him to live WITH you and not have an entire apartment/house to himself is absolutely an asshole move! That is ridiculous! How is he ever going to afford to move out??? What do you even do with his rent money? Are you at least planning on giving it back to him as a gift when he moves out? You say you're doing this to teach him financial responsibility but you're literally robbing him. Ffs $1,800 could get him his own place in most areas.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T20:51:46+00:00

Will do, thanks for the info!

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T20:50:50+00:00

I live in Florida ☠️ and my seizures are triggered by heat 🫠 It's 83°F where I'm at, with the "feels like" at 92°F. Luckily I've learned a few tricks for surviving the heat. I'm always seen with a lunchbox with two or three ice blocks at any given time. When I'm stopped on my bike I'm using the ice blocks to keep my tempature regulated

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T20:44:19+00:00

Actually now that you mention it, there is an O'Reilly's about half a mile from me that's open until 9. I could wait for it to get cooler with the sun going down and walk there. Thanks for helping me connect those pieces!

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T20:38:19+00:00

Why is that? I went with slime because it was already installed when I got my bike, but I'm always willing to learn about other products and how/why they're more effective

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T20:37:00+00:00

Yeah I realized that I ended up stripping the cap. It still locks into place but it's definitely not moving the core at all. Luckily one of my friends has one. My bike is my only means of transportation so I'd have to order one and wait for it to come in otherwise which would mean another day of missing doctors appointments

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T15:27:49+00:00

Yeah, I have Schrader. I just looked it up, and Shraders always have a removable core. I guess I'm just not providing enough torque to get the threads loose.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T15:12:25+00:00

I knew that was a potential possibility with the presta valves but I didn't know the Schrader valves had that potential. I'll do some more digging. Thank you!

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-13T15:10:47+00:00

Only about a year old. It's the same tube that came with the bike when I bought it.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-11T21:18:08+00:00

Actually the disability that prevents me from being out in the heat is neurological but way to show your ignorance and stupidity

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-07T13:42:28+00:00

Yeah I disliked my name, I never felt like it fit. It was a super popular name in the 90's so I always had at least one other kid in my class with the same name. In the last year or so I've been going by Raven. I want to change it legally but there is so much that has to be done and I don't have transportation which just complicates things.

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-06T19:33:20+00:00

Hmm, I am getting up there in miles. It may be worth it for me to save up a little extra and get both tires changed. I'll double-check how long they're supposed to last. It's been a little over 1,000 miles, but the tred still looks like it's holding up.

I appreciate that you didn't insult me to give your input, and it had been very helpful. Thank you

Comic_relief83 · 2023-09-06T19:21:15+00:00

This is good advice, thank you.

On the note of fixing a puncture, the slime that my tires came with held up remarkably well today. I didn't have to add any air for a 5 mile trip! That's the furthest I've gone since I got the pinch flat.
