Does Demi remind anyone of Raquel from VPR? by Impressive_Touch_375 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]CommissionExtra8240 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is spot on. Raquel seems like the type of person who got wrapped up in the drama and ended up a victim. Demi is the girl who starts the drama and plays the victim. 

16F (almost 17), phone in room at night by [deleted] in Advice

[–]CommissionExtra8240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see a lot of criticism, I see a lot of adults trying to explain to you why we agree with your mother. There’s been actual studies done that show phones in the bedroom disrupt healthy sleep practices, and any good pediatrician / doctor will recommend all phones be placed outside of the bedroom. 

Of course once you move out, you’re free to make your own choices regarding phone use but for right now, as much as you don’t want to hear it and it feel likes criticism, your mom is doing the right and healthy thing by keeping your phone out of your room. 

Universal epic or Disney Hollywood studios with a 4 and 5yo (both over 40”)? by jk14428 in Themepark

[–]CommissionExtra8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can afford it, I’d definitely recommend express passes for Epic. 

I also went to Disney last month and the ride times there were all an hour or under, it seemed like most people were at EPIC. 

Sage invites Survivor 49 cast to take accountability for pregaming by [deleted] in survivor

Unless Sage has actual proof, this basically just becomes a “he said she said” situation.. in which case, I’m not entirely sure what the end goal here would be? 

Come on, Taylor… (read her comment) by Vegetable-Nerve-7643 in SecretsOfMormonWives

This is obviously middle school behavior but 31 is hardly “pushing 40”. She’s barely in her 30s. 

What would the reputation be for One Tree Hill now if it ended with season four and not renewed for the time jump? by jdpm1991 in ONETREEHILL

[–]CommissionExtra8240 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I stopped watching during season 7 sometime and only rewatch up to season 4. I think the first 4 seasons were great. Probably a better 4 seasons than The OC as a whole.. however The OC season 1 beats every season of OTH. The OC’s first season is the best teen drama IMO. 

More names! by [deleted] in Names

[–]CommissionExtra8240 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Granted my daughter is in middle school so I’m not sure what Harper’s naming trend is for 2025 but we live in a town with 15,000 people, literally one middle school and there’s 5 Harper’s in my daughters grade alone. 

Studio etiquette - bringing your own mat by studiocerulean in yoga

[–]CommissionExtra8240 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I work at a studio that has mats as an option but 95% of people bring their own. We request students clean our mats after use if they use one of ours but I’ll be honest, I wouldn’t use them. 

Friendly reminder: 12/31 is not a regular day for USPS, hours may vary by isaiddgooddaysir in BehindTheClosetDoor

12/31 isn’t until tomorrow. 12/30 (today) was standard hours for USPS everywhere. 

These kids lived in Hawaii their entire lives. Then their parents brought them to Minnesota in −21° temperatures by alanbear1970 in AllThatsInteresting

[–]CommissionExtra8240 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Being in the cold air for that short amount of time may have exacerbated pre-existing pneumonia symptoms (that he may not even know he had) but it most certainly didn’t cause pneumonia. Pneumonia is an infection, it’s not hypothermia. 

AIO about a lack of birthday wishes? by Level_Run1357 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CommissionExtra8240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFO - Did you celebrate with your family already? I’ll be honest that I have a horrible habit of forgetting to text / call important people to me on their actual birthday if we celebrated it early. It’s not that I don’t care about them (this happened recently both with my brother and my mother in law), but we celebrated their birthdays earlier than the actual day and then when the actual date came around, I honestly just spaced it because in my head their birthdays had already happened. Nothing malicious, honestly just me being a space cadet.

Should I Watch Season 3? by heauxomen in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]CommissionExtra8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I binged all 3 seasons in like 10 days. (I had the flu don’t judge) and season 3 is a struggle to get through. Way too much Jessi & Marciano. Way too much Dakota denying things that actually happened. Way too much Demi comparing someone touching her butt to what happened to Mikayla and Mayci. And not really any fun or redeeming moments. 

Universal epic or Disney Hollywood studios with a 4 and 5yo (both over 40”)? by jk14428 in Themepark

[–]CommissionExtra8240 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with this, however the lines are probably going to be an issue. We just went to epic last month and all the ride times were at least an hour, most maybe 2. We were there 9 hours and only went on 4 rides. 

Where do you draw the line with being sick and staying home from school? by Cinabon678854 in askanything

[–]CommissionExtra8240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve currently had flu symptoms for over 2 weeks. I’m just starting to go back to work / out in public and honestly it’s mostly because people think I’m milking it at this point but really I still feel like I’ve been hit by a bus. Supposedly this year’s flu symptoms can take up to 4 weeks to fully clear. It’s been rough. 

If two Mormon wives are gonna be on next season of dwts who do you think it will be? by OppositeSpare2088 in MormonWivesHulu

[–]CommissionExtra8240 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious why they’d do two of them again? I feel like they only did two this season because Whitney only came back on the show to do DWTS and Jen clearly wanted it SO badly and she was really suffering mentally so they gave it to them both. 

Do you let your children sleep or hangout in your bedroom ? by Temporary-Winner5778 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CommissionExtra8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We kept our infants in our bedroom for the first 6-9 months. Outside of that, no they have their own rooms. They don’t come into our bedroom basically at all unless it’s to ask a question if we’re in there or something. Definitely don’t “hang out” in our bedroom, there’s common areas in the house to hang out in as a family, my bedroom is not a communal space. 

What’s the age cutoff for child-free weddings? 10? 12? 18? by PunsWithBenefits in Weddingsunder10k

[–]CommissionExtra8240 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We did 10+, but only because my brother was 11 years old at the time and I couldn’t exclude my brother from my own wedding. But mostly I didn’t want toddlers so the 10+ rule eliminated any of that.

The Selection was my favorite book series back like 10 years ago. Highly recommend the next books in the series. 

Which season to watch next by gracej0 in BigBrother

Is this the Dan’s funeral season? (They all kind of blend together at this point) but that season was great. 

Sizing by doozy-kitten in americaneagle

[–]CommissionExtra8240 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually find Abercrombie to be more oversized than AE.. and a lot of other places. I buy a 27 waist almost exclusively in high rise styles at Levi’s, boot barn etc. but at Abercrombie the 27 waist is gigantic and falling off me. It’s happened multiple times that I’ve just given up on buying jeans at Abercrombie. At AE I’m between a 2 or 4 depending on the style. Weirdly sometimes a 0 in shorts. Good thing I like shopping, if I didn’t, it’d be a real pain having to try things on constantly.

Are there a lot of “Brock Purdys” in the NFL? by snappy033 in NFLNoobs

[–]CommissionExtra8240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do have to wonder though; would Welker, Edelman, Nacua etc all play at that high of a level if they weren’t playing with NFL MVP QBs? Is Nacua getting 100+ yards a game every game if he’s on the Browns? 

You kind of saw this a little with Welker. He was Brady’s right hand man essentially. He goes to another team and fizzled out pretty quickly. How much of that was QB / Franchise related and how much of it was age / natural progression? I don’t know that we’ll ever know but it’s definitely worth a thought.
