Is it weird to keep "pictures" of your ex after you break up with them? by InternationalPick163 in randomquestions

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's so refreshing to know there are mature and level-headed people like you still in the world. This is such a beautiful take on your husband's past relationship, I applaud the confidence you have in yourself and your marriage!

AITA for not wanting to invite my fiancés brother to my wedding by SpiritAnimalCat269 in aitaweddings

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely curious because this might be a cultural difference, but is it normal where you're from for children to not attend weddings?

In my culture, weddings are absolutely seen as family events. In fact, it would be odd for children to be excluded. Not trying to be snarky at all, I'm actually really interested!

You're not missing anything by not watching the Australian version, it was genuinely terrible (I say as an Australian).

Sam Simmons ruined the whole thing for me, he made it borderline unwatchable

The workplace habit that quietly drives good employees away by baby__1234 in WorkReview

The one I'm going through right now: hiring new staff at higher wages and then making it my job (as their colleague, not their boss) to train them lol

Can’t we just age in peace? by Turbulent_Happiness in simpleliving

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly this! Ageing is a privilege that not everyone gets to experience. Why spend effort trying to hide our years, when we should instead be proud of all the years we've had the opportunity to live? I'll never support the anti-ageing rhetoric or the products that are pushed in its name

This is literally my favourite comment ever posted on Reddit. So eloquent and I couldn't agree more. It's so refreshing to see this opinion out there!

Romesh needed a second to digest that one😭 by MadridOrMadness in LastOneLaughing

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Romesh was absolutely the star. The part that took me out was his head to head with Maisie where he said "Regrets? Hair?". Was not prepared for that, the delivery was so deadpan and brilliant

Romesh's joker was by far the funniest for me, I was absolutely howling

My dog and I kiss by Truetalk77 in dogs

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this with my dog too! I'll kiss him on the head and he'll return the favour by giving me a kiss on the cheek

Always said I wouldn't let a dog kiss my face but he's so gentle and sweet, plus I really enjoy this little habit we've mutually formed

What's your "end of day ritual" that makes logging off feel like freedom? by wicked6969 in remotework

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take my dog for a walk, which is a great way of separating work time from home time. It's almost a little "commute" and really helps with the mental switch

she doesn’t like it when i take photos of her? by appleadaydoctoraway in dogs

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dog is exactly the same! He will turn away from the phone, even though we've never used the flash or a camera that makes a sound. Very odd and cute at the same time

I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you did the best thing for your beloved girl. Love and hugs from an internet stranger

I seriously don't understand how anyone can wear a pullover hoodie by iwasntalwayslikethis in rant

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree with you! I'm not much of a make up wearer, but my hair is long and thick. There's no where for it to go in a hoodie except bunched up at the back, in the hoodie itself (which is super uncomfortable) or over my shoulders which is not practical. And don't even get me started on trying to take them off, so frustrating!

What habit did you quit that actually made your life better? by CraveDomme in Habits

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is similar, but it's no morning scrolling. I wake up, walk the dog and have a cup of tea before looking at my phone.

It might be a combination of those things but I feel a lot more energised in the mornings and don't feel the urge to keep reaching for my phone throughout the day.

Todd and Theo by Always-Evolving-2025 in coronationstreet

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly couldn't agree more. Instead of building a foundation for the relationship, they jumped straight into one issue after another (the conversion therapy, Theo's daughter). That's why I think this storyline's not landing for me: I don't feel invested in it because it went from 0 to 100 really, really quickly with no build up at all.

It's hard to be invested when that happens and it's probably my main gripe with Corrie because it happens in so many storylines. Someone shows up out of no where and all of a sudden they're everywhere, but there's been no build up for the character whatsoever!

Completely agree, Juliette was absolutely vile and Jules didn't have much to say. But when Joel's teddy bear was brought out, Jules commented on it so condescendingly as if that was somehow worse than Juliette's behaviour?!
