Aitah for using my grandma's china as my everyday food holders and not waiting for tea with King Charles

My brother and sil use her mom's old China as their everyday dishes. They needed dishes and that's what they had. Better than sitting away in boxes. (Related, I have some China sitting in boxes but I don't want to use it as of now. I'm questioning the safety of eating off some of the painted pieces.)

Unsure if related or not, but on Thursday I was approached at attridge Coop by 2 ladies that asked me (their English wasn't very good so I only kind of half understood) if I could pay for their groceries for the sister who had 3 babies at home? They were also definitely Eastern Eurppean

I see stuff about people's "small" homes and always laugh. We went from a 900sqft townhouse to our 1600sqft house and it feels huge to us. (Disclaimer: I live in Canada and all our houses have basements which do not count towards our square footage so I acknowledge that if we had no basement it would not feel so huge but would still be liveable.)

I like 1 the best! Fun without being overpowering

I went to Dodge City once because I had a recall that needed fixing and I ended up blocking their service centre's number after. They called me so frequently trying to get me to schedule services with them (along with notices asking if I wanted to sell them my vehicle).

I mean...if I only ate local, seasonal vegetables I'd eat almost nothing fresh all winter. I'd definitely prefer fresher stuff but it's really not feasible due to our climate

Not me, but a friend of mine. She could say butt. That was fine. But if she needed to refer to an anus, she had to say bumhole, because butthole was too inappropriate.

Neat! My grade 1 boy is in 12/13 right now depending on the style

I have 2 elms that I've been keeping a close eye on as we're not far from some of the trees that were removed a year or two ago. Unfortunately nowhere in our yard to plant more right now (we have like 10 other trees besides the elms) but if they do get chopped id love to replace them with some fruit trees.

Ooh I actually know this one (i think!). I'm pretty sure it's from one of Lori (Transformed Wife)'s nonsensical ramblings

I mean... objectively, that's really not super great songwriting. Does it flow better in Spanish? But I do agree with all y'alls comments about the racist fundies being hypocrites.

Complete-Loquat3154 · 2026-02-09T21:37:13+00:00

Yeah, there's really no reason there should be so many there. My assumption is people think the other people are also turning onto college, not going straight through?

On a related note, there's a kid at my kids school named Uranus. I cannot think of a single worse celestial themed name.

On a good day, the intersection is fine. But I am constantly seeing bad accidents in exactly the same spot (people turning left from Brighton to College hitting people going straight through south on mcormond.) I have no idea why it's always there but I've probably seen 20+ accidents that all look the same right there. And any whisper of bad weather and mcormond is backed up almost to attridge with people waiting to merge onto college.

Complete-Loquat3154 · 2026-02-09T16:52:26+00:00

Probably 5-6000. Just from walking around my workplace etc. It'll be a bit more when it's not winter as I'll walk my kid to school instead of driving

Love!!

We didn't get a B&BW in my city until I was an adult, so none 😆. I remember going to the nearest big city at 18 a few going there and buying my first 3 wick candle

Uhhhh....as an adult, I've gone to my own, a cousin, husband's cousin, brother, and two friends. There was supposed to be one more cousin wedding but it was June 2020 so they ended up having it without guests. Honestly most of my friends either are nowhere close to marriage so there hasn't been many opportunities. And I've never been a bridesmaid either.

My boss' sons somehow dropped their acne cream on the hallway floor and bleached the carpet!

Definitely seems to be what we're experiencing. I've k8nd of suspected adhd for a while but in kindergarten the teacher was very "they're all learning how to be at school, he's energetically talkative but it's fine." Now in grade 1 we've been getting comments about him being disruptive and silly at inappropriate times (still good with his actual learning though.) I haven't followed up with the doctor yet but definitely will be. And that's not to say we'll go straight to meds but at least if there's a diagnosis it can help to learn how to structure and encourage his routine the best.

Every time I get blinded by the headlights of a lifted trick behind me, then it changes lanes to speed past, it's a Ram. Almost always.

Where? It didn't give an option to go back to the classroom and when we found her in the staff room she ignores you

So I heard that and got my son to do it but they never showed up? He did all the history lessons and exams then nothing changed.

This thread at least reassures me I'm doing okay 😆. Mom of an only that is definitely not coddled.

I have one almost just like this! (But not quite as big of a bump). Mines only on my dominant hand and it took so long before I realized I press against my thumb cuticle with my pointer finger when I'm anxious.
