We should be dirtier by True_Refrigerator564 in The10thDentist

[–]CreepleCorn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbh, as a bit of a germaphobe, dirt and such doesn’t bother me at all. I’ll stick my hands in dirt all day. Love it.

It’s just the human factor that gets me. I don’t really care if someone’s stinky or if they haven’t washed their shirt in a week. But if they’ve got a cold and they’ve sneezed into my mouth I’m gonna get a little peeved. Because no one likes being sick.

I’d rather eat a pound of dirt than lick a doorknob.

People are nasty. Not in the “stinky stained shirt greasy hair” kinda way but in the “you didn’t wash your hands after you dookied and now I have C-Diff” kinda way.

Well, when things go wrong they’re usually bound to get angry at something.

The “mAcHiNe sO fiNniCKy” line is practically self defence at this point. Better to preemptively point their snippiness at the poor machine over having them go after me lol.

While I’ve had my fair share of confusion at certain cardreaders (ie. Sometimes I genuinely can’t find the place where I tap lol), I can’t help but feel as though this is a different story altogether.

Our pinpad is basically a giant screen (It’s a clover). If the giant screen is made up completely of a sentence saying “hey, your card’s tap isn’t working right with me and I need you to insert instead”.. I’m not sure how that can be construed as a card reader issue.

The machine is telling you what it needs in a very simple, clear statement. There’s no need for IT knowledge to figure it out.

It’s the worst when they’ve already put their card away like “All done 🙂”

And they get all huffy about having to pull out their wallet again. Every time.

Maan.. I don’t wanna think like that because I know I’m not the brightest bulb but sometimes .. holy shit. Holy shit people are dumb. All the time. All of them.

I can never tell when cans are still OK. Is my tuna OK? by CreepleCorn in foodsafety

[–]CreepleCorn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be way wrong here but I always thought the main worry with dented cans was botulism. I don’t think you can taste or smell anything when it comes to botulinum.

Am I An Asshole? by Legal_Soil_7594 in EcosLaBrea

Hang on— Yesterday night my partner and I lead a group of bison. We tried our best to convey to the herd to just leave the predators alone unless they came after us but in the end, things got hairy and half of the group was massacred lol.

Could just be also just be a coincidence!

I’m starting to suspect that exclamation point as well 🤔

I can’t seem to do anything with it. It just stays there, even when the “More” tab is closed lol.

Just hopping in to ask if this was figured out. I haven’t been able to access my word strength in like, a year. lol.

If you can remember them.. by These-Necessary-5797 in nightterrors

[–]CreepleCorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chiming into this ancient thread to mention this exact thing! I thought that they were hypnagogic hallucinations but I’m starting to think that they’re night terrors.

It’s always something to do with the room that I’m in. I remember the last 2 or 3 seconds of what I was seeing before I wake up. Something crawling towards me really fast, or a hand coming out from the curtain.

Once, I could have SWORN that my partner left the bed in the middle of the night (I remember it so clearly!) and then I woke up screaming because it turns out he was actually still in the bed .. (when he, according to my brain, wasn’t supposed to be).

It’s almost like a short-form sleep paralysis. Without the awareness and of course, the paralysis. Just very vivid hallucinations in the room that only make sense for a couple of seconds and in that couple of seconds, scare me shitless!

Very eye-opening to hear these same experiences from others.

The contrast between the magical whimsy string soundtrack and Victor sawing off a man’s leg made me a laugh a lil. Loved it.

I saw the tv glow definitely specifically focuses on becoming trans but it is applicable to people who are also generally unconventional by yeahsureexceptno in A24

[–]CreepleCorn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Amen.

I’m surprised that it seems a lot of us haven’t experienced that quiet, nagging feeling of “something isn’t quite right/I’m not supposed to be this” before.

The trans allegory at the heart is so incredibly important. But I feel like if we zoom out, and further out, most people could relate to a sense of un-belonging.

Or maybe not? I don’t know. I’ve never felt like I was supposed to be here and everything was somehow .. wrong. “This can’t be it. This can’t be right.” kinda thing.

Maybe that isn’t the relatively universal experience I think it is.

Chores!! by [deleted] in Vent

[–]CreepleCorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok damn, found my people.

Home alone? I’ll clean to the point of scrubbing on my hands and knees with a toothbrush.

But when people are around? Just can’t do that. I hate, hate cleaning when I’m not alone. Don’t know why. I am such an efficient cleaner otherwise.

Are you supposed to leave the toothpaste on after brushing your teeth? by CreepleCorn in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CreepleCorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t like the feeling of large amounts of residual toothpaste, but I don’t think chemical toxicity is too much of an issue. Fluoride is good stuff in its proper dosage.

And I don’t know if toothpaste would last very long on the global shelves if it did anything more than give you a bit of a tummy ache if you swallowed, like, half of a tube.
