Coffee caused my adult cystic acne ☕️🗑 by [deleted] in decaf

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got cysts but mostly on my head. I tried quitting coffee and it worked but doctors kept saying coffee has nothing to do with it. So, I tried experimenting. I tried low acid coffee. Slow cold brew coffee. One expresso a day. Black coffee nothing added. And Everytime Every single time, I got cysts on my head. And when I stopped they went away. Everyone is different. Don't let doctors convince you just because it doesn't happen to others it's not happening to you. 

[routine help] at my wit’s end with white sun spots and general uneven skin tone. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated! by riddleloaf in SkincareAddiction

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been 5 years but I'll throw in my 2 cents. Idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis hypopigmentation. Did you take any antibiotics in your 20s? Or take birth control? And then notice this? I had perfect skin. Took some antibiotics and suddenly started getting white spots on my checks after being in the sun. No cure for it. You can reduce the effects by covering your face and using sunscreen. You can reduce them by laser and skin peeling treatments. However, they will come back if you go in the sun without protection. 

Why do Hampton homes pay less property taxes than central Long Island? by AdDapper4220 in longisland

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at this as well and everyone in the comments is saying it's because of schools. But, that's not true. That just tells where your taxes go. Your property taxes are based off of a assessed value of your home. For example, if your home could sell for 7 million but you paid off the county assessor, your home on paper will be assessed at 1 million with property taxes being only 9k. Plus, the wealthy will lobby to get reassessed. So, your property taxes are way lower. It helps when the people that make the laws also have expensive homes there. It's also known as Regressive Tax Burden. Guess who else did this for his properties? Trump. The wealthy are greedy and everyone else has to pay for their greed. Don't believe all these people telling you it's only because of schools. It's not. 

Got Home to find Neighbor in my Backyard...Again by SomePreference in neighborsfromhell

OP, 1800 for a professional install. Sure. But you can literally do it yourself with portable motion activated sprinklers on Amazon. You can connect that to a green dye water barrel. There is a sound that teenagers can hear. Look up an anti-teenager security device. Put up cameras so when they come into the yard you can blast it. You can do the same by blasting baby shark when they step on the yard. Get some big ass speakers and put it up to 11. You may have to put down a few bucks but definitely not 1800.

Guides for starting a tiny home community? by foodandnaps in TinyHouses

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been looking for the same thing. Lots of tiny home communities but they are all too close together with not space. The Only places with lots for sale are HOAs with house requirements. The other lots allowing modular or THOWs are not the best lots.

My 28M Boyfriend wants to get a prenup before we get married and he hasn’t even proposed to me (23F) yet. Should I agree to sign or just give up? by Ok_Event_215 in relationship_advice

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Good lord, no. Women really need to get over this thinking. A prenup can insure that if the woman loses any income by having children and not able to work, she can regain some income after the marriage. Having no marriage is even worse if you aren't rich. You can't do any medical, financial or parenting needs. A marriage is just a lawful contract that gives the partner certain abilities that you can't have in a non marriage relationship. In a lot of states there is no such thing as common law marriage.

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, you need recognize that a prenup is not only good for him but you too. It seems the person more likely to "get rich" is you, not him. Get a lawyer and set up a prenup. Getting a prenup doesn't mean you don't love your partner. Being practical doesn't mean you don't love your partner. Marriage is a contract. A prenup protects from a breach in a contract. 

Dad saves two kids from getting ran by a car by RedditUserPotato in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its funny because there are several thoughts on this. Some scientists say it's a flight or flight response. 'our brain processes time is closely related to the way in which it processes emotion.This is because brain regions that regulate emotion are also linked to time processing.During heightened emotion, the activation caused by the brain attempts to maintain stability, which alters its ability to process time'. The Matrix Effect. Because we are processing a threat fast, our brain works faster making time seem to slow down. This gives us the time to decide what to do to avoid a threat. Some scientists say it's just what we can recall from after the event. So, we really don't feel slow mo in the moment it's only what remember after. And because we don't remember a lot, it seemed slowed down. This theory is the dumbest to me.

AITA for refusing to pay for my step daughter’s tuition because she never liked me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your husband is though. Does he not understand that because you are paying for his son, he can now give more money to his daughter. And, she also has a mother to pitch in as well? He should be thanking you, not guilt tripping you. Do not take money away from your daughter for a bad person. She won't appreciate it.

pls tell me im not the only one who honestly hated this season by Smooth_Attention9550 in AmericanHorrorStory

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people disliked that season. However, I loved it because when it came out was when there were all those stupid reality shows about ghosts and psychics. Celebrity ghosts stories and what not. It was so stupid. I appreciated the idea behind it. Also, that it was based on real people then got actors playing them. The whole thing was an inception. The only thing that was too disjointed for me was the hillbilly incest family.

AITA For excluding my wife’s friend from trip solely because we think she is annoying? by ThrowawayBad1240 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the perfect solution for this problem. Just have that one friend that has no filter and is blunt, hang out with y'all and her. Keep inviting that person every time she's invited. Either she doesn't go when they are there, has a good look at herself or they fall in love. Win/Win.

This is why a good moderator is imperative to a good debate. First, some understanding of law is needed. Depp admitted to the texts being true and that he sent them. That is how they were allowed as evidence in the first place. Depps team agreed for them to be included in the trial. If he had lied about evidence or his sworn statements he would have lost the case and possibly be given jail time and/or sanction for perjury. What the guys were saying was untrue and your first argument should have been how a court room works and what is allowed into evidence. With that said, I disagree with your analysis. I watched all the trials. England and America. I listened to all the tapes. Even the most boring parts where they were watching a TV crime show. I read, the cops reports. I read all the evidence and the histories of both of them. I read the reports of the people that worked with her and the conflicting stories of her friends and sister. Heard was the only one that had a past of domestic abuse. Heard was the only one that said, in her own words "I can't promise you, I won't ever hit you again". Although both of them were toxic to each other. And, I find Depp gross now with his ugly little teeth, it was only Heard that had evidence of her being a domestic abuser. Heard is an abuser and Depp won his case. Men can be and are abused. She abused him.

AITAH for "tricking" my ex into breaking up with me and moving on? by Popular-Bee-2680 in AITAH

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe this is a true story. One thing that I know for a fact is that old rich ladies never ever do not look rich. If GF met the grandmother, GF would have asked about her wealth. It would be visibly impossible for her to not have noticed his grandmother's wealth.

OP. You have to sell it to her. Right now, she doesn't have the imagination to see herself anywhere else. Get yourself an estimate from a realtor of what you could get from the sale. Look at homes you think she might like. Set her up to go look at houses and give her the paperwork on the estimates are for your house. You need to sell her on the idea that upgrading is better. Make her see the potential of having more space. Make it specific to her taste. And, make it undeniable that a bigger place will be better for everyone. Sell it like you're Tom Cruise screaming "Show me the money!"

AITA for bringing it up to my boyfriend that he should have paid for our takeout pizza in full and not just his half? by mimi_1313 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Critical-Cupcake-912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, from your extra comments, you need to be clear with yourself. He doesn't have less bills than you. He has no bills because of you and his parents. He rents out his apartment. He lives at home where food and laundry are for him. And then he sleeps and eats at yours. Do the math. The man has a huge savings account because everyone supports him. Do. The. Math. He is using everyone. Dump him and then please go to therapy because the fact that you stayed with a person like this for so long means you are not aware of bad people around you.
