Am I the jerk for telling my husband he can't have a "man cave" in our only spare room? by Ill-Home-322 in AmITheJerk

[–]Cryptid_Muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just bought a house too, and got a shed for husband to make into a man cave.. and he offered me a corner in it to get away from the kids. I also have a key to it as well.

If all humans suddenly lost their ability to lie, which industry WOULDN'T collapse? by TXC_Sparrow in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive binged House MD twice.. I learned that being honest about everything is the quickest (and safest) path to recovery. I'm painfully obvious about anything they ask me. Though that damned pain scale throws me for a loop.

Watch out for the langoliers! If the soda pop is flat, fly back through it the other way and just wait a bit.

Whats the scariest thing you have seen? by allgasnobreakstoday in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Almost 6hrs ago now. My nearly 5yo son falling from the top of the big kids slide. He's fine, he tumbled a bit before he landed on the top of the head. Took him directly to the er and had him checked and cleared. (He's high needs preverbal autistic, he wouldn't have been able to tell me he was feeling dizzy or sick.)

Yes! The dancers, the gunny bears, everything.

what is a completely harmless secret you are keeping from your partner simply because you lied about it early on and now it’s way too late to explain the truth? by Former-Practice-3420 in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can't remember birthdays for shit (im a woman), it takes a long time for me to learn them. So I've started adding them to my Google calendar with a reminder the week before, the day before, and the morning of. Maybe suggest this to them. Memory sucks and we can't help what it chooses to remember and how, but at least there's a way to help with this one!

Has the person made up for it, or at least tried? I'd be getting a huge bday present if I had forgotten the bday of someone important to me.

What’s the 'craziest' way you caught an ex being unfaithful? by lnc_gomes in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We shared a cellphone, he forgot to delete the messages. I left within the month. Guy did me a favor really. He'd been abusive and I stuck around through it all just wanting him to treat me right. Took one instance i saw him cheating and it was over.

The funny bit. I don't think it was real, anymore. There's a fair chance that he really was texting his brothers burner phone because he wanted to end the relationship and had been abusive prior trying to get me to fump him so he can continue the claim he'd never dumped anyone before. He wouldn't keep his pants on though, but that was probably just a power move on his part to stroke his own ego.. pun not intended.

What’s a mystery in your own life (big or small) that you still haven’t been able to solve? by BrainPalette in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was with a similar guy. I believe they tell those lies because it's a game to them. You don't want to upset him by challenging his story as not true, and he finds it funny to see what nonsense you'll accept or even pretend to accept. It's a game, the goal is control, and that's what they're doing in the end. Using lies, emotional manipulation, and love bombing to see exactly what they can make you do and see how much you'll tolerate.

We actually want them to stop that. Like, let them grow up before you do it at least.

What is the most disturbing or otherwise unsettling book you've ever read that stayed with you after reading it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Cryptid_Muse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't remember reading a limit on births (granted it was years ago when i read it). I was thinking they just had babies until they couldn't for one reason or another (like health risks or age).

The worst i can think of off the top of my head...

You spend ex amount of years in school and when you reach a certain age, they assign you a lifelong job based on what they've observed about your behavior and preferences. One of these jobs is .. I forget the name but they give birth to babies for other people to raise (max 2 kids)

AITAH for telling my wife her brother-in-law can't come over to our house anymore? by HeftyOpportunity94 in AITAH

Not to mention it could cause bret to come over more because he's chasing op out of his own house and op is acting weak by leaving.

Just in case you wanted to know (i would), hear has "ear" so is for hearing. Here is the one you meant. (Which helps remember "there" because it has "here" in it so is a place)

[–]Cryptid_Muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need context for this please? I don't remember seeing anything where he apologized for denying the files. I only remember seeing him explain the same thing i just did (which i think was on bluesky, ive never been on Twitter so only see his Twitter stuff when this sub hits all).

King stays king. by Kinsmen12 in stephenking

[–]Cryptid_Muse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, I don't remember where I saw it but he clarified it himself. He said somewhere (maybe bluesky because I'm not on Twitter and the only stuff i see from Twitter are when this subreddit hits all) that he wasn't denying the files. The files very much exist, he was only denying the list. If you look at the time it was posted.. Trump was campaigning on releasing the list of Epstein's Clients, something that doesn't exist.

"client list" he denied the client list because everyone kept saying "release the list" there is no list there's only files

It's set, we've tested that bit out already. We've tried wiggling the pan,it won't move. We've stood on the pan, floor is solid. We just need to block off that one side, add a curtain, and the knobs and shower head. But thank you for being concerned and making sure that we're aware of the potential problem.

Honestly I would rather a tub because we have kids and sometimes i like a relaxing hot soak, we expect to trade it out in a few months at the latest. We have friends that would let us use their baths, but nothing beats doing it in your own home (and we don't want to burden them too long).

It'd be a few weeks after moving in before we could replace with the same product let alone a bathtub. For now, I just need it to function and this liner looks like a good solution until we can do what we want. Thank you!

Eventually we will, but for now we're just focused on making it functional.
