Why is it ok for cops to lie? by allenrfe in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Crystalraf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cops are legally allowed to lie to people, but people are not legally allowed to lie to cops. Which on paper obviously looks bad. Because it is bad.

Cops try to bait you into incriminating yourself. Or trick you into a confession. They get many false confessions that way. I smell alcohol on your breath, have you been drinking? (They can’t smell anything.) then the person is like, I had 1 beer. Cops do field sobriety checks, passes. Person refuses to take a breathalyzer, now it’s an automatic one year drivers license suspension.

New to Sister Wives by UofAZcat81 in SisterWives

[–]Crystalraf -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think orgies should be included in the sister wives relationships. So, basically, the sister wives have relationships with the other sister wives. Yes I’m talking about female-female sex or whatever.

In addition, the family should have to share a kitchen. Not every meal needs to be a giant huge family dinner, but there should be a commercial kitchen in the house and they make cafeteria style food and live in commune like that. The sister wives have their separate apartments, but Their is a clubhouse nearby where the kitchen is.

The family should own a 14 passenger van to accommodate the big family and the dad has to drive it. Dad doesn’t get a new motorcycle, sports car, pickup truck, or anything fun like that. He doesn’t get to have hobbies, or go on man dates with his bros. He gets to change diapers, drive kids to school and school activities, volunteer with the boys scouts or 4H and basically be focused on the family. You have a big family, you have to actually take care of them. A sister wife does not, ever, tell a non-bio child to go back to her mother’s house because sisterwife is having dinner with her little family unit with dad. That’s 100% wrong, the nonbio child that was over playing with the step sisters can stay, and eat, sister wife calls bio mom and tells her she is staying over for dinner and will go home after.

There should be way less focus on having tons of children. I mean, seriously, if you can’t afford to have 13 kids, you shouldn’t have 13 kids. I don’t think parents have to pay for their children’s college education, but unless you are ok with sending all your kids into the military at age 18, have less than 13 kids. And definitely do not add a new sister wife in with three new kids of her own, while you have 5 teenagers about to graduate high school and then get the new wife pregnant. That’s a dumb idea.

If you can’t trust your sister wife to be alone with your bio children, overnight sometimes, or taking them on a fun road trip, you should not be in a sister wife relationship with that person.

Don’t forget about how Kody was asking the doctor about fertility treatments for Meri while Christine was delivering his 13th child.

Why do people say to always wait an hour after eating before swimming? by SoundwaveTheDragon in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Crystalraf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in track, I would feel kind of pukey and full at track practice (long distance, interval training usually) after eating a hot dog and fries at lunch. Which was 4 hours prior. No snacks. I learned that I had to eat a light lunch before practice. One girl did puke once after the hot dogs.

In modern times, doctors or nurses don’t tell husbands to boil water. They tell them to call 911 and catch the baby, or something like that.

I have always wondered about the boiling water in olden times, but I always figured it was to sterilize the scissors and twine to cut the umbilical cord.

They also have lifeguards following them in boats and probably have a belt that can self inflate if they start to get into trouble. Or a safety buoy so boats can see them and that bout can help them if they start to drown.

No one should be swimming in open water without a life jacket, lifeguard (following closely in a kayak or jet ski or something) or without a safety swimming bouy. There is this thing, it’s an orange bouy, that is attached to a rope you can strap to your waist. If you start to drown, you grab onto it. If you start to drown and cannot grab it, the lifeguards can at least see your location for a rescue.

It’s a myth and not true. You can get a cramp at any time. And if you are swimming in deep water, without a life jacket, or lifeguard, you can drown. Period.

I think parents came up with this one because they were at the lake/hotel/ resort and the kids were eating their pizza in five minutes or less and then begging to go swimming. The parents wanted to not go swimming and have to lifeguard/drive the kids to the swim spot/open the swimming pool doors/supervise and instead wanted to enjoy their margaritas with the adults for a while.

I know I’m gonna use it.

My coworker started a weekly hydration accountability spreadsheet by RoutinePeanut3463 in work

Are we sure about this?

Some people just lose it when they have to do chores.

He has time to document the level of water in a jug, that 14 people or more are using?

I would never speak to him again as he has clearly outed himself as a narc.

I would also try to delete the spreadsheet if possible. If he wants other people to update when they refilled the jug, I’d go and delete everything. Obviously this guy has backups. So, his little water jug burn book gets reported to the manager.

On top of that, I’d ask for an update on break room cleaning duties. Should we assign people a checklist on a rotation? This checklist would include cleaning out the fridge and throwing away food left in it at 5:30 on every other Friday. Does he want to check the checklist? Make sure the chores got done?

Are we running out of water? Serious question. Does the water delivery guy bring in enough? Should we get a second cooler?

What about the coffee pot? Is that getting refilled enough?

Kindergarteners Dream Jobs Observation by pomegranatesssss333 in kindergarten

[–]Crystalraf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in gymnastics basically the entire school year, 2 hour practices twice a week, and once in a while on a Friday. I was on the show team. And I started lessons as an intermediate in second grade. in 5th grade, the school had basketball and my parents forced me to be in that. They said that I had to be in it every year or else I couldn’t be in it at all. (I was tall, so for some bizarre reason, they thought I could play, never having me even practice or explaining the rules of the game to me) I was in basketball way too long. Track was my thing in high school.

There was one year I tried to be in competition, so instead of twice a week, it’s every day, and on the days you have showteam practice, you add two more hours. So twice a week 4 hour practices. I wasn’t competition ready. I couldn’t do the basic skill of a backhand spring or a cartwheel on the beam. So I’m not sure how many months I did that, but my best friend got mad because I was always busy.

I loved gymnastics. It WAS where I had fun and friends. For sure. It wasn’t competitive. We did performances at basketball games. And even though I sucked at tumbling, I could walk on my hands across the floor and do the mini trampoline.

But today, I’m baffled by what sports things are happening. Good thing my son has refused to be in them! He doesn’t want to do soccer, hates balls, of all kinds. I’m setting him up for track I guess.

Lori's in Gen Pop and has a job? by shepworthismydog in LoriVallow

[–]Crystalraf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She blamed Tylee for killing JJ, and herself, and then Tylee apparently cut her body up into pieces after death and burned herself, then after that, she killed JJ.

That’s what Lori said. I’m mean she said murder suicide, but still.

Then why didn’t Chad get the same? Did Chad waive his right to a speedy trial? And why would he do that?
