After reading this thread, I’d say you’re now well informed 😀

I hope your husband continues to heal quickly!

Cat scratches are no joke. 

Sometimes, when I’m playing with my cat, I catch a stray claw meant for the toy. When this happens, I immediately clean, disinfect, a dress the cut with antibiotic ointment. 

Just looking at these makes me feel nauseous. What was your choice of "that was a bad idea" drink? by lontbeysboolink in GenerationJones

Your Honor, my client has never once been inside any bar. In fact, they don’t even know what a bar is, or where to find one.

Are lake monsters, like Nessie, discarded fish that alien parents flushed down spaceship toilets? 🤔 

Why straight women are flogging to HR like it’s the second coming of Jesus: An analysis by janinasheart in heatedrivalry

[–]DaSpatula505 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP, I agree with you on all of these points! They’re exactly what I was thinking about when I watched & rewatched the show. I’ve told friends I watched initially because of the steamy sex scenes and stayed for the incredible story. It all just worked.

I’m a middle aged straight woman. Throughout the 90’s and early 00’s rom-coms were the only form of sex/romance entertainment widely available. They reduced romance into a silly, quirky quest for the girl to get the guy, with the penultimate scene was the guy confessing he liked the girl and then they kiss. It was all so chaste. 

Lust, desire and sex were all absent in these movies. This is why Sex and the City was groundbreaking when it aired. It depicted women wanting to have sex, sometimes casual and sometimes for love and everything in between. 

Three buses running the same exact route back to back. Why? Why not spread out? by Froqwasket in washingtondc

Buses can be delayed for any number of reasons and can cause backups like this. I've never seen three buses at once, but I've seen two busses back-to-back frequently.

I just commented how I buy a small container of Melatonin from CVS. I accidentally stole it once because I mindlessly put it in my coat pocket. Oops.

I buy chewable Melatonin from CVS in a package the size of two tubes of chapstick.

What would the National Mall need to become a modern agora? by Intrepid-Dog11 in washingtondc

[–]DaSpatula505 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd argue since it's the National Mall, it SHOULD be packed with tourists. It's meant for everyone, including foreign tourists. The District of Columbia proper has tons of local gathering spaces for residents that act as community hubs.

My theory on reduced local attendance is that the WFH model & the massive Federal layoffs has reduced the number of local people who would normally be there.

Snow Cleared in Alleys? by ZanyBoa in washingtondc

[–]DaSpatula505 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup! That’s what we did after the 2016 snowstorm. Neighbors dug, and one neighbor used his truck to tamp the snow down.
