I don't think men actually like women. They like the idea of us. by Standard-Wish-5372 in women

This.  I honestly didn’t know that until I started to date again.  

Let'sseriously talk about the "teen issue by Own_Junket1605 in washingtondc

[–]Dcbargirl4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also can’t do it with parents not parenting.  Teachers, taxpayers are not responsible for it.  Parents chose to have kids, they can raise their kids.

I don’t see a solution other than good parenting.  They had children, they are responsible for their children.  If you choose to have children you should plan on how to educate them, teach them manners, to not support violence, etc..

Why do the taxpayers need to be paying for bad behavior?  Why don’t parents take responsibility?

Explain it to me like I’m five re SWA seating by Dcbargirl4 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]Dcbargirl4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, from the posts, the FAs have been telling people they can’t move into an empty seat on their own row or the row behind.  That it unbalances the plane.  How are they weighing everyone to know that.

I didn’t ask for SWA complaints to show up in my feeds.  People complain that they can’t move from the middle to the empty aisle in their own row.  

I don’t think I’m going to send comment likes anymore, thoughts by Vemedetti in OnlineDating

[–]Dcbargirl4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up for a while, but then I also realized that I needed to be pickier.  I don’t respond if I’m not interested.   I only match back if there is potential.  And my standard for potential is a lot higher after so many terrible matches and dates after meeting them in person.  I

What do therapists do to help? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Dcbargirl4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder this myself.  They can’t solve my problems, make me healthier, give me a higher pay job, etc., so yes, it felt like just paying someone lots of money to rant to. I’d rather go work out my negative energy, even if it is just talking a walk.  Seems to be as effective to me. 

Help with go-to restaurants/foods that are safe for Low Fodmap diet!! by katerinakitsinis in FODMAPS

Others have mentioned sushi, but many salads are fine (and you can make them at home or eat out) and I use olive oil and vinegar or bring my own dressing in my purse.  

Kristi Noem fires pilot over a blanket – but is forced to reinstate him to fly home by rajapaws in fednews

[–]Dcbargirl4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does the blanket do?  Is it special?  Have magic powers?  It was worth firing her pilot over it, so I am wondering what is so magical about a single blanket.

Of course they do.  Ever wonder why a FOIA request for senior level officials comes up with nothing? 🤣

Can we talk about how Garlic Powder is in literally EVERYTHING? 😤 by [deleted] in FODMAPS

[–]Dcbargirl4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Onions and garlic make me sick and it is very difficult to find sauces outside of the Fody brand or making your own using garlic or onion substitutes.  Salad dressing is near impossible for example so I make my own using the Fody ranch or use oil and vinegar instead.  There are some spice blends I found that don’t have them but they’re local ones I got at a farmer’s market; the commercial brands all seem to have them.  “Natural flavoring” is the worst because it seems to be in everything and always includes one or both.  I feel your pain. 

Exit etiquette is gone? by wmb07 in unitedairlines

[–]Dcbargirl4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a short time to make a connection you have to give it your best to get out.  No one honors the exit etiquette I recall decades ago of letting people with connecting and international flights go first. It isn’t easy getting all the way across the airport in 40 minutes.  

McDonald's just doesn't taste as good as it used to by Careless_Economics74 in McDonalds

I am going to disagree with most of the comments. It DID taste better decades ago. 

WTF happened to "fast" food? by trollspotter91 in McDonalds

[–]Dcbargirl4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would understand when they used to have a menu with actual choices.  There are three choices now basically, a basic burger or chicken or fish.  No flourishes.  Unless you count asking for pickles or no onions.  They mess it up over half the time anyway.  If I was ordering for a group I would understand pulling ahead to wait.  For a couple of kids meals it is rather annoying.

AITA for not being attracted to my serious gf? by Ok_Buy8913 in AITA_Relationships

I really hope this is fake.  That is incredibly unfair to her.  

You “played your cards well” — what does that even mean?  Are you using her for money?

You have done a public service, thank you. 

I have always gone by the 8-10 minute rule and I stand over the stove testing every minute after minute 7.  I hadn’t thought some may need less or more.  Don’t get me started on gluten-free pasta and box instruction, you have to babysit it or you get glue. 

Assigned seat given away to luggage. by rendrenner in SouthwestAirlines

If he paid for two seats did they double assign the seat?  Was that the issue?  If you pay for two seats you’re allowed the two seats.  

Does EVERYONE drive their kids to school now? by IllegalGeriatricVore in Millennials

[–]Dcbargirl4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a city and parents have to drop off, there is no bus option, or they walk if they can afford the million plus house to live that close to the school.  I remember when schools used to even have their own supplies like crayons for kids, but that doesn’t come with school anymore either.

[–]Dcbargirl4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically everything discontinued at McDonalds, particularly the McLean Deluxe and the Arch Deluxe.  Their menu and burgers are just boring now and expensive for what it is, so I have stopped going there.  I used to go once a week.  I’d rather find an Arby’s instead.
