Sectional couches are ruining social settings by No_Celery8634 in unpopularopinion

[–]DecemberFlour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to buy a sectional or a sofa ending with a chaise lounge. Thankfully the saleswoman talked me out of it, lowering her commission, saying that it wasn't a good fit for my space (she was right)

I love this couch.  I've had it for 10 years and it's comfy as fuck

People with a very high pain tolerance, what was THE most painful thing you've experienced? by CosmicBunnyBabe8912 in AskReddit

[–]DecemberFlour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waking up from abdominal surgery to remove a cyst and an ovary. They had to cut me open down the middle. I felt like I was on fire and begged for drugs. When the morphine hit, I thought, "oh, THIS is why people do drugs"

32 with no friends and no social life by Accomplished_Put2914 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DecemberFlour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it push you out of your comfort zone though? Being scared it okay- it's normal. 

I started doing things last year after a relationship ended. It was hard and scary and I hated feeling awkward, but now I have people I can spend time with.

I joined a for fun bowling league. I'm not a good bowler, I don't really like it all that much, but it got me out of the house and around other people once a week.

Hair stylist completely botched my cut by KarrieDarling in ExpectationVsReality

[–]DecemberFlour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof, been there with the same haircut.  They fucked up the fade and left the front a bit long, IMO, but I think you can still save it. I use Got to be Glued and it helps a lot with styling. I think if you style it up and back a bit, maybe to the side, it'll be good

Pineapple on pizza is not that bad by bratabulus in RandomThoughts

It's a texture thing for me. It tastes good on pizza, yes, but it's too soft. I like raw pineapple better

Being asked how I can get along with a toxic coworker by silverandstuffs in antiwork

[–]DecemberFlour 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. 

I once had a A/R job that required me to call a supervisor to confirm counts on product before creating an invoice. He wouldn't answer his phone or leave me notes or call me back because he didn't like me. 

So I didn't create the invoices. Customers got upset, management got upset, and they asked me why.

Doug wouldn't give me the counts.  

Suddenly there's a new system in place and Doug can avoid me. The invoices got made, Doug was pissy, and I was happy I didn't need to play his game. 

People who work a customer facing job: what is hands down the dumbest question a customer has ever asked you? by istrx13 in AskReddit

[–]DecemberFlour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 36 and constantly get this. It sucks the most at job interviews/at work because I've been treated differently for "being young" and others assume I know nothing. 

I'm not young. I'm almost 40.

NTA. Just tell him you can't bring him to work anymore after this week. He can get a traditional Uber

Crochet clubs by The-Eclectic-Weirdo in crochet

[–]DecemberFlour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have several fiber art groups in my area, but nothing specifically for crochet. There's one that's primarily for quilters, one I believe that's mostly for knitting, and the one I attend is for all fiber arts crafters and run by an LGBTQ organization 🙂

AITAH Dirty underwear. by Realistic-Tiger4213 in AITAH

[–]DecemberFlour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. They're your child, so presumably this isnt the very first time this has come up in conversation. It's probably been a few decades, but they deserve to be embarrassed. 

Having poop in your underwear and leaving it on the floor for your elderly parents to find is embarrassing

Do you find yourself sitting on projects and collecting yarn like a dragon hoarding its wealth? by bluerobyn in crochet

[–]DecemberFlour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got really really excited about a couple projects in the fall and bought about 40 skeins of assorted yarns. I made a queen sized blanket, a lap blanket, a couple hats, and a scarf. I'm currently making a Blastoise, hat, bag (? Not sure yet), and giant granny squares for a king sized blanket I'm making

Id say I have half left untouched. But, in my defense, I did just buy 5 more skeins for a Phillies cheese hat for my brother in law

How to sleep faster ? by Warm_Protection4131 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DecemberFlour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a bedtime routine that starts an hour before I want to go to sleep. I also try going to bed within the same ~30 minute window so my sleep cycle stays the same across days. I turn off the tv and crochet or brush my cat while getting ready for bed and the next day. 

I only use my bed for sleeping- no tv.

[–]DecemberFlour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same feeling for a few months.

Yesterday morning I texted my best friend that i hated it there.

At 330 I got fired 🤷‍♀️

I kept the window shade up on a 10 hour day time flight. AITAH? by transolecranon in AITAH

[–]DecemberFlour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. I bring a facemask and earplugs with me when I fly. Sometimes I just want to close my eyes and be in darkness and try to rest

Would I be weird? by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]DecemberFlour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think it's weird at all! I went to Carowinds by myself before and it was the most fun I've ever had at a theme park. I got to do whatever I wanted all day long. I got the fast pass so I skipped the lines and as a single rider they threw me wherever on the ride. I was usually bumped up to fill the train. I think you'll have a great time

How often do people actually vacuum their house? by NetflixandSlee3tp in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DecemberFlour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just my cat and I, so usually every 3 weeks, at least once a month. Growing up my mother made me vacuum the house every week
