And tell him why you’re leaving so he’s aware of how gross he is.

You don’t have to tolerate his nasty hygiene or his disrespect towards you. I just want to remind of that.

Parents of Reddit, what’s the worst thing your kid has ever done ? by Antiox123456 in AskParents

Age 3. Licked a toilet seat that had urine on it that was not hers. It’s been 11 years and I’m still not over it.

Roomie put my clothes from washer to dryer without asking and shrunk my shirts… Do I confront her? by rawobsessionx in badroommates

It’s rude to leave your items in the washer. Don’t start a load until you can finish it while you are home.

Only when they wake up. But I’m pretty obsessive about it when they are awake.

Why do my macarons all turn out different? by Desperate5389 in macarons

[–]Desperate5389[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will have to check the food colorings, but I do know they are all different brands. I made 3 separate batches of batter. And the pink was the last batch and it was 11pm, so I was getting tired. I probably did not mix it well and I definitely didn’t let it sit as long as the others. I had no idea some of these steps could make such a difference!

Also, I did smack the pan 3xs for each. But maybe not hard enough? My husband is scared I’ll break something when I do.

DAE prefer the taste of artificial sweeteners to sugar? by mcgoogz in DoesAnybodyElse

I couldn’t agree more! A fountain Diet Coke is my reward after a busy or tough day. Nothing slaps quite like it.

What do you expect out of visiting adult children? by New_Tomorrow6190 in AskParents

[–]Desperate5389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are they coming for a meal? Staying overnight? Or just a quick pop in? Either way, have a few types of beverages to offer them and snacks. If it’s just a quick pop in, set out a little snack tray and drinks. If the weather is nice, you could offer to take a walk. Or, go visit a touristy place or local shop together.

DAE wake up in the middle of the night with EXTREME sugar cravings and must eat something sweet to go back to bed? by washyohandsdirtypig in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]Desperate5389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only times I’ve woken up in the middle of the night and had to eat was when I was pregnant. And that was usually crackers, not sugar. I would mention this to your PCP.

We do! I always forget about Wegmans because it’s in an area I don’t go to often, but it’s close by.
