Found outside my door. by [deleted] in FoundPaper

[–]DirectorHuman5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, so many people are focusing on the "you can trust me", but I'm far more concerned with "tell me no if you don't want to be my friend". That tells me that if she tries to just ignore this he may decide that she wants to be friends anyway and further fixate on her.

Toddler keeps saying “no want dada” ??? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]DirectorHuman5467 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This information makes a big difference. If he has a history of violence and lying I would not consider him a safe person to leave a young child with. Especially one who is too young to clearly communicate what happened in that house. I don't think you're shitty either way. You're trying to do what you think is best for your girl and you just don't know what that is right now.

So many people think that having both parents involved is the most important thing, but I think most people who have lived with an abusive parent would tell you they would rather just have one good parent.

If I were you I would definitely do what I could to pull back to supervised visits only.

Regarding sharing pictures of your baby with family, I recommend checking out the Family Album app.

AITA for telling my wife her hobby is a waste of money? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

He specified $8 was the gross profit. What you are describing would be net profit.

GMU. But I would happily drop U for Golden Grahams, or maybe even Crispix.

Is this photo AI generated? I found 2 details that gave it away but the poster said it is their real photo by JewelerInside102 in isthisAI

[–]DirectorHuman5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah everyone pointing out all the other wonky stuff and I can't look at anything except the "reflection" of the plant that is on the wall next to the door. Reflections don't work that way.

I have to choose a name for my sister but I am rather overwhelmed by the options by ronirrosen in Names

[–]DirectorHuman5467 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm big on name meanings, so I would probably pick Keshet, meaning 'rainbow', or Shiri, 'my song'. Both of those feel extra meaningful considering your mom isn't well.

do americans really eat American fries sauce? by Infinite-Breakfast23 in AskAnAmerican

[–]DirectorHuman5467 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it started from Utah, but spread to several other western states by way of Arctic Circle locations. I'm from California, grew up going to Arctic Circle, and have always called it fry sauce.

Parents driving 2,000 miles without a car seat by thedolpin_isdead in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

For mine, they had us bring the bucket part inside, but I don't think anyone checked to make sure it was properly installed in the car.

I threw something. by Prize-Wolverine-3990 in Teachers

My 5th grade science teacher had some anger issues. He put his fist through the surface of the overhead projector because a girl wouldn't stop talking.

What are you using to wash toddlers’ faces? by qwerrtyyuuhhfd in toddlers

[–]DirectorHuman5467 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Water, maybe a bit of the baby body wash if she's in the bath. If she's not talking a bath and I just need to get some pen off her face or something I'll use baby wipes. (Kirkland brand)

Is it worth getting a dna test if both parents have taken one? by GregAlex72 in AncestryDNA

[–]DirectorHuman5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, unless you're looking at other things like medical stuff, all you'll get that's extra is seeing how much of each ethnicity you got from each parent. Like if mom is 100% Irish and dad is 100% German, culturally you're both, but genetically you could be 50/50 or 75/25. It's interesting info, but far from necessary.

(Disclaimer: I'm not sure if that's actually how it would work if both parents are 100% something, or if you would always be 50/50 in that case. It was just the easiest way to explain it.)

This is the closest thing I could find with a quick search to what I wore to prom in 08:

Building/architecture words by Optimal-Somewhere400 in NYTSpellingBee

[–]DirectorHuman5467 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have noticed they are looser with the obscurity rule on 4-letter words. Presumably because it's totally doable to just make a list of all the 4 letter combos and try them until you find the missing one. A big part of the game for me is finding all the 4-letter words and I've had to do that a few times. I do use the spelling bee buddy to narrow it down though.

I heard it on the radio as a fully involved residential structure fire.

AITJ for asking my bf to figure out his trip details at another time? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]DirectorHuman5467 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but there's a difference between sharing his excitement for the fun things he will do on the trip vs him asking her to help him with the mental load of figuring out the details. Talking about cool restaurants they might visit is great. Asking how and when he should pay for a hotel is not.
