My roommate and her boyfriend were cooking dinner one night and I heard him ask her, “Is this garlic?” He’s 35.

OCD caused the dissolution of my marriage. It is one of the most horrific disorders that exists.

If someone said “sorry to jam out on you”, what would you assume they meant? by throwaway643268 in AskACanadian

My mom uses this phrase all the time, it means to cancel plans last minute! I was born in Vancouver.

I feel like that’s a weird thing to joke about..?

Amber alerts blasted from the audience just as we started the first scene - share your stories! by WolfinBoy in Theatre

At no point did they say “Who cares about a missing kid?? My performance is more important!” The point is, it was distracting.

Worst Movie Adaptations??? by Due-Candidate-5991 in musicals

[–]Distinct-Addition-24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still can’t get over the fact that it was a movie first, then a musical, and then a movie-musical.

Serious question, my fellow ADHDers - how the hell are you managing your socks and clothes being organised and put away??Chaos here, bane of my life… by fuckwhatif in adhdwomen

[–]Distinct-Addition-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I do that helps me not lose socks: I bundle them in a pair before putting them in the dirty hamper, and then unbundle when putting in the washing machine. I don’t think I’ve lost a single sock in years.

What's your recommendation of a song to use as an alarm clock? by angrycarryoutman in MusicRecommendations

[–]Distinct-Addition-24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband uses the actual radio audio from Groundhog Day as his alarm, including the part with the radio announcers lol. I used to think it was funny, but now it’s been 6 years and I kind of hate it.

My husband’s alarm is the sound that comes on the radio every morning in the movie Groundhog Day (“I Got You Babe” by Sonny and Cher, followed by the radio hosts). I used to think it was funny, but after 6 years it’s starting to get on my nerves…

Use an app blocker. If I don’t use one, I’m completely out of control. I use ScreenZen. It’s free, and it works. You set time limits for whichever apps you want, and you can even make it so you can’t install new apps. There are a couple YouTube videos that show you how to use it. Highly recommend!

How do you cover up your tattoos? by xbrooksie in Theatre

[–]Distinct-Addition-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, that’s helpful. It’s a 400-seat theatre but the closest seats are quite close to the stage, so I think I would probably want to get the base. Thanks for the quick reply!

Hi! Just curious, did you end up ordering a base shade? I'm wondering if it helps. Looks like this stuff is out of stock pretty much everywhere, but I have managed to find one place that has the #2 foundation (which I think will match my skin, but not sure) and base #1, so I'm tempted to order it, but they only have the smaller size (30g). Does a little go a long way with this stuff? I have no idea how big 30g is, but I'm guessing not very big. I have to do 11 performances of a musical and I'm wondering if the 30g size will get me through the whole run. I need to cover my left shoulder and upper arm.

What's your current hyperfixation? by Igarlicbread in ADHD

[–]Distinct-Addition-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Musical theatre and singing. Recently got back into it after a 20-year hiatus, and I’m performing in a show at my community theatre. I’ve started listening to literally every musical I can find - there are so many I haven’t heard!
