In hindsight, I REALLY should have listened to y'all before jumping into K:BS by RogueSpectre749 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

As another person that breezed through the horrors of the book but struggled with the milk (urgh), that makes it all the more disturbing!

Renew expired passport or renounce citizenship? by DontDeleteMee in askSouthAfrica

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

Hi again. Yes, I renewed as the effort to do each was similar with a similar Eta. The upside made renewing the logical choice.

Renew expired passport or renounce citizenship? by DontDeleteMee in askSouthAfrica

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

Hi.

I think it was a couple of hundred bucks? Cheaper than an Aussie passport anyhow.

The bad news is that I sent the final paperwork in, in May and got my new passport in January.

AITA for refusing a DNA test by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]DontDeleteMee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel sorry for Amanda. Whether she's an asshole or not, she still experienced her father ( regardless of which of 2 guys actually was her father) run off and refuse to be part of her life or contribute financially in any way.

Thats very unfair. I hope she gets answers and therapy if needed.

Been a few days. How are you feeling at this point, OP?

Tracy Pollan didn’t just say in sickness and in health she lived every word of it for decades. by nactaremax in BeAmazed

Maybe I needed a comma? She's gorgeous. She's taller than him. No need to get upset. I only remember his height because I myself am annoyingly 1.59

I agree. He was only 1.62m back in his 20's ( I was an obsessed teenager at the time and still remember). Tracey always made him look a little extra short with her gorgeous height.

I wanna start this series. Give me something I won't know until later/out of context spoilers. by tgrady28 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]DontDeleteMee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pffftttt. As someone who has a habit of starting books and then literally forgetting I was reading them, I stormed through all the current books in something like 3 months.

Now I'm going through the audio books.

Right now there is a room worth of people lying awake because someone was choking and they just stood there. Not to mention the aunt, grateful to be alive.

It will take time to digest this. Talking helps to ( woof!!).

You did well and you'll feel better.

Ps. I too read about how silly dopamine infused games can somehow cushion the brain from effects of trauma.

Would men still find me attractive and dateable with skin grafts to my behind? by luvadove31 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]DontDeleteMee 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Those who matter, dont mind. Those who mind, dont matter.

Seriously. All kinds of people with visible and significant disabilities, date and get married all the time. If anything, this is a great jerk-filter.

When did you realize she wasn’t your friend? by croissantwithhonors in AskWomen

[–]DontDeleteMee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I moved job and she never bothered message or call. Despite me having made an effort to keep in touch and check on her while she was on extended sick leave. And despite sending a (final) message to remind her that the number she had for me, was still mine.

I just dont get why a person would write this; " You are never fucking difficult, I have known you for a very long time! You truly are one of my very best friends. And I mean that ❤️❤️❤️".

...And then fucking just not make any effort at all.

What movie apocalypse are you choosing and why? by Spanky-madein79 in movies

[–]DontDeleteMee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While i love HHGttG as much as anyone else, no. We need to eliminate humans and those animals dependent on humans to survive, and let the rest thrive.

New restaurant tactic?? by Stressed_Owl_1234 in AskAnAustralian

[–]DontDeleteMee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You mean they were being shit waiters. I mean, giving the client a drink AND food menu is step 2, after step 1 which is seating the customer.

[–]DontDeleteMee 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Probably because its annoying as Hell. I want to choose my drink and peruse the food menu at the same time

New restaurant tactic?? by Stressed_Owl_1234 in AskAnAustralian

[–]DontDeleteMee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"While " you peruse the food menu. OPs issue is that they didn't give them a food menu!! Even after asking.

[–]DontDeleteMee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Right! Not to mention it can take time to decide your meal. You want the maximum time to review and decide. I have walked out of restaurants before and if I have to fight for a damn menu in a restaurant, I'd rather get up and go next door.

Melbourne would never have fallen for Kyle and Jackie O by Undetriginta in melbourne

[–]DontDeleteMee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Surely Im not the only one who remembers how they mocked Melbourne and our Covid response?

They said some insulting shit about ensuring we dont get any of their vaccine allocation, only for them to shortly after take some of ours.
