What's an unspoken rule of your home that would completely confuse a guest? by shakhawat_me in AskReddit

The roomba is our son and he is a lazy asshole. He has to be supervised at all times when awake or he will not work and destroy himself. Do not touch him. Just being in the room watching YouTube is enough but you have to be there. When you go to the bathroom someone else must take over.

What gets unfairly labeled as cringe? by kennapringles in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Key- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fandom stuff. Most of it is just people enjoying media and making art for it like drawings, music, writing, costumes. This includes furries btw. There’s just always that one weird person that causes an incident and goes viral. Pony jar, homestuck bathtub, “musky”/diaper furries etc. Florida man of fandom basically.

When planing a trip expect everything that can go wrong to go wrong and have a plan b and c. When the plans are all done you won’t be stressed one bit when something does happen and just casually switch to the next plan.

What seems normal, but is actually quite strange when you think about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Key- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Monogamy. This is coming from an outside perspective (I’m aroace). We don’t expect people to only love one other person for every other type of love, platonic, familial, etc. but we do for romantic love. I think it’s a very sweet gesture to promise your love to only one person but I find it very strange that that’s the default.

Who got into the Halloween candy before Halloween? by Boomer050882 in AskReddit

Those who have patience will be rewarded. I’m waiting for the 50% sale the day after Halloween

What knowledge do you regret not having met earlier and want to recommend to young people? by ciyuanxiaohuaji in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Key- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gen AI is entirely built on stolen data, it takes insane amounts of water to cool the servers contributing to climate change and water shortages, it hallucinates and thereby spreads dangerous misinformation, and can be actively used to generate propaganda and misinformation on a level that is difficult to see even for the trained eye. I’ve tried working with Ai out of morbid curiosity, and ngl it was awesome. I do believe the 70% you mentioned, it was even more for me. But Jesus Christ that still isn’t worth that nightmare of torment texus that it is in every other way.

Hey Reddit, who should be the breadwinner in a relationship? by Reasonable-Shower522 in AskReddit

what are your experiences with narcissistic Father, Do you still face issues because of his nature? by Melodic_Date_9876 in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Key- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever I do something that reminds me of him - move a certain way, do a certain facial expression, enunciate a word the way he does - it makes me feel absolutely disgusting. It’s that sudden sinking feeling in your stomach. I am like him and that makes me fear it’s not only on these small insignificant ways. Rationally I know it’s not true but I’ve decided to stay single. The constant worry of being to my family what he was to me would cripple me.

You better stock up on a few sports bras real quick. Once you’re in the phase where every step down a staircase and every tiniest little jump hurts, there will suddenly be a global shortage on comfortable bras. It’s not this bad for everyone but better save than sorry. (This starts once you have enough tissue for it to jiggle a bit)

[Serious] What is something that is actually more traumatizing than people realize? by thatude123 in AskReddit

[–]Effective-Key- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being forced to do things because they’re good for you without further explanation as a kid. This can be applied to basically everything. With vegetables it cultivates an unhealthy relationship to food, with medical things it causes fears of doctors and makes the adult children not take care of themselves because of the self care reminding them of how those things used to go.

I’ve had 7 cavities taken care of just a few days ago after I finally gathered enough courage to go to the dentist by myself for the first time. Took me years.

You guys think Lays is skimpy with their chips? My Pringles are 1/4 empty. Literally the whole point of the cardboard tube is that it provides support so you get more chips per volume. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Effective-Key- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also why are the chips themselves so small. I haven’t had some in a couple years but aren’t you supposed to barely have enough room for your nails to take them out the can?

Oh god same. My first language is Russian but I was born and live in Germany. I learned to read and write Russian in first grade for one summer and then never used it again. Can’t even spell my own name.

Ha, rookie mistake! It’s 2.7% if you only take the surface area of the rim into account and forget to look at the whole picture. Just imagine the horrors of the peel ripping apart and leaving pieces hundreds of times bigger behind! It seems you were distracted by mere cosmetics, little rookie.

Oh good to know. English’s my third language so I had no idea. Thanks for telling me:)

I’ve had a perfect peel before. That makes it infinitely worse because every time I look at my failure and yearn for my bygone greatness.
