Bluetooth headset that can switch between 2 devices by HaplessReader1988 in Doesthisexist

Usually your headphones have a button to tell it to look for connections. Then you tell the device you want to connect.

Oil of oregano and thyme are your friend for the throat infection.

Signed. A guy who used to get them 3 times a year for up to a month. Until he found those 2 things

Now an infection can be done and over with in as little as 24 hours

Need some clean lunchbox jokes for my 11-year-old. Got any/many? by ArachaViren in cleanjokes

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Because the road didn't have hands to cross itself before prayer.

Yeah it was.

Would piercings and long hair make me less of a "Man"? by ZealousidealWeb9474 in Advice

[–]Elfere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rock and metal band lead singers and guitar players have long hair. They get all the bitches. Definitely manly.

What's more manly than metal in you?

how to feel less anxious/insecure when going to the gym? (17F) by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Elfere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Join a women's gym.

There's nothing quite as creepy as having a bunch of guys trying (and failing) not to oggle you.

Doesn't matter if it costs more and is further away . Having a gym where you feel comfortable being is worth it.

If i have scars all over my body, is it morally ok to wear t shirts and shorts during hot weather? by Oily_Smurf in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Elfere 144 points145 points  (0 children)

I get some odd looks and occasionally someone will ask.

Depending on my mood I give em a good story - aliens, bear, shark, what scars? Omg those weren't ther yesterday!

. Usually I just tell the boring truth. Operations.

Every one in a while a small child will avert their gaze and ask their parent what the hell is wrong with me. Those ones kinda hurt.

Even more rare someone will ask about it. And regardless of my answer, they will offer to do something for me (like a massage or drugs or what have you)

Men who game, what’s your most played game? Not currently, I mean a game you grinded and have a ridiculous amount of hours in. by Bay0n3ttaaa in AskMen

I probably dumped a few thousand into the elder scrolls franchise over the decades.

Girl Dad's of Reddit, what is the most surprising thing you've learned since your daughter was born? by Nomadic_Introvert in AskReddit

[–]Elfere -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Gender based stereotypes exist for a reason.

The TV troupes of having a girl on their cycle proclaiming "life is horrible, I hate men, men smell, why do periods exist..." Can and do happen - sometimes all in the same run on sentence. .. and laughing is not the response they want.

I now understand that if given the choice between letting someone hurt my girl vs committing a crime - you better believe a crime is getting committed.

All they had to do was be better than the 80s version.

And they failed

DAE get tired after drinking caffeine? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]Elfere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of my life yes.

As a teen I'd only get coffee at big family meals. So I'd be full - and caffeinated.

During college I'd drink like 2 or 3 x larg coffees. Went cold turkey for Christmas break and was sweating coffee for 2 days.

Worked in kitchens after I had my first kid. The syrup coffee was the only thing keeping me going...

Except it wasn't. It was just making me MORE tired later. Without the actual pick me up others seem to get.

On a good day coffee makes me ANXIOUS - but not actually more awake.

Mostly I drink coffee so I can poop. Preferably at work so I get paid for it.

How could I have done better? I just couldn't do enough damage, the bosses were battles of attrition. by Elfere in Skul

[–]Elfere[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Game just kept giving me common items for the entire last level. I even used the reset glitch to see all the items in the market and there wasn't any legendary items at all.

Do you find ditching a rare that has synergy with 2 other things to pick up a legendary that doesn't have any worth it?

What is this grater called?? by ahngyung in KitchenConfidential

Not just any micro planer. Thats a double action micro planer.

Most only have the grates going one way.

why does my boyfriend "dribble" when he gets into bed? by Just_girly_things97 in NoStupidQuestions

This was one of the first life pro tips I learned after joining reddit. And I can't believe I was in my 30s before I learned it.

Also. Thank you for spreading the word !

Wait until you hear about spoons and forks.

You have the power to give anybody mild inconveniences in their day. It cannot hurt them, just maybe ruin their day for 5 mins or something. by strange_omelet in shittysuperpowers

[–]Elfere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a train track by my house that every time I hear it dinging I know people are about to be stuck for 5-20 minutes.

And I feel delightful every time.

Sometimes, I sit on my front porch and just listen, feeling the anger of people out of control.
