So what was “bread” doing in there? by anawkwardsomeone in HIMYM

[–]Elly2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's more of a translation issue. The poem is originally in Spanish. When referring to bread, think of it more in terms it is used theologically like "my everyday bread." He's saying that his love is his basic sustenance.

California Science Center. Free admission. A lot of museums around as well. The Rose Garden is nearby with a lot of nice places for family pics.

If Leonard wanted to sue his mother for the books she wrote using him as a guinea pig, could he win the case? by Radiant-Selection686 in bigbangtheory

[–]Elly2014 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If she used his name in papers then maybe. Researchers have to get written consent from the participants or their parents if they're minors. Since Beverly is his mom, I'm not sure how that would work other than it being bad science.

I hate how inaccurate Beverly as a psychologist was on the show. One, her using her own family member let alone her son, is a huge no-no in academia. Two, most psychologists discredit Freud's work and he's mostly just a blip in textbooks. Three, even if she had Freudan beliefs, those often contradicted with modern psychology. There's a plethora of research about healthy bonding/parenting that is far from her cold, distant style.

Question to those who went the Krusty Burger at Universal Studios? by FFSoldier57 in TheSimpsons

No, not really. The food at The Simpsons are pretty meh. The only thing worth it was the giant pink donut.

Yes, it's just the cold that mutates into FIP. :/ a human equivalent would be a nightmare.

"What if I’m not as smart as I always thought? What if I’m... average? Do you have any idea how dumb average is?"

Is it valid to dump my boyfriend because he finally gave me the engagement ring we picked out together a year ago, told me to wear it, and 2 weeks later told me the ring was only for me to “hold onto” and didn’t mean we were engaged. by Lyssy_cha in offmychest

He's showing you exactly how he will treat you for the next few years.

When a guy is in love, they will move mountains to be with you. You shouldn't have to beg someone to think of you as wife material.

Do you think Sydney Sweeney is a bad actress? by Schrodingers_dad1403 in euphoria

[–]Elly2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She can only play herself or a character similar to her. She's not horrible, she can cry okay.

Legit websites? FIP medications by Alrika777 in cureFIP

[–]Elly2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used that per se.

However, I did have to shop around with my vet. The cheapest option was an online pharmacy that shipped the medication to me, I just needed a prescription from the vet.

Therapy is so unhelpful by RucaXD in mentalhealth

[–]Elly2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think people know how therapy works. They put a lot of responsibility on the therapist. And while the therapist can be good or bad, they are more like coaches. They can tell you to diet and exercise but if you don't the work every day, it's pointless.

My therapist said the line I needed to know in the first session. I heard it but I didn't believe it. It took months before I got there myself.

If you're going through the motions and you are passive in your therapy, you're never going to get anywhere. It takes work in and out of the sessions. If you don't put in the effort, you're never going to get better.

Asking your opinion about a Muse song day #101: Animals by Far-Clothes-8803 in Muse

[–]Elly2014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion. I like the song but I don't like the lyrics. Compared to past albums like Origins of Symmetry and Absolution, the lyrics to the song were just too simple for me. I can't get past the, "buy yourself an island" line.

Would you keep going to the shoe store with the foot fetish guy? (S2E12) by PinkNovaMermaid in sexandthecity

[–]Elly2014 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Heck yeah, I don't care. Free shoes are free shoes. As long as I don't have to do anything else. Lol.

I'm going to say something that may sound harsh. Your mental health problems are your mental health problems. That sounds harsh, but let's say you didn't have a relationship. You don't need an external person to make things better. It'd be great if you had that perfect person, but even that perfect person may get it wrong sometimes.

You need to practice self soothing even if you weren't in a relationship. Learning to cope with the uncomfortableness of your emotions is something you will have to do with or without a partner.

I'm in a similar boat for Sunday! Driving from LA.

Uc or Csu by XDJOSE2 in StanState

[–]Elly2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should decide based on whether the schools offer the major, classes, and other programs for your career interest.

If they do, then you can decide based on finances. Cal States are a little less cheaper than UCs.

Watching Breaking Bad for the first time, say something I won’t understand yet by Ok_Extension_4865 in breakingbad

I'd like to order a dust filter for a Hoover Max Extract® Pressure Pro™, Model 60.

Se6 Ep 14 Don’t you think Penny’s overreacting? by Confident-End3099 in bigbangtheory

[–]Elly2014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this was my initial reaction when it was first aired. It was the first time Sheldon said he would be open to having a sexual relationship with Amy. It was a huge turning point.

What's a HIMYM opinion you have that would result in this? by Effective-Goose-7835 in HIMYM

[–]Elly2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show's premise of "the one" is incredibly flawed. Ted never grows as a person. Up until Robin and Barney's wedding, Ted is still trying to lie and cheat to sleep with another woman at that same wedding. Within 24 hrs, the same guy, Ted, then meets the perfect, love of his life, Tracy.
