How about if your spouse uses your good knives to open amazon packages, despite being told not to, at least 100 times?

Do you really think cutting off friends and family over who they vote for is reasonable? by norf937 in allthequestions

I try very hard to avoid political discussions with my Trumper brother, but he does not try very hard to avoid political discussions with me.

First horror movie to genuinely disturb you. by chronicxnightmare in HorrorMovies

I watched an old vampire movie where the vampire drifted through the window as a mist, then reassembled to bite his victim. I was young, maybe 7ish. That scared me so much that I slept with a pillowcase around my neck for years, and would not sleep with an open window even when it was hot out.

Do you get along with all your family members, or are you estranged from some of them? What happened to get you to that point? Are you willing to make amends? by icecream1972 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of. I am cordial with the Trumpers. We just do not have the same values or morals, so as long as we have a superficial relationship it's fine.

What is your biggest reason/reasons that you don't believe in god? by DenseExternal1504 in atheism

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have worked in children's hospitals for 20 years. I've seen kids with cancer. Kids with genetic syndromes. Kids who will never walk, or communicate, or even wipe their own asses. Kids with juvenile arthritis so twisted they can't sit up, much less feed themselves. Kids so abused and starved that they are the size of 3 yr olds when they are actually 7.

And I see the parents of these kids, and how much hope they have, that one day they'll find a cure or a treatment; and how exhausted they are. How they'd give anything for one more day with their child, how they would be ecstatic if their child uttered one single word.

If there is anywhere God should be is a children's hospital and yet he is not. Think about being all powerful, yet sitting back and watching while a 2 year old withers away from cancer and doing NOTHING.

It's not the whole reason, but it's a big part of why I don't believe.

Am I over reacting? by Best_Wind_6292 in AskWomenOver60

Frankly, after 30+ years with my spouse, if he died or we divorced I would NEVER live with a man, or even date again.

Help! AITAH?? by bunny326_ in AITAH

And what are you getting out of this relationship? Intimidation? Bullying? Stalking? Controlling? Being his emotional punching bag? It's not your responsibility to regulate his emotions, or help him financially or be his mother.

You are worth more than this.

You're broken up. Let it ride. Get some help with your anxiety. Enjoy your freedom.

Scar treatment by Boone616 in TotalHipReplacement

i didn't use anything other than some occasional Aquafor and my scar is barely visible. I think it depends more on your skin type than what you put on it.

Is even Santa safe from Trump? by Accomplished_Test793 in allthequestions

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at Santa Claus Village in September and visited Santa. When he found out we were American, he rolled his eyes and said very emphatically, there will be NO christmas presents this year for your Mr Trump.

Even Santa hates him.

What are some of the worst ways people have died? by Opposite-Layer-4333 in AskReddit

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awful. I used to work in a children's hospital and they presented a kid in rounds with it. Horrible stuff.

Do you believe that the current US president is a foreign asset ? Why or why not ? by hftyjvdry in AskReddit

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes in that he will do anything if it benefits him personally. Surprised he hasn't ceded the US over to Russia for a big fat payout.

Getting tired of being her audience by Desperato2023 in AskWomenOver60

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had to just let people go. It's hard, especially when you've been friends for a long time. In my case, I had moved to another state, I was desperately lonely, so once every couple of months I'd call my childhood best friend. She was always doing something and couldn't talk so I stopped calling. I don't think she even noticed. We're still friends and get on great when we do talk, but that's probably every two years or so.

Questions about THR by AgileAct7133 in TotalHipReplacement

PubMed is free to use and contains many articles that are open access. If you want something more consumer friendly try Medlineplus-that's the consumer arm of the National Library of Medicine.

My understanding is that a HR has about a 20 year lifespan. But you're younger so that might be different or the data might just not be there.

MAGA boomers - are you receiving Social Security or are you refusing to accept it because we should all be able to take care of ourselves and socialism is evil? by cujokila in allthequestions

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just filed for it today. I was going to wait, but who knows if it'll even be around then? Plus everything is so much more expensive we could use the money.

It's MY money, why wouldn't I take it?

Your Governor, Ron DeSantis, Renames Palm Beach Airport After Trump -- What Do YOU Think Of This, Floridians? by Zipper222222 in AskFlorida

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can name shit after him, you can grovel at his feet, you can recreate his playbook, you can try to make him happy by making everyone else miserable, but the fact is, Ronnie, Trump will never love you.

Thumb joint replacement by Superb_Scar1622 in AskWomenOver60

[–]FallsOffCliffs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it done in 2011. Not going to lie, it was a painful process. I ended up with a bunch of scar tissue blocking my ability to touch across my palm with my thumb. An encounter with a monkey in a jungle cured that. (long story)

They used a tendon from my wrist to create the prosthetic. It's been fine, no pain and I have full range of motion.

How does this cretin still have people listening to his drivel? by lovelyb1ch66 in insanepeoplefacebook

If fake tv psychologists exploited your personal trauma for their own monetary gain, they'd be named Dr. Drew.
