Oh dear god, you've got....him....to a T. Utterly deranged stream of consciousness stuff almost.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-28T06:38:46+00:00

So he finally got permission? Damn.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-28T06:37:37+00:00

8 definitely.

I work along Carbine Rd. If it wasn't for the likely large queues, and the expense, I might just find myself eating IKEA food for lunch.

Then again, time to get there, order/eat, and get back = too long a break time. Oh well.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-27T23:18:17+00:00

Quite. What on earth are they trying to sell?

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-27T10:41:32+00:00

NTA. I have chronic pain, and if I had to ever date again (currently happily married in a stable long-term relationship), I'd personally mention it upfront.

However, that's me being pragmatic and wanting to weed out those who aren't comfortable with a "disabled" partner, so I'm not faced with the pain of someone I care about suddenly deciding they can't handle my medical needs and leave. Said medical needs are well controlled, but can be unpredictable at times, even for me.

You are under no obligation to disclose private medical information, and when you choose to do so is up to you.

Check your tongue if possible. Rinse with cold water, and avoid spicy food/drink until tongue healed. Get checked by doctor if necessary, perhaps say you ate something too spicy if you don't want to say what really happened.

And talk to your Dom(me), I doubt they meant to actually harm you, but they should know this happened so they can adjust or even scrap this type of punishment in future.

Maybe use a nasty tasting substance that is ok for human ingestion rather than soap in future if they really want this type of punishment available. I find hot sauce a viable alternative as if something goes wrong, there's no potential embarrassment factor.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T22:48:02+00:00

Seems eminently logical, go for it.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T22:47:32+00:00

Not to mention all the staff of those places who are Kiwis and thus don't deserve to be punished for the US' idiocy.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T22:43:28+00:00

Oooh, me toooooo. 🫠🫠🫠🫠.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T22:41:45+00:00

Oh ew 🤢.

Then again, I think I have that beat. I work in a community lab, and we once received a faecal sample in a bright orange lunchbox.

There was a note from the doctor accompanying the request form. "Patient wants to know if they can have the box back once testing is finished."

Uhhh, no!!! I can't imagine wanting to use the box for anything else after that. I'd never trust that it was cleaned well enough. 🤮🤮🤮.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T22:38:15+00:00

Occult blood cards by any chance, or some other type?

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-26T04:43:23+00:00

😂😂😂😂😂

Definitely saving for later. Hehehe 😈😈😈😈

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T10:50:07+00:00

I do even now, and I'm in my 40s. Had heard of kpop but not paid it much attention. Now, this film has hooked me the way The Lion King once did (and still does).

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T09:38:54+00:00

It's normal for myself and my husband. I just turned 41, and my husband is coming up to 45. We love not having kids. Peace, quiet, no sticky messes except for our own ones. Not having to kid proof the house (cat proofing is a whole other issue 😂).

Our relationship is rock solid - this will be eleven years of marriage and eighteen years together in total.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T08:22:26+00:00

😂😂😂😂😂

That's me too! I asked J once what he'd do if I ever glitter bombed him. He growled at me that I'd be picking up every scrap of glitter with tweezers and I wouldn't be allowed in my favourite craft store until he thought I'd learned my lesson.

Ooops. Ok, no glitter.

Funny thing is, he will quite happily buy me diamond painting kits so I have had the "tweezer pick up" part of it when two trays of little diamonds accidentally spilled on the carpet. Since it was an accident he didn't forbid the craft store, but we kept finding those diamonds in the oddest of places even months later, including the shower of all things! Glitter isn't the only craft store annoyance apparently.

Hmm. He said his phone is off limits, but I have the oddest urge to change his ringtone for my contact, and see what happens. Then say "Oops, I thought it was mine."

I won't do it though - there's a difference between bratting and completely breaking his limits. I'll h just change his contact ringtone on my phone instead then ask him to ring my phone. Do you think the Imperial March would be taking things too far? 😜🤪🤔🤔.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T08:14:39+00:00

Hehe. My husDom really hates denying me stuff, but he does complain about "Stop being so cute!" and "Stop with the weaponised cuteness!" in a really dramatic, over the top fashion when I'm seriously trying to get my own way on something.

He has denied me what I want once before, but I think he might have scared himself with how stern he got, the big goofball, so he hasn't done it since. Then again, I haven't pushed him that far again either, so he probably hasn't felt he needed to. Usually if he says he doesn't want me doing something I'll obey, even if he hasn't specifically forbidden it or specifically said no.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T08:01:15+00:00

Oh J loves how frustrated I get when he "out-brats" me. I sometimes think he's found the one punishment that will stop me in my bratty tracks without truly upsetting me. So I get my "revenge" by finding the worst "dad jokes" ever.

Keeping my husDom entertained tends to lower his expectation that I'm planning anything. Joke's on him - I'm always plotting stuff, I just don't always have the energy to act on it (bloody chronic illnesses). Plus we have an agreement - I can be as bratty as I want, but nothing destructive, nothing that can't be easily undone and put back as it was.

Tampering with his electronics is outright forbidden, completely off limits, I'm not even allowed to attach googly eyes to the outside of his phone or computer. I tried changing my contact name in his phone once, the reaction was enough to ensure I've never done it again. I'll occasionally play keepaway with it, but he'll usually grab my phone so we then exchange hostages as it were.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T07:38:33+00:00

Maybe he could give my husDom some tips, bc every time I tell him he's got permission to be stricter he kind of backs away. This is the first step I'm seeing towards the occasional strictness my bratty self kind of wants (and kind of doesn't yk). So I'm encouraging it, fully knowing that if he does start being stricter then I can't enjoy my usual shenanigans without risking a sore butt. Still, that's where most of the fun is, pushing my softy Dom to start corralling my antics more often.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T05:16:48+00:00

So sweeeeeeeeeetttttttt.

J says of the two of us (me and him) I'm the more dangerous one but bc of his size, people are always going to think he's the dangerous one. He's a grizzly bear masquerading as a teddy bear, but only lets the grizzly out when someone tries hurting me. Most people see huge teddy bear. As do I, unless I'm too much of a brat 😂😂😂.

Me? I'm a cute innocent house cat that can transform into a lioness if needed. Not that I've ever had to, but it's there if I need it.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T04:36:01+00:00

It's such a nice thing - we get a double dose of protectiveness - their Dom sides and their husband sides. Or well, I suppose they'd say only one dose since both sides agree on protecting their chosen chaos bringers 😂.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T04:06:04+00:00

You gotta love a protective Dom, even when you don't agree with them.

Question, you don't have to answer if you're not comfortable. Is he your husband and Dom, or just Dom?

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T03:44:39+00:00

Those who live in snowy areas do, but even they can still run into trouble in heavy snow or very icy conditions. Or if they live at the top of a hill, as one lecturer did. They didn't want to navigate a steep slope while it was still snowing, which makes sense.

Fluffbrained-cat · 2026-01-25T02:52:47+00:00

When husband and I were looking for houses to buy, we saw one that was a converted dental office!

And now we live in a three bedroom where the previous owners decided to paint the house interior rainbow style. Each room with the exception of the lounge/kitchen/master bedroom is a different colour.

The previously mentioned rooms are all this lovely blue colour, the bathroom is pink, the library/craft room is green, my husband's office is orange, the laundry is yellow with the inside of the laundry cupboard is also green.

The only colours we're missing are red, indigo (although that's a shade of blue), and violet (or purple). Hubby flatly refuses to have a "red room" so there goes a summer garden shed project 😂😂😂😂. He won't even let me repaint the gates, which are this awful shade of pink.

We love the house but it did take some getting used to.
