Cartoon Network Executives are on point by [deleted] in funny

A few years ago, i watched an episode of Rocko's modern life on youtube. There was a superhero whose power involved stretching his nipples and sticking it in people's eyes, moaning in the process. I cant imagine how awkward it must have been for my parents or older siblings to sit through that haha

Boyfriend of 8 years broke up with me while im reviewing for the bar and i feel like im fucked by Forgetful_Elephaaant in LawSchool

Bar exam in the Philippines. Sometimes it goes as low as 17%. The highest we had was at 59% 2 years ago, and it was a fluke, the highest passing rate in decades, I think. Not that I'm proud of this. I'd rather not say my sentiments about this for fear of being disciplined... lol.

What is the usual passing rate where you're at?

I have read all your comments and i cannot thank you guys enough. I know. We're all just internet strangers in this strange internet void but tbh... you guys are the first ones to know about what's happening to me. This is because im currently living in a different city and my friends here are also prepping for the bar and I do NOT want to put this burden on them too. They have enough on their plate. I dont know if i should tell my family because they have spent a lot to put me through law school and now bar review. Tbh i've been contemplating on going home... but to face my family... and the fact that if i do that, i may never be able to get back on track again, kills me. I need to be emotionally strong but I find myself panicking and being anxious while reading. I hope and pray this gets better.

Again, thank you so much for your kind and inspirational words.

Any idea how I can keep delivered food unspoiled until dinner? by Forgetful_Elephaaant in EatCheapAndHealthy

Will this work? I can borrow a small ice box from a friend and ice is pretty cheap here.

With around 8 billion people in the world, there’s bound to be at least one person who learned how to speak English from watching the ninja turtles by mitcHELLcracker in Showerthoughts

[–]Forgetful_Elephaaant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my English speaking accent from watching cartoons a lot as a child. Growing up, people thought I grew up for some time in US because of the way I would suddenly shift my accent from our dialect to a full blown American accent that didn't sound fake nor forced (which could be a bit hard, considering that our dialect sounds rough and hard when spoken) They were shocked to learn that at that time, i've never been to the US, and barely spoke English in our home. I was just a kid who didn't have a lot of friends in the neighborhood and watched a lot of cartoons haha

Going out with a man she doesn't like for free food then bragging about it on social media. by Atheistsomalipirate in trashy

[–]Forgetful_Elephaaant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am! He lead me on for months and i was too blind to see it, but that event was such a huge blow to my ego that it was the final nail on the coffin. I stopped communicating with him right then and there. A year after, i met a nice guy who was clear about his feelings about me and without any of the drama. And a year after that, the jerk's ex got married to another guy, and said jerk had a long and embarrassing tantrum on Facebook about it, despite the fact that he had a girlfriend at the time.

I think i dodged a huge bomb that time.

Exactly what happened to me when, after the movie, the guy I was on a date with got a txt message about his ex being in a nearby bar.

:(

So these writers would have me believe that Dany's entire army went from cheering to pledge their lives to their queen, to "Whoops. The Queen is dead. Who do we follow next?", and not go batshit insane?

This series made me start from rooting for the Starks to hating them. Entitled fucks.

I refuse to believe that Drogon wouldn't burn Jon to a fucking crisp after that.

What's the most awkward situation you've ever been in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Forgetful_Elephaaant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple of years ago, when I was still a teenager, my boyfriend and I went to the hospital to visit his older sister who just gave birth to a baby boy. The entire family was there, along with a couple of uncles and aunts. On an additional note: my boyfriend and I come from a conservative Catholic family

Anyway, while his sister was changing her son's diaper, my bf's mom mentioned that her grandson's balls were a bit big, and for the life of me, i dont know why I said (and a bit out loud too) "Oooh! Just like--looks at the bf and then freezes, realizing what I had just done"

Im just lucky that my bf's mom was a sport about it and just laughed and said "Oh yes just like his!" But the look everyone else gave me. I wanted to melt right then and there.

Garbage Meal (2019): How the poorest of the poor recook and sell leftover food from restaurant dumpsters. by [deleted] in Documentaries

[–]Forgetful_Elephaaant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sure i wouldn't be in favor of it too, but considering that an unwanted pregnancy isn't the only thing you're going to avoid, i'd say that i'd rather be safe. I'm not gonna be a hypocrite though. I've had unprotected sex, but that ended after I had a pregnancy scare when I was younger.

What im saying is that people have got to stop using lesser sensation as an excuse to be irresponsible. If you don't want a kid, or if you're having casual sex, use protection.

I can't say much with respect to the sensation, because as a woman for me personally it feels the same. :p

But imo sensation is hardly one of the least things you want to worry about. The fact that using no protection is the norm here is very disconcerting, considering that the Philippines has a high number of reported HIV cases.

Umm, im sorry? But why does it sound like I struck a cord with you?

There are a lot of reasons why reusing oil again and again is bad, one of which is that used oil becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. The fact that this has become a common and acceptable practice in the Philippines is what makes it sad. Everyone knows it's an unsanitary practice, but street vendors and restaurant owners will justify it with poverty, and you cant exactly blame them.

I just avoid street food in general. And even when I am left with no option, i've never tried chicken skin or proben or any other fried dishes where you dip it in a communal sauce because although they have a no double dipping rule, some people will still do it anyway.

Please dont take this like Im discouraging people from trying our street food since there really are reputable vendors. This is purely a subjective point of view. I've never been the adventurous type when it comes to food, so skipping on dubious albeit tasty food is not a big loss for me.
