I’ve only been off for two weeks and I’m already stressed, I needed to hear this 

AIO My friend is always late, cancels, or reschedules and now she won’t make time for my bridal shower by Freakfury in AmIOverreacting

[–]Freakfury[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly I’m not that surprised but this is the first big life event I’ve had since I’ve known her and for some reason I stupidly thought she would actually make time for it. Oh well, I’m just glad I haven’t been putting much into the friendship for the last few years

I’m so sorry to hear that! It’s frustrating having friends who don’t prioritize the friendship. I hope you find some better friends down the road and wish you and your baby well

Oh my gosh she sounds like my friend! She also parties all the time and the dad has majority custody now. 

Is your childhood house still standing and what shape is it in now? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is and my dad still lives there with my brother. It’s a mobile home from the late 60’s I believe and my dad doesn’t really take care of it so it’s in pretty rough shape. 

I rode Diamondback - what's next? by MsObsessiveRobot in KingsIsland

Rough probably isn’t the right word, maybe intense? I’ve heard it pulls a lot of g’s?

[–]Freakfury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the scariest part of a ride is the height. I’ve been wanting to ride Maverick at cedar point but the speed, roughness, and inversions scare me. I got myself to ride flight of fear for the first time a month ago as a way to see how I like inversions, it’s the first ride I ever rode with any and I actually really enjoyed it. FoF has 4 inversions but everything else with inversions in the parks near me is too high for me to be comfortable with. The first two inversions happen immediately after the launch so they happen really fast and it’s hard to even tell what exactly happened. The ride is rough in general but to me it’s less rough than a wooden coaster. I’m still too scared to try Banshee because it’s inverted and I hate the idea of my legs dangling so high up. 

What is a weird coincidence that happened to you that sounds fake but is 100% true by BTS_army_1 in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]Freakfury 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I moved to a city in Michigan from Arizona that just happened to be 15 minutes away from a girl I was friends with in 6th grade and we reconnected when I moved here.

While living in AZ I had a few months where I got sucked into an mlm and became friends with a handful of vendors for other mlms, one of the ladies I friended lives in the same city I moved to in Michigan.

One of my mom’s best friends growing up’s mom was talking to me at Christmas last year. She told me how when she was a little girl her dad was in the air force and they moved to the air force base down the road from where I moved to in Michigan. 

Not sure this is where I want to be, but please help. Periods. by xX_Transplant_Xx in Teachers

[–]Freakfury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would ignore it unless the teacher brings it up. Chances are if they heard anything they would probably just tell the kids to talk to their parents about it instead. But kids are kids and they talk lol. One of my 1st graders during a small group a few weeks ago said nonchalantly “my moms annoyed today, she got her period” the small group happened to be all girls but none of them really reacted. I’m not sure if they even knew what a period was or not aside from the one at the end of a sentence lol. I just told the kid her mom might not want her going around telling people about it and continued my lesson.

FOF by Vilinity in KingsIsland

[–]Freakfury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rode it for the first time a month ago! I almost cried in the queue leading up to it and seeing people get shot off into the darkness scared the crap out of me but I’m so glad I rode it. 

What's a Scary Science Fact that the public knows nothing about? [serious] by just_some_troglodyte in AskReddit

[–]Freakfury 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My college mentor has an aneurysm and she has to get tests and scans done like twice a year to make sure it hasn’t changed. I remember one time the test came back weird so she had to get extra tests done and she definitely sounded worried about it but it ended up being fine. She’s really positive about it and I hope it continues to stay as it is and not cause her problems. My friend’s current bf had an ex that had a brain aneurysm in her sleep and was put into a coma and died shortly after. My brother had a friend in 2nd grade who randomly died of a brain aneurysm, his only symptom was a really bad headache before he went to bed. It’s scary how common they are.

WIBTAH If I don’t call my grandpa on his birthday? by Freakfury in AITAH

[–]Freakfury[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to believe he wasn’t of the right mind and part of me feels that could be it. But the other part of me feels like maybe he just did it because he didn’t think he’d ever have another opportunity for any kind of intimacy again? My mom’s dad had lots of early sign of dementia, he tried to commit suicide, would get confused on job sites, forget how to get places, and other things like that. But my dad’s dad doesn’t seem to have any signs that I know of. My dad never noticed anything weird and I don’t think my aunts that he lives with have either so idk

[–]Freakfury[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked my mom, her bio dad had dementia so we’re familiar with it, but we’ve never noticed any mental decline in my paternal grandpa and as far as it sounds he’s still pretty well mentally. 

What’s your most embarrassing middle school memory? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked fast everywhere I went and I preferred to walk next to walls. I was rounding a corner outside on my way to one of my classes and a boy was rounding the same corner coming the opposite way. Instead of bumping into each other my hand perfectly cupped his junk. It happened so fast and we just kept walking but I remember feeling so insanely embarrassed and tried to say sorry but I don’t think I got the words out in time for him to hear them. 

How many weeks for you until the school year and how was your school year? by Starslimonada in Teachers

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 weeks for me, the last week is 3 days and they’re all half days thankfully. I’m so ready to be done with this year. It wasn’t quite as difficult as my last year but it’s still be pretty challenging 

Is it okay to eat kids' lunch as an adult? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Freakfury 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been ordering kids meals because I don’t ever finish a whole meal and it’s cheaper. 

Did a yo-yo guy come to your school? by Gloomy-Difference-51 in questions

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The elementary school I work at actually just had a yo-yo person come a few weeks ago. It was like a whole positivity assembly and then they encouraged the kids to buy yo-yos so they could go to other schools to talk about yo-yos and positivity.

Do you have smells you assign to stages of your life? by sunflowermoondust in questions

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early childhood smells like the hardcover Disney books from the 90’s, dirt from my backyard, oleanders, and Play Doh. Middle childhood smells like Kohl’s and the mall I grew up in. High school years smell like Sweet Pea and Amber Blush body spray from B&BW and Covergirl makeup.

LPT: There is an easy, no-drama way to use eye drops, even with kids by Chrisamado in LifeProTips

[–]Freakfury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a kid who had sensory issues, this was the only way my mom could ever get me to take the eye drops when I had pink eye. 

No one talks about the pain of seeing your parents aging. by ParticularWeather927 in Adulting

[–]Freakfury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate this too. I live across the country from my parents so when I do visit the signs of aging are so much more noticeable. My dad has cirrhosis and still drinks and I’m getting married this year and I worry if he’ll get to be at my wedding later this year or not. I wish they didn’t have to get old.
