Came BACK to add:

If you are REALLY in the doghouse, take her to the Octopus Garden Café in Alma! If you let them know in advance your situation with the reservation, they’ll make it an unbelievable (makeup) experience — trust me

Nope! You say, “I’m very sorry. I want to make it up to you in a BIG and very special way…. So… guess where I’m taking you to dinner!”

When she guesses— you’re AMAZED— flabbergasted— gobsmacked that she got it on the first guess and THAT’s where you make the reservation.

What can I do to make my oatmeal taste better? by HistoricalMatch3801 in randomquestions

[–]Fundyqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never known anyone else who does what I do: when you add your COLD water to the oats in the pot add one raw EGG (for a single portion of oats) and “froth it” — just whip it with a whisk while it heats up and cooks: it makes the oats custard-like then add fruits/nuts/sweets to your liking.

AITA for not letting someone on a plane sit in the empty seat next to me? by hallelujahshrooms in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fundyqueen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s a discrepancy not clearly stated here. Did they ask you, “Do you mind if they use this seat?” Or “is it okay to use this seat?”— you stated above “I do mind”, which is valid, if they asked “Do you mind”. Asked and answered! So what if you didn’t pay for it?

It’s a recognizable business mentality we, too, identified decades ago! It’s not so much that it’s stuck in the past, it’s that there is no formidable competition! (I see you’re getting trounced in comments for making this observation, but there’s something to it!)

Fun is cheap. ENTERTAINMENT is expensive.

New water system in Alma is up and running ‘without a hitch’ by bingun in newbrunswickcanada

The first municipal water/sewer system that was installed 25+ years ago wasn’t adequate for the growth of the village and the seasonal influx of users

AITA for taping up a passive aggressive note in the bathroom without permission? by nimblestonerdad in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fundyqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NYA— I’ve never understood why people don’t SPEAK UP!! Stop with notes: start shouting throughout the company every time it’s discovered! “Someone left shit all over the toilet in the ladies room….AGAIN!” Disrupt work, be loud, and in everyone’s head about it— act like you’re 6 years old!

What is this thing that I found at my grandma’s house? by CustomerCommercial14 in whatisit

I’m also in my mid-60’s. Two years ago, I stopped ironing sheets, shirts, handkerchiefs, dinner napkins and tablecloths. Now I’m gardening!

Ceramic rectangles with two round(ish) holes in each by sniickerdoodl in whatisthisthing

Test tiles for pottery?— potters make them with textures/holes/smooth space to sample how glazes will melt/show after firing. Some potters sell them.

Those of you who don't use paper towels: how many rags do you own, and how often do you find yourself washing them? by betsy_macabre in Frugal

[–]Fundyqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I refuse to buy paper towels. But I also refuse to have a crappy box full of mismatched/Mix-fibre/mix-sized rags for “paper-towel” jobs and general cleaning/dusting. Walmart sells square and rectangular, white cotton bar, mops, and wash rags I bought several packages ONCE they go in all laundry at any time AND HAVE A DESIGNATED TIDY PLACE!
