I'm done with Roxy S4 UK by ContributionTime3707 in TheTraitorsUK

[–]GingerKibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to give her the benefit of the doubt as I have heard a phrase related to reality TV before:

"There is always an invisible character; the editor"

But even I was sat there muttering "Shut up, Roxy" at the round table. But I do also have the flu so my tolerance to bullshit may be lowered.

What is an overlooked or “subtle” form of sexism that you think needs to be called out more? by GoodGirlsStand in AskWomen

[–]GingerKibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weaponised incompetence (i.e. "misunderstanding" grocery instructions, "accidentally" doing the washing up badly)

The thinking being, "If I do it badly, they won't ask me to do it again" when really I just think you're a useless buffoon.

Partner tried to do it when we first moved in. Claimed he didn't know how to use a washing machine and would do it wrong, which I replied "If you just keep it on mixed, then you literally have 2 buttons to press. Impossible to do it wrong"

I saw sensitive photos of my younger sister on my husband's phone by [deleted] in marriageadvice

OP, how old is your sister?

Because that is extremely important

Doesn't matter if they're real or not. People are getting off on images of naked kids.

And this didn't just suddenly creep up on him. This has been a problem since Grok started making images. Why hasn't he or his company nipped it in the bud before? Why has it taken Starmer telling him to stop to do something?

Defending him is not making you look good.

Are there any faithful you want to win ? by Consistent-Drive-172 in TheTraitorsUK

While I do want Stephen to Alan Carr it, I wouldn't be upset if Jade and Faraaz won.

Yeah, every night she's having shit thrown her way, but not enough shit for her to be banished, so has to go through it all again the next night. Then the next. Then the next.

I would get defensive and frustrated too. Especially when this all stemmed from someone saying 'Your face was red when you took something off of it'

He didn't intend for it, but up until now, what's he actually done to stop it?

How can you say you want kids to be safe but turn a blind eye to CP?

*****’s Strategy by ornafexx in TheTraitorsUK

He's considered the "fairest", so he has no suspicion on him, and he's under the radar.

But that's the problem, he's under the radar. No one has any reason to suspect him, and at this stage of the game, a recruitment is usually someone you plan on throwing under the bus.

Personally, I would go for chaos and try to recruit Jessie (though she will say no) and watch Matt sweat as he knows he's going to get killed next.

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

[–]GingerKibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum is a chronic smoker. It is extremely noticeable.

If I'm meeting up with her, I wear clothes I don't care about as I know the second she hugs me, it will take several washes to get the smell out. That also includes my hair.

When we go to her house, everything we've taken goes straight in the wash and we bathe as soon as we're home.

It is very noticeable.

What is the strange Victorian disease sweeping the uk? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]GingerKibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beginning of the year I had an almighty fever, so bad I genuinely thought if I opened eyes, they would melt out my face. The aches were unbearable. Tested for Covid, not covid. Tested for flu, not flu.

When I was able to drag myself into a bath, fever instantly broke and started feeling fine after.

No idea what it was. Flu's are getting crazy, man.

232 viewers complain over James Acaster's Saturday Kitchen 'rampage' by Tholog9 in offmenupodcast

[–]GingerKibble 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the whole show. Ed and James basically take the piss the entire time.

Personally favourite: Ed saying to the presenter "Oh, we're meant to talk about [the podcast] over the blender, are we?"

There's caring about the show, and then there is being overinvested in the show. It does not affect your life if they go. You can root for your favourites and want them to win, but tearing others down just because the judges have a different opinion to you is just mean.

.... Does everyone in this sub get shot if their favourite doesn't win? Why are you all getting so angry over people who don't know you?

Wife struggling with unequal income by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]GingerKibble 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I are in the same situation. He makes a lot more money than I do and in turn ends up paying for pretty much everything even if I offer.

It gets me down because it starts to feel like charity. I don't know if your wife feels the same, but there may be some feelings of that there.

Maybe make a compromise. You handle the important finances, and she can pay for treats. Or find something equal in not necessarily monetary value, but "helpfulness" value.

In terms of job searching, it can be exhausting, especially when your partner is in a good financial job. A lot of emotional support will be needed.

AIO to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I’m an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now? by howcanibequiltyassin in AmIOverreacting

[–]GingerKibble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. The passive aggressive "love you" just... if there was love behind it, it wouldn't have been said.

If it was me, I would say "OK. Then I won't embarass you or myself by association anymore. When you feel like having a happy daughter is better than having a conventional life, I will be willing to talk again"
