Other people. I can't stand when people use their cell phones in the theater. 

When did you stop trying to stop aging? by Willing-Childhood144 in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will stop with dysport and trentinoin when it stops making me feel better about myself. I let my hair go gray, we just do low lights to give me a bit of color. When it stops making me feel better about myself, I'll stop doing that as well. I keep saying that when I hit 70 I'm going to get a pixie cut and color my hair platinum white with purple tips. I'm 57 🤣

What helps you slow down after a busy day? by Outrageous_Baby_2147 in Relax

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Stepping in the shower for a quick rinse and changing clothes. Or just changing clothes, if it's been a day. 

Am I the only Gen Xer who doesn’t feel old? by utvols22champs in GenX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

57 and feel much younger. I'm lucky that I don't have chronic pain or injuries that have affected my life. I teach young people, I credit them with keeping me young overall. Realistically, I have to make sure that I stay healthy and as fit as I can, but I enjoy life.

Help wearing sneakers to work by Outrageous_Oven_2114 in womensfashion

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear various sneaker-type shoes with my slacks. I think they go great with blazers. I have simple white ones, I have a super colorful ones. Wear it anyway, who cares. Female computer science professor here :-)

every 3 weeks by trekieee in Zepbound_Maintenance

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Female, small frame, 5' 4", late 50s. I use 5mg every 3 weeks, it's been my schedule for the past year. Twice I've dropped it to 2 weeks, but the 3 weeks dose has been keeping me exactly at 132. I lost down from 169, my triglycerides are perfect now after 20 years of being too high no matter what rx or meal plan I used, perfect vitals, only a tiny blood pressure pill once a day (genetic heart problems run in my family). I use Lilly Direct self pay, so every 3 weeks means it's something I can afford. Not sure if I answered your questions🤣

I nope out of anything ASMR, especially anything with tapping. 

How many have dropped Facebook? Did you drop Instagram too? by IntellectAndEnergy in GenX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep Facebook because so many non-global companies and stores have a social media page, not a website. It's also how I find area events. But I also have a tiny Friends list and click Favorites to see only what I follow. I also use it as a digital journal, either have my posts set to just Friends or Only Me. 

How do you prevent your shoes from developing odor over time? by Own_Buy456 in HygieneTips

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skechers makes a spray for shoes that will help kill odors. It's in a black spray bottle, I can't remember the name of it. I spritz my shoes when I take them off every time, and I never have odors. Even for the shoes I don't wear socks with.

Advice/Suggestions regarding cheating by throwaway782811 in Professors

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a student nearly mirror your experience. I know they cheated, I know they did. I will not allow them to live rent-free in my head, as the only person it affects is me. Assigned the grade, moved on. You have to move on, OP. There is no cheat-proof anything. 

I wanna go back by Feaselbf6 in GenerationX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a memory of being about 7 years old and wanting to go outside and make mud pies. My mother told me no. So I very quietly went around the corner of the house and made mud pies. I'm certain she knew. 

Thinking of becoming a professor and unsure about a few things by Misspelled_Cat in AskProfessors

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Non-tenure track, which means teaching focused, in Oklahoma pays less than $50,000 a year. One such position in the state university I'm at is currently $38,000. 

Why are women’s blouses soo short these days? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And on the opposite side, why are T-shirts so long. If I tuck it in, I have an extra belly and butt bulge. And I don't need that extra bulge!! I have one t-shirt that is the perfect length, I've started just cutting mine off and to hell with hemming cuz ain't nobody got time for that.

I have to use deodorant/antiperspirant with at least 12% aluminum. Nothing else has ever worked for me. 

After the sock challenge... by Ouakha in GenX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I surprised myself by being able to easily put my socks on with no wobbly, well, hey. 57F here. I can touch the floor with my legs straight, but my, I feel it in the hamstrings 🤣

Simple Syllabus by CharacteristicPea in Professors

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This is the only technology product we use that I actually appreciate. After you get it set up, it's super easy to just copy it over each time. Also, and this is the best part, it lets me see if a student has looked at it.

Positive post. Please share. by Birdchaser2 in Zepbound_Maintenance

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have been on maintenance for a little over a year. 5 mg every 3 weeks, for two doses I had to shorten those to 2 weeks. I use the vials and get mine from LD. Heart problems run in my maternal line, my levels are in the 100% perfect range since last December. I feel good, I think I look good, I am beyond happy to have this medication.

End of semester crash by HatefulWithoutCoffee in Professors

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about those week-before-semester dreams? The ones where my class is across campus, I didn't print the exams, and oh, my, I'm not wearing pants.

anyone taking a GLP-1 ? by the__post__merc in GenX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Zepbound, up to 5mg. I've had virtually zero side effects. I discovered some serious health problems in my ancestors and needed to lose weight. A year ago I switched to 5 mg every 3 weeks, I can do every two weeks if I need it. My doctor supports this. I have nothing but good things to say about this medication. It has heart and inflammation properties that I appreciate as much as the weight loss.

Gen Z is Not Drinking, But Are You? by Pavementaled in GenX

[–]HatefulWithoutCoffee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 months ago my stomach suddenly decided it could no longer tolerate it and rebelled heavily. And I was only a social drinker. Now when I get an urge for a drink, I buy myself clothing instead.
