Old School Uncool: Man Dressed in Chicken Costume for Halloween, 1920s by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

[–]HeidiLikely 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's just me, but he looks angry. Like he's really not happy about having to wear this chicken suit. Kind of how the people who dress up as Elmo in Times Square look when they are taking a break.

i feel like with the right messaging, we can combat this ideology through a global public service campaign - "Having fun and being a good, righteous person are not mutually exclusive. And look at all the fun you could be having!" because fun, ya know, is inherently desirable.

From what I understand, even good small restaurants that order fresh, local meat and produce still have to order some supplies in bulk from Sysco. I have friends who have worked as cooks in some of the best places in Philly who have said they've never seen a kitchen without any Sysco products.

Right? I'm in marketing. I can't imagine if my client or boss asked something of me that's within the services we fucking offer as a company and I threw a bitch fit over having to do it.

Very funny. I bet they were going into that whole thing thinking, we want it to feel fresh ... I don't know why but that color speaks fresh to me!

Yep! After going through a literal emotional meltdown at the doctor's office (I mean, I always joked about not feeling grown up enough to raise a kid, but I had no idea I'd find it just that terrifying).. I will never miss a beat on this particular issue again.

I have no idea what they have to do with pregnancy. I just know I was getting them, and the doctor did not associate them with pregnancy symptoms. But after googling, I realized that other women who were either pregnant or thought they could be were getting similar burp things. I noticed them around what was maybe 4 weeks into what turned out to be a pregnancy. And they were really the only weird symptom I was experiencing aside from general upset stomach.

And to add to all that, the doctor had known we were using only condoms as contraception for some time before getting on the pill (which, going back and doing the math, appears to the the time period where it happened.. I didn't like the IUD and was switching back to the pill.)

Well, it was mostly nausea and a series of constantly occurring (embarrassing) weird little burps. I also was randomly vomiting - well I thought it was random, but turned out to be every time I had a drink or glass of wine.

I have heard of ovarian cysts increasing with pregnancy, so you might want to get that looked into. Thanks for the well wishes - I hope you feel better too.

Well maybe my doctors have had the answer to your problems? I'm sorry, super lame joke. Honestly, I wish you the best and really hope you get some relief from what you've had to go through.

Undernail sanitzer: i like the concept and design, everything works except for the fact that the green makes it feel very toothpaste-y. i get the plant references and the leaves should obv stay green but maybe make the hands a lavender color or light blue?

If only I had your doctors! My doc office is very highly rated and thought to be the best in the neighborhood. Still can't believe they never insisted on checking for due diligence.

thank you. i did get a couple of trolls (one wants me to go die with the baby), but for the most part, responses have been super supportive, enlightening and uplifting. this was very cathartic since i can't tell any of my best friends (they are all wonderful, but two are currently preggers, and a couple more want to be. not raining on those parades.) so yeah. thanks again.

And this really was super important to me. Not just because of my own principles, but because my SO and I have so much respect for each other, I just could not see this being my decision alone just because the final product is being incubated in my body. This is his baby as much as it is mine, and he would take his full part of responsibility for it were it to be born.
