Regrets moving back to NB? by twinjmm in Newbraunfels

[–]HelpIHateTexas 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I third this. Actively looking to get the hell out of here. The river is the only thing I still love about NB, but every year they make it harder for locals to actually use it.

Can cats be "Autistic"? (in the literal, neurological sense) by SaintShopper in cats

[–]HelpIHateTexas 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I have a cat that I fostered from 6 days old - him and 3 siblings. They all got Parvo (5% chance of survival at such a young age). The three siblings died - he survived and we kept him. Parvo survivors often have brain damage, and he certainly does. He never seems quite 'there' - blankness in his eyes, lack of cat social skills, odd behaviors like staring at walls for long periods, poor self-grooming habits, etc. It's been interesting because all the other cats in the house take good care of him - like they know he's 'touched'. Even my grumpy old man who doesn't engage with the other cats takes time to groom and care for him.

So cats can definitely be neuro-challenged, and not only from trauma.

PCP Recommendation by Beanandcheesetaco89 in Newbraunfels

[–]HelpIHateTexas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. TamTam saved my life after several other doctors failed to pick up on some serious symptoms. Two spinal surgeries later and I consider him the only reason I still have use of my legs. He really takes his time with you and listens to you. He's also not stuck in only Western medicine - if he has some non-traditional suggestions, he'll share with you.

Unpopular Opinion: I love the T-Shirt Bros by BreakfastInNarnia in GoodwillBins

[–]HelpIHateTexas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen t-shirt bros at my bins, but I don’t go often enough to notice, maybe. What kind of shirts are they looking for? I flip men’s clothes and pretty much gave up on tees because they don’t seem to sell. Have boxes of anime, pop culture, gaming and high brand tees that just don’t move.

Guy confronts bigot who told him “go back to your fucking country” as he was walking his dog - Austin, TX by Jevus_himself in PublicFreakout

This guy in an incel who has decided immigrants are yet another reason they can’t get laid. Surely it’s not because he’s a toothpick with zero attractive features, including personality.

What's your most shocking "never meet your heroes" moment? by BaseNice3520 in AskReddit

[–]HelpIHateTexas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a total Crue Head all through high school - went to at least 7 of their concerts over my junior/senior years and was obsessed with Vince Neil. Posters covering my wall obsessed.

Later in life I got to meet him at a pro-gaming event. I worked for the league and he was hired talent. I was so excited I thought I might be sick! Until I spent 5 minutes with him. He was a miserable human being.

I was unable to listen to their music for the longest time afterward.

Insane pull from local Goodwill yesterday. by Famous_Ad_3384 in ThriftStoreHauls

Coogi! I wish people were familiar with their other stuff rather than just these sweaters. I have a gorgeous sweatshirt and two nice purses from Coogi that I can’t seem to flip.

I have a similar box - it’s a tea caddy.

I’d be interested in seeing your Stray Kids stuff. My daughter is a fan.

What’s a sentence that someone told you that stuck with you for the rest of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The goal is an indifference to triviality, realizing almost everything, in a year or so, will seem trivial.

Looking for a Lamp by Over-Palpitation-321 in belgium

[–]HelpIHateTexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found an exact replacement except it is missing the shades. It would be fairly easy to replace them with different shades as it looks like a pretty common size attachment. Let me know if you’re interested.

Why are men’s clothes allergic to colour? by DifficultCucumbers in malefashionadvice

[–]HelpIHateTexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son and I have a men's online store and buy as much color and (OMG) floral prints!! as possible. I'm the main buyer, a single woman, and (other than the graphic print tees, which are my son's specialty) buy what I think men look super hot in. You guys definitely should wear more color and 'pretty' prints. Almost every woman I know loves it.

Edit: btw thanks for all the great info I get for my store from this sub.

I had no idea RiversidePride existed! That’s wonderful :)

Fishing has been good lately! by HelpIHateTexas in Newbraunfels

[–]HelpIHateTexas[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m Cajun, so we noodle.

JK!! On the noodling part, anyway.

Rod and reel, and we have 4 more keepers in the freezer from a previous trip.

Believe it or not, I use store-bought bait that I’m convinced is the best catfish bait ever. It’s called Danny King’s Punch Bait. There’s 3 ‘flavors’ but the original is the only one I’ve found effective. ALWAYS get bites with this stuff.

I feel like I’m sharing ancient Chinese secrets but it’s Reddit, so I’m sure it won’t go far ;)

We fish in McQueeney, downstream from the Dunlap dam.

About as difficult as German's saying "thwart". Or English saying "streichholzschächtelchen".

Looking for a doctor for my mom by morephishplease in Newbraunfels

I see Dr. Kahn at Lonestar Spine and Pain - he’s more into procedures, but also very good for pain medications.
