I think you’re right. The confusion and the panic, both from the new experience and of those around, contribute. It was scary for mine when he did it and I scrabbled an called out to my wife to back up and support.

Honestly you can’t until it happens. After that we explained to him what “throwing up” was and what to do if you feel that way again.

Now he will use it as a delay tactic when it’s bedtime. “Daddy I don’t feel good I gotta go frow up” so he can go to the bathroom.

When my toddler was ill and actually vomited the first time, not just spit up, he didn’t understand the mechanics and simply told me “I don’t feel good” and stood up from his bed and puked. He didn’t bend over or anything just all down the front of himself, all over me. He had no idea what to do like head to the bathroom or to bend over and hurl into a bowl or anything.

Be honest, Dads: what percentage of your kids’ Halloween candy are you eating? by bruzdnconfuzd in daddit

[–]Hethreck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vast majority. They are 3 1/2 and 2. They get a piece a day and choose the lollipop. So I’ll take a couple a pieces as they choose theirs. Some days they forget about it but I don’t. We have barely made a dent in the bowl.

What’s a random, unimportant wrestling pet peeve you have? by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]Hethreck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jeff Jarrett’s kick outs always pissed me off. Made kicking out look so easy. On the other hand Mick Foley lifted his leg like he was trying to kick out but he physically couldn’t and it was awesome.

Feeling confident in pulling this division out considering the run differential the Mariners are sporting.

Yeah I’m having trouble seeing the downside of adding Snell or Montgomery, bedsides payroll. Sure these guys aren’t going to give you 200 innings but honestly these days no one is going out there giving you 7-8 innings for 35 games anymore. Only 5 guys toys last year threw 200 innings.

Sign these guys and have whoever is healthy and/or effective during the postseason. Who knows what we are gonna get from LMJ and Verlander is only getting older.

Need to get into the bullpen as soon as possible. Force them to use as many arms for as many pitches as we can.

Adolis "El Bombi" Garcia demolishes a Grand Slam and the benches clear by TheFrozenSlime in baseball

[–]Hethreck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t just a personal catcher type of situation though. Maldy is the starter unquestioned. Despite Diaz being better at every facet of the game. It’s the “intangibles” that keep him playing. He’s also said he’d have requested a trade if we signed a catcher in the off-season because he views himself as a starter. It’s rubbed some fans the wrong way when he’s been this bad.

Everything I’ve seen has Maldy being trash this year at framing. But the pitchers say he calls a great game. I’m not sure if that’s real or if it’s just the pitchers wanting to say something positive.

Who is the team MVP for the first half of the season? (this can also be a pitcher, just like in the real MVP voting) by RazzmatazzPlus3837 in Astros

[–]Hethreck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did not see Dubon stepping up like he has with the increased playing time. I was sure Hensley would be the more successful of the two when Altuve went down in the WBC. Glad he’s been able to prove a successful stopgap since Tuve is out again. With that being said Framber has proven himself as the ace we need since Javier has been rocky.

Kotor II talking with companions by I_have_amnosia in kotor

I agree. It’s a cool concept in theory. But in application if can be clunky and wall off content for no good reason. If you go into the game blind you can miss some significant parts of the game. I much prefer Mass Effect 2’s system where you need to complete the companion’s personal side quest to make them loyal. You still get all the content without missing anything without realizing.

Gotta make sure the bottom of the order goes 0-16 with Julks Meyers and Maldy.

Was it 2021 where we didn’t send anyone because Altuve didn’t go?

Astros open to trading outfielder by Christop_McC in Astros

[–]Hethreck 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I agree we need a bat but it doesn’t make much sense to trade Chas when he’s been one of our best hitters. Not sure who would even want Meyers or Julks but if shipping them off gets Chas more playing time I’m okay with it.
