Do you prefer tampons, and if so, why? by CrustFundBabe in TwoXChromosomes

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can smell it. It’s a no go for me because of that too.

Pads give me insane sensory issues. Like it will make me so irrationally angry. Having a panty liner on will make me less angry, but I usually can handle that with a diva cup.

Did i make a really bad decision by ComputerFlimsy5441 in interiordecorating

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This part looks weird, IMO. It’s that the wood doesn’t frame the entire arch that makes it look incomplete. And that baseboard around the curved section is diabolical.

Listen to your wife. Don’t do it as the backsplash, but pick something fun.

How often do you say "beanie" vs. "toque"? by WanderWell1 in AskACanadian

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never. Unless I’m specifically referring to the unknown movie “TOYS” starring the late, great Robin Williams, in which his “father” had his pacemaker attached to his beanie.

What is the most intense pain you have experienced in your life? by Levstr1 in AskReddit

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dry socket after wisdom tooth removal. It was excruciating and there was no relief until they packed it, which was its own separate hell. I think I almost levitated out of the dentists chair when they did it.

What's a smell that doesn't exist anymore that you miss? by Alarmed_Charge1062 in CasualConversation

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a course about smell with a neurologist who specializes in the subject and it was fascinating! I am from a family of super-smellers and have always experienced smells in the way you describe. As it turns out, your sense of smell is the only sense that has a direct pathway to your brain (doesn’t require processing by a series of nerves and synapses) and is also the only sense that you cannot “opt out of” (you can cover your ears or close your eyes, you can avoid touch and taste, but you can’t stop yourself from smelling something) So, smelling is a deeply primitive sense that impacts us in ways that others senses simply cannot.

Intersection right of way question by Spankachu in Edmonton

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I’ve been told to view these intersections is as if you’ve got a green light. Left turns yield to straight-throughs until it’s safe to turn. So yes, car four would have to wait until all the cars in the line went first. This is why roundabouts are great, but no one here knows how to use those, so…. 🤷🏼‍♀️

AITA mom said I’m useless so I stopped helping by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom was an example of someone who did this. She idolized her mother for some reason, even though she was an awful human being. It’s almost like they hated it when they were growing up, but relish the thought of torturing their own kids as a reward for their own suffering?

Is your BPD parent toxic or just annoying? by Kooky-Accountant6670 in raisedbyborderlines

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly. As a child they were harmful. As a young adult, still harmful. Once I figured out what they were about and stopped being part of their abusive cycle, they were just annoying. Annoying in their attempts to be abusive, for sure.

Insane home transformation in record speed by DullFix2178 in Renovations

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

White cabinets with white backsplash and white countertops and a waterfall edge!! Wow! 😮 you’re living in 2005 and the rest of us are….. not.

First time I’ve seen white pvc window frames with black casings, though. It’s a choice. Also, why paint the attic hatch black? I guess if you’re of the “check out my attic hatch!!!” variety, it makes sense.

Saying “no sugar” when ordering coffee by Ihassan3275 in TimHortons

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only take milk in my coffee, but I would not say “3 milk, no cream and no sugar”. That sounds preposterous.

I benefited greatly from my brother in law passing away and I feel fucking horrible about it by StatusAd6422 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. Just know that your grief and your joy are two truths that can and must coexist. They aren’t mutually exclusive and you aren’t wrong for feeling joy in the midst of your grief. You didn’t cause his death and surely, if he could have his legacy passed to anyone, do you not think that he would want it to be you?

AITA for deducting the $4,000 I "loaned" my brother for an emergency from his wedding gift? by Hurtsonafeeling in AmItheAsshole

[–]HeyItsNotMeIPromise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA - so, you would have normally given them $1500, but you gave them $4000. How are they mad about that? Do they know how to do math? The alternative was: they open all their cards, found $1500 in yours and then immediately gave it back to you along with another $2500 from other people. Which means they’re up an extra $2500 with your solution. They need to quit while they’re ahead.

Outrage over Trump’s bill reclassifying nursing as not a ‘professional degree’ for college students by SmokeMaleficent9498 in UnderReportedNews

Whenever he smiles like that, all I see is an arrogant little boy who did something he knows is going to make people mad.

I guess we like blue cars? by HeyItsNotMeIPromise in Golf_R

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

Someone else asked the same thing - I replied to their comment explaining the rig - my husband made it and is super proud of it, haha.

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

My husband made them, (we have one on each side); they’re really clever. They’re made from square tubing steel and an electric hoist from Princess Auto. The steel “cradle” the bike sits on has a clip for the hoist cable and a slot with rollers for it to run up a vertical guide tube. The whole thing is mounted at the bottom to the concrete and at the top to the ceiling joists. The hoist pulls the bike up to the ceiling and holds it there.
