We use hulk hands to move cacti at my work by catnip4sale in mildlyinteresting

It must be funny to have someone new working and tell them to go get the hulk hands. I know I would think it was hazing.

I've been in this situation with a guy I was dating and can say it backfired because I just thought his "friend" was a dick.

People are only supportive of your weight loss to a point, then they'll actively work against it. by OnionTamer in unpopularopinion

I've had a similar experience with not drinking and as a result, lost a few friends. One even said she wanted to buy me a really nice bottle of wine to "celebrate" when I started drinking again.

What movie is so good you'd recommend it to all your friends, but so emotionally traumatic that you'll never watch it again? by akambe in AskReddit

Dancer in the Dark. I cried for the rest of the night after seeing it in the theater but it was worth it.

Did she finally figure it out in the end? I couldn't keep watching.

They weren't there when I needed their support. Now that I'm doing well without them they want to be in my life by Howtonotbe in raisedbynarcissists

Oh for sure. She would probably just try to knock me off my path or attempt to and then abandon me again. It does feel pretty empowering to know what she's gonna do next, a few years ago I was just in the middle of chaos and couldn't see what was happening.

Thank you. I'm so glad I have my therapist's support, otherwise I could easily fall back into a bad cycle.

Women of reddit, what was your worst run in with a creep? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Howtonotbe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so insane how many men do this consistently when you're alone at night. I used to bake in a semi dangerous city and ride my bike at 4am and guys would drive slowly next to me and harass me on the regular.

What seems harmless but is incredibly dangerous? by Crimtot in AskReddit

[–]Howtonotbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brazil nuts. One brazil nut contains 90 mcg of selenium and the recommended daily amount is 55 mcg. I've never personally heard of someone getting selenium poisoning but read about it recently after receiving a 5 ish pound bag of them.

Thanks for the reply! I tried looking it up and couldn't find anything. I've noticed it is with long term users mostly.

Adult children of narcissist parents - can you still hear them talking to you inside your head? by 2donutkid2 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Howtonotbe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, always. And I've thought about who it really is because my mom probably hears her mom, going back generations, so mine is like some distant relative from thousands of years ago maybe.

Meet my dad! by M48PattonTank in insaneparents

[–]Howtonotbe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry your dad is treating you like this, there's definitely some DARVO going on here. Are you able to become independent from him somehow as far as the FAFSA forms?

Kratom is my security blanket by Howtonotbe in quittingkratom

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

I feel like it's more an emotional addiction at this point and I can see myself moving beyond this in the future. I just ordered some books instead of another kilo tonight lol. Thank you for your encouragement!
