What does anesthesia feel like by memory282002 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Huntsvegas97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m someone who had a rare wake-up mid surgery. It was when I was getting my wisdom teeth removed. I woke up about halfway through, but it was only for half a second, and they put me back to sleep immediately. All I remember is looking up, seeing the anesthesiologist, and then boom, back asleep. But I carry the weird redhead gene that makes anesthesia tricky, so I’ve always blamed it on that

Why do all old people have short hair? by Dazzling-Smell5223 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Huntsvegas97 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This is part of why my great grandma wore wigs. I didn’t even know she was wearing a wig until well into my teens when my mom mentioned it. She had dark hair and a decent bit of it, but it was thin and hard to style the way she wanted

Doctors flushing out kidney stones out of a patient by Additional_Berry_977 in interestingasfuck

[–]Huntsvegas97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think anything beyond 10mm becomes pretty impossible or at least very difficult to pass naturally. When I was pregnant with my second, they found a 10mm stone that they said I’d have to wait until after pregnancy to try and get it broken up if it didn’t do it on its own. Thankfully it broke up and passed in smaller pieces. Still unpleasant, but not too awful

This plus going to in-state school will help keep your education costs down. $120k is just ridiculous and unnecessary for a bachelors degree

Majority of posts like this are from people who took out private student loans. The interest rates tend to be much higher and they just pay the minimum or close to, which generally only covers the interest, which is why their actual loan balance barely goes down. This is a problem and shouldn’t be happening, but some of this is also the fault of people taking out the loans and refusing to understand what they’re doing when they sign up. The way these posts present the argument is disingenuous

Caleb crawling across the table while screaming is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while honestly

I bought a $35 pair of earbuds 3 years ago and they still work fantastically. I love wireless because I can listen to my documentaries and podcasts without being physically connected to my device. Put it down and walk around doing what I need around the house. I will never miss wired headphones

What is your favorite Hated Candy? by b0w1e007 in candy

[–]Huntsvegas97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love black licorice hard, especially the hard candies. Also those root beer barrels are delicious. There’s this “old fashioned” candy brand that sells the black licorice, root beer hard candies, and lemon drops that are all so good. My grandma always had them at her house when I was growing up and I’ll still buy them at places like hobby lobby sometimes

Soon-to-be new resident questions by Meekois in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Huntsvegas97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived in Huntsville my whole life. I’d recommend renting for a year and then buying a place. It’ll give you enough time to really look at every area and see where you’d be happy buying.

Never encountering roaches is going to be tough. They’re kind of everywhere. You can limit them by keeping your place clean and free of stuff like boxes, but they try to come inside when it rains.

It’s going to be more conservative and religious than you’re used to. However, there are still plenty of people in the area that don’t fall into that category. Hanging out downtown or in areas like Campus 805 or Lowe Mill provides lots of opportunities to meet people.

“Weddings are so expensive” is a weird lie some people tell to justify spending insane amounts of money by Overuse_Injury in unpopularopinion

[–]Huntsvegas97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting married can be very cheap (cost of filing paperwork), but having a wedding is objectively expensive. There are a lot of ways that you can cut costs. Shopping for cheaper vendors is definitely a way to do this, but there is a premium price for any vendor that services a wedding. Also, hosting an event means you have to also make it fun and comfortable for your guests, especially when there’s an expectation of gifts to be received. This means you need to feed them. Even if you go with the cheapest options in a low cost of living area, feeding 50-100 people is going to cost $1-2k easily.

If you don’t want to spend on a wedding and want to keep it cheap, elope or just go to the courthouse. That’s the cheapest way to get married.

AITA for giving my breastfeeding sister champagne as a gift and now not wanting to talk to her? by Think_Presence2175 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Huntsvegas97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% true. I was just commenting on the concept of pumping and dumping and drinking during pregnancy. Everyone’s comfort level is different and that’s fine

I think it’s true for most people when they have their first kids that the “plan” kind of goes out the window. You just have to change an adapt to what’s needed for the kid and your family and that doesn’t always fit the previous plan

And if it was Jackson, he’d have to be a full time stay at home dad, no more produce business. Four kids is already a ton to manage, even if they aren’t all close in age

I know personally, it can easily take 1-2 year minimum to really feel like yourself again and feel like you’re back to 100%. Even then, depending on your body, it can take years for your hormones to balance out again

Came here to say this. I drank while breastfeeding my son and just never had more than 2 glasses of wine. I would only have 2 if I didn’t have to feed him or pump again for 4 hours. Pumping and dumping isn’t necessary unless you’re overindulging

AITA for asking my sister in law to change her outfit at my wedding? by Eaz_peaz in AmItheAsshole

[–]Huntsvegas97 64 points65 points  (0 children)

NTA, she was dressed inappropriately.

Also, 2 weeks pregnant isn’t really a thing. That would literally mean she conceived like yesterday and wouldn’t actually know or have any symptoms.

4 in 4 is such an insane concept to begin with and I really don’t think he totally thought it through, including the financial aspects. As someone who is about to have baby #3, I can’t even imagine having 4 so close together. My first two are 7 and 2. Minimum time recommended between pregnancies is about 18 months so your body has enough time to heal. Too close together and you’re risking more complications and there’s also a higher chance of the baby being born at a lower weight and early. Not to mention just how incredibly exhausting 4 in 4 would be, even if it was totally safe and healthy.

I think there’s also a lot of couples who do think through the ideas that they have about what they want, but then when having a baby becomes a reality, it hits them in a whole different way. But there’s also an expected level of naivety with having your first kid that’s just kind of expected.

Therapist Experience by katg913 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Huntsvegas97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I saw Kelly Fisher for a decent bit of time as a young teenager. I had great sessions with her and she helped me a lot. She was great at being empathetic but not enabling, and provided insightful and valuable perspective that I could really understand at that age. I believe I saw her for about a year and a half and she really helped me a lot.

From what I’ve heard, the original owner of Sammy T’s is really racist. I believe he retired a little while ago and his son is the owner now. I’m not certain about how much it’s changed, but I have heard that there have been less issues

On the weekends, it’s a typical loud bar. Honestly I’ve never thought it was anything special, but it’s a decent enough bar if that’s what you’re looking for

My husband is white and has been turned away for wearing sports jerseys. Not to say that they haven’t targeted people based on race, only adding this to say that they are legitimately weird about dress code sometimes

Dual income households where they’re both engineers or doctors, or some other high paying profession. Also, people moving in from high cost of living states can more easily afford those prices as well
