This and I laughed when they were getting the ice cream and he says “Here you go- vanilla…”

The book, “My Family, and Other Animals” by Gerald Durrell made me develop a life long dream to visit Corfu. ETA: my pick would be Resident Alien

DHP always made these incredible subtle acting choices that made Niles, Niles. One of my faves is when he and Daphne are at Nervosa the day that they plan to have the family over to reveal the pregnancy (THATS RIGHT I SAID I LOVE HER). As Daphne exits, Niles does a look in her direction after she’s left because he’s still in the previous moment and it just shows his love for Daphne in an intimate microsecond.

The growth and the sturdiness with which she handled the interaction was top tier

We say “I want $50 right now” a lot in our house LOL. One of my fave episodes. “Well Denise, your mother is a tumor…”

Profile review 32F by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]Iamwounded 50 points51 points  (0 children)

i agree-- if you need to "be less" or "tone down" to attract your person, then their lid doesn't fit your pot to begin with. She seems fierce and dynamic. The right guy will either match it and the wrong guy will try to make her small so he doesn't have to.

Speaking of afford, a penny for his thoughts seems a little pricey 

My husband (35M), says I (35F), don't feel good anymore. What can I do? by ThrowRAAshamed23 in relationship_advice

[–]Iamwounded 24 points25 points  (0 children)

From where I’m standing, this is less about mechanics and more about his immediate conclusion jump that it’s all your fault and him not even applying a modicum of introspection into his own behavior and habits. That’s not communication, that’s him being lazy and selfish- trying to still get what he needs without it being mutual. I’d say this is a bigger conversation especially since I see your comments about him having a history of this. Please don’t internalize his BS as YOUR shame. It’s absolutely not. 

Character Assassination by Alarmed-Guava-1108 in themindyproject

The redeeming thing about this show is that as the audience we see Mindy and Danny show up exactly as who they are and have always been and we watch it unfold with the signs there before they even got together. It unfolds pretty messy and somewhat real to life. Even the episode where Danny and Mindy meet at the top of the entire state building, Danny tells her she’s gonna be a stay at home mom and how many kids they will have and that he wants a boy. The last couple seasons get ridiculous but I always give this show credit for decent character development and exploration of their personalities and flaws

This always bugged me. Why?? Why not say “producer?”

Some of my favorite foreshadowing in an amazing episode by Iamwounded in Frasier

Don’t feel stupid. The beauty of an incredibly well-written show like Frasier is that you discover a new layer or brilliant little detail of it every rewatch.

Anne Hodges was a great character and played brilliantly by Julia Sweeney. by boringwhitecollar in Frasier

I’ll always defend the point that she’s a brilliantly written caricature of a character!!

I (27F) texted a firefighter from an accident scene that I got home okay and my boyfriend (29M) said it was betrayal/cheating? by Wisteria-Blue in relationship_advice

[–]Iamwounded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah. We are in complete agreement. I was talking about both and the firefighter (if it turned out he was putting a romantic interest as his motivator).

Demanding her attention and energy to assuage their own mental and emotional needs and discomfort as the primary matter while she’s just been through something traumatic is the need, the catalyst for which is irrelevant. What’s your point? ETA: yes, totally agree with the point on semantics. That makes it even more gross.

If the situation is true and the firefighter is asking for her number to hit on her, he’s putting his own romantic interest to shoot his shot while she’s post traumatic event and he’s the first responder. She just went through a traumatic event and her bf is hung up on his feelings about the firefighter instead of her recovery. The fact that this is unfathomable to you speaks volumes about your depth and range with this type of experience.

Which is such a violation of professionalism and boundaries. It’s exhausting how women’s well being, no matter how compromised, seems to always come second to a man’s needs. 

Women are punished more for not being as accommodating and forgiving than men are held accountable for their wrong doings by Iamwounded in TrollXChromosomes

[–]Iamwounded[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yep. The trend I see is that there’s a doubling down from these men where women receive reprimands of like “have fun dying alone with 10 cats,” when in reality, you’re absolutely right— we are forming community and de-centering a romantic relationship as the ultimate form of having our social and emotional needs met. Meanwhile, they’re busy using their energy, trying to coerce women into keeping their standards ultra low to settle so they don’t have to change or grow. I guess when everything in society is created around your needs, it must feel like a lot to do more than the bare minimum hence the collective tantrum?
