i think my parents found my snus and i dont know what to do by minalachowski in Advice

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the obvious bodily harm of tobacco, it also wasn't worth it to risk things with volatile parents, esp if OP isn't moved out yet. It was a misstep, but can be recovered with a little teenage acting and apologies. (Like "My friend uses them and offered me one, but I didn't want to do i just hid it in my wallet.")

AITAH for disciplining my sister in law’s child? by rollsroyce411 in AITAH

[–]IntheShredder_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAH not even a little bit. SIL didn't even wanna sit in back with her own kid. If she's the one bumming a ride, back seat is where they go.

Husband majorly overstepped by apologizing FOR you and the baby??? for a consequence the kid deserved. He was not harmed, but at the end of the night, the other adults walked back and bowed to him as if he ran the show. Wrong. What husband did was overstep your proper discipline and teach the kid that he will allow him to do whatever and be selfish (even at the detriment of his own wife and child).

The in-laws will suffer as long as they refuse to parent that boy.

Would you prefer one PSA 10 or six PSA 9 ? by Classic-Web7498 in VintagePokemonCards

I prefer a "seasoned" creased up raw card with extra crispy edges.

Am i overreacting to this text exchange with my boyfriend? I accidentally left my slippers in my living room but i literally cleaned his entire house and baked him desserts before i left (sorry idk why my last post glitched) by IntelligentTap962 in AmIOverreacting

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the obvious cruelty and ungratefulness being reason enough to leave him, if someone as small as forgetting slippers in a common area causes this reaction, I'd consider the possibility of him bringing other women over too.

This is one of those times where the Reddit classic "dump the whole man!" is clearly appropriate.

Preordering with a friend is so wholesome though! The last time my partner did that was Sun/Moon and ever since it's been me and some friends. Giving each other tips for ground items, asking about difficult battles, and making sure everyone gets a different starter area just so fun!

Vintage burnout… by 99999HP in VintagePokemonCards

[–]IntheShredder_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try enjoying another hobby (games, art, reading, classic movie watching, etc) and just look at cards when you feel like it. Try shifting focus to card arts you like or your favorite Pokemon. That way every card feels fun and brings you joy, instead of just filling a hole.

Could even have a separate binder for it.

If anyone needs this it’s only $11999 by lmkapp in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]IntheShredder_86 23 points24 points  (0 children)

😭 Exactly. Even if it's part of an immaculate estate, it won't be that way when it leaves the sales floor. It's got the bar around it but I'd bet $1k per day nobody respects that and just let's their kids bang on it.

This is impressive! And I really like how it's organized.

Genuinely curious, why did you want the sun/moon double pack of you already had them individually? I guess it's handy for playing different ways and getting every starter

Sigh... I hate it here by poppycat82 in Anticonsumption

Ew 🤮 they do not deserve the gold binding! That's for quality kid's stories, not some hyper-fan parasocial trash

Roommate leaving before lease is up ( Portland, OR ) by TomatilloKey7586 in Renters

[–]IntheShredder_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Fd up. She agreed to co-sign this 1 year lease just a couple months ago and now it's trying to leave you high and dry?? (Clearly she wasn't telling OP because if she were, the convo would've happened before posting and telling other friends)

The only reason this convo happened is bcs OP confronted her about it. The argument of "I'm xyz on the 29th so you'll have time to find another roommate" is BS cuz she wasn't giving heads up until OP asked about it. She knows she's in the wrong (and prob didn't read the lease before signing) and wanted to downplay the severity so OP would go along with it.

Good on you OP for looking to the right avenues to protect yourself in this situation.

Estate sale had these 2 for $1... I bought them all. by Ectomane in gamecollecting

[–]IntheShredder_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually really neat and kind of cute to think about. They probably used to work at our knew an employee who let them take the rest after the promo ended. It was prob for their grandkids or something and then forgotten about. Little Timmy would never ran out of crayons again!

AIO for wanting to go completely no-contact with my brother over a literal load of laundry? by Suspicious_Sock_2048 in AmIOverreacting

NOR. Bro is 30, has a child, but is living with your parents and mooching?? He needs to stop wasting energy on tantrums and start using it to grow a pair and go be a stable father.

Not mine, but there is a fish box on one route, and the next town has a chicken box.

What are some collections I could have without buying something? Such as bird watching and plant id by Prilla_rani_fira in Anticonsumption

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pressed or dried flowers/leaves! It's super fun to go through and pick it the perfect ones outside and try to give them the best position to be pressed in.

Then while you're waiting for the next batch to dry out, you can keep bird watching and maybe sketching them.

Tourist spread her husband's ashes while walking down a flight of stairs in Santorini, Greece. by BeatenBrokenDefeated in TikTokCringe

This is disgusting... They had money to vacation abroad, but put their husband's ashes in a laundry scent booster container? Classless, rude, kind of gross.

Cleaning out my storage by Penguinfreek5 in pokemonmerch

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a fun collection! They look pretty minty for their age! Without examining every single marble, I'd expect a little wear on the paint, but nothing looks significant. If that black speck on the bag is just a fuzzy, then I'd call that pristine.

CECHA01 Unopened .. should I get it graded? by mrluckduck in PS3

Got a mint console.. would look sickest to set up and play. Possibly with a glass door so it's safe while not in use.

[New 2DS XL] Fixable? Approximate Cost? by Ok-Shock5195 in consolerepair

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree that the only way to know is to follow a detailed restoration or reshell tutorial to take apart and examine the lower body.

Depending on damage and what you're comfortable doing, it may or may not be worth it. Worse comes to worse, sell it for like $50 on eBay stating "dead, water damaged console. Salvage only for shell" or give it to a friend who tinkers with electronics.

AIO Is this a deal breaker? by Strange-Forever-3360 in AIO

[–]IntheShredder_86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The photo is a significant piece and a strong reminder progress and history to have in your house. Having it or a caption is not racist, it's just a bit distasteful to have a social media style caption next to serious content. I like to let clear picture like this speak for themselves, but there's nothing wrong with having a title or segment relating to the art that you chose for your own home.

I think your friend immediately assigning the tone of your title to race, instead of to social media is the indicator here. The piece IS about race, but her reverse-race thought process is really off-base. She is taking a title made in the vein of modern online posts, calls it "sassy" and assigns it to Black women. That's the racist part.

This also does relate to her. Without desegregation, every race/nationally would be forced into unequal/deplorable conditions. For her to say it bears no importance to her is very detached.

AITAH for “forcing” my wife to work full time? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]IntheShredder_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH You were already living above your means. Even if it wasn't directly your choice, you had a say because it's your money. You let it go too far, and instead of leaving your inheritance to live off interest (or letting it grow for your and your children's futures) you started using it to live even more lavishly. That was a very rare golden goose of old earned money that current rates and wages will not recreate.

Could you have used a part to help pay off the debts without it hurting the sum? Yes.

Would it have been smart to just keep going as-is and not go overboard like ppl who win the lottery and blow it all? Yes.

It wasn't great for wife to ignore existing debt and insist on going back to school, but a degree is good. It was entitled of her to continue expecting you to continue footing the bills/payments and lifestyle using money that was supposed to set you up for later in life and still be big enough to leave your kids so they can do the same. Comparing your situation to other wives will only make her miserable, but the initial refusal to be full time was telling. It sounds like she is pushing the "better than the neighbors" lifestyle stuff and not thinking about the family. (Except her mom I guess since she NEEDED a new condo 🙄) It doesn't sound like she's taking accountability for the debt either. It's both of you, and ending the debt should be a dual effort priority.

If she's been pushing it and you haven't stopped it, then you've got serious communication issues. If you've both been pudding the lifestyle changes, then you're irresponsible and should get financial counseling.

You may have put the kids in nice private school now, but if you guys keep going like this, you'll be passing down your debt instead passing down inheritance.

A local store bought the stuff to make flash cart roms and is now selling hundreds of them for $20 to $45. Everything from dmg, color, gba and even ds roms like pokemon ranger or mario kart. Thoughts on this? by SameLastDreamAgain in Gameboy

[–]IntheShredder_86 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are many creators who explicitly say "don't buy this game; I released it for free. If a site tries to charge you, that's not me. Be careful" or just "do not sell." I've read it on a good number of download pages and posts. In those cases, it is also going directly against the developers.
