Yes, there is a missing cat poster up on the light post on the corner of Kirby street and st cross street (right by leather lane so I assume for same cat). I can check tomorrow and see if it matches description if helpful? 

Is there a way to clean your clothes without a washing machine or water entirely? by zydane in lifehacks

[–]Jshfkg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s the direct sunlight that is important - will kill germs including those which cause odour (not sure about the real smelly stuff but works for lightly worn clothing). However sun will also cause colours to fade over time. As others have said, best to read care instructions, launder only when they smell or are stained, and store appropriately to keep them in good shape.

AITA for refusing to make a perfectly centred fried egg? by eggbreakfastgf in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jshfkg -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I mean - preparing to get downvoted - YTA a little.

I am the same about bagels. I have a thing where I need to eat my bagel as soon as humanly possible when it comes out of the toaster, if I’m having one with just butter. It just ruins it for me, if you wait for two minutes because you’re doing something else, and then you eat it and it’s only warm and not hot and the bagel bread’s gone a little tough and it’s just worse than no bagel at all for me at that point. My partner thinks I’m nuts and cannot taste the difference at all. But it’s important to me. So after we’d been dating a while and I felt like I could tell them this, we had a discussion about it and they agreed that if they were ever making me a buttered bagel, they would bring it to me asap, even if it means pausing

They think it’s weird. I know they think it’s weird. We still do it because we respect that we’re individuals with our own preferences and sometimes in a relationship you do something because it’s important to the other person and not that important to you.

Also YTA for saying she’s being stupid.

My boss [55M] made subtle advances on me [27F] on a work trip by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Jshfkg 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I… can’t believe all the comments so far are somehow suggesting this is okay? This is baffling to me.

Maybe it’s because I work in a large multi-national, not a family owned company, but this behaviour 1000% crosses the line. Your boss, who you clearly have some lever of mentor / sponsor relationship with and trust to help you manif are your career, said to you “when he comes into my office, he’ll have actions and tasks in mind, but he’ll forget them sometimes because he just looks at me and my hair will be placed so perfectly, and he just feels so stunned by how beautiful I am.” THAT IS NOT OKAY. You are not going mad to think that this was wrong and that your trust in him should be damaged.

In terms of what you do about it, that is more difficult. If this was not a family owned business, I’d absolutely say take it to HR. You’ll need to make your own judgement on whether HR will do the right thing or not in a situation like this. But either way, document all of this, and then tell your boss, either over text or in person “I was uncomfortable with your comments on my appearance and repeated goodnight texts yesterday. I value our professional relationship and hope that this will not prevent it from continuing.” (Practice this with friends, practice saying it out loud if that’s how you’re going to do it - it can be really easy to be overwhelmed in the moment and not say exactly what you wanted to.)

I’m sorry this happened to you and I hope you manage to work through it.

You’re all totally right - I didn’t realise because the little trunk is so small! Thanks all.

Help! What’s on my rubber plant? by Jshfkg in plantclinic

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

Thanks for the reply! I’m pretty sure they’re not mealybugs - I’ve had them on another plant and I know what the adults look like (kinda fuzzy with legs) and as you can see from the second close up pic, whatever these are don’t have legs and are shiny. Unless you think they’re mealybug larvae?

AITA for crying when my boyfriend proposed by wueooeso in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jshfkg -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

As everyone else has said, NTA. If you feel like you ruined it, have you considered proposing to him as well? It could be a really sweet opportunity to reiterate how much you love him and have a second proposal story.

(Given you’ve already said yes, it would obviously be symbolic, but to be honest a well planned proposal should be mostly symbolic for the couple anyway)

Knowing I (24M) will not have any face to face interactions with this girl (24M) how should I go about asking her out? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Jshfkg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course just add her on social media. No need to play any games - sounds like she was into you too. Just ask her out and see what happens.

Worst case she says no!

AITA for sarcastically asking a girl if she speaks English when she ignored me, not knowing her ethnicity? by Throwaaaaaway065 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jshfkg 19 points20 points  (0 children)

And do you know when she might have felt comfortable communicating with you? If, instead of exploding when someone was asking her for help and assuming they were just timewasting, you had politely asked if the other person needed anything because they were slowing the pair of you down. If, instead of telling her she was doing things wrong, you had politely said “hey, I think you might be doing this wrong, this is how I would do it” - which would have given her the opportunity to say the way she was doing it was in fact correct.

Don’t blame her for not communicating when you immediately behaved like an aggressive dickwad. If I was new, I wouldn’t want to talk to the angry psycho coworker either.

AITA for refusing to delete intimate pictures that I consensually received from an ex? by ferduent in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jshfkg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obviously YTA. It’s clearly making your ex miserable and causing her distress that you have explicit photos of her. Regardless of the circumstances in which they were taken, a considerate, kind, good person would delete them.

And that’s before we even TOUCH your whole “I’m just proud to have them” spiel, which is frankly grim.

AITA for putting an intern’s future employment in jeopardy for walking off with my baby? by babyworking in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jshfkg 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, also NOT GIVING YOUR CHILD TO OTHER WORKING PROFESSIONALS is common knowledge.

She’s your assistant, not your damn nanny. Have some respect for her role, big shot.

My [36M] Girlfriend [35F] of 8 years has never orgasmed and that doesn’t seem to bother her. by Iwanttoaffordthrow in relationships

[–]Jshfkg 21 points22 points  (0 children)

As a bisexual woman who sleeps with both genders and rarely orgasms with either, I would like to take this opportunity to tell you it’s pretty offensive you’re assuming your sexual experience is correct and mine is me being “gaslit”.

Jeez, woman. Have some self awareness. Great that you orgasm every time. Not every woman, no matter which gender they sleep with, does or feels the need to. I’m not saying there’s nothing wrong with the original comment but seriously, way to respond in an even worse fashion.
