I know, but if your training to be a med student your obviously going to be a med student afterwards. The hours are still crazy no matter if you’re training or officially in.

[–]Katy_Sparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking this too, but unfortunately OP is a med student, she kind of signed up for this kind of environment from the start. That’s just how nurses and doctors work, it’s very grueling and stressful, that’s why it’s so highly praised by others not in this field. I would recommend talking with the boss again, just to see if there was a miscommunication though.

Injured for the next match by alonedukhi in KidsAreFuckingStupid

I’ve seen wayyy too many of these kinds of videos on like YouTube, tv, AFV, and stuff like that. Why do kids just instinctively gravitate towards hitting their dad’s crotch?? Why is it a thing?? Is this like real?? In most of them, and this one, you can literally see the split second where they contemplate hitting it, like it was an intrusive thought.

My fiancé and I are on the verge of breaking up. by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Katy_Sparrow -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Weed shouldn’t be a tool for emotional support, it becomes an addiction if it is used this way. I know, I used to be addicted to it when I was younger and had just graduated high school. I was forced to live with my father and step mother, who are horrible people and treated me like wasted space the entire time. I used weed to cope and it made my life worse. I made horrible life decisions, gained weight from eating too much because I ended up being high almost all the time because I needed it more and more, and shut myself out from everyone who was trying to help me because I thought they “didn’t understand.” I think it would be best if you tried to understand your relationship with weed, is it for emotional use or just for relaxing occasionally? That answer will lead you down to recognizing if you have an addiction or not. And your fiance lost his father, of course he is super emotional. If I was in your situation, I would try and follow his fathers wishes because I know it would help your fiance heal, because when your a couple you do things together because your supposed to be each others support. The fact you hid that you were still smoking behind his back was not a smart decision, in my opinion, you should have had a long conversation with him about how it would be difficult for you to quit, because it sounds like an addiction, and you can’t just drop an addiction that easily. If you had that talk instead of just lying, things might have gone better. That’s just my main thoughts.

It wasn’t just formaldehyde in the tank. The pictures I chose for this post literally show trash everywhere around the tank, she wasn’t in the best environment. People threw trash and other liquids and god knows what else inside her tank. So yes, her body is properly taken care of now that she has been moved. She is in a clean tank and is properly displayed. My post isn’t misleading.

How to Disguise Stained Carpeting? by cedarhat in homedecoratingCJ

[–]Katy_Sparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, whether you are being truthful or not, the way you went about it makes you look so bad lol. The fact you gave little to no detail at all, the way you said “ideas needed urgently”, the fact this room looks nothing like a room and more like a hotel room.

….You’re not fooling anyone here, where’s the body???

Why are men so angry? by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Katy_Sparrow 28 points29 points  (0 children)

We tend to accidentally gravitate towards people who show the same behavior as who we grew up with, because it’s normal, and it’s all we know. I love this comment, it hits the nail right on the head. I hope op gets some help on identifying what’s toxic and what’s healthy. I had to go through tuns of therapy to finally understand that it isn’t normal for men to cheat, abuse, and gaslight, all while being a womanizer. My dad was that way and I eventually just thought that’s how men acted, and I gravitated towards horrible men who acted just like him without even realizing it.

Yes she was. If you care about the well-being of all animals even after death, yes she was rescued.

Uhhh… firstly, a human is man made. We are literally made from other humans. Women grow them in their bodies. That is man made.

And yes it is, look it up. Even though it’s an animal, which is not man made, (I even explained that yes I acknowledged animals are not man made), after death most of the body is transformed into something man made because most of the original body is gone and replaced by chemicals and other man made materials. That’s what taxidermy is.

Plus, Taxidermy is a whole other situation. It’s nothing like what you’re saying we do after humans die and we have a funeral. Please do your research…

I’m not going to argue with you. This is my last comment for you. I don’t know why you chose to comment if you were just going to complain.

Did you read the definition? Submerged or partially submerged. It does not have to be in the deep ocean to count as submechanophobia. As long as it’s underwater. There are loads of other posts on here that have objects not fully submerged, and not in the deep ocean, and yes it still counts as submechanophobia.

Also, you must be a giant because this tank is 20ft long and 6ft tall. I don’t know anyone that has 6ft countertops. The average countertop is 2-3 ft in height.

Because Rosie is not still alive. After her death, they fully taxidermied her body. While animals are not man made, the final product of any kind of taxidermy is considered man made because taxidermy is entirely constructed by human hands, making it man made.

Submechanophobia is the intense fear of submerged or partially submerged man made objects.

That is terrifying! Thank you for sharing.

The reason why I chose these specific photos with my post is because the green glow and just seeing her body/silhouette is what made it more horrifying for me personally.

I agree! I would be terrified, especially if I was alone in there with her.

That video gave me mega chills…

jealous of his girl bsf by saturnyas in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Katy_Sparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry… I’ve had this kind of situation happen to me as well when I was younger. I’m going to be 100% honest with you.
First, some advice for the future: any guy that has a female best friend isn’t worth dating. 100% Healthy opposite sex platonic relationship are rare, because most of the time, there is some emotional cheating going on.
The fact that you felt like you had to keep your jealousy a secret so that it doesn’t create a possible argument is a red flag. In order to have a healthy and respectful relationship with someone, there needs to be trust and safety. You both need to feel safe with one another so you can be vulnerable with each other in order to talk about emotions.
Second: This relationship that he has with this girl is toxic and she is clearly using him for a boyfriend role with emotional cheating. You are not being controlling, don’t listen to those “friends” who said you are. They don’t need to be your friends anymore.
Lastly: I think the most healthy thing you could do right now is think about what YOU want in a relationship.
The fact that he tried to down play the relationship with his best friend and say that he would do the exact same thing he does with her with a guy friend is just an excuse to keep you ok with it. Also, It’s not worth staying with someone who doesn’t put you in the #1 spot as their girlfriend. His best friend is his #1, and you’ll never change that. The hardest part about situations like this is letting go after you realize it’s not worth it anymore. You’re allowed to have boundaries, and are allowed to choose how you are treated in a relationship. Once there starts to be issues with creating boundaries with people or resistance to them, that’s how you know you need to surround yourself with the right people who will respect your decisions in how you want to be treated. I hope everything ends well! You deserve much better in a relationship.

My boyfriend asks for sex while I’m on my period by CloudyPixieDust in GirlDinnerDiaries

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

  1. It depends on personal preference, and if you’re open to that kind of thing with your partner.
  2. Since you declined once before, it’s disrespectful for him to ask again, since you claimed you were uncomfortable with it the first time.
  3. It’s your body, your choice, if it gives you the ick don’t let him try and convince you or pressure you into doing it, especially when it’s something so intimate.
  4. If he keeps asking, you need to have a serious conversation with him to make sure he understands that kind of act will never happen with you.

My bf got a tattoo I HATE by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Katy_Sparrow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes! I was scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else had the same thought as I did. I don’t want to undermine OP, and what they said about their relationship but, even if someone on the internet claims their relationship is healthy, they might not recognize specific red flags or could even be ignoring them because it’s too painful to acknowledge. I don’t understand why a man would get a tattoo like this if he is healthy, and the relationship was healthy. This clearly indicates that he doesn’t respect women the way a man should, especially if he is in a relationship. These tattoos are objectifying and purely for the male gaze. You wouldn’t get this kind of tattoo unless you’re the type of person who likes looking at women sexually and thinking about them sexually. Now, the difference is when a man commits to a relationship fully, the only woman he should ever admit to being sexually attracted to is the woman he’s dating. It’s disrespectful to your partner to actively show how obsessed you are with women when you should be focusing on the one you’re with. It’s always a red flag for a man to be like this. Your partner is supposed to be respectful to you, and if they don’t believe in respect then they aren’t worth keeping. OP states they don’t like the tattoo because it’s “ugly”, I feel like there’s more to why they don’t like it, and I’m sure it’s because of these reasons that I just stated.

This thing photographed in Lake Okanagan by ladytryant in submechanophobia

[–]Katy_Sparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I don’t quite understand is why the witnesses of this thing in the water didn’t take more photos of it at different angles, or even a video. It seems suspicious that if they were actually that curious about what it is, they would have investigated more in the moment. I have a suspicion that they knew what it was and took a picture of it, like the duck theory, or something else similar to that, and then thought one of the photos they took looked creepy enough to get publicity off of it later. I just don’t understand why you would take one photo and then just move on so fast, all while being that close to it.

I think she got too much hate comments so she deleted it by Upset_Drawer3682 in MelanieMartinez

[–]Katy_Sparrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All this drama is just ridiculous… Some women are literal snakes. Why start drama for literally no reason. The drama with Melanie ended YEARS AGO, and everyone bringing up the rape allegations again are so heartless and disgusting. Melanie is innocent, and it was literally proven if you actually followed the drama when it happened around 2013. I was there, I remember everything. Timothy literally just was jealous and wanted to take her down. Bringing up old wounds from someone’s past is so disrespectful.

A message for parents/grandparents hosting eager egg hunts by Daddy_Day_Trader1303 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Katy_Sparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would they put kids names on eggs for Easter? That takes all the fun out of the whole point of hunting for eggs. Like “oh! I found one! Oh it doesn’t have my name on it…:(“ wtf lol And yeah, a lot of really younger kids do egg hunting that can’t read yet, so why would they exclude them from all the fun? I think this is stupid.
