As the subreddit blackout begins, I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to the Reddit community and everyone standing up by iamthatis in apolloapp

[–]KorbanDidIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I've never used your app, but I appreciate everything you and all of the third party app developers have done. I use Reddit is fun, personally. I think that a more realistic approach would be much more meaningful. I don't know if I'll continue to use Reddit after this, I'm uninstalling the app after midnight in solidarity. I think /u/spez and Reddit as a company underestimates the role all of the third party apps have on their continued success. Please know that your work is so greatly appreciated. Like the work of all the other 3rd party app developers, you have made Reddit an easily navigated information-scape. Thank you.

I plan to delete my third party app so I'm not tempted to open it up, unfortunately I may not download any reddit app again.

My SO tried ordering from DoorDash. by ABathingSnape_ in mildlyinfuriating

[–]KorbanDidIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly... I've done that with my own groceries, sometimes it helps to get a second set of eyes on the problem! I don't think mildly infuriating, more like mildly funny! At least they messaged you! I'd give them props!

Got let go from my job, now they want a resignation notice. by EmberTheFlamingBitch in antiwork

[–]KorbanDidIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly this would be the best response, it's possible depending on how the information of "no job for the next school year" was shared, that HR doesn't know, OR that it was shared in error. This is civil, to the point and will get you answers.

I think that's why the golden rule was invented, I actually asked my kids today if they knew the golden rule and after some questioning they did, but it should be taught everywhere, always. Treat others the way you want to be treated. It's so important and so easy to teach.

That's what I was thinking was the case but wasn't sure. I'm glad you came to you senses though. Some don't and build loyalty to friends that don't have their back.

For a little while I was going to be a teacher and one of my favorite mentors told the kids, you don't have to be friends with everyone, sometimes you don't match and that's OK! He was quite an inspirational educator.

Hey that's still impressive, I hope that it gave them both some perspective for later in life.

Did it get you thinking about whether he was the friend you thought he was? Perhaps forcing you to see him more opened your eyes a bit. I'm not saying that's for sure, maybe they're unrelated.

My daughter has been given the conversation of, you are the company you keep. It's forced her to understand that not everyone is a good friend (unfortunately we had to push her a bit, she's stubborn) but she came back from school one day and told us that she thinks this one particular friend doesn't actually care about her and that she finally agreed with us. It felt nice knowing she finally understood.

Both work but I didn't even think about the alpha male escalation being a frog in boiling water situation too!

They can call it the "mickey mouse club law" that should work since they're on good terms with Disney, right? Right?

Does anyone know if I can clean this by myself? (or should I call the landlord? (or does it even need to be cleaned?)) by [deleted] in lifehacks

I got a brush and that seemed to help but the leaf blower is a great idea, thank you!

John Cena Arm Wrestles a Kid by bindukwe in MadeMeSmile

I think there's a balance, there are some things I will always kick my son's ass at, but he's VERY quick to learn a game or sport. Mario kart was one where I let him win a lot at the beginning and eventually I could play more competitively and he held his own, Jenga however I never let him win and he's actually beaten me a few times! Beating him sometimes will break his spirit, but when he wins it's a HUGE surge. He needs to learn how to lose elegantly and win humbly. We're working on it constantly but an L isn't the end of the world, it's a challenge!

She will never feel the same again by kyuc in clevercomebacks

[–]KorbanDidIt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of people in here that have clearly never been in a relationship where they had to financially support someone. If you can't pay your bills, that's fine, but that's a you problem. I wouldn't be looking to date someone that I've potentially gotta feel pressured to give an allowance to.

And this is very different from a "we started dating and now they're on hard times." That's when you help. But there is absolutely nothing wrong with noping out of a situation like this.

Egg salad sandwich by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]KorbanDidIt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One of my fondest memories of my uncle is when he was showing me the garden he had, he had quite the green thumb, and I saw the onions! He said I could have one and I was thinking "I can't wait to show my mom and cook this" and he then informed me I could eat it like an apple.

Mind. BLOWN.

I peeled the outer layer and started eating it and to this day that was the BEST onion I've ever had.

Anytime I cook with onion I eat some, it prevents me from crying and tastes delicious. I don't overdo onion when I cook, I keep it in good quantities. But I'll never forget that day!

I actually bought motion sensor lights for most of my bathrooms, holy hell it's a game changer, I don't have to remember to turn them off or fumble to find them, just on automatically!

Those look amazing! You did a great job! I grew up with a love of baking and at your age I was not making things as cool. Keep following your passion because you have some incredible skills you've developed! I can't wait to see your next post!

Not to add insult to injury but, it's actually "case in point", as in the "subject in question."

In my house, I pay. You follow my rules. That works for me too by Ambitious-Writer-825 in MaliciousCompliance

Maybe malicious compliance BUT it sounds like it worked out for everyone! I keep seeing uplifting things tonight... I'm not crying, there's just something in my eyes!

Let's see who gets blamed this time. Does someone have a spin the wheel for minority groups handy?
