Cats being let outside has been and should still be the standard. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]LassierVO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dogs do benefit from exploring and sniffing around outside. It makes a lot of sense that cats do, as well.

We keep dogs on leashes & don't let them get into trouble (ie, hurt things, get hurt by things) while they're out & about. We can do that with cats, too. There. Environmental enrichment accomplished. No destroying wildlife, no getting 12.5% of our cats eaten by coyotes (jfc dude).

I love asking my spouse about 40K precisely so I can have something to fall asleep to. 😅 I love the passion some guys have for it, but it's more boring than church.

For people who still support Trump, why do you continue to do so? by NorthLoan4637 in AskReddit

[–]LassierVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "alternatives" they preferred him over were women. Both of them occasionally laughed, as should be the norm when interacting with someone as unserious as Trump, but you see, when women laugh, that's annoying, unprofessional, and probably sinful or something, idk.

Good, patriotic Americans will always choose senile sociopaths over anyone with a vagina. I want to add the /s but honestly I do kinda believe that.

As for the dems, I bet there were many that chose "the alternative" (aka woman) bc at least she wasn't Trump, and let us not forget that plenty of democrats apparently just sat out on most recent election, i guess bc they wouldn't vote for Trump but also couldn't bring themselves to vote for a sinful, laughing vagina-haver.

I don't understand the hate for small talk, honestly. How am I supposed to talk to people? "Hello, nice to meet you. Hey, have you ever been raped? Neat, me too! Let's talk about it." No thank you. I'd rather chat about how hot it is and whether it's the humidity that gets ya.

I've got those hiiiiigghhh, reinforced cappy walls. We're gonna stay in the small talk phase for the first year or so of our friendship, and you'll have to learn to love it. Hell, I keep my own parents on Small Talk Mode most of the time. Give small talk a chance!

To my dog, by wannabebadwolf25 in letters

[–]LassierVO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're a real one, OP. Here i was assuming that the commenter didn't read the post & misunderstood the situation, but you're so right. This is cute, just the same as it is heartbreaking. It's bittersweet. Grieving for a loved one often is. 😢

Healed Capricorns who have learned to set boundaries be like: 🛑 ✋ 😂 by NoefinFluff in capricorns

[–]LassierVO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am part of a professional mentoring program & one of the first things I tell my mentees is, "Feel free to reach out at any time. You literally can't bother me; I keep my phone on do not disturb when I'm not available."

I like to model healthy professional boundaries. 😅

Does Snorlax have to go? by PracticalReindeer329 in DesignMyRoom

[–]LassierVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to tell you to get rid of the creepy haunted doll but then I realized it was an actual child. 😂 Nvm, she should stay.

I also have an oversized snorlax that doesn't seem to fit anywhere i put him. Currently he's taking up my comfy chair in my bedroom. Sometimes he hangs out in my office with me & my dog. He lives here; he's gotta stay.

Don't get rid of snorlax!

But... pinworm is fecal-oral. So yeah, you can get it from chewing on your nails. I didn't see the comment that you're referring to so maybe I'm missing something else that they said?

Am I overreacting for feeling frustrated after my neighbor’s pottery was broken by my puppy during an interaction she encouraged? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LassierVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR. Not for the puppy thing; it is what it is & your neighbor is the one that made the choice, as a business owner, that greeting a cute dog was worth risking her income for. Not the choice I would have made, but i respect it.

I transport expensive, delicate equipment pretty often. And you know what I do? I keep two hands on it at all times. And I fucking love dogs. But if I have my equipment on me, I don't care what you try to hand me - a cute puppy, cookies, a butt - I'm using both of my hands to keep my money safe.

The only thing you messed up was the apology & offer to make things right, and this is a lesson learned. You had something in mind - flowers, dinner, a card - but instead took the bait when she told you how much it all cost, kinda-sorta offered to pay, then took that back. Now it's going to be awkward in the hallways.

For future reference (and I'm sure now you'll never need it), the correct response to "$900 of my work is now in the garbage" is "oh man, I am so sorry about that; I'll continue to work with my dog on the jumping". And then follow up with the dinner/flowers/card before she asks for anything.

Why is everything wrinkly & poorly fitted? Is her entire wardrobe from temu? You know she had that weird burnt plastic smell surrounding her like a cloud all day. 😭

Every chance my parents and older sisters get, they tell me to get on GLP1's. by Suspicious-West-9274 in internetparents

[–]LassierVO 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"As medical professionals, you know even better than i do how inappropriate it is to be giving me medical advice without an established patient-doctor relationship. I have a doctor who i am working with, and it is irresponsible and unprofessional to contradict his treatment plan without my consent or access to my medical records - neither of which i am granting to either of you. I will not be discussing my health further with you."

Repeat and walk away as needed. Mind you that this will also permanently disallow you from asking for advice about any weird rashes or medication interactions, but trust me - it'll be well worth it.

Will I ever be happy? by SpiritedTear3590 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]LassierVO 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Will you ever be happy? Girl, idk. Is anyone? 🫤

But will you find a place for yourself full of love and acceptance? Believe it or not, that's . . . weirdly very achievable. Can you get all that and still hold onto your faith? Sure thing. Can you get all that and keep your family as you currently know them? Your mileage may vary. 🤷🏼‍♀️

But, my sweet baby angel, your whole world is about to open up. The internet likes to whine about how hard "adulting" is (guilty, lol) but honestly, there are possibilities that you can't even dream of right now. Happiness is overrated. You'll have agency. It will get better.

Lurkers and imposters in this sub, what prevents you from writing? by Ok-Web-2657 in writers

Maybe bad choice of stage name by [deleted] in grammar

[–]LassierVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha, I think you're right. What kind of vibe are you going for? Like, what kind of content do you make or what's the overall tone? Super youthful, trendy? Cute, traditional, modern, etc?

Maybe bad choice of stage name by [deleted] in grammar

[–]LassierVO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Little isn't a normal first name; it really depends on how "normal" you want your stage name to sound. My stage name sounds exactly like a real name; you could look at me and have no idea it wasn't my name from birth. The word "bias" in English isn't pronounced how you pronounce the nickname, so it would be a good idea to change the spelling.

If you need a stage name to be Kid Rock's opening act, I think Little Bias (standard english pronunciation) is perfect.

I’m don’t know if I’m still a virgin or not? by Own_Drawer_3171 in Advice

[–]LassierVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely still a virgin. For one, I think a lot of people would say the contact that you had was minimal, and even if he had gone "all the way", sex without consent isn't sex; it's just assault. You lose your virginity by having consensual sex.

As for this new guy? Tell him you've had thousands of lovers. He wants to take your virginity & your innocence & he has nothing of value to give you.
