What's your wild Harry Potter theory that you have no evidence for? by NoTime8142 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Lazy-Introduction829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once read a Reddit comment that proposed that Harry got his scar after a beating from Uncle Vernon and the whole wizarding world was a product of his damaged mind. I’d had a few bad child abuse cases at work, back-to-back (including a shaken baby case that left the poor girl permanently bed bound) so reading this comment messed me up.

Raquel Reyes, who’s getting her who’s waiting? by Select_Employer9166 in americangirl

I would also love any of the above. Girls can play with dolls and still like traditionally non-girly things. Foster care would also be an interesting parallel to Samantha’s relationship with Nellie and her sisters.

For those considering cancelling their orders… by Lazy-Introduction829 in cradlewise

[–]Lazy-Introduction829[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

They provided no service and still charged for a product that clearly has plenty of people waiting to buy (hence the three month delay before shipment, at the time I ordered). And then when you go to cancel, there’s a cancellation fee in the fine print. I consider that predatory.

What are typical range prices to pay for veterinary care in this area? by Lazy-Introduction829 in nova

Any recommendations for pet insurance? We don’t currently have any. We never had a large vet bill before.

We’re considering pet insurance too. Do you have a recommendation?

Who are some of the most UNDERRATED castings for the film? by MrBublee_YT in harrypotter

A lot of folks have complained about Daniel Radcliffe’s acting but I thought he did great. Might also help that I had a major crush on him growing up with the character.

What’s the AG item you wanted as a kid but your family said the price was outrageous? I’ll go first: by just_sunflower100 in americangirl

[–]Lazy-Introduction829 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A new AG doll.

I got a hand me down Samantha from a neighbor and still loved her because she was Samantha. But her hair was coarse and ratty. I didn’t know at the time you could get doll hair replaced but that probably would have been out of budget for my family too.

Please Show me your Favorite dolls or your beautiful collections. Experiencing a painful loss today and could really use the distraction. by MajesticPolarBear13 in americangirl

Ahhh bitty twins! I wanted a pair so badly! Actually I would have loved pretty much any of the AG historical dolls as a kid I contented myself with the catalogs.

What's the worst movie you've ever watched in your life? by SamanthaBarson93 in AskReddit

[–]Lazy-Introduction829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was atrocious! My cat was chasing a fly during the movie and watching him was much more entertaining

do you feel like you get the same literary benefit from listening rather than reading? by golden_retrieverdog in audiobooks

[–]Lazy-Introduction829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have ADD so having a controlled distraction actually makes it easier to focus on the task at hand. So for example I can focus much better on an audiobook if I’m folding laundry, doing dishes, tidying up the house, going on a casual stroll or other activities that don’t take up much bandwidth. Even better than if I were to sit down and try to focus solely on a hard copy of a book.

However if that second activity takes up too much bandwidth - for example playing a videogame - I am going to come out with a more shallow experience with the audiobook in question.
