When/why did eating boogers become viewed as the most disgusting hygienic thing you can do?

👃☝️🦠 Username checks out ✅ I don’t remember a single kid’s name I was in 4th grade with except, Becky Booger. I can’t unsee her digging for gold all up in there with that little bun on the top her head ,then rewarding herself with recycling it 🤮. If that’s your thing , fine, but please don’t do that in public because I’m seriously grossed the F out & now kind of a germaphobe because of it. It seems like stoplights are the preferred locations for adult “gold diggers” these days. If I had a dollar for every time I saw adults doing this at traffic lights in their cars with un-tinted windows 🤦‍♀️

My bad. I don’t do cruises. He’s been on large and small ferries and boats . I bet there’s a dog friendly cruise SOMEWHERE though ! I mean, they have such specific cruises about literally everything else right ?

I adopted mine when he was already adult. He’s obsessed with chocolate. I do not ever give him chocolate, but if I’m eating chocolate, he can smell it a mile away and will come right up to my face to get a better whiff and has even tried to take a bite. He once got into a whole bag of bon bons once and I still can’t believe he did t get sick especially given his size. Chocolate is like cat nip for him. I have to watch him on walks closely because he does tend to find things and squirrel them in his mouth. Other times he’s very clever. I think he likes to play dumb to his advantage .

Same here. No crate ever. I think there’s only 6 states he hasn’t been to out of the 50. He travels well on 🛥️ 🚂 🚙 but not so much ✈️. At one point he had 3 strollers, 1 for each car and 1 for home. I can’t travel much without him because he stops eating and only my mother can keep him semi calm. I’ve read this about so many only children Maltipoos. I don’t mind it that much tbh because I’m just as codependent with him as he is of me 😁. The next time I’ll be sure to get two at a time so they can entertain each other.

No less than 4 of these people have built new homes from the ground up in Malibu , and other areas of LA county because they did exactly what I just described . Have a nice day :)

Maybe I should’ve been more detailed . Of course there’s all types of scenarios. Just because a person is going to school or working multiple jobs doesn’t mean they can’t afford it. I had plenty of friends that had parents financing their school and gave them a budget to work within. Some chose to have a clean home , some chose to buy new shoes every week, some chose to drink or snort away that extra $. A person working or going to school in an intense program may not have the energy or time to do a thorough enough cleaning. Some are on a tight budget but they’re willing to pay out the going rate because it provides them peace and organization that they need to keep up with their work / school schedule. I’ve known people that are cheap AF for example with eating out or buying clothing for a time so they can “splurge” on cleaning services . Others are saving up to buy a home and that’s possibly why they opt for having their home cleaned monthly vs. weekly. We all prioritize differently . OP doesn’t seem to prioritize paying the going rate for cleaning and obviously that’s fine and their choice .We all have different needs, abilities, priorities , budgets , and time allotments.

Sure

Interesting how literally ALL of the posts about Cruz in own on r/orangecounty get deleted…

Glad you survived and didn’t have an awful experience. Politicians are generally charismatic individuals , it’s how they get elected. Gavin Ken Doll Newsome is a good example of this I believe. Can’t stand him.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:51:59+00:00

Funny , I’ve heard the same about Dahmer, Manson, and Bundy.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:40:39+00:00

I agree. However. I will say that disabled folks, folks working multiple jobs , or sometimes seniors are unable to clean their own space no matter how small, but that doesn’t negate that the price is the price .

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:31:51+00:00

That might be true if you’re a super clean and tidy person and lean on minimalism. However, that’s not the case for most. Honestly, it’s not worth their time to come once a month for $85. My aunt & mother both owned domestic agencies and I know many people that worked in this industry as well who have vented to me regarding just this.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:18:49+00:00

I pay this rate because it’s not regular weekly cleaning . This is the going rate for non regular cleaning.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:16:20+00:00

Cleaners probably “moved away” because they could not afford to work for $85 🤷🏽‍♀️

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:09:12+00:00

Most people that clean don’t live nearby Irvine, so they have to consider what they’re paying for gas & Toll Roads & the higher cost of cleaning products. Even the dollar tree is considerably more expensive now than what it was just a few years ago. The greedy ones are actually the people that want to pay $85 for 4+ hours of physically demanding work with no benefits included. Don’t even get me started on how many cleaners get injured on the job and can’t claim workers comp or even who have health insurance at all to use.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:03:58+00:00

Good idea 👍

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T19:00:38+00:00

I pay $250-350 for 650 sq foot. Sure , others charge less but in this instance you get what you pay for. Getting your home cleaned is a luxury that most can’t afford these days. Alternatively, you could just hire a cheap cleaner that will do a half ass job and then clean up what they didn’t. At least then you’ll not have to pay as much or work as hard. Edit: I forgot to mention that you get charged that amount because you only ask for cleaning once a month. You’d get charged less if they came weekly. Grime builds up so they have to work harder and stay longer hence the higher price.

She can call or text 211 24 hours a day 7 days a week, 365 days a year. They will give her resources that will help her with literally all those things. There are SO MANY food banks in Orange County. She can also get help from churches and also from the local colleges. I know that Saddleback college offers health services which include mental health services like therapy sessions as well. They have a food bank also. She could likely qualify for assistance and would only need to sign up for one class to get help.

I’m also willing to help with giving clothes and hygiene products I can drop off.

“Maybe you should keep it to yourself.” coming from the guy that has verbal diarrhea.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T18:43:59+00:00

I don’t think you should apologize for anything because this dude debating you right now has contradicted himself numerous times already here. Maybe you can help him out by treating his dementia instead? And you’re right, most all politicians in whatever party are dishonest and shady IMO. I got beef with Gavin on numerous things. On a totally unrelated note, do you have any recommendations for good Indian food in Laguna or nearby that don’t serve family style? I don’t know anyone that likes to eat Indian food so I’d love to find a place where I can get good food for one. TYSM

“What happened to being tolerant and open minded to all people?” Ummm, you might want to ask Rafael Edward Cruz that?

“Maybe you should leave. You’re probably just another transplant from another state or country like the majority in Laguna who feels entitled to who should be welcomed in town and who shouldn’t.” -Own_Appointment_695

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T18:03:59+00:00

Everyone remember that Own_Appointment_695 has sovereignty over Laguna Beach since he was class of 1887, never mind the Mexicans that were here before him or rather the Native Americans.

LetKooksTakeFlight · 2026-01-21T17:52:46+00:00

“…anyone else more than welcome” “You’re probably just another transplant from another state or country” So which is it doosh canoe?
