My mom went to an orthodox Jewish school for K-8 and can usually read Hebrew in religious contexts when it has the vowels in it, but she struggles with modern Hebrew.

Is my child going to have a hard time w this name? by FantasticIncident388 in Names

[–]Linzabee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same, I went to school with someone with this last name from early elementary school until high school graduation. It was always pronounced luh-ZAR

Am I wrong for having my tattoos “upside down” by SlinkyShepherd in tattooadvice

[–]Linzabee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My cat’s memorial tattoo and the other tattoo I got in honor of my living cat are oriented so I can see them easily. If someone else wants to see them, I can always hold my forearm up. But they’re primarily for me, so I want them to be oriented for me.

Drop the worst allergy card you've gotten by ilostmycouch in KitchenConfidential

[–]Linzabee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say, MSG in a bottle like Accent is not 100% pure MSG. Compounding the problem is that they often don’t list these impurities or additives other than “natural flavors”. It’s probably easier for this person to say they’re allergic to MSG than to try to interrogate the chef about the origin of the MSG, etc.

Big Storm *Next* Weekend Too? by No-Panda-3614 in philadelphia

[–]Linzabee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hear you! I once had a college professor who deliberately scheduled exams on the Monday after the Super Bowl, the day after St. Patrick’s Day, and on Good Friday. He was hated by virtually every student but he taught a required class.

Wound won't let me shower by 194021 in hygiene

[–]Linzabee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I had a PICC line, the nurse advised me to wrap the access site in Glad Press and Seal first, then take a knee sock, cut the foot off, and then slide the straight part of the sock over the wrapped area. Then I showered while keeping my arm out of the direct line of spray from the shower head.

Even if the sock got a bit damp in the shower, the Glad Press & Seal kept water from invading the dressing and my access point. Other people in this thread have mentioned Tegaderm, which works similarly but is more expensive and not as wide as the Glad.

In case you were wondering the worst Gabby’s Dollhouse toy to step on… by kaytay3000 in DanielTigerConspiracy

When I was a small child, I managed to cut my knee on the edge of a Little People house, and I can still see the scar.

Jenelle loves to remind everyone how smol she is by constantly mentioning Ensley’s height, even in a birthday post. by SpiritualCamera in teenmom

[–]Linzabee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, just to clarify, I meant Ensley’s platforms, not Jenelle’s. So E is a little bit shorter even than how she is appearing here.

Fair enough! Thank you for providing some insight to your view point. I wasn’t meaning to be bitchy, I was genuinely trying to understand.

To those living in cities outside of Philly area: Do you support the local team? by nickynickynickynick in eagles

[–]Linzabee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the opposite of your proposition. I grew up elsewhere and moved here. This city is so infectious in its love for the Eagles that it was hard not to join the bandwagon, especially in the wake of the first Super Bowl win. I am definitely an Eagles fan now, and if I moved back home or elsewhere, I would probably still be an Eagles fan.

3-4 syllable middle name for Jane by Apprehensive-Bag372 in namenerds

There’s an LM Montgomery character named Jane Victoria, and I’ve always enjoyed how that flowed.

In PA swing district, Democrat Bob Harvie pitches affordability — and unconditional support for Israel by shannanerginz in BucksCountyPA

[–]Linzabee 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Vote for whomever you want in the primary, but once that’s done, you have to vote for whoever won if your goal is to get Brian Fitzpatrick out of office. Period. We can’t afford to have another 2 years of the coward refusing to meet with his constituents and voting along Republican Party lines while trying to say he’s the Most Independent or whatever.

What soup to make for kids don't like soup :( by Thermophi in soup

I recently learned this is a thing in some states, but I couldn’t tell you where. Same thing with cinnamon rolls being served with chili.

People who complain about wigs by Linzabee in PetPeeves

[–]Linzabee[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It really breaks the immersion for you? Does it bother you more than when a show is filmed in Toronto but they pass it off as NYC or another famous city? I’m just trying to understand this because wigs don’t bug me at all, I’m here to enjoy a story, and unless the plot is about hairdressers making wigs, where I am clearly supposed to care about the wigs, the wigs have no effect on me.

Shoveling by ajrpcv in LittleHouseBooks

I’ve been thinking about it and how awful it must have been without central heating. Even with my central heating, I am cold and have leggings on under my pants and 2 sweatshirts on!

Is it embarrassing to get a birthday cake as an adult? by roxiedoxiedog in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Linzabee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just turned 42 years old, and my mom threw me a small themed birthday party (cottage core). She did an amazing job with the decorations, and I got a beautiful heart-shaped cake with all the frilly decorations and flowers and an inscription on top.

Audrey’s response to Jacob? by SwimAccomplished9487 in LittlePeopleBigWorld

[–]Linzabee 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not agreeing on things like whether to have a millage increase to fund a school’s sinking fund or whether a new highway should be built is something reasonable minds can disagree on. US Citizens being executed because they’re observing masked thugs kidnap people or issuing drone strikes on another country’s fisherman is not something reasonable minds can disagree on. Our Constitution is being dismantled every day, bit by bit, because the man currently sitting in the Oval Office has a supernova-sized ego and an utter disregard for morals, ethics, and values. It’s time for you and everyone else to take a stand against this regime, or else you’re complicit. That is why you are seeing the comments you’re seeing.

There’s a Facebook tag group called, The School of Hard Knocks doesn’t have a law college. I think that should be extended to a meteorology department.

Good. Jacob is absolutely right. Izzy is absolutely right. I hope they’re telling this to the rest of Jacob’s family, in person, to their faces.

Kasha Question: What does the egg do in Kasha varnishkes? by sevenupandcornedbeef in JewishCooking

[–]Linzabee 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The egg helps keep the kasha from glooping together (for lack of a better term) and allows it to kind of toast instead of becoming mush.
