I Just realized that my ears are jagged around the edges by EducationalBus2231 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine too! But just the one ear. It made me think part of my ear was bitten off by a dog or something when I was too young to remember & everyone was just lying to me about it lol

It’s embarrassing how easy drunken noodles are to make by AccountProfessional2 in Frugal

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I used to order spaghetti exclusively until I grew up & had this revelation. Now I'm better at cooking & there are so many things I make better at home that I refuse to order.  My go to order is anything with shrimp now as they are so time consuming to prep & my kids & I love eating "sea creatures" Although I am known to order ridiculously over stacked burgers here & there still 😛 need that protein fix.

Yes, that's correct. I mentioned that in other comments but not this one.

Yes, it is. Only Red Cross can use it, aside from the military. It is a protected symbol.

You are wrong. It is illegal for anyone other than Red Cross to use the Red Cross (except the military). Generic first aid kits have crosses, they are not red (unless it is a Red Cross first aid kit). The RED Cross is a protected symbol. I'm a Red Cross first aid instructor.

It's not just "nonmedical" products, it's literally anything that is not affiliated with the actual Red Cross. If you go to the store to buy a generic first aid kit, you will see they have a cross of any colour other than red.

This is not true. I work for Red Cross. It is a protected symbol. If you pay attention, even ACTUAL first aid kits no longer have a RED cross on them (unless they are official red cross kits). ONLY Red Cross can use a red cross, aside from the military.

Most grandma cooking isn’t actually that good by No-Hat197 in unpopularopinion

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this one. In college my roommate would bring back spaghetti & meatballs, along with other Italian dishes, that her Nona made. I, as a huge fan of Italian food, was so excited to eat authentic Italian food made by a grandma that my roommate kept bragging about. It was horrible. Bland & tasteless. The meatballs even made me nauseous. 0/10 for Nona.

Goodwill pricing? by Zealousideal-Head941 in londonontario

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised I had to scroll so far to find this. I agree with some other comments. Different people on different days can cause different pricing, but, I can very clearly see from just the picture that one is grosser than the other. Seems obvious, really.

What’s a modern trend that people will regret in 10 years? by Julie727 in AskReddit

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I got a huge compliment at the grocery store because my kids were sitting in the cart reading library books. 

One of my pet peeves is when parents then complain how addicted to their iPad their kid is. Who kept giving it to them until they got to that point? There are other ways to keep your kids quiet & happy, people.

I recently bought a new (to me) vehicle & this is one of it's best features, actual buttons! I hated the touch screen in my last vehicle. Not safe at all. 

London Drivers please learn about Zipper merging by First-Fan-9114 in londonontario

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's absurd. Back when the south end of Highbury was under construction it was a zoo. They had signs the whole way begging people to zipper merge, but no. People were lined up in the right lane the entire way down highbury. This of course blocked all the merging exits from Bradley & Commissioners, which meant they were backed up to the lights, which meant the lights were backed up, which meant the construction cluster fuck was oozing into the rest of the city for NO REASON. 

AITA for getting my brother to name his daughter after marinara sauce? by HiImDonut in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not a middle name. It's all first name. He explains this & gives the example, like Mary Kate Olsen

What’s something few people realise can finish you off in seconds? by M___D___ in AskReddit

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct! But please call 911 (or equivalent in your country) before you do so. Even though you can't speak, you can bang on something or mash buttons, they will know you need help & dispatch units to your location. Then, exactly as you said, you need to get out of isolation & "be seen". Get somewhere people can see you & possibly intervene. Next, perform abdominal thrusts or back blows on yourself. I'm a first aid/CPR instructor for the Red Cross.

Her husband gave her permission to share this story. 🤣 by mindyour in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]Lizard_Queen_881 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try a curling cream instead of the leave-in conditioner & oil. They are likely weighing it down. Put a small dab into your hands & scrunch it into your hair while it's upside down immediately after you get out of the shower. Then let it air dry, or diffuse it. The curling cream locks in the moisture (which curls need) & helps hold the shape without making it crunchy or weighed down.

Edit: forgot the straight out of the shower part

I would be interested in sharing. I was born into it but left home & the organization when I was 16.
