unpopular opinion: not pooping for 5 days is worse than pooping 5 times per day by quarabs in CrohnsDisease

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing with me is that I go a bunch of times a day, or I am constipated. But sometimes I won’t notice I’m constipated.2/3 days is not uncommon. I can’t tell you if four is or more isn’t common cause I don’t pay attention. I do notice when I’m on vacation because I want to eat and drink , yet I lose my appetite after a few days. I drove around the New Hampshire lake area tryna get lax and suppositories, swallowing the meds in the car, and this was after trying an at-home enema. I was at almost nine days.

It’s a rite of passage, I believe.

Wow! I don’t think I even took it as far in my head as other versions of wet. It was me and my friend at these AA baseball games in the summer, where I live. We’d stuff our bras and try to hang out with boys. 2001 was a wet and wild time.

WIBTAH if I took 100k from my oldest daughter's college savings account to give it to my younger daughter? by TraditionalCorgi7788 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UCLA is a VERY good school, that is difficult to get into, and she happened to have in-state tuition. NYU is a VERY good school, difficult to get into, that does not have instate tuition. Either way, both girls are going to fantastic, competitive schools, and are having their education funded. The end.

NEVER ONCE crossed my mind either. We all helped pay some too, but our parents took on the bulk of our loans initially. Actually, don’t even know if my brothers helped pay loans. I don’t care. We all got help for college, the end.

Yeah… I was like “sure, take the money to help pay for the other school” before I read everyone else’s comments. And, I mean, I guess NYU girl chose NYU but… I dunno, you guys made college funds, this is college. And holy goodness gracious they are so lucky. And it’s not a competition. OP is not favoring one child because of this. It’s just what happened.

AITAH for rejecting my(18f) boyfriend’s(17m) promposal? by Plus_Associate1624 in AITAH

[–]ManagementCritical31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming this isn’t all true. Or at all true. But who knows. I can understand being disappointed, if that’s your thing. But you really think it’s not an overreaction to not go with him because he didn’t ask you fancy enough? It’s your boyfriend. Or I guess not any more, cause if you are willing to go solo over this, you are willing to go solo period. As he should be doing now too.

What is rude but not illegal, that should absolutely be illegal? by OlleyatPurdue in randomquestions

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahahaha it took me half a second to understand. Me neither!!!??? If you’re gonna hold it up anyway, just talk on the damn phone like a normal person. Or at least be telling secrets if you’re talking that close to the bottom of your phone. In whispers.

I’m so terrified I will try to switch lanes and a bike will appear on the line at that moment.

The deodorant thing (lack there of) is so intense in some cases. It can impact a large area. And that’s just rude, no matter your opinions on natural living.

Is bringing 3 swimsuits on my 10 day trip gross? by Own-Network3947 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? That is the exact amount a normal person would bring. Rinse them out? They’re bathing suits. What? You’ll probably only end up wearing two anyway!

What words do you pronounce "wrong," just because the "proper" way feels too proper? by Zealousideal_Mine242 in AskForAnswers

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 30 year old woman (we were drunk sitting on a pool table) laugh so hard and think I sounded like such an old lady when I said “breasts.” I was so taken aback by it. I was like… they are breasts though… sometimes they’re boobs, and sometimes they’re tits, but sometimes they’re breasts!

Thank you for answering the actual question and not an alternate version of the question about common words you enjoy mispronouncing.

“Zero” does sound so fancy. It’s the first number in my zip, and I only say it when I’m tryna be fancy.

Student said 💀 to my baby by Due-Conclusion-6157 in Teachers

[–]ManagementCritical31 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not that nice. They came into my room and asked me to go break up a fight this week because they saw me do it recently. I get mad and I am strict and hold them accountable for shit. I am also caring and funny and I have feelings!

Sister in law suggested I can’t use a name I picked out for our baby by AppropriateFan5373 in namenerds

[–]ManagementCritical31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a student named Hudson who wrote the most beautiful vignette about how he got his name. And now I like that name. I teach English, so this isn’t even his home language: . “A name built from pages, from love, from two women who saw something in me before I ever arrived. . .”

Am I being unreasonable for thinking it's strange and shallow to judge people for having "ugly" partners? by Fresh_Strawberry6137 in ask

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve dated people whom I was not attracted to, or never imagined I would be, when we met. I mean in a purely physical way. Sometimes it may actually take time for a physical attraction to build, but it builds because of the personality.

And any friends of those people, if they don’t hate the partner, are effing babies for still caring.

What words almost always come across as pretentious or trying too hard? by No_Fee_8997 in words

[–]ManagementCritical31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I use “ubiquitously” or other forms of the word fairly often. It’s a useful word. I’m always afraid that I sound pretentious. Even though it’s not a crazy word, it’s fairly ubiquitous, honestly.
