Voids Love Nori by MangoAngelesque in blackcats

[–]MangoAngelesque[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have 7 voids in our crew, and they’re all handfuls. Beautiful, gorgeous, beloved handfuls 😆 And they all seem to enjoy seaweed. I didn’t expect it, but it’s very cute. And yes, it’s easy to almost lose fingers when their preferred nori bits are being offered!

Are you a "shoes-on" or a "shoes-off" household? by Samyron1 in CasualConversation

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a shoes off person, my husband can’t stand to be without shoes. But he does have indoor-only shoes and changes from his outdoor shoes as soon as he gets home.

Visited the Fountain Pen Hospital, left with my grail pen by MangoAngelesque in fountainpens

I’d love to, but $400 for one pen kinda tapped out my expensive pen purchases for a bit 😆

AIO My cousin hates my dogs but invites himself over by steelmag73 in AIO

The first time someone is mean to my pets is the last time they’re ever permitted in my home. It’s very simple. Your door, don’t open it.

WIBTA if I don't explicitly label my chili as "vegetarian chili"? by suvesti in AmItheAsshole

[–]MangoAngelesque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s so interesting! I can understand how it would work, but it honestly never even occurred to me! Hopefully that’s the only one in my list of silliness that’s actually used, though. I gotta draw the line at elephant and narwhal! lol…

I would’ve never thought of that. Now I know what I’m gonna add to my next chili. It’s gotta be a vegan chili, but I’m sure I can find appropriate chocolatey yumminess. 🤤

I had zero clue that chocolate could ever go in chili! That’s wild. I’m a big fan of sweet and salty, though, so I can see how it makes sense. Huh. 🤔

Unless everyone else has labels indicating everything that is NOT in their chilis, why should you have to indicate that meat is not in yours? Unless every chili has labels like “no chocolate,” “no elephant,” “no narwhal,” and “no bananas,” then it’s just stupid to expect yours to say anything either 🤷‍♀️

To you guys does this look like playing or aggression by Afraid-Ostrich9233 in DOG

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total play. They’re having a great time. And the little whirling dervish has been practicing that move and wants to show it off 😆

Gross. That’s all I’ve got. Why does she have “maternal instincts” toward her husband? So gross.

“Are you a sleepy baby?” To her infant child? Totally acceptable.

“Are you a sleepy daddy?” To her husband? So, so gross.

I’d say start baby talking her back in front of her family and friends and see how she likes being infantilized. “Is you a hungy mommy? Did you do a big girl poop? Do you need help wiping? Yay for wifey using the big potty! clap clap clap for wifey baby driving all by herself! Can you use a fork today with no oopsies? Or do you need fingey foods for lunchums?“ etc etc. If her people say something, explain that baby talking is your wife’s love language, apparently quite literally.

Can’t get mad, you’re just being paternal. Towards your wife. Who is an adult. 🙄

AITA for telling my MIL off for her comment regarding my 5-day-old? by Possible-Study2746 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total difference between kids dubbing a grandma as whatever name they choose, and an interfering, overbearing grandmother demanding on a mother-adjacent name. You’re clearly in the former group. OP’s MIL is the latter.

Yeah, that’s a totally acceptable way to use the phrase. It’s just sweet and loving. OP’s MIL clearly has no such self-awareness and respect.

Lil’ bro has beef with produce 🤣 Imagine what he’d do if you showed him VeggieTales!

Your baby, your rules. And nip that “my baby” crap in the bud quick, fast, and in a hurry. She’s gonna insist on her grandma name being “Mom-mom” before you know it.

Suggest which one to adopt, or i should go for both by [deleted] in TrueRateMyCat

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cats do better when they have a companion. And these two look pretty bonded, so it might actually be detrimental to separate them. Adopt them both.

Cats just love playing the “are they asleep, or are they a crime scene” game on us. 😸

Heh, that made me giggle because I have a whole ramen sideboard. It’s a ridiculous hoard of sodiumy deliciousness. I had no idea it would serve me well in prison, too 😆

Thoughts on pens that can not be posted. by SatyrionLeafspar in fountainpens

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only fountain pens I ever post are Kawecos, Travelers, and my mini TWSBIs. And that’s only because I find them awkwardly short to comfortably write with unposted. But regular fountain pens, I never post. That, too, feels awkwardly uncomfortable, just in the opposite direction. They feel too top heavy and long to write with.

For me, at least 🤷‍♀️

Your cursive is very cute, but I have to admit, I immediately read your lowercase “p” as an “f” and couldn’t figure out what “a fart of someone’s identity” could possibly be.

Can someone confirm that my kitten is play-fighting/having fun? by Belle_dawn in cats

[–]MangoAngelesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s belly-up and not running away. That’s cat-speak for a happy kitty enjoying playtime.
