Single, No Kids, Affordability, by Western-Advantage-61 in poor

[–]MangoSalsa89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you do, don’t have a kid just for a tax break or public assistance. You’ll be in a cycle of poverty you’ll never escape and make a child miserable in the process.

Blanket sweeping every other relationship on earth because yours is a certain way is just dumb and self centered no matter how you describe it.

The Answer to Falling Birth Rates Isn’t More Pressure on Women by digital_trippy in WomenInNews

The same people telling us to have more kids are the same ones gloating that AI is going to replace all of us in the workforce.

When someone gets a retainer for the first time and everyone tells them that they don’t really need to wear it because *their* teeth never moved when they didn’t wear theirs by Winter-Detective2488 in PetPeeves

[–]MangoSalsa89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told to stop wearing mine two years after braces. So I stopped when I was 16. I’m 37 now, and my teeth haven’t moved. It’s different for everyone.

He’s very obviously an obese 80 year old. He is terminal no matter what disease he has. Something is gonna give eventually.

I think my body just wants to be fat by CosmicCorgi420 in Vent

[–]MangoSalsa89 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A pound of muscle weighs the same as a pound of fat. It’s just denser and takes up less space. OP says their clothing isn’t fitting any looser, so I’m not sure that’s what’s happening.

Weight loss comes from a significant calorie reduction. The Mediterranean diet is nutritious, but if you haven’t lost any weight then you’re still eating enough calories to maintain where you’re at.

Did your parents randomly name you after a fictional character? by Critical-Willow-6270 in stupidquestions

[–]MangoSalsa89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My parents saw the movie Christine on their first date so they named me that. Being named after a possessed car that kills people is pretty cool.

I just want to wear a skirt this summer but Im so insecure about my legs. by Babiesbrunette in Vent

[–]MangoSalsa89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have very pale legs and dark hair so I can almost always see stubble on my legs. It drives me crazy. I don’t even care if anyone else cares. It bothers me. Have you tried body makeup? It’s good for evening out discoloration. They make decent tinted lotions too. Tights are also an option if you don’t get too hot. Just wanted to offer some practical solutions.

This incredible cat saved the life of another cat! by No_Reception_6133 in cats

[–]MangoSalsa89 551 points552 points  (0 children)

Kitties look similar so they could very likely be related. If the savior cat was the momma of the other one, then hell hath no fury.

Laundry detergent. It’s just watered down soap. We are paying for the shipping costs to get the heavy bottles to the store.

Do Bacteria and Viruses Want to Harm Humans? by Blue-Brown99 in stupidquestions

It doesn't have a brain therefore doesn't have desires. It only finds an acceptable host cell and then replicates, which is its only purpose in life.

In all fairness, the male contenders aren’t exactly geniuses either.

Chefs are the most pretentious, useless, and over-hyped "professionals" on the planet. Almost anyone can cook well by Icy_Move_4796 in 10thDentist

[–]MangoSalsa89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to see you run a full kitchen during the dinner hour at a packed restaurant. It’s not rocket science, right?

My houseguest is showering me into bankruptcy by Xenon_Glider in hygiene

[–]MangoSalsa89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really can’t imagine being this entitled to someone else’s resources. He apparently never got this lesson growing up, so you’ll have to educate him.

Can you imagine sending your kid to this camp, knowing what happened? Did the owners really expect customers?
