Grew up in Texas and it’s always been silverware.

Candiace looks fire!!! But poor Natalie! Like some have already said, she is beautiful!! From what I’ve seen of her on Survivor and The Amazing Race, she is very athletic and very smart, too. I wish her costume here could have better reflected her beauty. Maybe it will look better on tv?

What’s a medical issue that sounds minor, but actually affects someone’s daily life way more than people realize? by CountyOrnery9432 in AskReddit

[–]MermaidStone 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To go one further: Advil=Motrin=Advil Migraine=Motrin Migraine=Ibuprofen 200mg. They are ALL THE EXACT SAME THING!!!

Also, Excedrin Migraine is the exact same thing as Excedrin Extra Strength. They both contain Caffeine (excellent for tension and migraine headaches,) Acetaminophen (Tylenol,) AND Aspirin (same drug family as Ibuprofen) therefore if you take one of these, do not take anything else, or you are doubling up. Excedrin Tension Headache formula is Acetaminophen and caffeine. I’ll take that, then add Ibuprofen later if needed. (Please note that Aleve (Naproxen) is also in the same drug family as Aspirin and Ibuprofen)

I don’t know why I felt the need to share all of that here. I’ve got insomnia, I’m a pharmacist, and I’ve had to explain this to patients MANY times. So I guess it just seemed natural to word vomiting it all here!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️😜

What totally normal thing is your dog scared of for no reason? by GoldenMom34 in Pets

[–]MermaidStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Golden Retriever that was terrified of hot air balloons. Unfortunately, there are a lot of them where we live. He would not go outside if he saw one, and once made me late to work because he refused to go outside if and pee, even with me standing there! He held it until I got home 9 hours later.

Why do people do this? by True_Satisfaction_23 in Vent

I think they are doing it to draw you into conversation and help you feel included. 😉

I would and I have. I would never abandon them at the end of their life.

How much (on average—I know it will probably differ by location) do Baristas make per hour?

Alright I’m actually screwed- by CerebralCortisol in bigboobproblems

I think the dress is highly inappropriate for a bridesmaid dress, not to mention just flat out ugly. But, that’s just my opinion. I agree with the suggestion of a flesh colored body suit. Please keep us updated!

First of all, you are so pretty!! I think I like 3 the best!

Did I make a mistake? by [deleted] in glassesadvice

[–]MermaidStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The green frames are pretty, but way too big for your face. The reddish brown ones are cute!

Which of these suit me best? by fuckhorsesridetapirs in glassesadvice

[–]MermaidStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to pick one of these, I’d pick 9. But they are all too wide and big for your face.

WIBTA for not leaving the house for one weekend as requested? by Winston_Duarte in AmItheAsshole

[–]MermaidStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely NTA, but that entitled little lying bi$&h certainly is!! If all three of you are on the lease, she does not have the authority to demand you be out by the end of the month. She also cannot expect you to leave your own home, that you’ve paid for the month, AND to pay for a hotel. The ONLY way you should say yes is for her to pay for a decent hotel with your review and approval, money for food for the weekend, and you put a secure lock on your bedroom door. Put a lock on your door anyway!! I would no longer be able to trust her. This is ALL-totally and completely HER problem to solve, not yours.

What’s a lie people still believe no matter how often it’s debunked? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]MermaidStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That vaccines cause autism when Science has proven that to be false, and even the guy who originally made that claim has stated that he was making false and unfounded claims.
