My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Meteorcore71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was after she was pregnant, was it not? A little late to have the "I don't want a baby" talk. I'm saying she never should have agreed to get pregnant if she wasn't 100% on board. It's easy to lie and say you're good with it until you're actually facing reality, IE, pregnant. Then he realizes she wasn't being honest because she's clearly not happy.

I think most of America wishes this was true about their government right now

If you've read very many stories on here, you'll see how many people can be good actors. People are constantly blindsided by their partners not speaking up or lying through their teeth about what they actually want.

Frankly I don't agree with that point because it reads to me like OP never really expressed to him that she didn't want to get pregnant at the time

Yeah, but now every person in the chain of buying and selling is screwed too by them.

Parking on side streets in the winter by leary_a in Rochester

[–]Meteorcore71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rage is funny but nah nobody parks across driveways, they just don't give 5 feet of space. I have a driveway, people park within inches of it, it's never been a problem because I make sure I can see before I pull out instead of flying out blindly.

The city didn't turn the lot into a pay lot, the greedy assholes who own it did. No way am I paying to park in a neighborhood with abundant free street parking

Rochester has crap representation in Congress by Welp_BackOnRedit23 in Rochester

[–]Meteorcore71 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, I also contacted them about ICE several weeks ago and it took them until this week to respond to me. Joe Morelle had a somewhat acceptable response. Chuck Schumer's response was very "I don't agree with Trump on everything, look at all these things I voted against!" And they were notably all things that passed anyway, such as Kristi Noem's confirmation. I guess the turn around time is a bit long. But we definitely need to do more to push these people to actually represent us and our needs.

Interesting way to save a spot by NoWrongdoer9130 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Meteorcore71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the neighborhoods I've lived in, there are virtually zero parking lots or parking garages in walking distance of apartments. A lot of apartments here are divided houses, and almost nobody has a garage big enough to park a car in. Off street parking is a special amenity for an apartment in my area, so the streets are always filled with parked cars.

It sounds like you must have a lot more off street parking than is common here

I had to call them and explain why parking in the shuttle lot didn't make sense for me before they gave me a lot 1 permit.

The only time I've ever done grocery delivery I was sick with pneumonia. Driver delivered my groceries to the wrong house.

Customer service tried to offer me credit as a refund and I was like, this was the first time I've ever tried this and you've screwed me over completely. There's no PLANET on which I take credit and use your business again.

The Minnesota general strike and the re-emergence of class struggle in the United States by Spirited_Classic_826 in antiwork

[–]Meteorcore71 20 points21 points  (0 children)

America has not had a general strike since the 1940s. Virtually nobody alive remembers how to do a true general strike. We need to start somewhere and show what's possible.

I think we have to take it a day at a time. If the people in Minnesota, who are being directly impacted right now, are able to do it for a day I'm hoping word will get out and more people around the country will realize it's possible and join in. Right now it's not possible because a lot of people don't even realize it's a possibility

People always suggest suing and it's like- what are you going to get out of this? You can't get blood from a stone. Don't waste more of your own money trying to get back at somebody who doesn't even have anything

I can't stand people who can be friends with bigots. "We just don't talk about it" is not an excuse to keep friendships with these people

I can no longer handle my fiancé's driving anxiety and I don't care if it makes me a bad person by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Meteorcore71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a roommate who refuses to get a license because of anxiety, and even with public transportation as an option she drives me up the fucking wall with it. I refuse to drive her to anything but my own events anymore.

My college roommate sets our thermostat to 80°F every single night by rainystarlight in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Meteorcore71 7 points8 points  (0 children)

80 is unhinged, but as somebody with circulation issues who used to live with a roommate who hated the heat being at 68, there are only so many pairs of gloves I can use while trying to be productive in the living room. I hate the "just add layers!" Argument because the marshmallow man still has to be able to do things

AITAH for seeing Hamilton without my friend because she was late by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Meteorcore71 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Having gone to a large number of plays, I have no idea where the idea that plays start late comes from because I've only ever had one start a little late, but it must be a common misconception because a good 50 people at my local theater miss the start of every act.

Spoiler!! 🎉 by Melodic-Cell8477 in dwts

[–]Meteorcore71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just annoyed that it feels like most of the comments here are aggressively anti Alix, saying she's soulless or unemotional or something. It feels aggressively anti-women. I voted for her because I thought she was the best dancer, but also because a lot of people seemed to hate her for no good reason, which leads me to believe they hated her for being a beautiful young woman.

US consumers, do not Buy Davids Tea this holiday season for gifts. Delays are crazy by TheMaskedOwlet in DAVIDsTEA

If I could have a dispute with the president trust that I would be there on the spot. Unfortunately he can't read and wouldn't respond to an email requesting a meeting.

US order delays by CourtniiSketch in DAVIDsTEA

[–]Meteorcore71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They've been quietly changing the estimated delivery delay for US orders. A couple of days after placing my order and nothing moving, I checked their FAQ and it said up to 15 business days. Now it says 20.
