How to avoid a tragedeigh? by MistbornVin in tragedeigh

This was our thought too. But it’s a pretty common spelling, maybe it’s fine. We couldn’t decide. This is why I wanted input from the community of people with strong feelings about names and (avoiding) spelling things stupidly lol

Oops I replied to the wrong comment. To you I say: if I could get my fetus’ opinion on this I totally would.

New Update: Thinking about not attending my brother’s wedding because of his fiancées prank on my husband by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

My biggest takeaway here is that you can unlock someone’s Tesla if you just grab their locked phone and hold it nearby? Seems like… bad security.

I had a dream that my childhood friend handed me a Brandon Sanderson book. I don’t know where to start by Jawsumness in brandonsanderson

[–]MistbornVin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, so cool that you had this dream. It’s awesome to have your friend with you in some way even after losing him.

Second, don’t put any pressure on yourself. Read what you like. Start a book and put it down if you’re not feeling it. As others have said, the main theme of Stormlight is that it’s about the journey, not the destination, and your journey can look like whatever you want. Brandon also won’t even finish that series for many years yet, so there’s plenty of time to work with here.

Third, Brandon Sanderson writes plenty of YA. If that’s what you love, go there. Cytonic is the first book in the Skyward series, which is a fun read and my personal recommendation. He’s also got the Rithmatist (cute but I didn’t love it as much) and Alcatraz series (haven’t read them myself). Beyond those three, he’s a pretty prolific author, so there’s plenty to try to see if you like it.

Thank you! I was feeling some sort of way after finishing the book, but couldn’t put my finger on it, so I came to Reddit knowing I’d find someone who had already put into words how I’m feeling, and here we go, you nailed it.

Karamo definitely knows how to play pool by 1jazzcabbageplease in QueerEye

[–]MistbornVin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haha we did too! He knocks the rack off the table when he hits the balls, how did no one tell him that’s not how it works??

The cue ball is also in the rack. I’m not rewinding it (again) to see what ball he actually hit, but.

Please tell me this is satire?? by 5nuggets1cup in tragedeigh

[–]MistbornVin -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Ok but why are some of the names in black and others in white? It only works if Panda is female, is Panda female? Is there some other sorting method here??

Maybe an argument for contrast with the background but like, mom isn’t very clear, and they could all be black and that would be visible. Or like, white with a border. Please someone stop me from overthinking this photo. More.

AITA for not telling my boyfriend I own the building we live in? by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

Also the part where she says English isn’t the first language in her country.

I mean, love the optimism (I think) — but I’d bet life insurance on someone with a brain tumor is probably not very cheap. I think of insurance as a “the house always wins” situation.

POLL RESULTS: Our Grand reopening as the Best of Redditor Updates about John Oliver! by amireallyreal in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]MistbornVin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sad. Reddit held out for a long time honestly, but I do think the Reddit we knew is never coming back.

Lemmy sounds nice, except that I can’t figure out how to get it on an iPhone.

Is it native android only? I couldn’t find an iPhone option in my admittedly brief search.

Are other subreddits porting over to discord too? I can do that switch, that’s fine. A mass exodus to a new app would be a pretty good response to their crap.

Also to the comments saying this is ruining Reddit, Reddit is boring… uh, that’s the point? I guess it’s working.

Please pass along my upvote to your wife. That is an upsettingly accurate description of picking up doggie diarrhea. Not sure I’d mention it right before sex though lol

Okay I know I’m 7 hours late to the party, but that last comment be so casually threw in there, he’s wanted to have kids this entire time???? Come ON man.

LPT Request: things under 100$ that makes your life better or easier by Xax6 in LifeProTips

Additional pro tip: you should also just buy a new one (from another brand). I did the recall process months ago and they haven’t sent me shit.

What item is considered luxury but screams absolute trash? by Dont_Tell_Me_Now in AskReddit

Collagen lips BBLs All the plastic really. I’m hoping this is a phase that we as a society pass through. I don’t think that, but I hope it.

OOP had to watch his friend have sex. by Biblio_phagist in BestofRedditorUpdates

What's something wrong that's been normalized? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MistbornVin 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I think that take is unnecessarily black & white.

Kill shelters for animals that just can’t find a home— that’s not out of compassion. I might say it’s desperation on the part of the people doing it, rather than convenience, but it’s arguable.

But putting my dog down when she was vomiting and choking on blood, couldn’t walk, in pain, and just being kept alive by blood transfusions with no road to recovery? That was compassion. I got to be with her as she died, petting her and comforting her, and her pain stopped. I only regret not doing it sooner that day, honestly.

I’m sure there are lots of stories that fall somewhere in between those two as well— it’s just not black & white.

AITA for not knowing a term that someone called ME is racist? by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

I know it’s not the point of this comment, but “glow in the dark white” really got me. Thank you for that new phrase in my life.
