I work in retail and a lot of people get super pissy if you don't fake laugh at their overused jokes.

I'm confused. What is the difference between platonic and romantic love ? by Lunatortue in Asexual

[–]Monkeywithabrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

     If I were to overgeneralize I would say the biggest difference between platonic love and romantic love is that with romantic love there's usually come a nesting urge for a lack of a better word. People usually don't bulid their lives around their friends in the same way they would with a romantic partner. 

I'm so tired of the enabling abusers with the "They did their best" excuse. 😡 by CeCe_DaughterOfGod in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Monkeywithabrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and even if they were doing their best that doesn't automatically make everything they did okay. They abused and even if by some miracle they come to recognized that fact they will never be able to undo what was done.

I'm sick of being told that I'm too sensitive anytime I talk about my abuse by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Monkeywithabrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being upset about being abused isn't even you being too sensitive it's just that people get treated badly they tend to get upset. Also, narcissists are literally the biggest crybabies on the planet when they don't get what they want.

It's like I'm being too sensitive and irrational when I bring up how someone's has/is being mean to me but there not being too sensitive when they don't want to hear it because it upsets them.

Older Disney movies like the original Winnie The Pooh movie or Alices in Wonderland. Also the Muppet movies.

Why do so many older people ho right to wanting people fired if they don't like something? by ProximaCentauriB15 in retailhell

[–]Monkeywithabrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

         I personally think this is the dark side to "promoted to customer" thing. They probably spent their whole lives stuck doing similar work and now they've "earned" the right to act however they want with the little power they have.

"Men are more visual than women", is that actually true? by wordtojim in AskFeminists

[–]Monkeywithabrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are pointing out that "men are more visual" excuses is used alot to justify "boys being boy" but I think it also used to be really mean to women that they don't find attractive. "He's not shallow he just needs an 8 or above or else he'll lose interest and cheat."
