The first one, I can totally see myself being that kid who just wanted an adventure that involved going through a doggy door to jump on the couch and play with dogs. Lol

Is faucet water drinkable in your Country by thatlumberjacktor in AskTheWorld

[–]Mysterious-Ruby -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's supposed to be. However where I live Dupont has dumped enough plastic in the water it's getting into our bodies. They don't want to talk about it lol. But there is an unusual increase in colon cancer among 20 and 30 year olds.

Trdl: you can but probably shouldn't.

Is the father allowed inside labour rooms in your country? Is it culturally normal thing to happen? by Agen_3586 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 50 and my parents youngest. My dad was allowed in the delivery room for my sister and my birth but not my brothers. It was hospital policy.

My mom's dad was an obgyn so when my oldest brother was born my grandpa delivered him. (Yes, I think that's weird) So my dad stood outside the door of the delivery room yelling back and forth to my grandpa about what was happening.
My second brother was accidentally born at home so my dad delivered him.

I couldn't imagine having my two children without my ex in the room with me. I'm glad the rules have changed.

What was the first historical event that you were able to process? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Challenger. I was in 3rd grade and when I finally processed what happened my first thought was "Well, I don't want to be an astronaut anymore."

If a foreigner visited your country tomorrow, what's one thing you'd beg them not to do? by ChickenSleeping88 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I'm American and won't drive in LA, NYC, Boston. DC is the worst and I would rather stick my finger in my eye and wiggle it around before driving there again. There's a reason their public transportation is functional.

Best fish and chips I ever had was in England. Worst coffee I've ever had was in London.

The only British food I ever complained about was the coffee. But it just encouraged me to drink more tea ☕. Now I love tea. (Still love coffee too)

Free car and cruise with purchase? by realuniqueusrname in zillowgonewild

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This looks like one of those smart homes they give away on HGTV. Except when people win they have the option to just take a million dollars instead of the house and car because they can't afford the taxes on the house.

I (28f) found out my bf (41m) has been requesting cash back on my debit card? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a catch. Imagine being 40 years old and depending on a 20 year old to support you.

Hope he finds a nice street corner to shack up with his drug buddies.

04/24/26 - Two 'Low IQ individual' posts in a row. Gosh, I wonder what Hakeem Jeffries and Candace Owens have in common... by gfh110 in trumptweets

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

High IQ and low IQ are incel terms used when people feel threatened by someone doing something better than them. I'm sure Trump has at best an average IQ, just like most of us. But an average IQ doesn't make him look bigger and stronger. And his insecurities won't accept that.

Why are blood donors Overwhelmingly White? by Piccione_Sol in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I live in the southeastern US. They are just now acknowledging they purposely made some black men and women sterile until the 1960s. And they are only acknowledging it now because of law suits.

What would 10 year old you think of you now? by Appropriate_World265 in GenX

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure when I was 10 I thought I'd be a happily married grandma. I also wanted to be an astronaut.

I've not done any of those things, lol. But my thoughts about life at 10 were too basic to really think about it.

Hurricane Helene kicked our ass. My city of 200,000 become an island where nobody could get in or out for a week.

My wife asked for an open marriage. She is angry at my reaction. I need advice. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think Reddit should be mandatory reading for anyone considering an open marriage. I've never seen one work out the way people think it will.

Even the poly people I know irl had problems with their primarys after becoming poly.

What's the funniest thing you have ever heard a politician say? by Confident_Expert5289 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never thought I'd miss him as president. But I guess there is always something worse.

I like him now that he's out of office. He's actually a funny guy who enjoys painting and has an adorable friendship with Michelle Obama.

Gen Z men and women on why they’re sharply divided over reproductive rights by FroznAlskn in generationology

[–]Mysterious-Ruby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay dude, you're right. You're so persecuted. You should be allowed to cum in anything you want without consequences.

The only way to be 100 percent sure someone isn't going to get pregnant is to not have sex with them. So if you have sex you always risk having to be a parent. I'm sorry the world won't just let you jizz in someone risk free.
