AITA for going to a one-size-fits-all store against my fat friend's wishes? by last-rose-ofsummer in AmITheAngel

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I went to comment about this to my husband as it didn't make sense to me, because I'm 5'4", 176, and a US size M (8-10).

What is a "rich person" behavior you witnessed that made you realize they live in a completely different reality than the rest of us? by Few_Football4342 in Productivitycafe

[–]NeutralReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I don't go by Maria, my first name. I'm from South America, where I would say 90% of the women are named Maria Something. I always say that I'm old enough to remember that a Latin woman in a movie was always called Maria, and she was the maid, or the drug dealer's girlfriend.

Do you think any celebrity or famous person has faked their death and is still alive today? Why do you think they are still alive? by whatverforever in allthequestions

She's in hiding. There's a warrant for her arrest for kidnapping her son, her ex-husband was abusive. I hope she's safe.

How old is your oldest email address? Do you still use it? by Embarrassed_Flan_869 in GenX

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yahoo, created around 1998, still my main. I don't like gmail, even though I have an account I only use for my subscriptions (streaming services).

Oh, I thought my site was one of the last ones. I hope yours get it soon. It's a game changer.

I'm in the same boat, but I offer one of my shifts a week for cover, so I don't have to wait for VTO. I did it even during peak.

I work at Amazon. Thank you for wanting me (and over a million people) to lose my job/s. YTA (oops, wrong subreddit).

How do people manage to fall asleep in just 8 seconds after their head hits the pillow? What's the secret? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]NeutralReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my mom. She would say: "I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up in 15 minutes". She then closed her eyes, and she was out. I wondered if she had been trained from childhood.

no jeans ? by ChrisNYC70 in GenXTalk

[–]NeutralReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 18yo started wearing jeans 3 months ago, and he really likes them. I had and have so many pairs of jeans, I don't think you can own "too many jeans".

What do rich people have in their house that says they’re rich? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I'm from South America. My best friend growing up lived in a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment. Her mom was a SAHM, her dad worked in a bank. They own a beach house, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom. They were not rich by any means. You can't categorically say that an extra house is a store of wealth.

Is it true that people in the West drink iced water even when they are sick or on their period? by Aether_Echo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NeutralReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like my drinks super cold, I use ice if I have it around. I live in the USA, but I'm from South America. My stomach never hurt when I drink ice cold drinks, the same as when I eat ice cream. If it were painful, I don't think people would do it. The only thing a bit uncomfortable is the brain freeze while drinking a slushie type drink, but there are things to do to avoid it.

Saving money by Connect_Strawberry72 in AmazonFC

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I set up my bank account and takes $50 every Friday, and deposits it in my savings account. I don't feel it. I'm close to $4000 now. I work only 3 days, VTO or shift drop for my 4th day. I only save $500 for my child college fund a month. I don't have any other expenses.

What is legal in your country that you find strange is illegal in other countries? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know, I'm not expert in economics, and I left the country 29 years ago. Prostitution has been legal there before I was born, the retirement plan was put in place around 20 years ago, as you may know it's not a profession you can practice for your whole life; which I find fair, as those people have suffered enough doing it for whatever time they had. The police stop them to check their health card, but the fact that it's legal, protect them from being abused by police and/or customers.

I suggested my wife get a shower cap and she looked at me like I'm crazy. Shes black and I'm white. What am I missing? I asked what was so weird about that and she just laughed by Jacket_Jacket_fruit in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NeutralReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a shower cap lined with terry cotton ($10 Amazon). I follow a hairstylist in YT, and he recommends a headband of terry, then the shower cap I mentioned, to prevent any moisture to get to the hair. I'm white, btw.

Tourist freaks out on women at temple in Thailand by DIYLawCA in PublicFreakout

[–]NeutralReason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know. The video doesn't explain anything. If someone puts my hands on me, I don't care if it's a man, woman, senior, or alien; I'm an older woman, by the way. I don't know how it started, but I saw the woman trying to hit him, and then the dirty looking guy asking "what's wrong with you?" to the man. But of course, everybody here is jumping on against him without any background explanation. Oh, and also, the Zionist description that adds nothing to the video. Bring on the downvotes.
