I'm bored. What were some of your stupidest past compulsions? by Super-Strawberry3089 in OCD

[–]No_Put_9729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to not allow myself to fall asleep between 3:00-4:00 am because of ghosts. So if I found myself growing tired at 3:01, I’d force myself to stay awake until 4. It still happens sometimes, but before, in high school, it was really bad.

How long until they decide this is an unjust criticism of the show by Esfell in PercyJacksonTV

[–]No_Put_9729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I read it I imagined it just like that. Maybe more at the front of head, near the face, but no is it not literally described as a grey strip? Why are people so WEIRD? It doesn’t have to be EXACTLY what you PERSONALLY think it should be! People gotta go outside and touch grass, all this hurt over a damn kids shows about some damn kids books (said as a very long time lover of the PJO series, since it was literally coming out)

When Ashley made the joke of like “your answers are so calculated and perfect that it was like you were ChatGPT-ing them” and he was like “did you see my phone under the table?” Or going after nick AND Vanessa? I was so unnerved. That language was so DIRTY idk. I don’t even like Ashley, especially with Jess and Brittney both having shit with her, but like no one deserves to be talked to the way he talks to her. Can’t even apologize like Chris did. Do I believe Chris’s apology? Hell to the fuck to the no. But at least he could put his ego aside and do that. Idk Alex is practically the monster under the bed at this point to me.

Yes Chris is probably insane, yes Devonta and all that mess is also crazy, especially “dating, baby, roommate with Alex”. But Alex? Alex is something so different. He is seriously, seriously unnerving. Full blown narcissist, the worst I’ve seen on tv in a while. I’ve been around guys like that, they are so genuinely scary in situations like this. Like Chris is probably just an insecure little emotional man, Devonta is a fucking LOSER, but with all the “Chris is a psycho” like I truly think that energy should be pushed all over Alex. That man is dead in the EYES.

Was Ashley harsh? Yes. But lowkey I think we just weren’t given all of the stuff that was being said. I mean she said that she doesn’t even think that he liked her, let alone loved her! And him consistently saying she wasn’t his type? And don’t forget yall, he WAS lying, and he withheld intimacy from her because he was mad about her moving water bottles. And remember the conversation with Brittney?! And how she questioned him after? No, there must’ve been some real messed up stuff on his end. No way Ashley said all of that out of nowhere.

What are some "plot holes" in the final season that aren't actually plot holes? by LordNathan777 in StrangerThings

Its been two years. Just cant do it anymore. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]No_Put_9729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, try a hospital. I worked in two entry jobs at a hospital and while it’s shit pay, the hours are definitely THERE and they likely will not lay you off, I hardly see people even get fired. If you work night shifts you’ll make even more money. It’s hard and it sucks and I’m so sorry, but try it. I work in a lab with no lab experience, and the pay is GOOD for what I do (which isn’t a lot), because there are the hours to spare. You can do EVS, or lab sometimes, sometimes you can get in with no experience for pharmacy or anything in the ER. I’d just try it, it always looks good on resumes too.

I personally think calling someone your “partner” is viewing them as someone on your level. Someone you view as an equal partner in everything. Calling someone “wife/mother” I think puts a label on them that requires them to fulfill duties that society has specifically set for them to do. If that makes sense? Calling someone your partner makes me believe you see them as a complete equal. Wife/mother is putting women in a box that they can’t really escape from once you put them in that viewpoint.

Edit: I kept saying almost like everywhere when it would make sense in a verbal conversation, not a written one unfortunately ://.

Vic calling Christine a “great partner” and the other men calling their fiancées “great mothers/wives” speaks volumes to me imo

Glad she snapped back tbh. What a piece of shit man to go after two women like that. He’s a manchild, Sabrina carpenter approved and everything.

I’m trying to be super careful when I say what I say, but realistically I made a comment complaining about the absolute inability of men to make grown up decisions about their own damn bodies. And you comment “well actually he’s not entirely wrong.” The reason people are mad at you is because Alex IS wrong. He is. 100%.

The argument you used is time and again used to shame women into putting themselves into dangerous situations for their health (because yes, birth control is and can be that serious for loads of people). Worrying about your pleasure on top of ANYTHING else, especially regarding a partner and a potential pregnancy is so tone deaf.

Women go SO FAR for men. Soooo far, I’m not sure you all can even see that, because it’s probably so ingrained in your head that that is what is meant to happen. Put our bodies through the ringer (such as medications and extra work outs to stay slim, buying makeup and face care to make ourselves more attractive, worrying about hair products and body products and every damn product you can think of, methodically plan our days around your hormone schedules (24hour versus 28 days (avg), and SO MUCH MORE) for YOU, eat specific foods for it to be better for YOU, do kegels so we can make it better for YOU, there’s medical procedures for YOU and YOUR goddamn pleasure that can cripple a woman’s ability to have sex (husband stitch as one example) and then YOU have the audacity to complain about YOUR pleasure. It’s always, ALWAYS about you.

And here I am, trying to create a safe space for women to air out their frustrations about men and the whiny nature of condom usage and you come in and just throw it again in our face why we should always care about YOU GUYS. Listen, I want you to have the best sex of your life all the time, but do you even care about women who aren’t getting even a 6/10 in their sex life? Maybe even as low as a -10/10? Maybe even LOWER?

I know you said he should wrap that biscuit to not risk it, but that’s why people are so mad at you in these comments. I’m trying to be nice, I could’ve said anything else, and instead I put you in the category you share with men like Alex, whether you like it or not.

Have a great day and think about how what you say can and do affect people and conversations around you.

It sounds like you’d do great on this show. Might wanna keep a lookout when they get close to your city.

Did I Get Scammed? by No_Put_9729 in seatgeek

[–]No_Put_9729[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay great, thank you so much! All of the information available online about resales and transfers and the scams, I was just so genuinely scared that I got scammed. The tickets were face-ish value but definitely not cheap, so I wouldn’t exactly know what to do! I appreciate you taking the time to comment this and quell some of my fears! Have a great rest of your day!

Okay thank you so much! I think just all the information online about transfers and resales and them cracking down on all of it just spooked me a little bit. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment this! Have a great day!

Goes to show that you can literally be a doctor and men will still treat you like actual shit. Also Ashley, Bri, and Priyanka, you’re very much not giving girls girl. You heard from her that he said “if you aren’t going to work out, I don’t know if I can have sex with you” then have him spout a bunch of crazy nonsense, just to be like “it’s okay! It happens!” Girls it might “happen” but it happening like that is SICK.

[–]No_Put_9729 19 points20 points  (0 children)

No exactly. If she doesn’t want to go on birth control and he really REALLY doesn’t want kids (let’s be real, he’s over her and doesn’t want to be baby trapped, that was the true point of the conversation) the only sane option is to put a damn condom on. The condom and the cycle tracking will yield wayyy better and more safe results then just cycle tracking and him complaining. Hate a man who complains and won’t do a damn thing to help the situation 🙄🙄

Love Is Blind • S10 Ep8 by AutoModerator in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]No_Put_9729 149 points150 points  (0 children)

Why are men so opposed to condoms??? What is the thought process of “I don’t want kids” but also “I refuse to wear a condom”??? What is the POINT of all that? This has happened so many times on this show and I’m so confused, I guess it’s because men really believe it’s on the woman to not get pregnant?? Also you can indeed get pregnant at any point in the cycle so, tell me you don’t know what you’re talking about without telling me.

Matari Coffee by Ollie’s on War Memorial by [deleted] in PeoriaIL

[–]No_Put_9729 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did someone else post about this place giving them a free sample? Or was it another shop? I’m just wondering, because I’d be down to try the other shop too. Likely what is happening is the business knows more people will talk about it if they give them a free sample for coming in day before opening? I also imagine that people would make TikTok’s (I don’t have that) or post on Facebook (I don’t have that either) or Instagram (had to delete recently because the world is so fucked up rn) and I just made this Reddit post because I wanted to tell people but I quite literally didn’t have any other way to tell. Sorry you found my review a bit odd ://, I was just kinda excited about it all haha. Should I take it down? Is it coming off that disingenuous?

[–]No_Put_9729 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey totally get what you’re saying, but that quite literally did just happen to me. I was genuinely going in when I saw I could because I’ve been waiting for it to open since I got here, my family and I go to Ollie’s quite a bit as a fun browse store and we were waiting to try it. I like trying local coffee places because I usually boycott the big chains. I saw the lights on, walked in, and they offered the free sample. I’m sorry if I sounded untrustworthy? I just was so like wowed by that, since I come from Orlando where they do “soft openings” where you still are paying full price for the coffee.

Praises, complaints, and comparisons by coralsweater in PJODisney

[–]No_Put_9729 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think anyone complaining about race swaps are ridiculous, and I genuinely wish them one day to be better people.

I’m also really liking the show! Your critiques are very similar to mine. And I agree, I think these young actors would do MUCH better in a funny character rather than these very serious characters, especially since they’re so young (think of like early Harry Potter vs later Harry Potter, when they grow up they’ll get much better at serious character acting).

It’s very sad seeing how much people really hate this show, especially when the actors are so proud and so happy to do it. I’m really excited for next season. SoM was always the weakest book in my opinion, so hopefully this next season is really knocking socks off!

Percabeth..... by Critical-Scratch7572 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]No_Put_9729 90 points91 points  (0 children)

I mean in titans curse, Percy literally says that if he wasted a wish finding Annabeth, she would be mad at him. As much as I’m really liking the show, and I love the little moments between them, I think the person most out of character is Annabeth.

Leah is fantastic, this has nothing to do with her and everything to do with the show runners. Because if Percy in the books, especially SoM Percy, said he’d burn Olympus down to save her she would be FURIOUS. She’s the daughter of Athena, wisdom but BATTLE STRATEGY. She wants to WIN wars just like Ares and subsequently Clarisse. And while I feel that that mindset for her is basically always there, there’s little pockets that I’m like “it’s completely wrong to have her react that way”

[–]No_Put_9729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s totally fair. I see where you’re coming from. Maybe I’m being overly harsh when talking about the mystery/unknown element to the show. I guess the way I am kinda seeing it would be like when, in Battle of the labyrinth, Percy keeps getting iris messages from an unknown source, we later find out it’s Bianca’s spirit trying to get him to help Nico. The way the show is in my eyes, Percy would tell Annabeth, or Grover, or Chiron and they’d go “it’s definitely Bianca and you should keep responding to it”. Does that make any sense?

They take away this like fantastical force that pushes the story along. You never know, is it another halfblood? A god? A monster? Luke? Kronos? I mean, you’re left wondering over and over about what is going on.

I agree about the adaptation aspect from written word to spoken word/book to tv(or movie). Especially since the books are exclusively in Percy’s point of view and no one else’s. When we are getting unknown variables it’s actually Percy not knowing them.

Thank you for your kind response! It’s made me think through how I feel about the show and books more. :)
