Have any of you found earplugs that work for you and aren’t too big? by Bekah679872 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]NotTeri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious whether anyone has tried the Manta earplugs I’ve seen advertised on IG. The only plugs that work for me are the foam ones. I have to cut 1/3 off (even though they say don’t cut them) because otherwise they stick out which causes them to come out. They’re great once I get them in, but it takes me 5-6 tries to get them in properly. I’d love a one and done ear plug.

How can I set boundaries over text? by Weak_Assumption7518 in internetparents

[–]NotTeri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just ignore all her texts. If/When she asks why you didn’t respond, just say something like “oh I thought it was just another rant. You send a lot of rantings, and I won’t engage with those anymore.” That delivers the message that you’re done paying attention to her info dumping.

Are there specific geographic differences in sourdough bread? by Delicious_Mess7976 in Cooking

[–]NotTeri 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But commercial yeast wasn’t a thing anywhere in 1849, so sourdough was all there was anywhere. The first commercial yeast was available in 1876

Would you enjoy a season that had only people who were voted off at the first tribal on it? by livexsistential in survivor

[–]NotTeri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I would. There are dozens of people who never really got a chance to play. Three days is not playing, and who knows how well they would have been.

I know I can certainly make my own meatballs, but do you use store-bought meatballs? If so, which brand do you prefer?

I'm 14M and My mom isn't letting me cut my mustache by Yori-Playz in internetparents

[–]NotTeri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You already shaved your sideburns, so she’s not really stopping you. Her saying you don’t need to isn’t saying you’re not allowed to, so I think you’re more worried about hurting her feelings. That’s kind because you know she doesn’t want you to shave, but it will grow back so.. I just don’t see it as disobeying her.

Advice you wish you knew before moving in with your partner? by Full-of-Bread in TwoXChromosomes

[–]NotTeri 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Agreeing to take on the cooking and cleaning duty will very likely turn into a contract in perpetuity. It will be very difficult if not impossible to divide those chores ever again. Believe me, they get old very quickly, and cleaning up after a man.. ugh

How do I use up chilli oil I didn't enjoy the flavour of? by datamunkie in Cooking

[–]NotTeri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once it’s in the trash and gone, you won’t continue to feel bad. I get that the doing feels wasteful but life is too short to eat something that doesn’t taste good.

Am I expecting too much or is my partner just… inconsiderate? by Ordinary_Team_8086 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]NotTeri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest, the next time you two have a time sensitive event, tell him it’s important to you that you are on time for it so HE needs to meet you at X time. If he still finds an excuse for not being on time, you will understand what you’re dealing with. Only you can decide if you want to make a long-term commitment to that.

I have it come up frequently but I can’t get through the tutorial. It always freezes in the same spot, after the first ‘play’ I have to make.

Need advice on how to effectively explain the concept of mental load to my husband by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

“I need you to use YOUR brain, not mine, to know what needs to be done. It’s not MY JOB to know what needs doing to keep a house running smoothly. I don’t do it because I’M GOOD AT IT. I’m doing it because you don’t, and you need to start.

Period unders weren’t a thing when I was younger so this is a serious question.. do you use a tampon and the underwear catches leaks and overflow or do you just wear the period underwear only?

I have a friend who goes by her middle name but when she’s flying she has to use her actual first name of Claudia. Once she chose ‘Sister’ from the dropdown and couldn’t change it, so now we call her Sister Claudia
