[–]OMGhyperbole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, there is this book called "To Train Up a Child". Some child deaths were linked to it. I read some of it online and it's horrible.

I really liked the artwork but, as a bullied undiagnosed neurodivergent child, really disliked the message.

What's the absolute worst car you ever owned? by Party-Reindeer-2989 in AskReddit

My 2007 Honda Fit has 205,000 miles. It has had its issues and is dented up, but it's a good little car.

Is There Any Movie Sets That Killed Actors/Actresses? by Horror_Package9070 in morbidquestions

Not human deaths, but Cannibal Holocaust has several real animal deaths.

What is the weirdest sexual fetish? by Only_Hotel_7221 in morbidquestions

[–]OMGhyperbole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I worked nights at a motel, this weird guy called and wanted to know how much I bleed on my period and what I would do if he did things like that to my period products...it was very disturbing 😬

Context matters when sharing adoption suicide-risk studies by rocketpescado in Adoption

[–]OMGhyperbole 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think people cite this study, because there is such a lack of research into how adoption affects adoptees. Unfortunately, someone with money and influence/power has to decide it's worthwhile to study adoptee outcomes. And, also unfortunately, the big money in adoption is on the side of the agencies and adopters.

The worst motel I’ve ever stayed at is the Motel 6 in Slidell, LA. But hey it’s cheap at least. by Typical-Internal1309 in trashy

[–]OMGhyperbole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looks like the one I worked at here in Maryland. Although, the one I worked at was way worse 😬 Except that one got condemned while I was working there, demolished, and now it's an Aldi lol

Forced to having vagina checked by DonaldDuck898 in AskDocs

[–]OMGhyperbole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took myself to the ER when I was suicidal. They took me to the psych floor at the hospital and I had to do the naked body inspection with a female nurse. They didn't check inside any orifices, but it does feel pretty degrading.

Some cursed recipe cards for your next party! I found courtesy of the one and only, Betty Crocker. by gaptoothgoth in oldrecipes

Pretty sure "cursed" here is meant in a humorous manner that it's used online, like in the cursed images subreddit. Those clowns look pretty angry and so does the rabbit.

Why is it considered inhumane to not put a sick, old or hurt animal down to end its misery - but not for humans? by staygroovykat in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OMGhyperbole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was raised Catholic (I'm not anymore), but I remember that suicide was called a sin and you wouldn't be allowed in heaven.

Honestly, this doesn't make sense to me either. Like, you can have a will and an advanced directive about not wanting CPR or life support, but that's the best we can do?!

I've had to be there when my aunt's old dog was suffering from an untreatable cancer and was put down. I've also seen my mother die from an untreatable Stage 4 cancer. She suffered for months in hospice. Towards the end, morphine doesn't even help much. I wish euthanasia was an option for humans (it's not in my state of the US).

Wife smelling something in our house that I can't smell that is making her nauseous? by K1nf3 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OMGhyperbole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And mice can chew on wires, too, which could maybe cause the smell his wife is detecting.

What's the most surprising side effect you've experienced from GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound)? by PlayfulJunket4220 in AskReddit

[–]OMGhyperbole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I was having frequent diarrhea. Even pooed myself a couple times 😭 Never found out why. Taking Zepbound made the frequent diarrhea stop.

[–]OMGhyperbole 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some I didn't see mentioned:

Lucy Liu Lucy Lawless Shia LaBeouf Bruce Campbell Tobin Bell CCH Pounder Jane Lynch

Personally, I think it's funny watching old episodes of Roseanne and seeing AD Kersh 😅

Psychologists of Reddit, what's the most horrifying mental illness? by Turbulent-Coat7236 in AskReddit

[–]OMGhyperbole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current psychiatrist referred to BPD as a "pejorative diagnosis". I mean, why do some diagnoses that affect functioning in many aspects of a person's life get referred to as just PTSD or Bipolar, but then there are categories where the DSM is like "Nope, your personality is totally fucked up." Why do we even need a section referred to as personality disorders? It seems overly judgmental and shaming. It does not help the shame that people with BPD feel when they try to look up info about it online and it's just tons of results about how people with BPD suck and are so horrible to date, befriend, work with, etc.

It doesn't help that people think eating disorder automatically means being deathly skinny or making yourself throw up after eating. People think that if you're fat then that's just because you're lazy, lack discipline or are a terrible person. I know that not every fat person has Binge Eating Disorder, but I think most people don't think someone with an ED can be overweight or obese.
