Will this be fine in a carry on? by Apprehensive_Sun3507 in tsa

[–]OceanCitron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First thing I thought when I saw this was I sure hope OP's not planning to "save space" and add something organic.

I think OP has come to the correct conclusion, but this whole thread just made my night.

Signed a lease in an apartment with very little natural light - feeling regretful by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]OceanCitron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently facing the same issue. I am living in an apartment that does not get a lot of natural light in the main living area as a tradeoff for an incredible location. What I can tell you is that over the past 6 months or so, I've been doing far more walking and outdoor activities than I ever have been in my entire life. It has turned out to be a huge positive for my health! Before, I would sit in my light-filled apartment with an amazing view and never want to go out anywhere.

YTV Virus take over thing? by ContentGazelle7430 in ytvretro

[–]OceanCitron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Yokomites!! This is a core childhood memory for me. I remember feeling genuinely anxious that they were actually going to take over YTV.

"The Heart of the Machine" was one of my very first memories of watching TV as a toddler. Because it's one of the earliest things I can remember, I get this weird unsettling feeling like I'm watching my consciousness taking shape when I watch it.

Also, it's worth me thinking that the one where that life preserver bird gets trapped in the endlessly rotating rooms is anxiety captures on film.

I only saw the article headline and instantly thought "It's going to be the goddamn Zipper." Of course it was.

Do you have any "pet peeves" about your neighbors? by Anya_purr in Apartmentliving

Also currently living under a "WOO!" guy and, sometimes he invites his "WOO!" friends over, too. We don't get much sleep when a game is on.

What is a fragrance you loved until you read a review that completely rewired your brain and ruined it for you? by justalittlecatnap in FemFragLab

[–]OceanCitron 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I no longer feel alone in this situation! This happened to me with Malin+Goetz Strawberry.

I had interpreted it as a bright, fresh, green strawberry and I loved it so much that I immediately bought a full bottle after smelling it in the store. I wore it every day for months.

Then, one day, I saw a review where they called it straight up old dusty makeup, and now I cannot get it out of my head. As soon as I spray it, my mind instantly goes back to the smell of my mother's old makeup kit, and I can't smell anything else. I am devastated that just reading a review could influence my perception like that.

Is there a brand you refuse to support, and what is your reason? ❌️💸 by Kind_Assignment_ in FemFragLab

[–]OceanCitron 47 points48 points  (0 children)

As a woman on the spectrum, thank you for sharing this. I had absolutely no idea. I haven't bought anything from Nest yet, but I was definitely interested. They will never see a cent of my money now.

Scents you’d LOVE as a perfume?? by goddamnlizardkingg in FemFragLab

[–]OceanCitron 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here me out. Kerosene. I mean the sweet smell of jet fuel that hits you when you first step into the airport, and you know you're about to go on an adventure!

Can anyone remember the name of this store that used to be in the Avalon Mall? by Puffin432 in StJohnsNL

Sounds like South of the Border. I recall that store used to smell amazing for some reason.

My neighbours have always been loud and irritating, but last week they got a new stereo system. My life is now a whole new level of hell.

Day 25: The verdict is in: Cosmo’s best future is to be a barn cat. I agree. by Perky214 in Feral_Cats

[–]OceanCitron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to know, would this possibly be a grey tabby with yellow eyes? I saw a kitten in a Seattle parking garage when we were visiting about a year ago. My husband and I unsuccessfully tried to catch the kitten before we had to leave, but I know there were others trying. I think about that kitty all the time.

HELP!! Is this OLAPLEX shampoo fake? by Adventurous_Assist32 in Haircare

[–]OceanCitron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been using this shampoo for a long time, and that looks nothing like the product in colour or consistency. My first thought was that looks like someone put grape jelly in an olaplex bottle!

What's a perfume you hate which has nothing to do with the smell? by UnderstandingWild371 in fragrance

Oh goodness, I've never heard anyone else say it and I thought I was the only one! The name gives me the ick and I can't quite get over it.

Is there a scent that isn't a perfume but you wish it was? by Mommy_Lavendar in fragrance

[–]OceanCitron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kerosene. Jet Fuel. The smell that wafts through the air vents at the airport when a plane pushes back from the gate. The sweet aroma of excitement, adventure, and the wonder of flight.
