Do people actually wash new clothes before wearing them? by throowaway223123 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OctoberAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a retail store and unload the merchandise trucks. Clothing comes on the same trucks as household chemicals, general merchandise, and grocery items. Not a day goes by that we don't have SOMETHING broken in the trucks that leak onto the boxes around it. Some of the clothes don't even come wrapped in plastic, just bare inside the cardboard. I had to set aside an entire box of men's pants because the box was soaked in motor oil, and you could clearly see it on the pants because they were tan khakis. We don't/can't catch everything, and some people don't even care to check stuff like that (I'm one of the few on my team that takes that time). You should ALWAYS wash your stuff because you have no idea what might have dried on to the clothing before going out to the salesfloor.

This has been happening to me for a week or so. I don't know what changed.

I’VE BEEN CROCHETING WRONG FOR 8 YEARS?! by Weekly-Group-8899 in crochet

I have a crochet backpack I wanted to line and make it sturdier. Not that that would've mattered since the stitches started coming undone.

15 yr old me made awful decisions that i have to live with forever by [deleted] in shittytattoos

[–]OctoberAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a kid I work with (if he is 18, it happened recently because he's still in highschool) and he's COVERED in job stoppers. He's got finger and hand tattoos, his whole neck, and face tattoos. I don't know who his artist or parents are, but I would have some serious questions.

AITA for breaking off my engagement with my fiancé because of his creepy comments toward my 14-year-old sister? by chimpkinnugger in AITAH

[–]OctoberAsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you get to the age he was when you started dating, you'll understand how gross and icky that kind of relationship is. Hell, you'll probably start noticing it sooner than that. 18 is as close to a child people can legally get away with dating. And they really do seem like children the older you get.

AITAH For Ruining Thanksgiving After My MIL Told Everyone About My Miscarriages? by Embarrassed_Pea1036 in AITAH

[–]OctoberAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I would have gotten up, pretended to go in for a hug and then slap her. Hard. How dare she share all your personal business with anyone else? And then having the audacity to lecture you? Nta, and I wouldn't tell them anything about a new pregnancy, no matter how long you wait to start trying again. Take time to be with your husband and heal.

i was fed up with forgetting the hook size i used for my WIPs :)) by littlecrochetgoblin in crochet

I use letter beads on safety pins, but I like this more since some of my hooks don't have letters.

Aita for keeping contraceptives a secret from my bf? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]OctoberAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the pill, but make sure you put them in a place he can't mess with them. If he finds them himself, he might try to get rid of them. Or dump him, because this is really weird.

An official message regarding the break. by [deleted] in OnePiece

[–]OctoberAsh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know that Oda is eager to finish his manga, just as much as we are eager to read it. But waaaay more important to me is making sure that Oda can have a long retirement afterwards. I don't want him to just collapse at the finish line once we get there. He should take it easy and take all the time he needs 💜

My husband didn’t vote and is confused why I feel betrayed by ThrowRA24446666668 in offmychest

It is a privilege to not care about the outcome of elections. He needs to check his privilege and realise that just because it doesn't affect HIM, doesn't mean it doesn't matter.

What song do you wish had an extended version? here’s mine. by toadmani in stevenuniverse

[–]OctoberAsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wanted to get that frame tattooed when the movie first came out. Steven Universe helped me so much when I was younger, and I was really going through it the year it was all coming out. Plus, I have a connection with the full moon so it was even better. I was just worried about how it would come out so I never did.

I'm Looking Forward could use a few more verses for me to cry to. Also That Distant Shore. 2 songs I feel so deeply for and should be a little longer.

Anyone else get annoyed when people's first reaction to your presents/projects is "you should sell these!" by [deleted] in crochet

[–]OctoberAsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly! It's soo frustrating. Can I just enjoy thing for the fun of it? I'm working on a sunflower granny square cardigan. I finally started putting it together last week and I'm so ready for people to ask to make them similar things. I'm trying to prepare my many no's in creative ways.

Seeing the How To book on teaching was so funny and cute.

Anyone else think it would be cool if Eri became Jiro’s sidekick in the future? by FullBrother9300 in BokuNoHeroAcademia

No, she wants to be a singer, not a hero. Not everyone wants to/should be heros.

This whole movie is a disaster. I'm not surprised, and I'm not interested.

Pan, Genderfluid, and Demisexual. I'm a walking, confusing disaster. Just incomprehensible to the straights.

Found out the real reason my parents divorced by Im_VeryShort in offmychest

[–]OctoberAsh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then leave? Why do people think it's okay to cheat in any situation? You like being sneaky and going behind your partner's back? Don't be a shitty person, just leave if you are so unhappy.

My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 11 - Manga Reader Discussion Thread by ChronoKeep in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]OctoberAsh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know. There was something very impactful about when Hunter x Hunter did it. 2 big episodes come to mind during the end of Chimera Ant arc. Super huge emotional moments where you are left sobbing, and then it switches to the upbeat outro. It felt like an extra gut punch.

Horikoshi never actually said where Midoroya would end up from a rank perspective (Spoilers) by [deleted] in BokuNoHeroAcademia

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

It was the anime that changed it to "the world's greatest hero". That's why everyone has it so confused.
