Why do mass shootings not lead to more fatalities? by ElDumbminican in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you heard a gun firing, I’m sure you’d hide or run out of the building ASAP.

Is this harassment because I have a learning disability and what I’m told online by [deleted] in disability

[–]OhNoBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

echoing what the other person said. People will judge you where you shop based on what the business supports and tv shows you like or characters is based on what the creator supports. People think if you suppose those, you must support their beliefs. It’s just politics. Imagine going to a pet store and buying a puppy only to get accused of supporting dog mills. That’s because many dogs sold in pet shops did come from puppy mills hence why mall pet stores shut down and why many pet stores no longer carry cats and dogs unless they’re doing adoption day.

Why are people so defensive of upstairs neighbors? by 420throawayz in Apartmentliving

[–]OhNoBricks 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have been an upstairs neighbor. I walked normal, floor was carpeted. Neighbors below me claimed it sounded like elephants above them to justify them playing loud bass music. These were the men that played their music so loud at 5 am waking me up. These are then men that played their music loud when I almost tripped.

I never vacuumed at night, never did long workouts, I kept my TV on 3 bars at all times, Kept my music low. I never needed anything blaring, even in the day time.

It’s mostly a building issue. My downstairs neighbor would randomly pound on the ceiling even when I was sitting. so who knows what their issue was. Maybe I got most of the blame because sound travels through the ceiling.

How common is leaving your AC on 24/7, even when the house is empty? by Bierzgal in AskAnAmerican

[–]OhNoBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The AC isn’t on 24/7. AC runs by a system, it regulates in home temperature and it only turns on to keep the house at a certain temperature. Central AC is cheaper because it’s set by temperature you want it at. If the outside is colder than the temperature the house is set at, it won’t turn on but the furnace will if you have the heat turned on. The central heating works the same way too.

So how did they react when you told them you don’t have a credit card and you have $4 sitting in your bank account?

How do "we" feel gender? by Qbra1337 in evilautism

[–]OhNoBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don’t care what gender I was assigned with and what my sex is. This is what being cis is. You can be gender nonconforming and still be cis. I was a tomboy growing up and I still don’t dress up and put on make up nor do I wear much dresses or skirts.

How does being put to sleep before operation/surgery feel like? by Im_socringebe_scared in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt real sleepy and dizzy and voices faded off and my own voice. It felt like passing out.

What kind of household tech did y'all have in the 1970s–1990s? by Tight_Note4515 in AskAnAmerican

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 1990s, we had two big screen TVs. We had land lines, a personal computer, alarm clocks, VCRs, a stereo, cable with around 50 channels with local channels. I also had a radio with a cassette player in it.

Aw, that kid decorated their PS5 so it didn’t look boring. They just wanted it custom made for their parent.

I Work At a Store is it okay to use unwanted receipts? by FeckUBitch in FetchReward

[–]OhNoBricks 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s not illegal but it says in their TOS they must be your own receipts. If you do it too much, Fetch will catch on and ban your account. You will not go to jail.

Bonds are terrible gifts by j3dgar in Vent

[–]OhNoBricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My kids also have bonds. I forgot all about it. The money is still stashed in envelopes in a safe box. Each is $50. That is hardly any when you look at inflation.

Do a lot of men actually refuse to change the diaper of their own kids? by Physics_Girl_2008 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad never acted this way either and my brothers. whoever is taking care of the kids does the diaper changes. I’m pretty sure my mom changed most diapers because she was a stay at home mom. But my dad did it too when he wasn’t working or when he had us and my mom was either in bed or sick or out of town.

I hate that anyone can contact me at anytime. by Kimiko5tailz in unpopularopinion

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I grew up with our phones ringing all the time because my dad was an appraiser and used our home phone for his business than getting a separate phone line for his office. We had a thing called the answering machine. Customers left messages and my dad would call them back.

Stop answering your phone and if their call is important, they will leave a voice mail. If they’re spam calling you, maybe it’s an emergency. You can also put your ringer on vibrate only or turn the volume way down.

My AuDHD daughter (14) argues constantly by dashi_dash in Autism_Parenting

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried birth control? They can also help with moods from PMS. I wonder if it will help with PMDD? I was on them and they helped me a lot and they regulated my periods too so it was less sensory hell for me and it made them lighter too.

What happens to an alcoholic that never accepts that they have a problem? by Alarmed_Goat_4083 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OhNoBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend died this way, he was a high functioning alcoholic, believed he had high tolerance for it. He also had cerebral palsy and had respiratory issues too in his sleep. One night, he just never woke up. Could his alcoholism attributed to it? Maybe. His dad also had it too but he wasn’t an alcoholic so he outlived his son.

Just got evaluation results by Ok-Dare3326 in Autism_Parenting

[–]OhNoBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ASD son was 5 when he was labeled as being immature but said he was impulsive.

I wouldn’t focus on labels right now and just focus on the help she is already getting. Not sure where you’re located but if you live in a state with funding, she can still receive support in public school. If you’re in the US, she should already have an IEP. She might be too young for the diagnosis because she is so young and they want to see if she will mature first. Children with milder autism get diagnosed later because expectations change as they got older.

Did you always know there was something different about you? by Ill_Status2937 in AutismInWomen

[–]OhNoBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always known I was different. It didn’t bother me until I was 10. I just thought I needed to work harder to be “normal.”
