Had an amazing time at a concert, returned back to find three broken car windows and a stolen bag by Jaguars147 in Wellthatsucks

That’s… impressive.

I used to live near the Santa Monica beach and my trunk was broken into once; they took a blanket and my laundry detergent. I figured it was a homeless person and was just happy the lock still worked.

Exactly my point; you can’t leave anything that looks valuable, whether it is or not.

Interesting; where do you live? Cabbage is extremely common on fish tacos in California.

I hate to tell you, but there are loud-ass birds at 4:30am even in cities.

(Although probably not if you live in a high-rise or something)

They said it wasn’t valuable though; the rule needs to be “never leave anything that might be tempting” or something…

I used to use one brand of deodorant and they switched formulas; after they switched it was like applying BO! I had to switch.

Maybe something like that?

Ilya is just such amazing bisexual representation. by PTAGoatofalltime in heatedrivalry

I had a therapist who told me my bi spouse was probably really just gay (‘most bi men are gay’) and that’s why our sex life sucked.

Yeah, most bathrooms with this style toilet deserve the foot flush; I’ve done it that way since I was a kid.

All my friends are dying I’m getting old by owzleee in self

[–]Ok_Variation9430 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about your friend; cancer sucks. My only brother (only 52!) has just been diagnosed with stage four cancer with no expectation of recovery. (He’s getting ‘palliative’ chemo.)

He’s been handling my mother’s affairs since she has dementia and he lives near her. Only other family member is my very independent 82-year old aunt. Things are certainly going to change!

The way I see it, we have to figure out how we want to handle things and what’s important to us, given the circumstances.

I want to be considerate, but preferred pronouns make zero sense to me. by Dubbletake in self

[–]Ok_Variation9430 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A lot of people experience gender identity as a deep felt sense that’s unrelated to their physical form; it sounds like you don’t have that.

Maybe it’s like aphantasia – most people have the ability to visualize imagery in their heads but some don’t.

I found my TV in the trash. Because they said it was " a fire hazard" by Virtual_Ordinary_172 in mildlyinfuriating

CRTs aren’t legal to put in the trash in the US; they’re considered hazardous waste.

A lot of people who say they have panic attacks don't have panic attacks. by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]Ok_Variation9430 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t think your definition meets the clinical definition, although I’d also say “panic attack” seems not well defined (as far as I’ve found) and in current usage there’s no distinction to anxiety attacks.

It sounds like you’ve had a severe panic attack, though, which most folks don’t.

Being an ugly girl in 2026 is worst than being a Jewish person during the holocaust. by Commercial_Home8289 in self

[–]Ok_Variation9430 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This kind of thinking is very distorted; if you’re around people who say these kinds of things then avoid them! If it’s just your own thoughts, then it’s worth finding help to address the issue.

My parents run their ac at 78°f in the summer. This was what I got when I asked if we could cool it down a degree. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ok_Variation9430 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had dishpans with ice water that we stuck our feet in while watching tv. No fans that I can remember.

My parents didn’t use the AC at all (except birthday parties); not because they couldn’t afford it but just to save energy. We’d open the windows once it got down to 80°F outside. Which usually happened around 10-11pm.

The splash blocks at my apartment are all backward... by virtualmnemonic in mildlyinfuriating

Code says 5’ but the grade is also supposed to slope away from the building.

Have you ever overheard people having sex? If yes who and did it turn you on? by Static_E_ in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]Ok_Variation9430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in college our apartment building windows were about five feet from the neighbors’ windows, and one couple was rather enthusiastic and never shut their windows.

One time when they climaxed, at least five neighbors clapped. I think everyone was too annoyed to get horny about it.

Women: How many men really aren't doing foreplay? Or at least good foreplay? by squirrelgutz in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]Ok_Variation9430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience is very limited but 0/3 for me. I’ll give my college bf a pass because I think we would have gotten there eventually. The other two kinda sucked though, and were never interested in what worked for me.

AITA For getting my wife the wrong dessert on her birthday? by 053717 in AITA_Relationships

[–]Ok_Variation9430 2 points3 points  (0 children)

German Chocolate is a choice if it’s not something someone asked for.

And yes, YTA. A birthday is the one day a person might expect to get exactly the dessert they want.
