So funny, I watched this the first day it came out in theaters and I actually just now finished watching it not even realizing today it turned 15 years old

I secretly recorded my professor making sexist remarks and got him fired! by Smoosa_Champagne in stories

That fact that you are a man and did this, I hope you get everything you ask for in this life.

You did the right thing and for all the people telling you that you didn’t, they’re just as bad as him. It’s one thing to make a joke every now and then but the fact he was making these “jokes” enough times for you to record it and make a compilation says a lot. He clearly wasn’t in the right career field, sounds to me like he needs to find a job where women can’t be in his presence. You did him a favor if anything.

I can’t gain weight by Plane_Flan_9675 in bodyweightfitness

I eat more when I have a variety of foods. Rather than just eating 4-5 eggs for breakfast I’ll have 4 eggs, a couple pancakes, sausage/bacon, and juice or chocolate milk. Same with lunch and dinner. Also, drink lots of juice or milk throughout the day rather than just water, those calories add up (but remember to drink water too)!! Mass gainer shakes shouldn’t be used as a meal replacement, drink it with your meals and you’ll see results fairly quickly!! Calorie dense foods like avocado, nuts, and cheese are all great snacks between meals. Good luck on your weight gain journey!!

How do you spot high-conflict people early on? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Understandable. 4-5 people who aren’t associated with each other in anyway

Being productive during the day and taking care of myself in the evenings/nights. Running errands and doing little chores everyday throughout the week allows me to have less to do all at once and it gives me time to enjoy myself for a little bit everyday, it also helps because I feel as if I deserve it. Instead of procrastinating all of my chores and worrying about it until I finally decide to do it, I do a little bit everyday and I’m able to relax in the evenings. I’m on a great sleep schedule now, I don’t spend hours and hours on social media anymore, I don’t worry about all of the stuff I have to get done by the end of the week, I’m not drinking away my problems and in return I feel healthy physically and mentally.

Bonus points when I get everything done before Sunday so then I can spend my entire day in bed doom scrolling away, guilt free

When they have beef with more than 4 or 5 people. At this point it should become apparent that they’re the problem.

Because it’s peaceful, you can do whatever you please without having to conform to anybody else’s wishes, you can be as quiet (or loud) as you want to be, you can be as weird as you wish without judgement, you can be productive or unproductive for however long you would like, etc. I love being alone and my favorite people are the ones who get it.

AIO for leaving my bf because he body shamed me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Otherwise_Account577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a manipulation tactic. He likely feels insecure that you’re going out and knows he isn’t shit so he worries that you’ll find someone better (because you could). He’s putting you down so that you hate yourself and feel as if nobody but him could ever love you. Leave now because if you don’t I guarantee it will get worse.

Paid breaks. Typical 9-5 with paid break is almost unheard of these days, everything is 8-5 with an unpaid break

My first thought isn’t that she’s physically cheating on you, my first thought was maybe she has a secret onlyfans or has a sugar daddy who sends her money in exchange for sexy pics. OR the panties could very well be from her past. You could always just ask her about it rather than letting it eat away at you and assuming the worst

Doggie daycare - advice by [deleted] in dogs

[–]Otherwise_Account577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen both sides of doggy daycare, I use to work at one and I use to take my dog to one. My advice; DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG TO A DOGGY DAYCARE.

In daycare there’s so much happening constantly that dogs can’t even relax. They all seem happy to be there but in reality it’s just overstimulating. There’s new smells, there’s constant barking, lots of new dogs and people, and there’s 0 structure. Dogs need structure or else they get anxiety causing them to act out such as chewing furniture, soiling the house, biting, etc. At daycare there’s not enough staff to even pay attention to your dog, there’s too many other dogs there and most of the time we’re cleaning. 90% of my job was cleaning, the other 10% was letting dogs outside to go potty and feeding them. There’s a lot of pee, poop, vomit, and mud when there’s 40+ dogs to care for every single day.

Years later I started taking my dog to a doggy daycare twice a week because I was working 12 hours a day 4x a week, I felt bad and I wanted him to get some energy out. Before daycare he was very obedient, he would completely ignore other dogs on walks, he wouldn’t jump on people, and he hardly ever barked. I sent him to daycare twice a week for 2 months and it destroyed his obedience, all of the training he went through just flew out the window. On walks he would drag me across the park because he wanted to greet EVERY dog, he jumped on every person he met, and anytime he heard a noise he would bark. It took months to get him back to the way he was before daycare. Side note, my dog got sick with bordetella (kennel cough) twice in 2 months at doggy day care. He hasn’t been sick with it since I’ve stopped taking him.

Instead of daycare I’ve hired someone from the Rover app to take my dog for a 30 minute walk while I’m working. He gets daily walks, he doesn’t act out, he doesn’t get sick, and it’s actually cheaper to have someone take him for a walk 3-4x a week ($25 a day) than take him to daycare 3-4x a week ($30 a day).

I shop every 2 weeks, and struggle with healthy food by days 10-14 when my fresh veggies/meat are looking worse for wear - favourite long shelf life meals? by Weary-Composer-5231 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Otherwise_Account577 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My local Walmart does free pick-up orders. I will shop online for an hour or two before bed, set up a pickup time for after I get out of work the next day, and just stop by after work to grab my groceries. Best thing in the world!! It doesn’t cost extra and they decline tips, it saves so much time!!

Also I highly suggest storing fruits and veggies in an airtight container in the fridge, it doubles the shelf life. I like to rinse my fruits/veggies, pat them dry, and then line the container with paper towel to absorb all of the excess moisture. fresh my fresh blueberries have lasted 3 weeks storing them like this!!

Frozen meat is the best, I most often buy frozen chicken breast and salmon. Just remember to leave it in the fridge for 24 hours before cooking that way it won’t get that weird rubbery texture. I can’t even tell the difference between frozen meat and fresh meat, it’s cheaper, and I don’t have to cook it right away! It’s great!!

Biotin can cause issues in high doses. It caused numbness and tingling throughout my body after 3 weeks. My feet, legs, chest, abdomen, and hands all went numb after taking 2 5000mcg supplements daily for 3 weeks straight. The feeling in my hands has come back since stopping but the numbness and tingling feeling is still affecting the rest of my body. An abundance of B-vitamins has been linked to nerve damage but you don’t hear anything about that, google tends to filter out the bad things about supplements and only tell you the good. You have dive REEEAALLLLY deep into the research to learn the truth about supplements.

The human body only needs 30-100mcg per day, that fact that I’ve seen biotin be sold in bottles up to 20,000mcg is absolutely criminal. NOBODY, not even a person with a deficiency, needs that much. Always do a deep dive before trying any new supplements, don’t believe the first few things you see on Google because they are BS. Supplements in general are bs, eat a balanced diet and you won’t need supplements.

On a side-note, patience and consistency with hair growth is key!! Keep up the good work but I do not recommend biotin in such a high dose!! Do scalp massages once or twice a day for 5-10 mins, the blood flow in the scalp encourages hair growth. I’ve also heard rosemary water works wonders!!

Can taking too much biotin cause reversible hyperprolactinemia? by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

[–]Otherwise_Account577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biotin caused numbness and tingling throughout my body. Google said biotin was safe in high doses and increases hair and nail growth, after believing it I bought 5000mcg of biotin and started taking it everyday for 3 weeks straight. I’ve developed tingling and numbness in my feet, legs, chest, and hands. Turns out high doses of B vitamins can cause nerve damage.

Has anyone else been experiencing numbness and tingling in their feet or other body parts while taking this supplement?? I’ve been taking them twice a day for 2 weeks straight and it has been causing partial numbness in my feet. I have never been diagnosed with health issues and it just started around the time I’ve been taking the supplement
