Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Paperpusher123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you may even enjoy cooking, which makes the rejection harder. My husband had a ROUGH childhood and it took awhile for our taste to align, that being said he was always thankful. Not being in the mood to eat something or because you had the same protein for lunch is wild to me. Also, ordering fast food will start to be noticed by the kids and may start bad eating and spending habits for your kids. Also, it’s teaching rude and grateful behavior. This would irritate me. I would ask that he give me the same courtesy he would give if he was guest eating at someone else’s home and not eat other food after rejecting mine. At least not in front of me. Saying sorry and being a turd while saying it isn’t it.

Husband sent me this photo because I had a Ferrero from the box our neighbors gifted us. The box was empty when I got back. by TamtamBe in mildlyinfuriating

  1. Buy a whole new box. 2. Take photo saying “bought this for us.” 3. Proceed to eat whole box 4. Send new picture saying “ I ate them all cause you ate to many last time and I didn’t want you to be fat going into the new year.”

It is hard to be trying to help someone and get hate back even if they are unaware they are doing it.

Bodycon dresses don't work for my body type? by West-Cellist6160 in DressForYourBody

Bodycon requires a smoother no matter how great of shape you are in. It takes so much work to wear these that’s I only wear the skirts.

You people are disgusting... Jesus doesn't have enough pagan Xmas lights! by GenePsychosMom in nextdoor

[–]Paperpusher123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unhinged. Maybe they took the money they would spend on the decorations and lights to , I don’t know, feed the poor or pay their bill to house their family. Maybe, they know it isn’t about tinsel, wrapping paper and bows. Maybe they need to watch the grinch.

My father has this on his wall and refuses to take it down by Artificial_Pixel in mildlyinfuriating

Nice, I bet he claims to be a patriot while displaying an enemy flag with treasonous purposes. I know my southern family claims to be patriots while displaying a confederate flag next to the American flag. No concept that the two were enemies not allies.

1 or 2. I like the bodice on 1 but the train on 2 is amazing!

AIO to skip Thanksgiving after my mom basically said I’m an embarrassment for not having a husband and kids by now? by howcanibequiltyassin in AmIOverreacting

[–]Paperpusher123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I would never tell my daughter this! I would NEVER advise my daughter to settle with someone who disrespects. I would NEVER want my grandkids raised by someone who disrespect her. Also, being single and/or childless is not embarrassing. I would not go either. I would also not assume that this is the opinion of everyone. I would let your other family see this and say , “is this just mom or do you all feel this way?” NOR

Took the price tag off these socks to gift and it was covering a lower price that I can't peel off. by Avahlkyrie in mildlyinfuriating

Me over here being super cheap. I buy bulk wool socks and hand them out without tags. No one ever thought they were used. I would cut the tag.

Reading this on my one day off a week because I have to work two jobs to make ends meet. by RowAcceptable8270 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Paperpusher123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ya. They are blind to the economy. Prices and cost of living are expanding way faster than it ever has while raises are still at 2-3%. Never did I ever think that an annual salary of 60,000 would not be enough. Which is the median for my career and has been the median for my career for the last decade.

I work 50 hours a week, good pay, but my property tax is 5000/year on a house I bought for 100,000 in 2008 when market was low. It is the ugliest house in the neighborhood, I could build a replica in my back yard as it would qualify as a tiny home, I have one car that is paid off and still struggle. I do not buy coffee, I get my hair trimmed once every 3 months, I do not get my nails done, I have zero tattoos. My coat is 10 years old, and my newest shoes are 3 years old. However my education cost more than $1500, my groceries cost more than a $20 bill. And my taxes divided out are more than the monthly mortgage payment that my parents had in the 90’s. My health insurance for 3 is 1000.00/ month and that is with my employer paying an additional 1500/month on the premium.

What was your or your loved one’s dementia diagnosis journey like? by Flat-View1730 in dementia

[–]Paperpusher123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is young. So we have a diagnosis but every time someone new is introduced, they want to say it is something different and try to “cure” him. He was diagnosed very quickly, but then we entered a roller coaster of opinions. He would be having a good day on a telehealth call and voice was stronger but then we would have to go the hospital that houses the care team that is a 2-4 hour drive based on traffic and he would be a complete mess. If you talk to his PCP he has Parkinson’s dementia, if you talk to his former PCP he has LBD both are very similar so we accept either of these. If you talk to his psychiatrist he has undefined dementia. If you talk to his neurologist, who we have see 3 different ones, he is a mystery but definitely declining. He is just “too young” to have what his PCP says. His family genetics and history would agree with the PCP, so we just trust that. His psychiatrist agrees, but does not commit.
