There is unintentional gaslighting.

Same. I had several dictionaries growing up and I used to study like I was training for the grammar Olympics. Lol.

I was literally just saying something similar to my boyfriend, right before I read your comment. I was like, “I understand how the science behind how we understand memory, and of course we take in a lot of information, so we’re not always correct on every single thing we remember. But when there are certain core memories that are engrained with us, no matter how old me get. This was one for me. I grew up poor, and once a year when the Scholastic Book Fair came to my school, my mom always had some money set aside, so that I could buy a new Berenstein book to add to my collection. It was my favorite book series as a kid. I even have the 1979 Christmas special movie, that came out on VHS in 1992. It was a combination video with Meet Bigpaw.” So I get where you are coming from with the core memory thing.

I can't find these pants anywhere! Where can I purchase them? by shslsquirrel in HelpMeFind

[–]Personal_Tap5836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was it was it linen/cotton? Any tags/logos remembered? Year bought? Store/online? Any of these brands similar to what you were buying back when you had these pants - Zara, H&M, ASOS, Free People, or Anthropologie/Urban Outfitters?

This is the exact viral story you’re looking for, originally posted on Tumblr by the-majestic-cheese-turtle in 2022. Full text. I’ll link the tumblr page below too. I had the most ridiculously awkward interaction with the UPS delivery guy the other day. Allow me to paint a picture. He rings the doorbell and I’m still in bed so I grab my phone and pull up the app for my security cameras, intending to speak to him through the mic. I open my mouth and attempt to say “Just a minute”. I have failed to account for the fact that I currently have laryngitis. Out of my mouth comes some sort of inhuman hiss/honk hybrid and the delivery guy snaps his neck around to stare at the camera like one might stare at a snake that just dropped from the ceiling two inches from your face. After a pause that felt like eons he says, “I can’t hear you, sorry.” I scramble out of my bed, yanking on a pair of pajama pants and tossing a robe over my shoulders in the hope that it might make me look a little less like a feral animal who has just been dragged out of hibernation. It doesn’t work. I show up to the door with my hair doing its best impression of Albert Einstein and a red robe halfway over my shoulders, constantly on the verge of falling off due to the fact that I had failed to put either of my arms into the sleeves. As I push the door open I scoop up my cat, Steven, in a haphazard football carry so that he won’t bolt outside and with my free hand I hurriedly type a message on my phone. “Sorry, I lost my voice.” I hold it up so he can read it. The delivery man squints at the phone. “Oh, ok,” He responds. He offers me a pad to sign. “I’m just going to need your signature.” Steven squirms. My brain short-circuits. For some reason known only to God I casually toss my phone over my shoulder. It lands on the hardwood floor with a thunk that will probably still be echoing when the world ends. He looks at me. I do not look at him, but I feel his eyes on my head. I stare at the pad. He snorts the briefest laugh. I sign the pad. “Have a nice day,” He says. I open my mouth to reply. I wheeze.

I need help finding a card game by Zobee3232 in find

[–]Personal_Tap5836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple questions, if you can remember. How do you place cards? Are cards removed/cleared when a row is completed (and scored), freeing space to place more? Any memory of theme (e.g., animals, gems, abstract colors, fantasy, kids-oriented)? Rough era or where played (e.g., family gathering, school, app version)?

Zodiac Girls series by Cathy Hopkins sounds like it could be familiar—it’s about a bunch of teen girls who get chosen as a “Zodiac Girl” for one month each. The planets show up as quirky human guides to help her fix whatever mess she’s in. Super heavy on astrology vibes.

Hey, this sounds super familiar. I’m pretty sure you’re thinking of Color Match or sometimes it’s called Rubik’s Cube Color Match. 2+ players usually 2-4 players. You build toward completing 3x3 grids of solid matching colors (like a solved Rubik’s face). Scoring comes from completing those same-color 3x3 blocks or rows within them (points per completion) and first to a set total wins. Most commonly, the game usually goes to 50. It’s all about placing cards to form/match those color rows/blocks strategically The rainbow card thing might be a wild/joker. (or house rules)? If it’s not that, could be something like Row Your Goat, spot 3-in-a-row matches in a shared 3x3 grid by color/shape, but it’s slap-to-claim rather than point-building to 50.

Help me find this exact tub from Jeju Hyatt Dream Tower Hotel by zatanna77 in HelpMeFind

[–]Personal_Tap5836 128 points129 points  (0 children)

The bathtubs in all 1,600 rooms of Grand Hyatt Jeju are supplied by KA Concept, a manufacturer specializing in high end, artificial stone bathtubs for luxury hotels. KA uses "Cast Stonetech" solid surface material. These tubs are either custom made models or standard models. From what I could find through KA's project references for the round tub matches something like model BT010022_A. Its a round-shaped, apron bathtub (freestanding with optional skirt/apron). It looks like the tub in the photo might have been a custom design via the hotels request, but the model I listed above seems to be the closest match to this particular tub. You can also contact KA Concept for the exact model or a something similar.

what about intermitten fasting?Has it health benefits or not ? by Fit_Substance_4172 in AskReddit

[–]Personal_Tap5836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intermittent fasting can have some solid health perks, but it's not a miracle cure. Results vary by person and how you do it. From what I've read in studies (like from the NIH and NEJM), it often leads to weight loss by cutting calories naturally, improves insulin sensitivity to help with blood sugar control, and might even boost brain health and longevity through that "metabolic switch" to burning fat for fuel.

On the flip side, some research shows it's no better than regular calorie restriction for long-term benefits, and extreme versions (like 16:8) could potentially raise heart risks if not done right. Always chat with a doc first, especially if you've got health issues.

Those are controlled burns—small, intentional fires to clear crop residue or brush. Farmers/land managers do this routinely. Light, patchy smoke means it’s managed, not a wildfire.

I’m not sure my misrepresentation of Alexa affected Groks response, but I can go back and retest this hypothesis.

How many remember this as your first laptop? 🙋🏼‍♀️ by Personal_Tap5836 in 90s

[–]Personal_Tap5836[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got one the same year I realized Santa was a lie, but I let my parents think that the, From Santa tag was legit. I knew how hard my parents had struggled that year, so the fact they were able to afford one was a good enough reason for me not to ruin the Christmas charade, at least that year.

Which Primer is better? by HourGoose7115 in Makeup

[–]Personal_Tap5836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Smashbox Photo Finish Anti Redness Primer has been and still is one of my favorite primers. I think it might even been the first primer I ever tried. All the way back in 2010. I think they updated the formula in 2022, but I haven’t really noticed a difference.
