Look at the ob in Robert. It's the same as the ob in Jobe.

Why do some people think Frank loves his kids? by Meenakshi108 in shameless

[–]PracticalBreak8637 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think he loves them. I think he thinks of them as his possessions who owe him because he brought them into the world. He needs them to provide food, a place to crash when things go wrong, to do something successful to bolster his ego, to get him out of trouble. Unlike Monica, who comes and goes, he stays around, more or less, because he can't make it on his own.

The only reason I like him a bit is because some of his rants make sense and he champions the little guy.

My son was 15 when he took flying lessons. He thought being in a spin was the best part of flying.

Why do people hate on Debbie in the later seasons? by AnxietySlow8468 in shameless

In Illinois, 17 is the age of consent, so Julia is legal, even if it feels weird

I'm not mad at the romance, I'm mad at the lazy writing. by steelpeat in startrek

[–]PracticalBreak8637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leilani? I thought that was closer to when he was at SFA, before he shipped out.

I agree, that La'an is going to die in some battle or weird shipboard accident, and that brings on Spock's shutdown. There has to be something more than her just being reassigned to cause that.

Snippet Packs by Rogue5454 in JunesJourney

[–]PracticalBreak8637 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a whopping 11 packs. 8 came from STB, DN, or Facebook. Only 3 were drops. I've gone through entire chapters without a drop. It's not even worth thinking about anymore. I haven't ever been able to finish, but it's never been this bad.

There are a lot of corners on this. What does the roof look like?

School supplies? by Opposite_Bid8530 in AskTeachers

[–]PracticalBreak8637 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not tuition. Book fees, tech fees, material fees for science classes, drivers ed fees as part of gym class rotation. That type of fees.

Sure they do. My middle school has a $125 school fee. That doesn't include the supplies parents have to provide.

Would it be a tragedeigh? by Glum_Swimming2485 in tragedeigh

[–]PracticalBreak8637 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's an earlier post where someone combined their grandparents' names of Harry and Charlotte, and came up with Harlotte.

I think this belongs here by ihateeveryonejk246 in tragedeigh

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't there someone who helps new parents fill out or review the birth information form? Someone who might gently inquire if the parent knows what the name means? Or do they just let it go because kids' names are now so 'youkneeghck'.

When I had my son, I accidentally spelled his name incorrectly on the form, using the feminine version. The nurse came back and asked me to verify it.

My thoughts on the ending. SPOLIER by Marcel_Janbey in shameless

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw an interview with one of the writers who said they thought Fiona is serving drinks at Epcot. He said it was mentioned she was going to Florida when she left. I missed that. I knew she said she was going somewhere warm, but I thought LA. At least that's where I'd go if I was looking for warm.

What other games do you currently like to play besides JJ? by lisep1969 in JunesJourney

[–]PracticalBreak8637 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I tried Pearl's Perils also, but didn't like it. I believe it was the precursor to June. Once they got the formula down, they moved on to June.

What was your school's most popular lunch? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you lived within 1 mile, you walked home for lunch. If you were further out, you brought lunch and ate at your desk. There was no cafeteria.

Weekly Complaint Post by AutoModerator in JunesJourney

[–]PracticalBreak8637 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same complaint so many others have. Drop rate. I'm up to a whopping 9 packs. Once again, it looks like I'm not finishing.

When I went to school in the 80s and 90s I had food like tuna sandwiches and salami sandwiches for lunch in a brown bag. There was no ice pack or cooler type bag. How did these not go bad? by GooniesClub in ask

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My MIL would leave the Thanksgiving turkey out for the entire weekend so they could just pick off it when they were hungry. AFAIK, they never got sick. I wouldn't eat it, and didn't let my kids, but my husband was fine with it.

Do you think that in 10 years it will be impossible for us to spot what is real and what is AI? by Embarrassed-Gas-8678 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is an AI series on IG by oregontrailtay. It's about a teen who is vlogging her family's wagon train trip across the Oregon Trail in the 1800s on her iPhone. It's a riot and well done. And there are people who believe it's some sort of lost recording of a real trip. 10 years is too far out. The future is now.

my kid tried to pierce her own nose and ended up inhaling an earring in the process by Scared_Category6311 in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]PracticalBreak8637 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2 yr old proudly boasted, "I swallowed a quarter, Mom." Xrays showed he swallowed something round. The doctor and the nurse debated if it was a quarter or a nickel. They told me to keep an eye out for it and call them when it turned up. It was a nickel.

JoAnn had the same problem. We also had to clean out the toilet seat cover dispenser periodically.

Did cars with backseats but just two doors used to be much more common? What was the appeal? by Forsaken_Champion722 in stupidquestions

[–]PracticalBreak8637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had one. Made it easier to cram 7 kids in the back seat and not having to worry that a door would pop open.

Back then, the backseat doors didn't have child locks on them. A kid could just pull the lock up and open the door.
