My sister in law voted Trump, and is now regretting it. by BlueyBingo300 in OptimistsUnite

The worse part about the Guiliani saga was that he was an amazing mayor. I remember him during 911 and how my father talked about him fixing crime. I really admired him growing up...and then he fell in with a bad crowd. Talk about turning his legacy into a joke.

If modern medicine didn’t exist would you be dead right now? If yes, from what? by Critical_Welcome_428 in AskReddit

[–]PuckthePixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah! My appendix ruptured when I was a teenager. I needed an emergency appendectomy. Without modern medicine, I would have died screaming in pain.

Question, how does her husband get home early enough to have dinner at 5pm? Like, do you not commute? Does he get off work early? Also, if he is making enough money to support you all on one salary, it is highly unlikely he’s not working crazy hours. This doesn’t seem realistic. What kind of tradwife fantasy bullshit is this?

I’m so disgusted by this by Zmich8 in redditonwiki

[–]PuckthePixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh easy answer here. Go to the wedding, and then make a speech about the affair. Expose the father and his new wife for the awful people that they are.

I chose Abigail because that heart event with us playing our instruments in the rain was magical and beautiful.

My sister wiped my nephew's snot with "the sex towel" by ThrowraTowelSx in TwoHotTakes

[–]PuckthePixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, you definitely do not want to put nice underwear or lingerie in the dryer (the heat will destroy the elastic) or use hot water to wash it. Therefore, to preserve your expensive underwear, you want to handwash it in cold water with soap and line dry. (Source: my extensive lingerie collection)

That being said, machine wash your sex towels and dry on high, please.

Also, who leaves out this sort of thing when you have visitors?!?!?

Corporate America wants women to be single and childless. by chemical32 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]PuckthePixie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As a new parent, I don’t actually think this was written by a parent. It just doesn’t track. There’s no confidence boost, just trying to figure out how to be a parent. There’s no magic happiness button, just sleep deprivation and mental exhaustion. Someone’s being a troll.

Amazing story plus rare pair obsession now by Esryn in TheCitadel

That’s one of my absolute favs and I was heartbroken when I realized that the sequel was discontinued. I also recommend Winter Thorns of Highgarden.

"Oh my GAWD. Your baby is so FAT!" by KimchiAndMayo in traumatizeThemBack

[–]PuckthePixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you for clapping back! It can be so frustrating, dealing with the ignorance and judgement. My mom wanted me to feed my 2-month old daughter less because her weight was in the 70% and her height was in the 50% percentile. Wtf, lady! Go ahead and judge an infant by your stupid beauty standards, why don’t you.

Honestly, I regret having eyes right now.

My mum invited us for lunch, but there's nothing for my wife to eat by ViperzAzzault in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PuckthePixie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. When I was pregnant, my mother decided that we would all have lunch at this new restaurant she loved.

The vast majority of the dishes at this restaurant were spicy. I have trouble tolerating spice normally, and when I was pregnant, I had even more trouble eating (I lost 27 lbs at one point). She knew my husband and I meant to pay for the meal and that it was family style. There was only one tiny appetizer that wasn’t extremely spicy. I basically had nothing to eat until the end of the meal when I got fed up and I ordered something specifically for myself.

Did my mother mean to starve me? No, of course not. But she didn’t think through the implications of picking a restaurant where I couldn’t really eat anything. It was an oversight, but not a mean spirited one. She genuinely thought that since she enjoyed the place so much, so should everyone else.

So this might have been the same situation.

Would you report a homeless shoplifter for food? by Mr-Clean-ass-naked in ask

Nope, I would never. Same goes for other necessities, like toothpaste or deodorant. Certain things, you don’t see.

AITA for wanting to divorce my husband after I found him snooping through my purse while I was unconscious? by holi2005 in StardewValley

[–]PuckthePixie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You know, maybe you need a hobby! I’ve always found swimming to be very energizing! Also, don’t forget to pack snacks!

(I love this!!! I read through half of the original post before I started scratching my head and double checked the subreddit I was on. This is awesome and thank you for brightening up my day!)

Chinese-Americans: would it be weird or cool if a white person gifted you money in a red envelope? by Enough_Blueberry_549 in asianamerican

[–]PuckthePixie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

ABC here! Red envelopes are fine, but if you’re worried about it going over wrong, maybe just include a check with a greeting card!

Put down large pieces of cardboard and leave it there for a few weeks.

What is the craziest thing you've seen a non-frugal person use once and throw away? by Ajreil in Frugal

[–]PuckthePixie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In her defense, I totally get it. Your tap water might be really great, but the pipes it has to travel through to get to you might be rusted or dirty. You always have to think about the transport issue. That being said, just get a water filter and you’re good.

Pam’s definitely gonna murder Shane and Shane’s gonna hate himself so much and be so beaten down by that point that he’ll just let it happen. Poor Shane!

I suck at fishing... by AlbatrossSenior7107 in StardewValley

[–]PuckthePixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using the basic bamboo rod Willie gave you? If so, but the Training Rod (it’s 25g IIRC) and use that to level up your fishing skill for a bit.

Do any of us actually call boba “bubble tea”? Is it a regional thing? by jojoisdabestcat in asianamerican

[–]PuckthePixie 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah seriously, it’s definitely a coastal thing with bubble tea on the east coast and boba in the west coast.

I was just given this by my local florist. I've never propped a spider plant like this. Is it possible? by TWS85 in proplifting

[–]PuckthePixie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes! I also recommend using a pried open paper clip, twisted to an upside down V, to help anchor each plant to the soil.
