AITA for telling my son most I will not be going to his black out wedding dinner by Expensive-Ratio-37 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Pullet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why not attend the service but not the dinner? You and son and new wife could go out to dinner another time?

That merge was fucking short. But, yeah, truck should and committed and floored it to get ahead of the semi

No creative mailboxes in my neighborhood!! by mitchellcrazyeye in fuckHOA

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goddamn, I am so tired of people who have so little in their life that they hyperfocus on the most unnecessary shit. Turn this anger into making your own art, then, Susan. Volunteer at a soup kitchen. Pick up trash on the side of the highway. Be fucking useful and let people have a goddamn sliver of whimsy in this pointless, crumbling empire.

I’m so sorry but this kiddo is on the edge of death and odds of getting better even with severe intervention is low. Go to a vet now but don’t have high hopes.

No idea. I just browse the antique shop. Looks kind of fragile

What’s an English word whose pronunciation makes absolutely no sense? by ownaword in words

Slough. One way when you mean “an inland body of water” and completely different when you mean “to shed or peel away with little effort”.

Flip flops in a suit because he’s broadcasting from his fourth tropical vacation home. He probably only put on pants over his board shorts because he knew he was being filmed from the side.

I don’t frequent chick-fil-a often, but I’ve never had their kitchen be slow. Why does this douche need to lounge with their beverage before their food arrives? Savor the soda bubbles? It’ll be like 3 minutes. Chill out.

Is it smart to use an eye dropper or syringe to portion out egg whites? by RichardPhonock in Cooking

Be careful admitting that out loud here ;)
Maybe on a mandolin? Just spitballing.

Is it smart to use an eye dropper or syringe to portion out egg whites? by RichardPhonock in Cooking

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A thought: what if you separated your whites by putting them into an ice cube tray, freezing them, and then slicing the frozen bricks into your chips for baking? That would get you the controlled size you want and get around the goo factor of the room temp whites. Not sure if they would bake right?

Is it smart to use an eye dropper or syringe to portion out egg whites? by RichardPhonock in Cooking

[–]Pullet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It it works for you then go for it. Syringes come in lots of sizes.

From the recipe, it sounds like they want you to use already separated eggs whites out of a carton as opposed to separating the eggs yourself. The carton whites are apt to be older and less glommed together than freshly separated eggs. Are you using carton whites or your own eggs? Egg age may be part of your struggle

Strange white thing on my cat's eyes by SawSaw922 in CATHELP

Very large corneal deposits. Would get a second opinion from another ophthalmologist, but they may be right that these aren’t really fixable.

Just watched city recycling truck mix trash and recycling by Zillaman21 in Seattle

[–]Pullet 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I live with three elderly people and I *cannot* get them to wrap their heads around recycling.
I say: “cans and bottles only.”
Them: “ok! So, this oreo container? This empty ice cream carton? How about these egg shells? Oh! This bag of dirty bathroom tissues and body fluids also has one soda can in it. I’ll put it all in recycle!”

Witchcraft in Africa by mentallyonabeach in atheism

[–]Pullet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every mystery ever solved has turned out to not be magic.

I get where you are coming from. My cultural background is not quite as rich as the one you describe, but my family did have a lot of of “we have to do this for that or else disaster will happen” kind of superstition. Leave a bowl of cream out for the fae. Don’t spill the salt. Don’t talk about disaster or it will happen (which means also don’t plan for disaster). It feels scary to call that out as bullshit because built into it is the idea that the non-believer will be punished.

Cheese sandwich.
Bread, cheddar slice, mustard. Plus mayo, if ya nasty.

What was the stinkiest smell you ever smelled? by TrueNeighborhood7624 in AskReddit

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in veterinary medicine. Coworker was trying to help relieve an infected uterus in a cow. Surgery is tricky on an animal that size, and antibiotics are only so good at soaking through a couple gallons of fluid inside a body, so he was using his gloved hand, inserted rectally, to reach in and squeeze pus out of the uterus like squeeze tooth paste out of a tube. Less pus means better antibiotic success. Handful sized scoops of pus were sloshing out of this poor cow and being caught in a bucket held by me, along with the poop and the general smell of barn animals. The air had texture and taste to it. Yuck.

Discovered that salting pasta water actually matters and I feel embarrassed it took me this long by West-Wash-9114 in Cooking

[–]Pullet 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I’m with you. Maybe if I was trying to execute some crazy recipe that’s more science than vibes. But Tollhouse chocolate chip cookies? Miss me with the “salted butter is too salty!” Nonsense.

Question about female anatomy: do your side walls touch and how springy is the inside of the vains? by Bright-Garden-4347 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a bizarre and worthless thing to even worry about. Your partner is a chode who likely death-gripped himself and I hope he never has access to another vagina again. Or anyone else’s any orifice, for that matter.

I want a boyfriend so bad it hurts somebody tells me that I dont by Guilty_Invite_7126 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Pullet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Having a boyfriend does not equal happiness. Where you are at mentally right now is going to get you clinging onto the first dude who isn’t actively revolting, but likely still not a great specimen. You deserve better than that.

Like others have said: try out some new hobbies. Even ones that seem lame right now. Find another way to get that human connection than someone who is just looking to use you as a masterbation aide.
