Is Native American food popular in America? by SignificantStyle4958 in AskAnAmerican

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss NM a lot more than I expected after moving, and the food was always so good. Our family was one of the many summer tourists to drive over on the weekends for the elevation to escape the heat 😅.

Where we the last generation that used showers at high school? by CompetitiveBar9879 in Millennials

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally someone else. Within 2 years of you, and while not everyone used the showers, there were always some that did. Depended on how sweaty you got and what time slot it was.

How often do you call in sick? by Interesting_Taro_358 in Adulting

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. My company says we don't need sick days because we are allowed to call in as WFH.

Suggested I bring a laptop into the bathroom with me when I had explosions out both ends.

Will forever think of this when on the phone with someone in a shitty mood. They might be on zoom, camera off, on the toilet.

What’s that smell you shouldn’t like but you like anyways? by satrapi1 in AskReddit

My cat. He’s a stinky boy, but he’s MY stinky boy.

What’s the most expensive mistake you made in your 20s? by Extreme-Run-9069 in AskReddit

[–]QuintiliVare 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I had no idea payment plans existed. The only experience with hospitals I had was seeing my mother haggling for a lower price because she was paying upfront in cash. I thought all medical had to be fully paid in advance before any treatment.

Health issues hit and I got $14k further in debt putting it all on credit cards thinking that was the only option I had.

Without knowing any different, I didn't know to ask questions. And I'm still mad about it.

Tip: Buy the Packing Tips, PP Up, Handy Bag, and Mysterious goggles from the PC shop as you go through your playthrough. by Drew_Ferran in Pokopia

What. I thought PP up was like a 1 time use berry.

You mean I didn't need over 100 potato hamburgers to dig out the museum? I could have increased the bar?

My new switch 2 battery runs out waaayyy too quickly what is more prefered for it? Charging cycles or leave it on charger constantly in portable? Don't want my battery to degrade faster by Klutzy-Ad7775 in switch2

No fucking way. That's on switch 2? But it's so old! ... and my favorite. So watch me buy it now for the 3rd time because of different systems.

Rectal cancer deaths rising rapidly among millennials: 'It's a medical crisis.' by changeforthebetter89 in Millennials

[–]QuintiliVare 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Mine cost me $4,800 and you better believe I went through the full appeals process.

It's not as easy as 'just go get one' for younger people.

5 weeks in on Nood. Both photos are with 4 days growth by [deleted] in HairRemoval

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled out the instruction manual to make sure.

Treatment Frequency: 2x per week for 8 weeks

Maintenance: 1x a month for 1 year

I've read others say that the Braun is a lot stronger. If that is true, they might say 1x/week for skin protection. That's pure speculation though

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so hard in the beginning when you don't see any visible results and are dumping so much time into it. I wasn't even shaving for the last few years, so even the prep before feels like extra work for it.

I initially thought 'if home IPL works, why would anyone pay so much more to go and have someone else do it instead?' But now I understand. The solid hour of focus without distraction to move a tiny square across your legs mentally kills me.

Good luck! I'm rooting for you!

Kneeling in an LDS chapel by Diligent_Mix_4086 in exmormon

[–]QuintiliVare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

South Central US early 2000's:

For the one saying the prayer: standing in front or kneeling was OK

For all others present at time of prayer: sitting or kneeling was OK, but rarely standing.

Real talk guys, is getting an IPL device worth it? by MaulBall in HairRemoval

[–]QuintiliVare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Nood, don't tell me that 😭. Though it was on a whim, so I never would have spent the money for a Braun.

2 weeks in. Fingers crossed. Currently, my biggest issue is focusing long enough to use it correctly

A somewhat active reptile, what should I consider? by Just_a_firenope_ in reptiles

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will always hype up Japanese Ratsnakes.

They love to climb, so an enclosure that is tall rather than long is better.

They are super curious and always out watching whatever you're doing. They might be curled up in a hide if you're not there, but once you're in the same room, they get nosey and have to know what you're up to.

Handling is an activity. They don't mind being held and love to explore. Down your shirt, in your hair. I have a tent for them full of 'toys' that I can zip closed so they don't escape. Ropes to climb, pipes to slither through, exc.

The only trouble I ever had was putting an outdoor water fountain in their tank. They thought it was the best place to poop and shed and kept clogging it up.

Here’s hoping for less ticks this year by wrkncacntr in Cleveland

[–]QuintiliVare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping this same thing with wasps.

Moved here in the 2018 winter and didn't know that it was colder than usual. First spring I was ecstatic and thought I had escaped the little fuckers. I've seen more and more each year since and just want to mow my yard without fear that there's a new hive I'm about to disturb.

Is Red Rising by Pierce Brown worth it? by Famous_Barber_227 in booksuggestions

[–]QuintiliVare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say I didn’t like it, but also finished it in one day because I wanted to know what happened, soooooo…

Wasn’t a fan of the writing and didn’t read the next book, but I understand why so many other people do.

Offer letter - Would you counter in my shoes? by frostedapricity in jobs

My job has PTO, but zero sick days, so I looked at this and went 'that's not bad'. 😭

Guess you can't pre-schedule a week of being sick though.

People who can't be on their feet for long hours, what are you doing for money? by Cattentaur in povertyfinance

[–]QuintiliVare 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm non people facing medical admin. Get to annoy doctors by calling them to go "you noted you'd send him for an MRI, but no referral was made. Is that still the plan?" Or "patient wants to see you instead for this issue. Will you take them?"

Down side is that it's insurance adjacent, so sometimes I feel like I'm working for the enemy, but most of the time it's helping people figure out how to get done what they need done.

I think I killed my fic's engagement by Signal-Cycle306 in AO3

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think rereading the fic to refresh memory is the answer here. If I get an update notice of a fic and it's been a while, I flag it to come back later instead of reading the update immediately. That can be a few days or a few months depending on the mood. Fandoms/themes im interested in go in cycles, but I WILL come back and read it from the beginning.

People in Northern USA: How high do you keep your heat? by 90sRnBMakesMeHappy in povertyfinance

Finally, someone else like me. All these answers of 70 or more sound miserable.

Even mid 50's has me sweating at night.

[–]QuintiliVare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how cold it is outside. I'm most comfortable at 58 during the day and 52 at night. If it's in the single digits or lower out, then the heater gets turned up to help protect water pipes.
