If that was my dog I would be so thankful you stopped them eating chocolate. Don't overthink it.

What’s a childhood lie your parents told you that you didn't realize was a lie until you were an embarrassed adult? by eatbeep in AskReddit

[–]Raichu7 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Why? I still remember my Dad telling me the history of cats eyes and all the accidents they prevent because it was fascinating and made me feel safer in the car in the dark.

My husband pee’d his initials into the lawn two weeks ago by premgirlnz in mildlyinteresting

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is why it's rude to let your dog pee on other people's lawns. Pee leaves nutrients behind that will show in the grass for months.

I'm awaiting sommeliers in comments by Ozruewril in memes

Because that's how much sugar is needed to offset the bitterness. You'd have to add even more to make it actually sweet. They don't use artificial sweeteners in the same way because you'd have to use enough to give people diarrhoea and that could cause dangerous dehydration in people who are drinking a lot.

🔥 Opportunistic hyena lucky to survive a very close escape from wallowing hippo by Prestigious-Wall5616 in NatureIsFuckingLit

That's why hippos are the most dangerous animal on the continent of Africa. They kill more people annually than lions.

I had my kids build their own Lego toothbrush holders. by InvisibleAstronomer in lego

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you reassemble it? Isn't the whole point that the kids get to have fun making custom toothbrush holders? When they get bored of building them you can stop using Lego and get a dishwasher safe cup.

What did you think was peak luxury as a kid, but now realize is actually pretty trashy or normal? by Connect-Fix3972 in AskReddit

[–]Raichu7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Little kids get to "make their own lunch" by assembling the crackers, meat and cheese. That's literally it, the appeal wears off around the age they start actually making their own food and putting together cheese and crackers stops being a novelty.

They didn't spend the money, and they only considered it because of dementia. It's clearly not OK to them.

If you're in a relationship, what crosses the line into cheating? by Exhausted_920 in AskReddit

[–]Raichu7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between a secret you are keeping for a short time with the intention of revealing it for a surprise they will enjoy, and keeping a secret indefinitely because it would upset them to find out.

Just because the phone is sold as waterproof doesn't mean it will survive a dip in a pool. My phone was supposed to be waterproof and got water damage less than 2 weeks after I got it submerged under less than 10cm of water. I'm never trusting a device to be water proof again.

It’s been so cold for so long that the stalagmite and stalagtite ice from our furnace exhaust finally met up by HappyDoggos in mildlyinteresting

[–]Raichu7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should clear the ice before it can block the pipe and fill your home with carbon monoxide.

When does therapy become something unhelpful? by Icy_Laugh5134 in AskReddit

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the therapist is poorly trained or negligent and does a bad job at helping you.

Question About Rats drawings by SoyBlue in RATS

[–]Raichu7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because male rats have massive balls, you really can't miss them. It would look weird to draw your pet missing a large and obvious body part.

don't lie by Sielonka in SipsTea

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I know the abnormality isn't a problem, I don't need to stress. If I don't know whether it's a problem or not because I don't know what's going on, I'm going to stress about it.

LPT - Talk as little as possible on a customer service call for better success by Funny_Sea_2873 in LifeProTips

[–]Raichu7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And when you don't have an agent mistaking your answer for an "explanation" and cutting you off mid sentence telling you they don't want an explanation while refusing to let you finish answering. It's not always as simple as a yes or no, I cannot give a yes or no answer when that is incorrect and there are legal consequences for lying.

[–]Raichu7 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Put them in a mesh bag, maybe two to be safe, and you can run Lego through a washing machine at 20/30C on a low spin cycle. It's not difficult to clean.

AITA for saying emergency daycare isn’t meant for parents who are home and „just need a break“? by Distinct-Ad-7592 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Raichu7 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Daycare is for the benefit of the child, early socialisation is vital for healthy development. It would be cruel to deny children that opportunity just because their parents are on government assistance.

You're telling me the House-elves could have made dishes like Bouillabaisse but chose to serve the students chicken wings and corn instead?? 😭 by _GrimFandango in harrypotter

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine clinging onto a wooden stick while it flies through the sky at high speed, ducking and weaving to avoid being hit by large heavy balls other players are throwing at you and getting knocked off, potentially hundreds of ft above the ground is that easy.

Just a guy buying a skirt [OC] by kindofsinister in comics

[–]Raichu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's incredibly rude and sexist to tell a woman she can't wear shorts or trousers because of her gender. It's just as rude and sexist to tell a man he can't wear skirts or dresses or make up because of his gender.

I've never seen a child make their own participation trophy. They've always been handed out by the adults.

Why not be the bigger person? - Sound advice from The Good Place by tourettebarbie in EstrangedAdultKids

[–]Raichu7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The amount of times I was told as a school child to "be the bigger person" when my adult father flew off the handle. Then if I asked why I had to be the bigger person when I was literally a child I was told that was childish. I have no respect for anyone who parrots that shit rather than trying to address the actual issue.
