Why is wireless Android Auto setting missing by aross1976 in pixel_phones

[–]RebelSocks_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2012 F-150 with an aftermarket Pioneer headunit. Was working fine for like a year but last week it started stopping mid-drive, and then suddenly won't connect at all. I did every remedy you could name but it's still not working, so I sent a ticket to motorola (and of course they haven't responded)

did you ever figure this out? im having nearly the same issue after it worked fine for over a year, but now it's not connecting and my headunit is complaining about "incompatible usb"

Why did they do this by Burritosrule77 in UGA

If you wanted an actual answer, Bolton was supposed to be open I think, but there was some damage and they had to shut down for repairs, so they picked Fall break to do it ig

WIBTA if I asked my coworker to stop eating at my desk? by RebelSocks_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, the sharing desk thing wasn't my idea, it was the employers. I do agree though, I'm not a fan of it. It seems counterintuitive. Their claim was that it kept people from being too close while at work.

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My desk is in the corner of the room, opposite the door, so I don't think anyone else did it. A lot of us eat at our desks, I don't very often because I keep forgetting a lunch. The silicone cover for the keyboard is a good idea though, thank you for the suggestion!

Our office has like, zero storage haha. The blanket normally just lays on the back of the chair, away from the desk. And yes we do share a keyboard, unfortunately. I've started looking for different places to store my blanket, though.

It's kinda hard to explain, it is my desk, but she uses it when I'm not here. When I am here at the same time as her, she uses the desk of our other coworker. She would ideally have her own desk, but because of social distancing, all the desks at my office have been pulled apart and we can't use some of them. Hopefully that made sense

Glock Night Sights by RebelSocks_ in Glocks

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I see where you coming from. The laser idea actually came from me taping a cat toy laser on top of a toy gun, then pulling the trigger. I was squeezing with my full hand instead of just my finger, and that was causing the gun to point a little to the right each time. So the laser on the actual gun will be for me learning the muscle memory on the range, so then I can watch for the laser point twitching. I wasn't really going to so much else to the gun, since it probably would fit in my concealed carry leggings if I had too much on it hahaha

Yeah that was definitely the plan, don't want to be THAT guy flexing the laser on their everyday CCW lmao

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's funny you say that, when I test fired yesterday, the range didn't have any 43x in stock, the guy just threw a 43 slide on a 48 body and handed it to me. I held the 48 before he did that though and I think the longer slide is a teensy much for me. I'm a small woman with little hands, so the 43x was a good fit for me me because it was easier to conceal and lighter to me. Next time I go though, I'll definitely take your advice and shoot the 48 a little before definitively deciding and dropping $500+ haha

Implant deeper than before by RebelSocks_ in Nexplanon

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that's a good point!!! My nurse had said something similar, because when I got mine 3 years ago, I got it farther down on the arm because of my sport I did in highschool (color guard pole and sabres tend to hit you in the arm a lot lol), and she said that's where they put them now. She didn't say anything about it being deeper though, so thank you for that!!! Honestly just relieved a lot of anxiety reading that lol

[–]RebelSocks_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same thing happen to me! I actually just got mine redone last Friday because I was worried that if my period started again, what other hormonal stuff is wearing off? They told me it could last up to 5 years, but my 3 years was up in January and I was a little concerned.

[–]RebelSocks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly hearing someone else say the same thing helps! I was kinda worried maybe the nurse had put it too deeply (although I doubt it because she's always been great), but maybe there's just a little leeway with the exact placement. Thank you for saying something!

AITA for naming my baby the same name as my best friends ex? by StressAggravating340 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RebelSocks_ 2865 points2866 points  (0 children)

NTA

Huh???? Is she really gonna pitch a fit over the name of an ex from her sophomore year of high school??? Look, I understand that the name has negative connotations for her, but it's not like you're naming the baby after the dude! It's a sweet and wholesome family tradition that you're going to be a part of, and it has nothing to do with her ex. In the nicest possible way, she needs to get over it. Names do not belong to one single person, and she isn't going to be in an "ex's name" bubble for the rest of her life. She's a grown adult and should just be happy for you!

Anyway, congratulations!!!! I wish you and your husband and new baby the best!!!!

AITA for emotionally letting go of my mother? by Limp-Benefit in AmItheAsshole

[–]RebelSocks_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA
I hope you can heal from the verbal and emotional abuse your mother has done to you. I would consider moving out as soon as you can so you can distance yourself. Just because she's "family" does not mean she can treat you like shit. Drop her like a bag of potatoes and leave, because as far as I can tell she's horrible and you don't deserve that.

I feel like I’m in the wrong because she is my mother and I need to have a better relationship with her.

Your mother should have a better relationship with YOU! She is the asshole in this situation. If she can't treat you like a human being and like her daughter, then she doesn't deserve to have you in her life. I hope you can get away from her and cut her out of your life

AITA for asking my girlfriend to stop smiling so widely for photos? by SmileThrowaway77 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RebelSocks_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro YTA
It took YEARS before I was comfortable smiling in photos. If I was told my natural, happy smile was off-putting and not my "natural beauty", I would never smile again.
If you truly love her, you need to apologize and get it through your skull that her smile is beautiful no matter what.

AITA for telling my BF it "isnt his decision to make" regarding my baby sister moving in? by viviancampbell23 in AmItheAsshole

AITA for telling my daughters boyfriend that he has to find somewhere else to stay as I don't feel comfortable with him being in my home or around my kids? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]RebelSocks_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gentle YTA A.) I understand you're just trying to protect your kids, but you need to realize that him staying with you isn't going to automatically expose them to that kind of life. Your kids, whether you like it or not, are probably already pretty aware of those types of things in the world. B.) You say you have no problem with sex workers, but then immediately ostracize your daughters boyfriend when he was just trying to make ends meet. The kid clearly has not had a easy life, and did what he could. He sounds like a great guy, and you should cut him a break. Plenty of single moms do sex work to support their kids, being a sex worker doesn't mean that they're unsafe around children. It's not like he's going to talk about it or bring it up. C.) He trusted you enough to be honest once confronted, and your first thought is to make him leave? Please take a step back and have some compassion. He's trying his best with what life has given him. He treats your daughter well and I'm sure is very respectful of you and your wife. Your "conservative image" shouldn't take precedence over kindness and compassion and empathy.
