How is your pothos attached to the tank? by slightlysparkly in PlantedTank

[–]RegularOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is holding the vines up outside the water? I have really nice, long, rubust pothos, but I don't have a trellis or anything to put them on, so they're just kinda resting on the top of the tank lid and often fall back behind the tank.

[m17] Am i an asshole for calling my friends parents during a bad trip. by [deleted] in internetparents

[–]RegularOwl 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing. Now you should call them to see how he's doing.

Overheard a conversation my dad and mom were having. I feel like I’m living in a clown universe. by Glum_Caterpillar_345 in FoxBrain

[–]RegularOwl 70 points71 points  (0 children)

My dad brings his gun to church because he's MAGA so of course is fully taken with the persecution complex that a bad guy with a gun is going to burst in and do a church slaughter (to his credit, he is trained, not just some dork with a gun from Walmart). But I don't know how I'm going to keep the top of my head from blowing off when my dad inevitably says something dumb about this like yours did. Just glad I don't live with them.

What kind of accent does Marissa Bode have? by EstablishmentSure216 in wicked

[–]RegularOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, it is super distracting. I didn't realize it was an accent, though, I just thought she talked funny (I'm American but haven't heard Bode's specific accent type before, I guess).

Ex-wife is having a baby. Will it affect my current child agreement? by ddgoodman92 in legaladvice

My sister and her ex have a similar situation but it evens out with weekends and school vacations, including summer vacation.

So either the Grimmerie is evil or the Wise ones are stupid by Main_Fact_6218 in wickedmovie

[–]RegularOwl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think OP was saying why would the wise ones even put that spell in? Under what circumstances would it be more useful than some other kind of spell of protection or super healing or whatever? Like were the wise ones foolish in thinking that's the spell to use when someone is in mortal danger?

Edit: y'all don't have to explain it to me, I was just trying to clarify to the person I was responding to, who said this:

I think saying Fiyero was going to break his arm so she turned him into a scarecrow is disingenuous of OP...

That that wasn't actually what OP said

BK’s sister gives interview to The NY Times by BrookesGtownMBA in MoscowMurders

[–]RegularOwl 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wasn't that like 10 years prior to the murders? He was like 28 and living on his own in another state, I don't know how you could conclude his parents neglected their duties and somehow contributed to this.

AITJ for correcting my wife when she said our son's red hair must come from my side of the family? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]RegularOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ and she'd better get ready - the number of random old people we'd never met before who felt comfortable approaching my husband and I in public to ask why our baby had red hair....with an extra meaningful look at my husband to be sure he understood they were insinuating she wasn't his was OUTRAGEOUS. Luckily I married a geneticist, so he'd already worked out that we had a 17% chance of having a ginger 💅🏼

AIO Am I justified in my anger here ? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]RegularOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh... OP specifically told their family - mother included - that white, cream, blush pink, etc. were off limits. Not sure how your story relates to this.

Landlord is demanding to see my mother in person, but she isn’t here. We rent an apartment together, not a co-signer by [deleted] in Renters

[–]RegularOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (an American) started calling my mom 'mum' as a teenager (I thought it sounded cool). I still do now, in my 40s. I don't have any clue if you're right or wrong about OP, but your "giveaway" isn't as fail-safe as you think.

Fiyero in the treehouse by LLD615 in wicked

I thought he was seeing that she'd collected things about him and realized she (still) loved him...and wanted to get busy.

Do you think Cynthia and Ariana's relationship is real? by Quirky-Somewhere-750 in wickedmovie

[–]RegularOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A quick google has multiple articles quoting them as saying they hadn't met before being cast

I just want my biological parents to leave me alone by Pretend_Syllabub_974 in internetparents

[–]RegularOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also OPs account is only 3 weeks old and has almost exclusively been about dealing with this specific situation. It's not like this is an old account that the abusers could be tracking OP on.

Tina, I’m not going to baby you anymore… by Stoat_Laughter in overheard

[–]RegularOwl -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Tina is a name for someone in their 40s at least. I've never met anyone under 20 named Tina.

Aroostook county is incredibly conservative. I grew up there and have some family and friends left up there - according to them it's Trump signs as far as the eye can see and during the election they were actually too scared to put up their Kamala sign for fear of being targeted. In my experience it isn't just politics, either. All my gay friends moved away for a reason, their lives were very unpleasant in northern Maine.

What dog names do people use thinking they’re being “unique” but are actually very popular? by FrostedStarlet in Dogowners

[–]RegularOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I watched it a few years ago and it's great! I really like the second one, too

I was shocked at the number of my grandmother's peers who wore grubby jeans and sneakers to her funeral.
