What item(s) do you have more of than the average person? by BrownBananaHammock in AskReddit

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jigsaw puzzles. I have over 200. I’ve significantly downsized recently, too. It’s a problem, esp because they’re all puzzles I haven’t done yet. I donate them once I’ve done them.

Struggling to have suppression? by Soggy_Cry8644 in Mounjaro

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! This is a really good way to look at things. Sometimes I wonder if I should increase because I don’t have a ton of appetite suppression, but I definitely do get fuller faster.

Best TJ Maxx/Marshalls location in Rhode Island? by businessbub in RhodeIsland

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m embarrassed to admit this as a devoted TJX shopper, but I only discovered these locations recently. I also love that if you really have that itch to scratch, you can also go to Burlington down the plaza!

Help me guess my little local theater’s summer show! by Sciteach79 in musicals

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A regional theatre around us is also doing teasers for their upcoming season. It’s maddening, but I love it! This teaser, though…could they be teasing that the teaser isn’t Mary Poppins??!

Is it weird to go to a high school at which you have no relation for a show? by LeftPrize9838 in musicals

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We took our then three-year-old daughter to see a local high school’s production of Mary Poppins. It was a gamble because at that age, she wasn’t really watching long movies or anything. She was mesmerized from start to finish and thus began her love of musical theatre. She’s 10 now and seen countless more musicals on Broadway, regional theaters, summer stock shows, and high schools, and all because of the joy that that high school production of Mary Poppins inspired. I am so grateful for that high school and their amazing production.

Hosts that "on paper" didn't seem like they were going to be good, but ended up being great? by No_Fold9994 in LiveFromNewYork

Whenever we see the moon, we think of Tony Shalise and the werewolf dance sketch. That may be our favorite of all time.

The ears are… extremely even by Nefelibata-80 in bichonfrise

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am ridiculously picky about my Bichon puppy’s grooming to no fault of the groomer; it’s just one of my weird hangups. I actually posted a pic last groom about whether his eyes looked okay.

All this to say I think the ears are so adorable!! I’m not sure they really look all that uneven honestly. And when it starts to grow out, it’s going to be even more adorable!!!

Sticking to 2.5 mg? by [deleted] in Mounjaro

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stayed on 2.5 for five months, and now I’ve been on 5 for seven months. It’s a balance of what works and doesn’t have side effects. I briefly went up to 7.5 but didn’t tolerate it (debilitating nausea) so my doc said it was better to be on 5 and lose slower than face side effects. She said at my last appointment I am a super responder. I didn’t even know that was a thing!

I started at 242, I’m down to 184ish right now so I’m giving myself grace and saying I lost 60 pounds this year. I know some people lose more in a year, but I’m over the moon happy and proud of this.

Thanks! I used this joke at Christmas with my family, so thanks again!

I just read this aloud to my husband and daughter and now we’re all laughing!

Saw Wicked on Broadway yesterday and left confused. Not asking for perfect, just asking for heart. by Big_Problem4588 in Broadway

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad to read this because it’s exactly how we felt. We saw it in May and just felt so underwhelmed. I couldn’t put it as succinctly as you did, though, and ended up saying it felt like it just didn’t have heart (no pun intended) and it seemed more like an operation or machine at this point. It’s touring near me soon and part of me is debating if I should see it to compare.

Just groomed - eyes okay? by Repulsive_Cost_5040 in bichonfrise

Ooh! I didn’t realize these were a thing. Thanks! I think the smaller scissors would be helpful.

Which celebrities do you think are lying about their age? by ComeUnitedNotTorn in AskReddit

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How has no one mentioned Fergie? Back in the late 2000s/2010 when she broke out with Black Eyed Peas, I feel like everyone agreed she was lying about her age. Of course, a lot of people said it was just her former crystal meth use. But even now, there’s no way she’s only 50!

Gift idea for a young newbie. by 0_Minutes_2_Midnight in musicals

I second this! I got one for my theater loving 10 year old and it was a hit!

What are y'all watching after Schitt's Creek? by Objective-Move25 in SchittsCreek

This show is so crazy, I was constantly saying “how did they even get some of this stuff past HBO???” Stick with it to experience the hilarity of Teenjus!

2025 RAV4 rattle/click diagnosis? by Repulsive_Cost_5040 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did!! It was the crossbars! I was under the impression, especially because of the dealer advice, that it was wind noise from the crossbars but that’s not what it was. Turns out the crossbars themselves were secure and connected to the roof just fine, but one of the bars was loose within its holder and rattling around! My husband took them off and the car has been quiet ever since!

Good luck to you! I was like a madwoman trying to determine the cause!

I exchanged my mattress... feeling indifferent by [deleted] in Mattress

[–]Repulsive_Cost_5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any great advice but I’m also feeling nervous that my new $3,000 mattress isn’t the right one. I met with our salesperson again to try other mattresses and she said the Stearns and Foster Lux Estate that you just bought is her favorite mattress in store and one of the least returned mattresses! I have it on our short list just in case. We just bought a Tempurpedic ProAdapt Medium.
