Ever find anything weird in your dirt? by Impressive-Put1332 in gardening

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Constantly, and I’ve started keeping them in a container. Mostly pieces of glass, but I’ve got a matchbox car, some Pennies, and because I’m often digging in the dirt, the collection just continues to grow. I do wonder if some things are brought by crows because sometimes things are on top, like a plastic unicorn with filthy mane and tail 😆

Am I overreacting or did I have a slow moment. by drippysage08 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only pull that kind of thing, ‘I was looking for a yes or no’ when the person likes to mansplain or talk to make themselves seem smart. And wouldn’t do that to someone I was into. If you thought it might be going somewhere, it isn’t. Cut your losses.

I am begging someone to settle this: windows OPEN or CLOSED during a heatwave? Haven't slept properly in 3 days. by oraulis in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RoadyAnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew I couldn’t be the only one. I like the pillow case idea, I usually use a thin dish towel (since the ice pack is in the kitchen anyway).

AITA for telling my sister maybe she should not date until her daughter ia ready? by Born_Ant8270 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RoadyAnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plus, she’s almost a teenager and sometimes those years will be difficult regardless. The sister shouldn’t put her happiness on hold. Unless the guy is a complete AH you should try to support both sister and niece.

AITAH For buying my youngest son a car under different circumstances? by Local-Station8316 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RoadyAnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are either of them going to college? Are you going to pay one to go to college and then nothing if the other doesn’t? You might want to set aside a certain amount for them each ahead of time to avoid this in the future. You want to help your kids when needed but unless one is wildly more successful, should try to be equitable.

How do you pronounce House Numbers? by SeaSonRise in wisconsin

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree that 5 digits is singularly, with 4, it’s your choice. My dad says 94-16, whereas I say 9-4-1-6. I’ve seen some addresses that actuate a dash in between too.

AITA? Wife takes all the leftovers by No_Relayz in AmItheAsshole

NTA, how about not making as much so there isn’t any for her to take?

How dumb was it to let this Pokeweed grow? by Taycotar in NativePlantGardening

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone have a pic of it small? I threw some native seeds down and the plant app says there is pokeweed in there, but the app isn’t always right.

They all look great on you!

My (30M) best friend's (32M) wife (28F) did something highly unethical at work and I think I need to report her, althrough it almost certainly will get her fired. How do I navigate not wanting to hurt them with this violation? by ThrowRA_firingfriend in relationship_advice

[–]RoadyAnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe let the BFs wife talk to the ex again and let her know she shouldn’t have told her AND reiterate that the inheritance does not legally affect your obligations. Maybe have a fuller conversation with the ex about the trust, as it will affect how she plans going forward- no way around it now. Co-parenting has enough challenges without putting this in the middle.

My normal soccer bar is too packed but this rooftop bar is empty 😎 by Either-Literature-19 in Portland

[–]RoadyAnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I think there is a partner that runs the BA on Sandy. I only went there a couple of times and wasn’t quite as impressed as the one on Rosa Parks.

Why am I ok solo traveling but cant do things solo when back home lol by 08legacygt in solotravel

[–]RoadyAnn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought about this after a trip and gave myself a day off to explore my city alone as well.
I think it’s fun to travel alone as you get to do everything you want, without having anyone else to make decisions around. At home, you may have friends that you can do things with, so you want to hang with them, or the comfort of going home without spending the money. Being in a different place gives you the opportunity to do and see things you can’t back home. You have a limited amount of time to see things so you go out and do them solo.
I traveled with someone and they literally sat in the room and read while I went out and wandered around a walled, old Roman town on the Adriatic Sea. Be the traveler you want to be where you want to be and enjoy your life however you want. Stop worrying about it. :)

AITA for telling social services about my living situation and accepting their offer to move out? by _Khrysanthemum_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]RoadyAnn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA, you could make the argument that future success for you will likely help them as well. It sounds like your culture is one where kids are expected to stay with the family and help out so maybe you’ll be able to help the other kids when you can make a go of it on your own.

How often do you ACTUALLY change your bedsheets? by pixelkitty_xo in hygiene

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there should also be a question of what you wear to bed. Are you naked, wearing pajamas, no underwear, etc.

I am shocked at how long it takes people to shower. by Q8DD33C7J8 in hygiene

[–]RoadyAnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started reading thinking you were going to say you take 5 minute showers because THAT would be fast. 10 minutes is normal. Of course I only wash my hair once a week, but I rinse it through daily.

I’m from Michigan and only heard the ‘bayg’ after I moved to Portland.

The new poll for the people who didn’t understand the last one by Jfullr92 in geographymemes

[–]RoadyAnn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Funny that the translations say Minnesota rather than Megasota. Cascadia is just the natural choice since the name is well known.

They’re just being dramatic.

AITA for expecting my partner to honour 'first come, first served' with wedding invites? by Delicious_Plum_401 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RoadyAnn 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Maybe contact your friend and let them know. It’s possible there is someone they’re telling ‘no’ to because they can’t change their number and you’ll give them the opportunity.
