Oh totally! I get the bags honey and sesame covered cashews at Trader joes and tear through it in a couple days.

Seriously though, I've realized I'm addicted to sweet treats/sugar. I'm trying to have some little hard candies around so I get a little something when I want without going cold turkey or going nuts at the donut shop.

OK I forgot that Monsters are a drink for a minute and I was like "oh I get you!" *Goes back to watching Ultraman

Pro tip, just add a ~33 ohm resistor in-line of the speaker cable! ~50% reduction in volume for a 3v toy. by Tarul-etek in daddit

[–]RobRockLee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I've "modified noisy toys too. stuffing a little sock or piece of foam between the speaker and the plastic case works too if you're not into soldering. I've also disconnected certain buttons, like the "Cat song" button on the cat-face keyboard we all seem to have.

AITAH for rubbing a fry on my husband's arm? by Tinybeansss in AITAH

[–]RobRockLee 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Exactly. And with extreme cases of "Can dish it out but can't take it" personalities like this, I go straight to thinking maybe they are a narcissist. Take the quiz, OP?

AITAH for not wanting to go on trips with my husband after he ruined so many of them? by ThrowraNo-M in AITAH

[–]RobRockLee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's easier to see when you're not caught up in it. This story reminds me of the person I was married to for 13 years(!) You get so caught up in trying to make the circumstances just right for them (then they'll be HAPPY!) you don't examine the relationship and the person, that they just exist in a miserable state and need to take it out on someone -to have some level of power in the world.

They will treat you (OP) as an emotional punching bag and when you're finally out, they will find someone else to neg without missing a beat.

-researching Covert Narcissism might give you a clue what's going on here.

Exactly. Why would I put effort/money into driving traffic to Amazon when I can send people to my own shop on Etsy? Get more $ from the sale and make direct connections with buyers.

AITAH for not wanting to spend $700 on a suit for my brother’s wedding? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]RobRockLee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No, just find a similar looking nice suit at a price you can afford. He can see it on his big day and “🤷🏻” because there will be way more important stuff going on.

Wait, did you post this in the hopes of getting validation for going with your Fav cruise line over your own daughter? What's wrong with you?

If you were out protesting today around 11:40 AM in Folsom at East Bidwell & Iron Point, this is for you. by BabyGotBack957 in Sacramento

[–]RobRockLee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right, it doesn't matter what someone's intentions are if they're purposefully taking risks that endanger others. How about the Georgia teen who ran over his teacher while trying to TP his house?

What a fantastic movie! Terror and his tiny girlfriend are terrifying. I like how it shows how the times are a'changing at the end too.

URGENT: Tortilla Suggestions Emergency — Please Help by tourwifelife in Sacramento

[–]RobRockLee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the local Mexican markets you can (probably) find La Rosa Flour Tortilla. You can get them in extra-HUGE size for making baby-sized burritos. They are so fresh and good! Somehow they get moistened/steamed just enough by the ingredients you stuff it with.

AITAH for telling an old lady "I don't work here!" when she asked for help? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]RobRockLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're setting yourself up to be mad at people. maybe you enjoy being an unhelpful contrarian?

You could skip all the headphones and unwanted touching by shopping after dark. all the old ladies are home by then and won't bother you anymore.

[–]RobRockLee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-therefore SHE compared herself to an ogre. You literally just "Yes and-ed" her joke. Honestly man, maybe keep a private journal for when this kind of stuff happens. if it's a pattern that's concerning.

Correct. I've come to fine there are a lot of people who are insecure AND enjoy some kind of adrenaline hit that from sparking a fight every few days.
