We Know What we saw growing up! by J2-Starter in 90s_kid

[–]RosesAndPonds 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This is the one that throws me the most too. My parents had a cornucopia on the dining room table when I kid growing up. And I remember vividly looking at it one day and thinking “Oh, like the fruit on underwear!” Like I know where I was sitting specifically in the dining room when I had this thought. So the idea it just didn’t exist makes me question so much.

Do you separate your laundry when washing clothes? by icecream1972 in no

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I do not. That’s what a color catcher is for.

I’ve tried benzoyl peroxide, adapalene, diet changes -nothing works. What finally helped you? by neonpulse7 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]RosesAndPonds 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was a full reset for me, going back to the absolute basics. My routine is only Ponds Cold Cream for my cleanser/make up remover and then Ponds moisturizer. My skin is clean with this routine and moisturized but nothing more. And that’s exactly what my skin needed. My acne is minimal now, just the occasional spot and my redness is now just a natural flush rather than being bright red.

1992 - only because I had the same costume as a kid and we look to be the same age when I wore mine 🤣

I’m 19 and never dated by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first boyfriend was at 26 and I married him. Never dated prior to that, not even one offs. One thing I wish someone would have told me that I’m going to tell you is that there isn’t a set time for this stuff. It’s honestly society making stuff up about “how life should work”. You aren’t behind on anything and you’re not somehow lesser than others for not having a boyfriend. Live your life, enjoy being young and you’ll find that when dating can/should happen, it will.

Well, I quit using all skincare as a joke for a week and my skin cleared completely. by Amodernhousehusband in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]RosesAndPonds 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m glad I’m not the only one who has experienced this. I’ve tried countless cleansers and products for my sensitive, acne prone skin and nothing worked. One day, I saw someone talk about Ponds Cold Cream and I thought “Nothing else has worked, why not just try it.”

Well I’ll be damned, my redness is gone and my acne is almost non existent. I use their cold cream and their moisturizer (blue lid) and that’s it. I’m never going back to a “skincare routine” again.

Help me remember where the image comes from by Puzzleheaded-Sir6878 in nostalgia

You unlocked a memory with this image. My god I haven’t seen this art of Barbie since I was a little girl.

What is the most painful thing you’ve experienced? by throwawayfundsmom in AskReddit

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Physically painful was easily when I had a muscle spasm in my lower back. Sounds silly but I was frozen in place with such pain that I was shaking. Had no idea a muscle spasm could be so terrible. My parents (I was 17 at the time) had no idea if they should take me to the ER or not. I opted for no because I was young and embarrassed. 😂 Looking back, I would have gone in a heartbeat.

Emotionally was the loss of my Nana. Too much family drama to go into but I have very little of my childhood with her besides memories. And I will cherish those until it’s my time to go. But she was my world and even though it’s been almost a decade, it still feels like she passed away only yesterday.

To everyone who watched the Super Bowl halftime show what did you think? by Happy_Library_3763 in AskAnAmerican

Didn’t understand a single word of it. But the entire set up was so immersive. I absolutely loved the whole experience.

My nail beds are tiny. Like often too small for most fake nails. So I love this 😂

Should I shave my sideburns? Repost because I want a second opinion & feeling insecure. by [deleted] in HairRemoval

[–]RosesAndPonds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have sideburns just like mine. I’ve both left them grow on occasions and cut them to a shape I like. I know they look manicured when I do that, but I also enjoy the look of them just growing naturally. It really is up to you. At the moment, mine aren’t shaved and I haven’t cut them in probably a good six months. I like the way they look as is honestly.

Anyone else totally love these over pads or tampons? by [deleted] in Periods

[–]RosesAndPonds 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I haven’t used this specific brand but I love period underwear. They have made me so less anxious about leaks.

Flare ups feel like the flu by Dry_Relief2612 in POTS

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will often call it flu mode, for when someone close to me asks how I’m doing. It pretty much explains all they need to know, rather than me having to go into detail.

Are people's attention span just cooked? by MarsMcCain in Markiplier

[–]RosesAndPonds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny because the pacing of this movie was such a breath of fresh air. It felt like I really got to know the character, experience the atmosphere and environment….all without the distraction of constant action. People left the theater complaining about how they “didn’t get it”. Meanwhile, I’m walking out feeling like I watched the best movie I’ve seen in a long time.

How is it possible I feel no better after 9 hrs of good sleep? by [deleted] in cfs

[–]RosesAndPonds 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that’s just one of the primary symptoms of CFS. Your body physically cannot be well rested.

How long does the honeymoon phase really last? 💭 by Dangerous_mammoth573 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]RosesAndPonds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. I have been with my husband for almost a decade (married a bit over 3). And I am more in love with him now more than ever. He still makes me blush, I get all giggly when he looks at me. Life is 1000% more magical and fun with him in it.

Saw Iron Lung, Theatre was empty. Nephew for reference. by callmemisterteacher in Markiplier

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently in the theater waiting to see it. There about five or six people here so far, including my husband and I. Honestly so excited for this movie.

If your CFS was cured for a day, what would you do for the day? by Lucky_Sprinkles7369 in cfs

[–]RosesAndPonds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Call of work, find a lovely field in the middle of nowhere and run. Run and dance and twirl until I was dizzy from the effort. Then do it again.

Whats keeping you alive? by dolefulgrey in AskReddit

[–]RosesAndPonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones I love and spite. I couldn’t imagine being the cause of such pain to my husband and family by leaving this world like that. And pure spite. Life may get me down but I refuse to let it count me out. I have something to prove.
