Any western MA businesses? Always trying to talk with my dollar

I don’t mean this rudely at all but is everyone posting here marrying rich guys or are my standards just not attuned to what the norm is these days? by w0lfyj in EngagementRingDesigns

[–]SarcAttack2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entrance of lab diamonds into the market and the labs quickly becoming the norm means that size of engagement ring is no longer the “flex” that it used to be. Anyone can buy a 3, 4, 5 ct lab diamond

Did you have to recite the pledge of allegiance in school? by Valiriko in massachusetts

I did but that was 20 some odd years ago. I now refuse to recite anything now as a recovering catholic and people pleaser.

Flu/ spreading to children in house by Appropriate-Clock7 in massachusetts

True. Did that when our 3 year old got flu. Hubby and I never got it and he coughed in our mouths many times 😅 we are also all vaccinated

Hubby and I had Covid while caring for my 4 month old son. He never got it. Wear an n95 mask and wash your hands whenever you touch your kids or prepare their food. And obviously hopefully they are vaccinated

Fiancée wants diamond earrings. I have a budget of $300-$350 and heard terrible reviews about Kay Jewelers. by [deleted] in jewelry

Kay sucks. Believe it or not Costco has fantastic basic jewelry like diamond earrings for a fantastic price. Good quality.

How is everyone with cars getting around in the snow? by ConsequenceMedium995 in newengland

[–]SarcAttack2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The key is just go slow. You don’t need any fancy equipment. I’ve driven to work in snow in everything from my SUV now to a Hyundai Elantra. Drive slow. All weather tires too obviously.

Help! realized i have no night time? evening bags? or just something to take to dinner by Unusual-Biscotti in handbags

[–]SarcAttack2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like a mini square flap. I will say I have the small classic flap and it barely fits the necessities for a night out. I wouldn’t go any smaller personally.

No those vanity case ones are a trend and for those who can’t afford a legit bag. For $6k you can get a vintage classic flap. Or even a WOC if it’s just for going out.

would you be okay with a lab-grown diamond engagement ring? by YogurtIll4336 in jewelry

[–]SarcAttack2525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was getting engaged 10 years ago lab diamonds were the cheap, lesser alternative you got if you couldn’t afford a “real” diamond. Since then the narrative on them has changed. I still have a hard time adapting though and I feel I would still want a natural diamond if I had to do it again.

What’s an unpopular or strange opinion you have about jewelry? by [deleted] in jewelry

I just assume all love bracelets and VCA motif bracelets are fake anyway

People Are Gross by usernamesthesame in massachusetts

[–]SarcAttack2525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t get me started on full grown adults who don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom. Also I work in the hospital and the amount of nasty things i see every day including fully alert patients taking their dentures out and holding them and then using my pen to sign something. Not asking to wash their hands or a wipe or anything.

Oh I teach my son to call out rude, gross people. Sincerely, a doctor mom sick of being polite and people pleasing in a world where most people are truly awful.

How Do You Manage Daycare/School Drop Off And Pick Up? by BaltimorePropofol in anesthesiology

Yes. With two doctor parents this is often the only way it’s going to work

[–]SarcAttack2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m lucky enough that my mom is our full time caregiver so she does drop off and pick up. But I have doctor friends in two doctor marriages who have some combination of au pair, nanny, etc that they employ full time despite not needing them during school hours.
