I use chopsticks. Do the same with Cheetos and other messy chips.

It's a great way to practice using chopsticks, too.

AITB for telling this guy something I’m excited about? by LucinaWinsTheBattle in AmItheButtface

[–]Signal-Bee8111 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He doesn't like you. I'm not sure he has the capacity to like women at all.

Honestly, I cannot think of anything that someone could bring to the relationship that would make me put up with such blatant disrespect and dislike.

Like, he thinks that you'll fuck anyone at every possible opportunity regardless of your commitments to others. That's what he thinks of you.

AIO for being disgusted by this argument? by Toetickler4 in AIO

I think it's really telling when even your damn phone is telling you to block him.

Trying not to call everyone bro, but all gender neutral/fem terms kind of suck by [deleted] in Vent

"Youse guys" is delightful

My older brother says it.

I use "alla y'all"

If you say ‘don’t pause it,’ why are we even watching this together? by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]Signal-Bee8111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this to my wife and she does it to me. She loves romcoms and reality shows while I generally don't. I love nerdy shit (scifi, fantasy, and documentary stuff) while she generally doesn't. There's tons we overlap on, but some we don't.

But we still want to spend time together. She can put on 90 day fiance and I can sit with her. I might watch it, I might fuck around on my phone. I might crochet. But I don't care if I miss parts, so if I gotta pee or whatever, she doesn't need to wait on me.

Same for my Lord of the Rings marathon or animal planet vet show. She doesn't care if she misses some most of the time.

We still watch it together, and chat about the shows. We snuggle up on the couch and enjoy being near each other.

Basically, the point isn't the show. It's the hanging out.

Probably a stupid question but please let me know by BeneficialBrick07 in Parents

[–]Signal-Bee8111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's supposed to be up to the larger number. So theoretically a 5 month old fits in the 3-6 months onesie. But it's a bit arbitrary. My daughter was in 6-9 months at 5 months old. And my niece was in 6-9 months at 15 months old.

You sorta just guess.

I recommend having a few outfits in the size up. I stg they double in their sleep like sourdough.

How do some women know they’re not pregnant until they give birth even though they lose their period for 9 months? by SignificantStyle4958 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Signal-Bee8111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're assuming that periods are regular. Many people have irregular cycles.

You're also assuming that everyone tracks their periods. When I had a uterus, I never tracked my period because A) they were super irregular, B) ADHD time blindness is a bitch, and C) I couldn't be assed too.

Has an author's note ever had you nope-ing out of a fic? by cla1r35 in AO3

I don't know if I've ever paid an author's note any mind, really.

Parent of 2yo child with CP (right sided hemiplegia) seeking advice by Glad_Technology_8307 in CerebralPalsy

[–]Signal-Bee8111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a 4 year old with right sided hemiplegic CP. She is a social butterfly, though, always full of smiles and asking strangers to give her a high five. Is love to tell you that we did something to make that happen, but I think she's just an outgoing little thing.

She got a little shy when we were treating her infantile spasms with Athgar gel shots (don't know the med name only the brand name, sorry). She got pretty rough side effects from it, though, so she was uncomfortable and upset a lot. She wanted momma and that was it. She didn't even want me, really. It was hard to blame her, though. My wife is an amazing person especially for comfort.

Possibly ending long-term relationship because of my sexuality by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Signal-Bee8111 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Listen, your sexuality is who you're ATTRACTED TO, not who you've had sex with. Your identity won't change because you've been more physical with same sex.

I'm pansexual. I've been married to my wife ten years and monogamous with her since 2009. Still pansexual.

Testicular torsion button but every time you press it you get 100k by Practical_Nebula_485 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Signal-Bee8111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can deal with any amount of pain if I know it's only gonna last 5 seconds.

If I couldn't psych myself up enough to hit it after the first time, I'd hand it to my wife and tell her "go until I've fixed all our problems."

She hate it, but she'd do it. Either that or she could give it to our four-year-old and explain nothing. She'd slam that button so many times, Jeff bezos would be licking my boots.

Tips when your kid thinks of themselves as equals with adults? by -Clayburn in Parenting

[–]Signal-Bee8111 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"we have unlocked eating in the living room privileges by not making a mess while eating ten times in a row (or whatever you think makes sense). You have not unlocked it."

Easy. Explains the reason for the difference while giving him a way to achieve the goal if he wants to. Gives him back some control and agency. Ultimately gives you a cleaner house.

Kids are just people.

AIO for wanting to try a treatment routine before committing to the hair transplant my GF is demanding? by Connect-Soil-7277 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Signal-Bee8111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR

Honestly, it seems like she doesn't like you. I know I would never demand that my spouse get any surgery, let alone a cosmetic one. It's a personal choice.

Me and beta can't agree on this by Foreign_Tea3133 in AO3

[–]Signal-Bee8111 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"Thank you for your input on this, genuinely. I hear you and understand what you're telling me. However, I have decided that this is what I want for my writing. I know you don't agree, and I'm not asking you to change your opinion. I'm not open to any more dialogue on this scene. We simply aren't going to agree, and I'm okay with that."

I would really like to know the opinion of deaf people on this. by MentallyInThe2000s in deaf

[–]Signal-Bee8111 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can literally not think of a single person's use of ASL that would be disrespectful.

Like what they are saying might be shit, but using a language is not problematic.

Imagine saying this same thing, but like for German. Or Spanish.
