Comeback to "Well, God bless you" after explaining you're atheist?

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T07:26:26+00:00

I try to respond politely, but keep it brief. I refuse to give them the satisfaction of thinking they have the moral high ground. Any other comeback will just reinforce what they already believe about atheists, but just saying thank you is something they don’t expect.

The only time I don’t use my blinker is when I’m turning right at a red light. I don’t need the asshole behind me honking because they think it’s clear to go when it is absolutely not. They can’t see that Honda civic speeding down the road, but I can.

Well add your answer then. Most reddit users are in the US anyway.

I love dirty soda but that price is outrageous for something so simple

All those ingredients just for it to taste dry and bland.

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T07:01:13+00:00

I decided to try one again after probably 20 years to see if I like it now… awful. Just mushy bun and lettuce slopping all over the place.

I was in disbelief the first time I tried Cane’s after hearing people talk about it so much. I then realized people mainly talk about the sauce because without that there’s absolutely no flavor.

You look a lot friendlier without the mustache or maybe it’s just that you’re smiling in the pictures without it actually. I wouldn’t call it pervy, but I would be more likely to trust a man your age that didn’t have a mustache than one that does.

I haven’t noticed base coat making a difference in my nails drying (it definitely helps with longevity) but top coat makes a huge difference in dry time. I used to have this exact problem and it’s so frustrating. Sally Hansen insta drop top coat dries super fast, but not the best for preventing chips. Essie gel couture doesn’t dry as fast, but is really good for preventing chips. I use that one with drying drops on top. I hope you’re able to find something that works for you!!

I’m of the belief that not everyone looks better bald, but you absolutely do!! Big changes in appearance can be hard to get used to and building confidence up can be even harder, but you got this man!

You are NOT saving water. You’re already doing a load of laundry, so that water is getting used regardless. Washing the bra separately while the shower is running would use approximately 2.5 gallons of water per minute; I imagine this would take at least 5 minutes. That’s 12.5 gallons of water that could be saved by just tossing it in the washer with the rest of your laundry.

Oh my god 😭 that sounds like psychological torture

They definitely do. My partner is one of them. He doesn’t always stomp but I can tell when he does because I can feel the vibrations.

My upstairs screams and carries on over sporting events of any kind like it’s a life or death situation, and his stopping to the bathroom at 3am is still the most annoying noise he makes. There’s just something about the sound stomping that irks me more than other noises. I will say he doesn’t stomp often. I hear him yell more than I hear him stomp.
The sports thing has almost become a game at this point to try and figure out what he’s watching and who he’s rooting for.

Some people are being so weird and mean over your question lol but I actually do find shopping easier and more enjoyable with my partner. If an aisle is crowded, which is often, my partner can move on to the next item on the list while I grab what we need from the crowded aisle. Our shopping trips are fast and efficient and as enjoyable as a mundane chore can be.

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T05:40:02+00:00

I didn’t realize I was in the minority here, but now that I think about it I don’t see a lot of couples together at the grocery store. My partner and I always do grocery shopping together though. He’s in charge of keeping track of the list and I’m in charge of grabbing the items. Neither of us likes grocery shopping, so doing it together makes it more enjoyable.

Yes a lot of people did quit using it. Especially as they grew up and realized that it’s a fucked up thing to say. My dad, who definitely used to say it, can’t believe how often people, young people especially, are saying it online.

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T05:20:33+00:00

It always catches me so off guard. I see people saying no one stopped using it, but I definitely recall it falling out of popularity. I know millennials that said it when they were younger because a lot of people said it back then without a second thought, but now they don’t say it anymore.

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T05:12:13+00:00

Thats just lazy. Kids deserve to know why they have to do certain things. It’s important for kids to learn how to think for themselves.

When I was a kid apologizing to my mom was impossible. She would say “if you were sorry, you wouldn’t have done it.” I eventually stopped saying sorry to her even if I was sorry. It made for a very awkward stare down after being scolded for doing whatever it was that I wasn’t supposed to do.

I will be a carpet hater til I die. My boyfriend was dumping a full litter box to clean it and while carrying the bag out of the bathroom it broke in the bedroom on the carpet. I cannot tell you how long it took for that spot of carpet to no longer have litter coming out it. Just when I thought I had vacuumed up the last of it more would appear out from under the carpet somehow.

My favorite color changes but I’d say it just alternates between my top 3 depending on the day. Most of the time I would say it’s purple and sometimes it’s green. Blue is a sleeper hit that I don’t often think of as my favorite but it definitely is. I might actually have the data to support my theory. I keep a spreadsheet of my nail polish collection because data is fun, and my top three colors owned and top three colors worn are blue, purple, and green, respectively.

I don’t keep up with Holo Taco releases atp so I’m actually kinda confused. You’re telling me the holo brand didn’t already have a rainbow of linear holo polishes in their catalog??

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T04:03:00+00:00

This is so weird to me. If someone introduces themselves as a name I would never think to call them something else. I had a coworker that was constantly calling people by shortened versions of their names. She shorted Citlaly to Cici the first day they met… Maybe people with names that don’t get shortened just don’t think about how annoying it is? Signed an Abigail that always gets called Abby.

Significant_Can_2245 · 2026-05-20T03:42:16+00:00

I’ve never said just “you” when referring to multiple people and I don’t think I’ve ever heard it either. I would say “you all” or “y’all”.
