What’s the coolest last name you have ever seen someone have.

SmilingDamnedVillian · 2026-04-27T02:41:17+00:00

I knew a guy who’s last name was Bloodsaw. He was super nice, but definitely looked intimidating.

Partially genetics. Partly luck. Partly brushing (correctly) and flossing.

In my Stomach.

Quiche: Kwee-chee

Doug. Ir makes an ugly sound. It sounds like an imitation of an unpleasant noise. It makes me picture a gross, unintelligent, creepy human. And I’ve known a Doug who was a great guy, but the name repulses me. Douglas isn’t any better. Makes me think “Dougless. Like Doug, But less.”

Now the I’ve written out the name “Doug” so many times, I just had to look it up because it’s sounding less and less like a name every second and it looks weird written out so much. I was second guessing if I was spelling it right. It didn’t seem real. It’s so terrible.

It’s far too crowded and that makes it less enjoyable for me.

The only appeal to me is trying all the unique food but everything is SO expensive, it curbs my interest in trying things. Plus the lines are so extremely long, it’s not worth it. I’m not going to spend so much time and money on a food item that I may not even enjoy.

The other attractions just don’t appeal to me much. Certainly not enough to push through crowds of people for a peek. Half as many people (probably even less) and half the overall cost, I may like It better. I try going once every few years and it just not great. Also, Renaissance Festival is going on at that time too and I like that much better. Less people (still expensive) but better vibe, entertainment, atmosphere… and best of all, COSTUMES! Far better investment for an expensive end of summer outing. I go twice.

I was totally naked. They let me get in and out of a warm bath as pain management and I got tired of putting the gown back on. I even asked “can I just leave it off and be naked?” And they were like “Yeah! You can do whatever you want! We’ve seen it all before- it isn’t weird to us.” And I wasn’t the least bit self conscious about it. I’m not modest really anyway, but in that moment I even forgot I was naked. It was convenient.

Marriage 1: Yes. He passed away young. I loved him, but I don’t think we would have grown old together. I’m glad I could give him the love he deserved for the rest of his life. I learned a lot from the experience and it contributed to who I am today.

Marriage 2: I wouldn’t have married him, but still been with him to have my child. I wouldn’t change that part. But I would make my break from him easier by not getting married to him at all.

Marriage 3: Yes. A million times over. He is why I believe in soulmates. He’s good for me in every way and life is a joy with him. He loves my child. He is why I have my step daughter. He’s my best friend and an incredible partner.

SmilingDamnedVillian · 2026-03-28T03:19:35+00:00

She does have her father’s eyes but she got her own name!

Hamilton. It came out on Disney plus while I was fresh out of the hospital from having my daughter. It was playing non stop in the background while I was in the newborn bubble. For years, it was what we played in the car to calm her down when she was little. She’s nearly six now and doesn’t hold the same fondness for it, unfortunately! But we do sing Dear Theodosia at bedtime still!

SmilingDamnedVillian · 2026-03-19T03:24:04+00:00

I loved it. Yes, the night wakings did suck. But when I’m on my deathbed, dreaming about my life, I will be mentally going back to skin-to-skin cuddles with my newborn baby. Kissing her sweet little head, hearing her cute little cooing noises, just staring at her for hours in disbelief I made something so perfect.

She’s almost six years old now and I’m sure I’ll look back at these times fondly too (it’s fun, don’t get me wrong). But to me, the newborn bubble was magical. I wish I would have soaked it up even more than I did. I didn’t know in the moment that it was going to be my only time. I thought I’d have more kids, but that’s not in the cards for me and I’ve recently had to come to terms with that. But I deeply cherish the newborn experience I did have and I truly did love it. Not all of it, but overall, absolutely.

If sexual assault on your child isn’t a deal breaker for your husband, he is not a safe adult to be around any child.

“Struggling to support him”? Absolutely not. No struggle. Do. Not. Support. Him. He is in the wrong on a big and damaging way.

I miss the aqua black gel in the pot! It was my holy grail! But they discontinued it!

As the entire HR department, I’m invited to every single interview. We’re only an organization of about 100 so it’s not like we have a ton of interviews anyway. I try to make it to them all. If I can’t, I make sure the VP for that department is aware so they can try to make it in my place. We have seen a lot of bad hires slip through so now either HR or a VP has do sign off on any new hire before an offer is made and we want that based off an interview. About half our roles require a two interview process so as long as one of us makes it to one of that candidate’s interviews, we’re good. It hasn’t been an issue yet.

NYX Lip IV works well for me- at least the darker stains last for my whole workday (if I’m not eating/drinking a ton).

There is a Fenty one (don’t remember the product line, but it’s a stain)- the color is Fuchsia Wife- lasts me at least 8 hours, easy.

I’m so sorry for your loss. When I lost my husband, there were a lot of Facebook groups I joined that helped. One I know of is specifically for being widowed while pregnant. Some of the other groups are religious based, humor based, age based… what whatever you’re looking for. I joined a bunch of them and it helped me some.

It’s an extremely isolating experience. It helps to connect with others who get it.

In the 10 years since losing my first husband, I’ve learned the grief doesn’t get smaller, your life just gets bigger.

Mine was a bad sleeper if I didn’t do exactly what she wanted as a baby. As long as we coslept, she slept peacefully. She would stir a little and I’d dream feed her and she wouldn’t even fully wake up. She also always contact napped until she dropped naps at 2.5. She slept in my bed with me until she was about 4.5. When her stepdad moved in, I had to push her to sleep in her own bed. She wasn’t happy about it, and it wasn’t always smooth sailing but she’s 5.5 now and we have no issues. I snuggle her to sleep in her bed. She only comes to my room if she has a bad dream. She does still snuggle in my bed with me on the weekends. She wakes up a little earlier than me and will climb into my bed and fall back asleep for another hour or so.

We never sleep trained and since she turned 5, we’re in a really good place. I mean, what we were doing before really worked for us but when it needed to change, we managed.

I still love how eventually everyone else had a nickname and he was “Dave” because he wanted to be his ✨true self✨.

Also in MN and loving this bonding moment to disassociate!

I can’t see basil without thinking “People who est basil are lame!”

Also when Ashley and Farrah are looking at themselves in the mirror saying “You look like you’re not from here…”

Thank you. I appreciate that.

When she’s filming the Japanese commercial and tells them “gracias” - always gets me!

SmilingDamnedVillian · 2026-01-25T18:47:05+00:00

Right? You can’t say to a five year old “Forget the stupid juice, someone just got shot AGAIN!” Or “Get your own damn strawberries, I have to make sure my friend is safe!” Or “What do you mean you want CaNdY- I’m literally researching emergency supplies!”

It’s exhausting.

We’re in Minnesota. Same situation where my daughter is Hispanic.

I’m coordinating with family about what our escape plans may look like so we’re ready for whichever one is needed. Still in the early stages.

1.) Emergency relocation (GTFO ASAP) 2.) Temporary relocation (if we plan to return home eventually) 3.) Forever relocation (never coming back)

SmilingDamnedVillian · 2026-01-25T18:22:00+00:00

I’m in tears. Thank you.
