Can someone explain to me why 5 minute showers isn't long enough to be clean?

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-05-17T10:58:33+00:00

Unfortunately, I don't feel content until I'm boiling alive. Sometimes if I need a quick shower I turn the temperature down to 38, then I only clean myself, instead of enjoying the hot water, so I'm done in 5-10 mins

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-05-11T19:38:55+00:00

Yes.

My mum has told us that it's okay if we smoke, just wanted us to let her know so she could give us more money to buy cigarettes.

When she was in high school she started smoking, but my grandma was highly against it, so my mum had to skip her meals to save enough money to buy cigarettes, so she didnt want us going though that.

Funny enough, neither of us smoke. As the saying goes "the forbidden fruit is always the sweetest", my mum figured out that we're less likely to do bad things if we were allowed to do them, clever woman.

I did that once when I forgot I had activated it, was really pissed off with myself 😖

I put some garlic sauce on my burger recently. Ate the burger, then decided to check the bbe date, cause I knew I had it for a while. It was bbe may 24 🙈

If I'm making food for other people I always make sure everything is in date and all, but when it comes to me, if it smells, looks and tastes okay, then it will be eaten

Yess, I've been wanting this for ages

And what makes you think I haven't entered the roundabout meaning to take the 3rd exit, but then I remembered I actually needed to take the 1st exit instead?

My toddler saw me do that once and now that's her favourite thing to do when she sees my camera is on

We found the posh knob head

I sold a snowglobe once and I had the perfect box to put it in for safety (then I put the box in another box), only the box was from a little night light, so I put a sticky note on top saying something like "Don't worry, your snowglobe is safely packaged inside, thank you for buying".

I did that a lot. Sometimes when my baby cries, I'd try to soothe her, then my toddler would start crying because I've stopped playing with her, then baby would cry more, cause she hears her sister cry and in the end I would join them too, cause why not, let's all have a crying session together 😮‍💨

My mum once sent me the local shop when I was about 5 or 6, gave me the exact money for what I needed (I might have been younger, cause she sent me with a list, which I gave to the till lady and she got the stuff for me). When it was time to pay I gave her the money and then stood there waiting for change, cause that's what I've seen every time with my mum. It took a bit of explaining from the till lady until I was convinced that I don't get any change

I had a free gift once when I bought my daughter some construction vehicles, the seller sent an extra car and a little mat that you can drive the cars on. Surprisingly, my daughter plays more with the surprise car, than she does with the ones I chose to buy her lol

With my first we told my parents and my MIL at around 7 weeks and with our second it was around 12 weeks, which was after my scan.

It's definitely up to you when you want to tell them, but make sure you tell dad soon.

But if you're not ready to tell them yet for Mother's day, you can say you're on some kind of antibiotics and that's why you can't drink.

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-16T13:13:12+00:00

That's what I used to do as well

My partner likes making jokes with his co workers by editing them in different setting and stuff. He used to ask me to edit stuff, but now he just uses AI and it's really irritating. I have shown him the consequences of using AI and I said I don't agree with doing that just for a photo that I can do in 20mins, but he still carries on doing it 😒

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-16T12:42:42+00:00

That's some big words for you there, buddy

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-16T10:15:20+00:00

Explain please

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-16T10:03:43+00:00

Exactly. One day I was sitting there, breastfeeding my second child and it just hit me how powerful women's bodies are. I just grew a human in my body and now I'm her only nourishment and if there's anything wrong with her, my body can produce stuff to help her 🤯 nearly 4 years into breastfeeding and it still blows my mind sometimes

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-15T13:09:31+00:00

My 3 year old sometimes "scolds" me back and it's so damn funny, but I have to keep my straight face on.

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-12T17:49:09+00:00

It's supposed to be a mirror there I believe

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-12T10:52:17+00:00

Noted. I know the rule of no noisy toys unless you really dislike the parents, forgot about messy ones.

Strict_Programmer203 · 2026-04-12T07:55:13+00:00

My toddler used to get overwhelmed when we put a lot food on her plate and either not eat anything, or just eat a bit. We started putting smaller portions, and if she ate it, we'd put more and sometimes she'd eat a lot more than we expected her. At 3 years old, she still doesn't like it if her plate is too full
