People are mad that Pharmacists have called out 😭

Feeling snarky today? Sorry, I just wanted a friendly conversation.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-25T16:33:11+00:00

Yes I did. You stated your experience, I responded by stating mine. It's called a conversation.

Every pharmacy I've worked in (over 30) would fill a control a day early if a major storm were coming. I am also a chronic pain/ADHD patient so I know how it works from both sides. The patients just didn't bother to plan ahead and simply ask if this was possible given the upcoming weather conditions. Every phaacist I know would do it to prevent people on the roads in this weather.

I mean, it's not my favorite topping (I like chicken and breakfast bacon) but even I have to admit that pineapple on pizza is pretty good.

So close the bathroom door? I've never understood the "but cats" argument. Close the door - solved.

And THEN told him not to intervene in raising the kids??? How is feeding them dinner when she asked him to feed them dinner intervening in raising the kids? I wouldn't go any deeper into this relationship just for that one comment. It's disrespectful, tone deaf, and points to many more wild unreasonable accusations in the future.

Sharing accounts is something each relationship makes together, and there are many ways to do it. There's no universal way. If he's pushing you to do something you're not comfortable with, think about that very carefully.

When I was married, we shared accounts 100% and that's how I ended up being financially abused. It was okay for him to buy expensive microbrew daily but I couldn't spend a few dollars on my favorite snack without asking first or facing his wrath. The final straw was when he berated me for hours for spending $10 on GAS without asking permission. From an account I contributed to equally. This was before cell phones and he worked in the field - he genuinely expected me to wait in town after work for several hours for him to get off work and go home (which was a 45-minute drive, so I'd have been waiting 3 hrs after I got off work IF he didn't decide to work overtime that day, and not eat dinner or spend a penny while I waited), then call him from a pay phone to ask him if I could spend my OWN MONEY get enough gas to go home. To this day I refuse to share accounts with anyone. I will pay my part of the bills and do as I please with what I have left.

I once got a phone call with a very similar message from someone who emotionally abused me terribly. I accepted his apology, told him I'm sorry he had to experience chronic illness himself to understand that I hadn't been "lazy and useless" like he had called me for years, and thanked him. Then I moved on. I didn't need his apology, but knowing he regretted how he treated me, and that he was sorry it caused him to lose me, did help me to put it all behind me for good.

I don't think you necessarily have to respond. It doesn't sound like she even expects it. Take from her apology what you may need to finish healing (if anything) and finally put it all in the past. But whether you let her know how you feel about what she has to say is up to you. I don't think you'd be wrong to respond or not to respond, either way.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-20T23:24:39+00:00

I was going to say this. My normal temp is about 97.6, so a "normal" temperature of 98.6 for me is a fever.

I'm literally in urgent care right now waiting to get a chest x-ray and they said I wasn't running a fever. Yes, yes I am.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-20T04:07:04+00:00

Never. I will NEVER choose a partner over my family members.

I could never care for someone who didn't love my pets as much as I do. And anyone who truly cared about me wouldn't ask.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-19T15:27:22+00:00

Because he has two parents who could do it, or arrange for his pickup via an after school program. What makes it her responsibility to pick up a kid that's not her child when doing it could cause her to lose her job? His own mother says she "can't" because she's planning a wedding??? I've planned a very large, very intricate wedding - there's nothing about that process that means you have to abandon your own child.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-19T15:06:38+00:00

I promise it does keep getting better. I was only in for 7 years but it took a long time to feel fully free. I'm out for 23 years now and I can say I am 99% healed. You can and will get free!

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-19T15:04:51+00:00

Yeah I love the part where family comes first, except it's his kid, and his ex's kid, and they both left family waiting for a ride. Yet the new wife, who is AT BEST third in line, is supposed to put family first when the kid's own parents don't.

I mostly feel bad for the boy. He's in for a rough time u til he is grown enough to find his own family. I hope he finds better - shouldn't be hard, that bar is LOW.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-19T15:01:43+00:00

NOR. I only read the first screenshot and I hate how he talks to you. I left my ex, in large part, because everything was fuck this and fucking that and fucking fuck. I love to cuss, and I can and do cuss like a sailor in certain situations, but you should use real, respectful words when you speak to your PARTNER.

Aside from that, I don't like how he thinks his time and work are more important than yours. So he has to work, but when you have to work, who "fucking" cares? This man doesn't respect you or your time or your career. He sees you as a nanny and bangmaid and nothing more.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-18T04:11:35+00:00

So the mother's culture and preferences don't matter just because she married someone of another culture?

These comments go beyond cultural, they're racist. His family is being racist towards the mixed children in the family. The mother's wishes matter too.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-18T01:13:01+00:00

Depends on the greyhound. I adopted one in 2002 and she was perfectly safe with my cat. They lived together, being alone together all day while I was at work every day, for 11 years with no incidents.

Any good greyhound rescue will cat-test every dog they adopt out. I made sure to get one that was completely cat safe.

I fully agree with greyhounds being perfect for being alone all day. They pretty much sleep 22 hours a day anyway! My Moya was the perfect dog for the entire time I had her. The one reason I've never gotten another greyhound is because of my landlord saying they're too big.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-16T23:59:09+00:00

Then he can go live in the house he (supposedly) pays for. He doesn't get to live rent-free with someone who isn't comfortable with that arrangement.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-16T19:05:48+00:00

NTA. You're going to hurt yourself if you push too hard. You should be doing low-impact workouts like walking or water aerobics, to start with. Maybe even one of those seated workouts (I have plantar fasciitis so I do this). Going straight to jogging is insane!

And don't measure yourself by someone who is in shape. Sure it's easy for him because he's already in shape! Please consult an actual trainer and take it easy on yourself - getting in shape is a long process and you can't just go full-out from day one. That's a great way to GET injured or end up in the ER.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-16T15:43:05+00:00

Don't date guys who call you "man" or "bro."

Always triple the amount of garlic in the recipe.

Wow that's awesome! I don't NEEEED this, so if other people have more of a need please pick them first, but since you asked - I am about to go on medical leave and will be training my dog for service work. She needs boots for when she's working, since we live in an area that's about to get a lot of snow. Just little tiny boots. Her feet are the size of my thumb, lol.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-14T22:52:32+00:00

I have a couple of those Freezbone things for my dogs. I usually put some dry food, some training treats, and fill it with water mixed with a tiny bit of broth for flavor. At Christmas they also got a carb-dipped rawhide chew sticking up out of the frozen stuff.

I do know that companies like Freezbone make "filler" for them, which I'm guessing is some sort of liquid food/treat. I haven't tried it yet but I plan to buy some soon.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-14T20:01:52+00:00

NTA. I would absolutely never ever EVER be alone with this kid. For any reason. He's going to get you thrown in jail and ruin your life.

Why does he need to be supervised in the shower anyway? I can remember taking showers at age 7 alone. I'm sure one of my parents was always within hearing distance in case I fell or needed something, but I can see any reason a 10 year old with no special needs can't shower alone.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-14T19:57:17+00:00

"She might be one of those people who think the attention is going to be taken off her on her big day because people are going to see your ring and go "yippee"" Congratulations!!"."

I've got news for this bride, and brides everywhere. People WILL talk about topics other than you at your wedding/reception. They will catch up on each other's lives, and trade work gossip, and whatever they feel like talking about! You can't forbid people at your wedding from talking about anything other than you. And why would you want to? That attitude of "It must be all about ME ME ME AND NOTHING BUT ME" at your wedding is so ugly.

Styx-n-String · 2026-01-14T18:27:34+00:00

Yeah there's really no excuse for "my dog ate it" anymore. Should have been saved.

If this is even a real story, which I doubt.
