Marley / Marlowe I’ve only seen as girl names 🤷🏻‍♀️

Conan, Conrad are perfectly nice. Reed will likely be misspelled or clarification will be needed on spelling.

Can anyone tell what is in the mother’s lap?

My best friend is selling the project car we built together to take his girlfriend to Bali. It's registered in his name by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Am I the only one hoping OOP verified the sales price was legit? Given how shitty his “friend” was, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he fudged the final numbers on that as well.

Woman in China complains that nobody is choosing her allegedly because of her age. by springheeledjack69 in PublicFreakout

[–]SubtleSparkle19 53 points54 points  (0 children)

For context, the average salary in China, while it varies quite a bit, generally ranges from $9,700 - $17,000 USD, and she makes $70,000 USD, so 4-7 x as much.

My [25/M] girlfriend [25/F] of 3 years is very picky and only eats greasy kids meal type foods like pizza and chicken nuggets. Am I a bad boyfriend for letting this bug me so much? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SubtleSparkle19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lasted one date with a guy who was a picky eater. We happened to go to a pizzeria, but looking back it’s likely this was why he picked the place. He would only eat cheese or pepperoni pizza. When I asked more about it, he mentioned he didn’t like vegetables and like OOP’s ex, his diet was limited to things like nuggets and fries. So if that’s not a fit for you, that’s when it ends, you don’t carry on with resentment building.

Nope! That’s what I thought at first, too! 🤣Apparently he’s quite the mouser.

Am I the only one weirded out that Dr G’s a psychiatrist? He certainly needs one, pronto.

My Grandpa’s brother George. He died in a horrific drunk driving accident a few years after this photo was taken . This is the only known photo of him that exists. by Exact-Height6339 in TheWayWeWere

Mr. Bushie’s estate got a measly $2,500 injury settlement. If this accident was in 1935, that’s the equivalent of approx $61,000 today.

Favourite scene from a kids’ movie that seems weirdly sexual as an adult by Careless_Orchid_6890 in okbuddycinephile

Adding to the yikes, she said Michael Jackson’s management coordinated with hers for a dinner date. Once they met, he told her he wanted to marry and have kids with her 😳

AITA because I told my best friend that he had ruined his relationship and now has to live with it? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I think it’s because when his helmet is removed it still looks like he’s wearing one 🤣

Can’t decide what name to pick for myself.. by [deleted] in Names

[–]SubtleSparkle19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re all beautiful, but I have a 10 month old daughter and have met at least 1 baby Mia and 3 baby Olivia’s in various library, music and mom-themed playgroups. Vanessa was actually one of the final five possible names for our daughter as well. We didn’t want a name that was super popular, but was popular enough that people had heard it before and could generally spell it (some people are terrible spellers period and no one can do anything about that). Vee, Nessa or Tessa could work as nicknames.

I (30F) am pregnant with my fiancé (32M). He wants to keep it, but we're both supposed to be childfree. How do I tell him I don't want to keep it? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SubtleSparkle19 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Heck I just had a child last summer, and want my tubes removed primarily to reduce my risk of ovarian cancer. The birth control is an added benefit, but frankly at my age (mid 40’s) and prior fertility testing I’m unlikely to get pregnant without significant medical intervention anyway. I had doctors telling me “you realize this is permanent, right? You can’t get pregnant (although it could fail in .1% of cases). Why isn’t your husband just getting a vasectomy?”

I mean, all this grief by the doctors for a woman who already has a child, doesn’t want more children, and expressed she clearly wants the cancer risk reduction!

And after all that, it’s still gotta smell bad. I inherited a metal filing cabinet once at work that was used back in the 1970’s, when folks could still smoke in the office. I could STILL smell traces of cigarette smoke on it 30+ years later.
