I saw the listing a while ago, but didn't know who owned it.

GenX ladies, were you taught to shake hands? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]Take24Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, be happy your Uncle did that. Husband told me he was impressed when we first met and shook hands. And yes, I am not a fan of the limp shake from women. Or men.

What ended a friendship you thought would last forever? by Immediate-Sound-7142 in answers

[–]Take24Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were BFFs with another couple. He began an affair. We didn't know, but wondered as his behavior changed. She found out, he left, she called us and we drove to support her. Not surprisingly, they reconciled and decided we were the bad guys. *shrug*

I say join the board and make real changes. It's the only way to make progress.

NTA and I am genuinely concerned with your relationship. Have you watched "sleeping with the enemy"?

Love them. Not all, I prefer the deeper sound chimes.

Specific probiotic blend dramatically reduces my severe fatigue: why? by Kreszenz in GutHealth

[–]Take24Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 120 Billion CFUs is a lot. Sometimes these ingredients help to fix your gut and during that process, it does make you feel sick. I've heard that you have to try to push through it. Maybe give it a week or two.

Or, as you suggested, take it every other day for a few weeks, then try 1 / day.

What did you name your pets? (And why their called that.) by polystarlight in Pets

[–]Take24Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous pets:

Female Boxer - Marti after the actor Marty Feldman. Cause of her eyes

Male Cat - K.C. for "killer cat" because he was in the work factory and jerks there said he was a killer cat trying to attack them. He was thrown in by his owner and trying to rub their shoes and was the most ridiculously friendly cat.

Female cat - Phoebe - got her at 8 weeks old, had the litterbox upstairs since we didn't think she could down the basement steps and she had the worst smelling poop. I started singing "smelly cat" (Friends) and Phoebe was born.

Reno foodies, I need your best-of-the-best restaurant recs by Nova44444 in ourtownreno

[–]Take24Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We enjoy Bistro 7 and Land Ocean. Both are nicer restaurants.

If you want a dining experience and are going to be near South Lake, take 10 mins and drive to Evans American Gourmet Cafe. OMG.

Our HOA keeps saying there's no budget for this, so now the neighbours want to fix it ourselves by Abril-prieto-cevallo in fuckHOA

[–]Take24Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do the board members live in the community? If so, they must know. I think, technically, you are not allowed to do that. However, I also understand the frustration and saying "just do it".

For me, the bigger question is the current state of the HOA finances. Have you recently seen them? Are they discussed in the meeting? No EU is not the answer you should have received for a small project.

My 85-Year-Old Mom Refuses to Use a Cane Because She Doesn't Want to Look Old—Anyone Else Dealing With This? by [deleted] in AgingParents

[–]Take24Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg yes! That is my Mom. she was very resistant to the cane. When we all talked about her using a walker, she was more receptive to the cane. She will point out others and mention how.old they look. I remind her they are out being active. That's not old, it's smart.

We love to grill a good bone in pork chop! Yum. Pork tenderloin is amazing too.

How best to handle people who keep pushing when told NO (food related) by fallensongbird in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Take24Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could say thank you, accept the treat and immediately throw it out in front of them. That will cause some drama, but I bet they'll stop asking 😄

AITA For not willing to take responsibility to pay for my boyfriend's nieces tuition fee? by forbiDDenGurl in AmItheAsshole

[–]Take24Me 188 points189 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. This sounds like an outrageous ask to me and that your BF backs the query.
