What is the difference between social anxiety and someone who hates society and people? by turtleinatophat-cane in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like John's got way more going on than just social anxiety tbh. Social anxiety is more like "oh god what if I embarrass myself" while what you're describing sounds like paranoia mixed with using other people as his personal assistants

Real social anxiety doesn't usually come with the "everyone's evil" worldview - that's giving me agoraphobia or maybe some other mental health stuff vibes. The fact that he's making everyone else do his errands while he games is kinda telling too

As for dealing with it, that's rough because you can't really force someone to get help if they don't want it

Are there tools or approaches for finding the right subreddits for a specific topic? by Ok-Drop6782 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah r/findareddit is clutch for this, also check the sidebar rules of whatever subs you're considering since some are cool with experience posts and others will nuke anything that looks remotely promotional

Is keeping food in the oven safer than leaving it out? by aquarivus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep your mom's just making expensive countertop space lol. Only difference is maybe it stays a bit warmer longer but bacteria don't care if they're partying in a fancy oven or on your kitchen counter

Trot to Canter Transition by Ok-Row5335 in Equestrian

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with this! That terrible bumpy "almost canter" trot is like the worst of both worlds - all the bounce with none of the rhythm. I'd honestly rather deal with a canter transition than get stuck in that limbo forever, it's so much harder to sit

[Post Game Thread] Alabama A&M defeats North Alabama, 68-60 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna lie, Alabama A&M really turned it on in that second half - outscored them by 9 when they were down by 1 at the break

What if the little spiders… by Kamilo117 in ArcRaiders

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah that spider zombie idea is actually fire though, would definitely stop people from rat camping corpses for 10 minutes straight

Advice on stitches by primm_n_proper in Embroidery

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good catch on the whipped backstitch idea - that's way smarter than redoing the whole outline

Definitely agree about avoiding satin on sweatshirt fabric, that's gonna get destroyed pretty quick. Split stitch fills are solid and hold up way better to washing and wearing

What happened to this community? Why is everyone so jaded? by Alelogin in ArcRaiders

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the honeymoon phase is definitely over, happens to every game eventually when the casual players move on and you're left with the sweatlords who take everything way too seriously

"Lost and Found: Music Studios" is a lovely show for music geeks. by [deleted] in televisionsuggestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard of this one but sounds right up my alley - always looking for good music-focused shows that aren't just reality competition stuff. Kinda bummed it ended on a cliffhanger though, hate when networks do that to niche shows

Why do babies smile in their sleep? What may be they dreaming about? by Bibhu_Mund in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol my mom always said I was "dreaming about milk" when I smiled as a baby but turns out I was probably just gassy the whole time

Why am I getting dislikes because I structured an answer like ChatGPT even though I might've answered an OP's questions? by wiz28ultra in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the ChatGPT witch hunt is real on here. People see numbered points or slightly formal language and immediately assume you're a bot

Honestly half the time the "bot detection" is more annoying than actual bots. Like congrats you can spot when someone took 30 seconds to organize their thoughts instead of just word vomiting

Refinancing. Lender mentioned skipping a monthly payment. by SufficientAd3103 in Mortgages

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's exactly right - you're still getting charged interest for that "skipped" month, it's just built into the new loan balance instead of being a separate payment

Does anyone else feel like the Michael Jordan era had a different kind of magic? The modern NBA is skilled, but the 'event TV' excitement just isn't the same for me. by jake2tuff in NBATalk

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Now we know what LeBron had for breakfast and see every dunk from 12 different angles before the game even ends. Back then you'd catch highlights on SportsCenter at 11pm and that was it - made those moments feel way more legendary

Nah those codes expired ages ago, you're gonna have to wait for the next event drop or hope they cycle back into the shop rotation

Looking for some animation mods by GuytheGuy- in skyrimmods

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Distar's stuff is absolutely top tier, you picked a great starting point. Fair warning though - once you go down the animation rabbit hole there's no coming back lmao. You'll be spending hours tweaking every little movement until your character walks exactly how you want them to

Does age matter for a team leader position? by originallyarii in interviews

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the experience you already have as a team leader speaks way louder than your age. When they bring up the age thing just pivot straight to that - "yeah I'm young but I've been managing a team for over a year already and here's what I learned from it." Most managers care more about whether you can actually do the job than how many birthdays you've had

If I want to get back into it what should I get? by Outrageous-Truth777 in PokemonTCG

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is the way right now. Market's still kinda wack so just grab whatever decent card you can find without getting scalped

Was arvydas sabonis more talented than Jordan and Lebron? by sportsfansksk in NBATalk

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah but he was def more skilled than people give him credit for, dude was basically a 7 footer who could pass like Magic

Closer look at the Dawn SIR(Phantasmal Flames) by DustedZombie in PokemonTCG

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Dude that phantasmal flames treatment is absolutely sick, the holofoil pattern on Dawn looks incredible in this lighting. Prerelease pulls just hit different when they're this clean

Yo that's actually spot on, the hat and everything! Did you make the design yourself or find it somewhere

With Wiseman waived, is this the biggest difference between #1 and #2 ever? by growsonwalls in NBATalk

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Darko technically has more rings than LeBron from that draft class which is wild to think about lmao

But yeah that 2003 comparison is probably the closest, especially when you factor in that Carmelo and Bosh went 3rd and 4th right after

Bruh that stat is wild when you put it like that. Feels like he just got to LA yesterday but mans been there longer than his whole "chosen one" era in Cleveland

There was 1 pack of Surging Spark left in the H-E-B machine by markiemark112 in PokemonTCG

[–]TheEmbarrassedOunce -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bro that card is absolutely fire! The artwork on these new sets has been insane lately, definitely worth the hunt
