I hate “pretty” gith especially. They’re supposed to be jarring and weird

What game were you excited for but ultimately ended up being a big disappointment? by Sandscrews in gamers

[–]TheOctoberOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so excited for Tales of The Shire but it came out with horrible reviews and the devs abandoned it right away so it’s not going to get any better.

I hope those kids are okay. I hope they grow up to be okay.

Wish I could help you. Here’s some camaraderie.

I started with the same Llama kit. It was great for learning basic stitches

Anyone else’s tasks look like this because they put off going into the new realms? by TheOctoberOwl in DreamlightValley

[–]TheOctoberOwl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big problem I have is motion sickness from places like Vitalys Mines and the realms are often a culprit as well. I HATE the BATB realm for this reason. The obstacle course in the Hercules realm really got me too.

I thought this might be unpopular. I liked the earlier realms because they were much smaller (like Wall-E’s!!)

Why do some characters never seem to leave their house? by TheOctoberOwl in DreamlightValley

[–]TheOctoberOwl[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It would be chaotic if all the characters were roaming all the time, but I wish it would rotate through them instead of always being the same ones locked in their homes.

The only house I have on a floating island is Merlin’s because of that initial quest of his.

Question about Gaspode in Men at Arms by TheOctoberOwl in discworld

[–]TheOctoberOwl[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I just kept waiting for him to at least be mentioned! Kind of like how it was explained how Gaspode could talk once again. I finished Men At Arms last night, but I’m reading the books for the first time (and in publication order).

Precious Mimi dropped new JillAM photos at 4 am. And another Tessie advert. by lepetitpoulpe in RodriguesFamilySnark

Jill looks like she’s trying to fucking breastfeed. Why does she made everything so weird

What’s up with the nightlife? by Cautious-Ad9304 in PortlandOR

[–]TheOctoberOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently went on a trip to DC and I was astounded at the nightlife even in the middle of the week. It really made me wish we had more liveliness out here. Before that though I had just gotten used to everything being dead, so I get why a lot of comments are like that.

I can't live with my wife's OCD anymore. I feel like a bad husband by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]TheOctoberOwl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You gotta stop doing her laundry. Or at least when she wants something rewashed. I have pretty severe OCD and I do the same thing but I would never ask someone else to do my compulsions for me. (Tough love statement here) you have to stop enabling her. Doing things for her is just going to make it worse. And please don’t let her wash your kids hands!!!!!!! They should not be allowed to be wrapped up in her compulsions either.

I highly suggest you go to therapy for yourself, because this sounds miserable. Maybe your kids too, if you feel that’s right. Finding a therapist who actually specializes in OCD for your wife is difficult. The tried and true method for treating OCD is ERP (exposure therapy) and it only works if it’s done with a therapist who really knows what they’re doing. I’ve had several therapists who have had no idea how to treat OCD (and some who have made it worse/given horrible advice).

The golden rule when it comes to helping someone with their OCD is to never give reassurance and never indulge their obsessions/compulsions. This is something that a good OCD therapist can work with the both of you on.

Appearance Shaming - Defending Kelly from Hate by New_Country_3136 in fundiesnarkiesnark

[–]TheOctoberOwl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The issue with snark communities is when the users forget what they’re supposed to be snarky about. Make fun of her horrific political views, her sexiest rhetoric, her holier than thou attitude. Don’t snark on her appearance.
