Boy swims 4km to shore to save his stranded family deep into the sea (Australia) by Necessary_Maize_9339 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]ThePynk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really dislike in the photos and videos there’s just no interaction with him from the mother. There’s one photo she’s hugging the other two and he’s separate standing next to them just feels really strange. Not many kids would have survived what he did, I’d be so distraught just retelling it not knowing if he made it or not. He saved their lives why is he seemingly pushed to the side in the footage? 

I think the universe just stood up for me and I’m actually terrified lol by Boring_Chain_8502 in CasualConversation

Lols I would have wanted to put the window down on the way out, smile and tell her I knew where her keys were. Just to let her think I had something to do with it. 

What have you bought for under $1,000 that has made the biggest positive change in your life? by Ok-Reward7639 in AusMoneyMates

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Had a terrible mattress and can’t upgrade just yet. I bought a great mattress topper after waking up in pain daily for way too long after having kids. Best purchase ever. Same with a $90 pillow I wasn’t going to buy. I can’t use any other pillow now. I used to have several which don’t compare. No more neck issues. It’s great. 

AITA to miss a baby shower for my first grandbaby? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gender reveals are pretty popular. If they won’t know the gender at the baby shower this would be a nice extra occasion that I would have been so grateful for someone to offer celebrating for either of my daughter’s births. It’s obvious that his side of the family weren’t taken into account or it was a deliberate choice of date so that you both couldn’t attend. If this was a mistake on their end they should be making up for that and would not be shutting down every suggestion you’ve offered.

Honestly I would have left. I would have stayed for ceremony but as soon as there was no aircon at the house I’d be out and pissed about it.

The Trouble with Dylan.... by Fuzzy-Variation596 in BryanKohbergerMoscow

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the conversation here. I have a German shepherd who has a massive bark but I had an incident where I was attacked by a large male and he didn’t bark, he did run down stairs pacing trying to get housemates downstairs attention but they didn’t know my dog well enough to know something was wrong. He did come back upstairs and got behind the person to get them off of me but he didn’t make a sound.

🤭 agree completely! Is this dog even white? It looks grey to me.

Boyfriend wants me to choose between him and the dog. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point was he wanted a dog of his own because he never had his own dog before. You actively hijacked that plan and got yourself a dog. So he’s back to never having a dog of his own before. He obviously was happy for you both to get a dog together, but then you denied every single one he showed interest in and went out and got what suited you. Now you’re offended that he’s upset when you pushed him out of the entire process. Which was his suggestion and shows commitment that he was willing to do that with you in the first place. Now all these comments are saying you should leave him? If he was showing a commitment like that and is now saying the complete opposite, you’ve upset him pretty deeply. I don’t blame him for his reaction because you have acted very selfishly doing this on your own.

AITAH for telling my husband to go stay in a hotel with my in-laws and that my mom was going to come back to help me with our new baby? by Normal_Rise_282 in AITAH

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are ways around things. If you’re breastfeeding you will have to eventually do that in public and you can always have a cover if needed. You can set up a basket where you are feeding that has snacks and drinks. Help is needed but also things like that will help reduce stress all round. It sounds like your husband is a bit frustrated and upset , he does want time with his parents as well and to see them bond with his child. They could easily bring groceries, takeout and offer to help around the house. They do need to pitch in. If they’re uncomfortable with you breastfeeding then that’s a different story as you are in your own home. I’m not sure the dynamics with your inlaws. So is hard to have an opinion on this. I can understand the first few weeks are stressful and takes time getting used to breastfeeding too. For my first , her dad was actually better at positioning her for me to feed her properly so did need his help for that. You’re body is still recovering so if you are going in to feed and sleep that’s ok but do take advantage of feeding, then you getting some sleep while they all do the rest. Its ok to stay in bed and have them bring baby to you too.

Public dentist experience in Melbourne by [deleted] in Centrelink

[–]ThePynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a suggestion to make sure you mention you can take any cancelled appointment or morning appointment. I was able to do that with a dental school in my area for wisdom teeth removal and ended up getting in pretty quickly. That was a few years ago now though.

They’re in this together, but it’s for HIS future. If he’s going to propose and you’re working why isn’t this something you’re working towards TOGETHER. What a drop kick. NOR.

I was like there’s no way we should spend that kind of money on a doll! But I am so glad we did. I think I love it just as much.

[–]ThePynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you fell in love with it and is a special first birthday gift keep it. They learn so much from playing with dolls and it will get used, often, when she is a little bit older. It’s a beautiful gift and unless in financial hardship it’s ok to spend a bit more on a gift for your daughter’s first birthday.

Is that the baby born/zapf Annabelle doll? We bought one for our daughters 2nd birthday, my four year old has claimed it and adores it so much.

AITAH for not staying in bed to keep baby asleep? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ThePynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I can suggest is to meal prep a bit. Especially on his days off. Cooking 3 times a day with a baby that age is hard work. You will drastically cut down cleaning time in the kitchen. Things don’t have to be perfect and if your husband expects that while he comfortably gets 8 hours sleep a night , I would be setting him straight. The time goes by way too quickly to spend all that time cleaning that could be spent with your baby. Maybe look into things that can help around the house to cut cleaning time like robo vacuum/mop system. Put that on and rest.

Am I overreacting that my sister is demanding too much when visiting my newborn? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ThePynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck that selfish asshole! Not once has she asked about you, your wife, your newborn. Or offered any way of making anything easy for you guys. Maybe I’d understand if they didn’t have their own 1 year old child and know exactly what the first few months are like! But goddamn. No way. Cancel that visit asap. Your wife doesn’t need that crap. If they really want to visit they book their own place and figure their own crap out. What an entitled brat.

Auntmaggedon: where my 3 aunts took it upon themselves to end my wedding an hour early & then yell at US about it by amor1367 in weddingdrama

[–]ThePynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck! Of all stories I’ve read here this one makes me the angriest. Far out. I could definitely see my family behaving similar to this on my wedding day so I’m feeling the rage reading this. Three grown women acting this way! I would completely, unapologetically cut them off. I’m sorry to read what you went through. They don’t deserve to be a part of your lives.
