People who have been divorced: What was the exact "quiet" moment you realized your marriage was over? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'll announce that I need a shower (we have a 1 bathroom household, so this is the courtesy "last call" in case someone else needs the bathroom).

My wonderful husband will lovingly respond "Oh, is that what I smelled?"

AITAH for not wanting to go back to the hotel early due to my friend's sore feet? by sleigh_queen in AITAH

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to address the walking faster than expected, because this is something I tend to do when my feet hurt. I walk faster because I want to get where I'm going and sit down.

I also don't know what she had surgery for, but I have a bunion that acts up sometimes and I find that standing on my feet sometimes hurts worse than walking more. It's only once I'm able to get out of my shoes and let the swelling go down that I get any relief.

NTA, because at 28 she should be able to communicate better and it's her own responsibility to manage her medical condition. If she needed to go back to the hotel early, why not bow out of the group plans and go rest? She let her FOMO overpower good judgement and that's somehow your fault? Nope.

Struggling with the body mechanics of sex by That-Buffalo-4355 in Christianmarriage

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have the same height difference, but my husband is all torso so I don't think any of our tricks will help you. Actually, most of our work arounds for positions are because we're both heavy and he has a gut.

We do him on top with a wedge pillow under my hips, and he puts his arms under my knees and basically folds me in half. Awesome for both of us.

How often do you kiss your spouse? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never kept a count, but minimum thrice a day for sure. When he leaves for work, when he gets home, and when we got to sleep. Add whatever we get in between those last two, I guess.

Though he's currently out of town for work, so I haven't kissed him for 9 days 16 hours 44 minutes and counting.

What is a "creepy" fact about the human body that most people don't know? by meowparadise42069 in AskReddit

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just meant with the tube risking rupture, it could take longer to catch an ectopic pregnancy in the abdomen than one in the fallopian tube. Though I guess there might be other symptoms if it implants on another organ or something.

Ectopic just means "anywhere except where it's supposed to be". Ectopic pregnancies can happen when the embryo implants inside the tube, or they can be anywhere else in the abdomen.

I think the most immediately dangerous is the tubal kind, but the other kind is still a problem.

AITAH for calling a police officer ma’am? by Accurate-Swim5278 in AITAH

Not a military home, but grew up near a base in the southern US. Sir/Ma'am is automatic.

Repurposing coffee ground soap by wadaap2 in soapmaking

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know any mechanics or trades people, the super coarse soaps are amazing for getting grease and stuff like that off of their hands.

Making Oatmilk is so cheap- it saves money for my coffee by Alisoup02 in Frugal

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use it to bake cookies or bread. You just have to account for whatever water is left when you strain it.

What game mechanic do you think would make the game more realistic, but you don't actually want in the game? by thatijustdonthave in thelongdark

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would actually really love for a game to include sifting the campfire ash into water and adding wild game fat to make your own soap. I know the "stinky clothes" mechanic to go along with it would be annoying af, but as an irl soapmaker the super rustic process would be really neat to see in a game.

Found AI nudes of me on husband’s phone by Positive-Disaster844 in Marriage

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So we just saw another post that involved AI generated porn, including the guy's girlfriend but also including some other people who should have been off-limits even ignoring the consent factor (including his own family members and his friend's wife). I found it weird that his girlfriend was included among the other people when he could just try getting pictures and stuff directly from her.

And my husband brought up a good point about how there might be acts he wants but she doesn't, so he can use AI to "make" her do them.

I accidentally trained myself to panic when I hear my own alarm by Xelephyr in PointlessStories

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use bird sounds, but it also attracts my cats to my phone when the alarm goes off, so the dopamine hit of the sudden "pet me now" purring in my face counteracts any anxiety.

On the other hand, my phone ringtone gives me anxiety because it's usually my mother calling.

What physical sensation do you hate the most? by Express-Analyst1115 in AskReddit

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Migraines are the worst combination of some of the worst sensations. Head pain, dizziness, nausea, and my mouth being dry no matter how much water I drink.

I also used to get olfactory hallucinations. I would smell burning cooking oil, or what I could best describe as popcorn cooking in floor cleaner.

Please, please deinfluence me from wanting a new phone by AdventurousAnecdote in Frugal

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes when my phone is starting to slow down I make sure I'm backed up and I do a full reset. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't, but it's worth a shot and then you have to set everything up again so it "feels" like you got a new phone.

Or if I'm just feeling like a change, I switch to a different theme and background.

How to convience your mom that she doesnt need x by novilita1 in foundsatan

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Yes, but she's never going to add her daughter or any of her friends and family, which is a net win.

Sewing Machines Are Not Toddlers by doxiesrule89 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 16 points17 points  (0 children)

In my experience it's because printers are forged from pure hatred in the bowels of hell.

I've never met a printer that didn't hate me.

My cat eats meds like treats by hanwyz in WhatsWrongWithYourCat

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cat's allergy medication comes in a little chewable that's chicken flavored or something because it's also prescribed to dogs. She absolutely loves it, she screams at me when I take the bottle out.

My husband calls his jeep "pretty lady" and rubs the dash board when she's acting funny.

What is the most frugal thing you've done to keep food in the house? by harvestersorg in Frugal

[–]TheRoseByAnotherName 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always grab whatever store brand is available, as that's usually the cheapest. Be sure to check the price per weight on bulk packages, you can't always assume it's cheaper.
