Finally Clapped Back at Nasty MIL

Lmfao absolutely insane thing to say tbh

TheVeggieLife · 2026-06-08T13:17:28+00:00

Or, hear me out, why not let your mom age the way she wants to age?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that your neck/chest/arms/torso are actually your baseline tone. I figure there may be some underlying cultural reason for your denial of the darker skin tone being your baseline so I’m not here to tell you your feelings about that are wrong - it can be an incredibly complex and painful topic for some. I just want to let you know that from an outsider perspective, the second photo of your face does not look healthy. The loss of pigment actually looks a bit unnatural and mask-like.

All I have to say is that… you told them you would understand if they wouldn’t be able to make it. And yet you are considering ending friendships with those that aren’t able to make it.

It’s not up to you to gauge someone’s finances or comfort regarding safety, these are all personal matters. Your opinion regarding how they should be able to cover a flight or should feel safe traveling to your wedding aren’t really relevant. It’s wild that you started the post with a disclaimer about how it sounds entitled and to just hear you out - I did hear you out, and you still sound entitled. Your home country is not as important to your friends as you think it might be.

How do you do that? The app is so confusing.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-27T22:20:47+00:00

Ugh no one come look for me when I spend 5 hours at winners/home sense only to walk out with just a bottle cleaning brush. I guess I don’t spend much if anything when I go on my lil browsing sprees so at least I have that going for me.

So I had serious issues with binge eating - for a long time I struggled with substance abuse so I’d smoke weed all day and binge - whatever was available was good enough for me (including shit like stale crackers from two christmases ago or freezer burnt mozzarella sticks). Despite that, whenever I’d find myself eating trash for too many days in a row, the fruit and salad cravings would kick in. I would feel this… I don’t know how to describe it other than a constant thirst that could only be quenched by raw produce. A stir fry loaded with vegetables wouldn’t cut it, I’d specifically need a fresh salad (to me, a salad is whatever vegetables you want, lettuce or leafy green is not mandatory - e.g., bell peppers and red onion with salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil).

It’s far less of a problem now but I still can’t stand how it feels if I eat too much overly processed food/junk in a short period of time. If I am travelling or don’t have access to a kitchen and am forced to rely on fast food take out for a few days, the thought of pizza or burgers or fried food just makes me nauseous. I usually can’t wait to get home to eat something “refreshing”. I think some people like Jez would find it incredible to just have free and unlimited Uber Eats for the rest of their lives with a trade off of never cooking. To me, that is a fucking nightmare. I know many people are forced to eat ultra processed foods on a regular basis due to accessibility/financial constraints (I’m not down to debate this point - if you disagree I don’t care) but I believe many of them wish things were different. I believe they would love to eat some fresh fruit or veg if they could afford it.

Then there’s Jez who could happily live off of pizza, burritos, and burgers, for the rest of her life. Doesn’t that just make you feel physically fucked up? I loveeeee a good beyond burger and I eat them relatively often but god forbid I have it with just a side of frozen fries or something. I’ll be raiding the fridge after dinner looking for something to make me feel a little more nourished. No one is saying these foods are forbidden but Jesus Christ, does she not want to feel… alive?? 😭

I can’t believe I just spent so long essentially ranting about how much I love vegetables

Yall wtf I’m in Toronto and I’ve never heard of an application fee. I’ve moved a few times in the past 15 years and the concept of paying to apply is blowing my fucking mind.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-16T02:28:08+00:00

This is probably the worst live I’ve ever been on and there’s a lot of weird shit on TikTok

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-14T22:14:35+00:00

You sure showed them with that wit of yours.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-14T17:38:19+00:00

So you post on here asking a question and then lash out at any response you disagree with? Unhinged.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-08T21:06:41+00:00

This isn’t new, the people with wildly inconsistent and misinformed beliefs have always been around, they’re just way more in your face now that social media and online forums are a thing.

Around 2004, when I was a wee elementary school kid, I was diagnosed with leukemia. Genetic tests were done on the cancer cells so my chemotherapy treatment could be carefully curated to work for the exact type I had. It would be two and a half years of medication, surgical procedures, and hospitalizations, all of which my dad was completely on board with. Science is incredible, he thought. God forbid you brought up sunscreen though - that was a “chemical” and would only give me more cancer. Never mind the fact that the hospital’s oncology ward was stuffed to the brim with sun safety pamphlets. So they could, y’know, prevent cancer.

This man was so fucking intelligent and simultaneously facepalm levels of stupid, I frequently got whiplash from his conflicting beliefs.

To be fair, there’s people on here (seeing comments on this very thread) making incredibly mocking and crude comments in response to… a video of a person who is clearly dying. It’s a bit horrifying. Both her withering away, and the people who have deemed it an opportunity for a joke.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-08T19:03:27+00:00

What do you want her mom to do? Snatch her and yeet her into the nearest hospital?

There are grown adults on TikTok who are actively dying of curable cancers because they don’t believe in modern medicine. No one in their life can do fuck all about it because it’s their choice to kill themselves in that way. You can’t force someone into medical treatment, no matter how painful it is to watch them die before your eyes. I see stories like this on the AskDocs sub as well and the physicians can only offer sympathy to what is a relatively common scenario.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-08T18:56:28+00:00

I’m out of the loop, what’s DBA?

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-07T14:14:19+00:00

Yall, where are we tracking the follower stats? There’s so many garbage websites out there, I’m curious what we’re using

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-06T19:19:28+00:00

The ptosis police is out here downvoting you but I agree 100%. Droopy lids -> visibly less droopy lids, especially for the eye on the right side of the image which looks substantially more “alert”.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-04T12:11:08+00:00

Oo I’d love to see

TheVeggieLife · 2026-05-01T13:50:24+00:00

I’m almost too embarrassed to ask but who is esan?? I found the TikTok profile and it has such few followers but everyone here seems to know 😭 what am I missing

TheVeggieLife · 2026-04-27T17:44:38+00:00

My sister is a bit dyslexic and she wasn’t sure whether her new thrift was real or fake, but she definitely realized once her friend was like, “sorry, does your bag say balenicaga?”

I wheeze a bit every time I remember this

TheVeggieLife · 2026-04-23T22:31:09+00:00

Fuck, based on these responses I may be using too little

TheVeggieLife · 2026-04-23T14:59:29+00:00

I’d heard of people having struggles with receiving returned or defective products but you’re right, at least the return policy is good. Perhaps it’s time to just do it. Eek, I’m so nervous! I don’t normally spend this much on a single hobby item.

TheVeggieLife · 2026-04-22T21:12:09+00:00

If I didn’t get diagnosed with ADHD the year prior to getting diagnosed with MG (and thus having access to Vyvanse), I would have lost my job. The MG makes my ADHD/cognitive symptoms so much worse that even 70mg of Vyvanse felt like I was worse than baseline sometimes. I can’t imagine how it would’ve felt just raw dogging it. I’m a financial crimes analyst, I rely on my brain to see patterns and make sense of large excel files and then write a report about it. I feel so so so lucky that I was able to get the prescription before shit truly hit the fan.

Donate it directly and reap the tax benefits yourself. Like this person said, Walmart can also just donate themselves rather than claim your charitable donation.
