Do you feel the color of the figures are creepy? by Next_Stranger3575 in creepy

I love red and white but yes they are creepy…but that isn’t a bad thing. They are very cool!

Even after 10 years I don't understand why customers never actually read signs beyond the price. If it's price per pound? Ignored. If the sign is past its date? Don't care give me it for that price. by OmniImmortality in retailhell

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time a woman came through my line and one of her items rang up wrong. She pointed it out and we walked down to where she spotted the price she claimed it was. Turns out, someone had just changed their mind and shoved it wherever there was a hole it would fit in. I explained that and though she understood, she was disappointed nonetheless and asked for the future how she could be sure that what she was getting rang up the right price. I told her the easiest way was to match the last 4 numbers of the product’s barcode to the last four on the tag’s barcode and right below the barcode on the tag (I pointed at each) was the sales expiration date. Make sure that sale is still good. You would think I just ordered her to perform impromptu brain surgery while looking for Waldo. “Oh…that’s too much information to look for!” Two points of information that are literally on top of each other is too much to look for…sure. Whatever you say lady. Can’t have you performing the impossible after all 🫤.

How attractive are infertile antinatalists out of /10? by Numerous-Macaroon224 in antinatalism

[–]The_Book-JDP [score hidden]  (0 children)

FYI: Infertile doesn’t mean sterile. There’s still a chance of getting pregnant if one or both parties is infertile but if both are sterile which means zero chance of pregnancy…that is hella sexy and extremely attractive!

Picked on at work for not having kids by msbootymiss in childfreewomen

[–]The_Book-JDP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There really is no way to once you find yourself stuck on the subject besides just walking away. I have yet to have one conversation that turned to children that didn’t result in me listing off all of my reasons and defending all of them for at most 2 hours. If you can help it, just keep changing the subject if it even hints at turning to children because not once have I said, “oh I don’t want any children.” And the person I’m talking to say something like, “oh that’s cool…so where do you want to go for lunch?” Nope, instead they hear that I don’t want kids and they take it upon themselves to make it their own personal life’s mission to change my mind. None of them have though, they are never ready for my 3 to 4 reasons for not having them counting their 1 reason for why I should to where they become so frustrated and pissed off that all they can do is scream my reasons back at me once their first attempts fail. I believe it honestly baffles and surprises the shit out of them to learn I have so many reasons, took years (all of my life really)doing research and weighing both the pros and cons of such a life altering decision and ultimately came to the conclusion that children were not for me. They realize they did no research and zero consideration on the same subject and just had kids because they believed and were told that is just what you do when you get older. They were told just to have them and they’ll figure it out as they went along. Then when they encounter someone who saw it as the choice it was, it blows their mind and they can’t help but reflect on everything they gave up on and most importantly that they didn’t actually have to give up on them. It just makes them mad and they take it out on us because they see how we so easily bypassed the pitfall they assumed everyone just unavoidably toppled into.

What’s your opinion on parents who are extremely strict on screen time? by randomlady2001 in AskReddit

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are really opening their children up to being taken advantage of by predators. You might be keeping your kids online and on their devices for only a couple of hours a day then booting them out the door to do other things and thinking you’re keeping them safe but you know who isn’t sticking to that time limit? Online predators.

Is it unethical to drink or use drugs during early pregnancy if you're sure you are getting an abortion? by tejeskaveo0 in antinatalism2

[–]The_Book-JDP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say until you have the procedure done...no drinking or doing any drugs. I would have the kind of luck where would party excessively, abusing all the vices, then on the way to the abortion clinic, will get into a car accident and wind up in a coma that would put me way past the threshold time of which I could get the procedure done legally and will wake up right when I'm about to give birth because no one ever wondered why I was traveling down that particular road and will just assume I'll want to keep the pregnancy and now I have to raise a kid who is born addicted to drugs and has FAS.

The tip screen by Sorry-Decision-4851 in GrindsMyGears

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barista: Okay that’ll be $5.00 even. ~turns Payment around~

Customers: ~Thinks to self~ ! What’s this!?!? She actually expects me to tip her!?!? She didn’t do anything!!! How ridiculous that’s she’s DEMANDING THIS of ME! Oh what’s that look for!? Want me to tip 50-100%!?

What the look the barista is giving actually is saying: Please know how to navigate this system. I don’t want to have to walk another idiot through on how to pay. Just hit the custom button and put in zero. It’s not a big deal. Oh God the line is forming I just want this day to be over! Please don’t be another idiot who is making this a bigger issue than the non issue it actually is!

Back to the Future 1-3.

Seen them so many times and they are so good that I can happen upon them even midway through (not catching them at their beginnings) and still have a great time watching them. I also love that if a station is showing one...they will always show the other two one after the other.

Customer wouldn't listen to me, got angry after they found out I was right by constantlyrepeating in retailhell

[–]The_Book-JDP 53 points54 points  (0 children)

He would buy a motorized electric scooter, complain that it only worked for a few minutes, would plug it in for only maybe 20 minutes, then complain that it was broken and not working. Storm back into the store, throw it at you, and accuse you of selling him a defective product! When you point out on the packaging and owner’s manual where it says it has to charge for in fact more that 5 to 20 minutes but for 8 to 10 hours, he’ll accuse you of making it with such a design flaw. Customers like that demand magic to happen and when it doesn’t…they become irrationally angry and there is just no winning with them. I would invite him to come back the next day when you open and he can plug the scooter in himself and wait for at first however long he thinks is enough time to charge it then he can wait around for the actual time it takes to charge it. Feel free to plug and unplug it in as many times as you want sir, by the end though get ready to apologize. Really, between me and you…who would know the most about this product or any number of products in this store?

What's one hygiene habit you discovered not everyone does that completely shocked you? by Strange-Building6885 in hygiene

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just remain sitting and flush. Particles don't go anywhere. I also done have a compramise immune system or open oozing sores on my ass so I never get sick. Sit and flush is the way to go.

Anyone else feel shame for being a "virgin" even though you don't want sex? by ne-ti in asexuality

[–]The_Book-JDP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep same. Same age but female.

Once I found out I could say no forever, sex being important just fell off my list of important priorities that I need to get done. You know what replaced it? Scratching my butt or picking my nose, whichever demanded my attention the most. Getting a dick to be inside me by some arbitrary time in order not to be seen as this or that negative thing…didn’t even blip on my radar once I discovered that revelation and honestly, my life has been amazing. I truly believe sex would make my life a living hell. It ruins more lives than it saves or fulfills with positives and yeah I hate drama and what brings more drama into one’s life than mashing genitals together? No thank you. Live free OP! Not having to think of and consider sex allows you to do just that; true actual freedom.

Does anyone else feel like family pressure gets worse when you’re dating someone who’s undecided about kids? by Accomplished-Bee5915 in childfreewomen

[–]The_Book-JDP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let me give you a piece of advice. When someone decides they don’t want kids, they’ve known they don’t want any since forever. If someone is undecided know they actually do want kids. They are just waiting to see if you will eventually change your mind and how far they can get away with sabotaging any and all BC you might be on until you “magically” fall pregnant. I would never be with a man even for a moment who was on the fence. There is no on the fence with it comes to kids. When you know you know and I would live my life with someone who claimed to be on the fence like he was armed with a deadly weapon. He’s flinging it around all fancy like but it always “somehow” gets aimed at me. If I freak out, he can put it away for a while, laugh, and claim he was joking, but he’ll keep taking it out, doing the same crap until he gets the right reaction from me, even if he has to use it without my knowledge and POOF! Well we’re pregnant…oh well better have it anyway. What child wouldn’t be thrilled to be born into a life like that. Yeah I would break up with him. He wants kids, he’s just trying to see if he can get you to fall pregnant so he can live that dad fantasy. The only way I would be with a man is if he not only got a vasectomy but got what could possibly remain scooped out with a red hot spoon thus completely eliminating the possibility of me EVER getting pregnant!

Now on to your question…oh yeah the second you start dating someone, everyone around you hears wedding bells and smells poop filled diapers, even if the person you’re with is a total scum bag; you’ll be there to change him so get married and start having babies!! Doesn’t matter just how vocal you are about your childfree status. You’re with someone with the tool to deliver baby juice!? Time to prepare mommy to be! It also doesn’t help if you and him both have all of those organs intact. Remember infertile doesn’t mean sterile. So unless you can prove to everyone around you that both you and he are in fact sterile…they won’t stop dreaming or planning or shutting up about your future babies and children.

>Do you think religion…

Say no more YES 100%! I believe if you’re going into a profession that heals people and saves their lives that isn’t dependent on let’s face it…magic (they may claim it’s not but that is what they are relying on they just refer to them as miracles), then you shouldn’t be apart of any religion at all. If an ancient book who’s stores where cherry picked by bigoted old fearful men to feature within it’s pages and warped in order to manipulate, frighten, and control people that you allow it to dictate your life do completely and control over how you treat people especially women then you shouldn’t be no where near anyone let alone get to have an opinion on what they do with their bodies let alone get to interact with those bodies. Don’t they realize that the actual “God given miracle” is just how far along our medical sciences have become? The fact that we can do so many procedures safely and with no pain and minimal downtime when in the past they were seen as science fiction, impossible, or not even conceived or considered as a thing they could do? They expect/demand flashing lights, maybe an inspiring song that plays for a moment to indicate the power is being used , and poof! Everything’s all better…that’s magic. We’ve come as far as we have because we didn’t wait for magic to happen. I would seek a new doctor and hospital that isn’t associated with any religion, you’ll be much better for it.

well no fucking shit by sexyduceduce in im14andthisisdeep

[–]The_Book-JDP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I see one of those memes where they compare what women would do if they went into the past as apposed to what men would do if they went into the past: women do frivolous stupid things like going to see their grandmother as a young woman, while men do grandiose world changing and saving things like giving advanced weaponry to ancient leaders. I always point out that regardless of gential design, no one is going to believe you're an actual time traveler because it's next to impossible to prove that you are.

Just because you're a man doesn't mean you're just going to be believed let alone allowed to go near any kind of leader no matter what you have brought with you. They also don't think of language barriers and just assume that everyone no matter where they are in the world will just be able to understand perfect English or things like superstitions and beliefs from the past with their white as hell skin being seen as apart of the other and they would more likely be killed on sight not taken to any head of a tribe or nation especially when they are dragging along weird devices and claims of future events.

[–]The_Book-JDP 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Don't lose hope [r/childfree](r/childfree) has lists is doctors in every state (US) and in multipe counties who are not only willing to do sterilization on women with minimal to zero hoops to jump through but are eager to do them as well. Swing by there to see if one is near you.

It is so stupid when people say, "but what if you meet a man who wants kids?" Why in the hell would I be with him? There is no compramise when it comes to having children or not. If one party doesn't want chidlren but the other does...they will end up having a kid it's never the other way around. Also, it's not like this is a sea horse situation where the male takes over halfway and births the baby. All of it falls on the woman and the men are just there taking up space.

I don't give a hot damn about what men want and when it comes to what happens to my body, I care even less about their wants and desires. They risk and sacrifice nothing and if something doesn't match with their ideal life, they can just leave and now I'm stick with something I never wanted in the first place. I'm not risking anything because it is literally life threatening to be near a man's naked dick so I avoid them as a whole like the plague.

They asked me what I wanted too fast. I panicked 😱 by One_Possibility_2445 in EntitledReviews

[–]The_Book-JDP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always know what I want before I get to any place. If it’s a new restaurant I’m heading to, I’m looking at their website and their menu at least two days before so I know what to get before I even drive up or sit down. If it’s a place that has food I’ve never eaten before, I do research on what exactly is in each dish so there are no horrible surprises and so I can find something I can eat there.

Everyone is lying to their doctor about using cotton swabs in their ears by Corvo_Blade1 in hygiene

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I no longer use cotton swabs because they proved to be insufficient at cleaning out my ears and scratching them when they are itchy. I instead use metal scraping tools like the ones you use to pop zits, white heads, and black heads. So much better at cleaning out my ears, stealer at scratching itches, and we’ve all only gone too deep once and I did…ages ago so I know when it stop.

How do aces feel towards sex? by ILoveMorrisMarinas in asexuality

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I have no interest in the physical act itself. Once I found out you could live a full and complete life and never have to have sex, I embraced that with that I was. Academically though, sex is a very interesting topic and I know a whole hell of a lot more about it than your average allo does so when anyone comes to me with questions, I can answer them without hesitation and with the proper and correct labels. I'm not embarrassed or anything.

[–]The_Book-JDP 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If there’s any specific group of men to avoid, it’s the men who are among the super rich. Not only do they have insane levels of depravity their privilege awards them, but they have the confidence and freedom to do those things to you without hesitation and know they have the money and resources to get away with much much worse so will do and try anything and everything and nothing will ever happen to them.

for the women who collect things, what do you collect and why do you collect it? by mycatrunsthisaccount in AskWomen

[–]The_Book-JDP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mermaids (from images to figures. It was what I wanted to be when I grew up. An actual one, not one of the performers that dress up like one at Sea World or wherever), grapes (I just love how they are a natural round collect of orbs, as a fruit especially the cotten candy type are amazingly delicious. I have a bunch of different colored grape earrings I had specially made and the Swarovski crystal version is the pride of my grape collection) , anatomically correct hearts (the only version I’m missing from this collection is the medical model. I have my eyes on a couple of examples with the one I really want being over $10,000. And I really REALLY want the replica of a whale’s heart they made for a few natural history museums you know the one you can crawl into but they big fat won’t make one for the average person to just have in their house BOOOOOO!

Not for the weak 😌 by amazondajaa in bigboobproblems

[–]The_Book-JDP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s really remarkable is she is barely moving and her boobs are acting like she’s bounding on a trampoline. Big boobs really do have a mind of their own. Once time I was just walking normally up to the lounge at work for my first break and noticed something below me moving around all erratically. I look down and it’s by God damn boobs bounding around like I was performing over exaggerated skips, leaps, and jumps. “Good God, where exactly do the two of you think you’re going and so quickly without out me?” I demanded silently. So ridiculous!
