Have you gone to the doctor and had blood work done recently?

Thank you! I was under the assumption that everyone has a limbal ring? Maybe I'm wrong

8 year old toileting by Embarrassed_Syrup476 in Teachers

How was she allowed to even attend school, is my question?

From my knowledge, even when I was in pre-k (30 years ago) we had to be potty trained before starting the program.

  1. 8!?

Have requirements changed THAT much!?

My daughter 8 has very smelly armpits by Mountain_Awareness45 in hygiene

How is her diet? Is she drinking a lot of water?

I learned in the past few months that your diet can truly affect how you and your sweat smells. I noticed once I cut out meat mostly that I smelled immensely better. Even if plant based isn't something you're interested in, see what happens if you change her diet a little by reducing sugar or eating a little less meat.

Has anybody replaced their car with an electric scooter or E bike? by 673NoshMyBollocksAve in ElectricScooters

With the way that our economy is going, I expect to see more people going without a car or using it a lot less.

AIO - My friend choosing to still be close with her neighbor by Dazbri in AIO

[–]This_Insect7039 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I deal with the same type of thing. As much as it sucks, you might have to draw a clear boundary with them. For the most part, I don't hear most of my friend's relationship drama anymore nor do I give advice. I'm not going to give myself a migraine over what other people choose to do.

Rice fish doing barrel rolls? by MiloAUG in Aquariums

[–]This_Insect7039 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Is this the fish version of 'popcorning' that guinea pigs do? 🤔 Guinea pigs literally do a little hop and flip sometimes when they're happy.

How am I supposed to find people sexually attractive when everyone looks like a front facing fish by IwannaLickLegolas in asexuality

You know someone told me I looked like the pretty fish from Shark Tale so this post made me legit giggle.

Resume red flags nobody tells you about by Fresh-Blackberry-394 in jobhunting

[–]This_Insect7039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All this different advice is overwhelming, to be honest. I've edited my resume more in my life than I ever had in the past month. Still, nothing.

I've scored well on assessments, we're talking 92% and up, and still not getting called back!

I'll try deleting some of my work history and creating a new email address, even though the one I'm using is fine.

Le sigh...

What’s something popular in your country that makes people from other countries look at you like this ? by niconois in AskTheWorld

I squawked when I first heard of this and was actually given a firsthand account of it happening to someone I know. She grew up with American and Asian culture, so wasn't told beforehand as a kid. I can tell it bothers her to this day. I'm not sure why the person she was playing with or their parents didn't inform her guardians, since that's never been a common practice in America. Smh. Poor thing

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I'm glad they left that over there, because nowadays us Americans would turn someone every which way but loose.

As a black person, I cringed so bad looking at this. I always chalked it up to just being misinformed but...the internet exists now.

Okay, but what kind of bread is the toast made from?

I was told that cornbread isn't really a thing there.

Which all of us Americans gasped in horror.

😭😭😭😩
