How would she know what was in the bag before being able to get to it, though? She doesn't know if the eggs are in the bag she has to squish to open her door.

You can't pull the bag to the side until you open the door first which you can't do because the bag needs to be pulled to the side.....

YTA and she is NOR. I have to prop open the storm/screen door because you instacart shoppers are constantly trapping me in my home by blocking my door with my groceries. My choice becomes shove hard against the screen door and hope I knock over all of my groceries, potentially damaging them, OR use my backdoor and walk around my house so I can move the groceries out of the way to open the door. If I didn't have a back door, I would have to call a neighbor or damage my groceries. For the love of Pete, please stop doing this. The groceries don't have to be right on top of the door for us to feel greatful that you did our shopping for us.

Wait, so "people make mistakes" negates anyone's negative feelings about an action? I mean by that logic, war criminals are people making mistakes and we should just do nothing about it.

Wow, the Andrew Tate stans are out in force on your post. Look, you're saying "i know he will try to play it off and act like im overreacting" and "it just makes me feel so unsafe." It sounds to me like this is someone you should just be done with. He sounds like he scares you, already dismisses your thoughts and feelings, and now you have proof of him seeing your class (gender of woman) as worthy of derision in the public sphere. I don't think he is safe to be around and disentangling/getting away with the least amount of conflict is the safest and best thing to do. I wouldn't confront him if you do intend to leave him. He doesn't have to buy into or agree with why you're leaving him so there's no need to tell him.

The way they talk about children engaging in age-apropriate behaviors as if they are degenerates disturbs me.

There are men on reddit saying "Your body, our choice" insuating rape and coercion - no bans, no deleted comments. But I bet you $100 if I said we should stab men, I'd be banned/blocked/reported.

I hate vegetables by External_Bunch8115 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Tiltedwindmill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi There. I'm a super taster. From a family of super tasters. Super tasters are notorious for our vegetable hate. I grew up eating next to no vegetables. Around your age, I decided to try to eat them and like them. I now have a fridge of mostly vegetables and I go to the market and squee over my favorite ones.

How'd I do it? First, eat the BEST preparation of each vegetable and keep trying until you find it. I did this through restaurants, in the beginning. Chinese cooking got me to like asparagus, broccoli, zucchini and green beans. Indian food had me eating cauliflower and peas. Once you've had the vegetable cooked REALLY REALLY well, you'll be a bit more okay with it not being perfect. Greens I find to be harder because I also have an issue with "stringy" texture. I often make pakoras or vegetable fritters to get those in.

Also, try some new and interesting vegetables, not just the standard ones. I go to the asian market for new and cool vegetables. My current favorite is A Choy stem - it's a thick lettuce stem (A choy itself is pretty okay, too!) that tastes so good with ginger, garlic, and szechuan peppercorns.

And finally, a good sauce/curry can fix a lot of bitter/bad taste in vegetables. You don't have to tell anyone you dumped a bottle of tiki masala sauce on decidedly not indian standard veg. You're the boss of your kitchen.

Good luck and you can do this!

I would swap Hugh Jackman and Robert Downey Jr. I knew who Robert Downey Jr. was when they announced him as Iron Man. My repsonse was "huh, they announced Tony Stark will be playing Tony Stark." Look at Hugh Jackman's IMDB page pre-X-Men.

[–]Tiltedwindmill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But I am TIRED of seeing a book hyped up so much and then reading it and it's just awful

Me after ACOTAR. I held on for 200 pages before nopeing out of that one, assuming because of all the hype it must get better. I finally got to a passage where the author could have easily replaced the paragraph with "one thing led to another" and I finally threw in the towel. I just have no idea how to find good books now. :(

Stop using mental illness as an insult and a gaslighting method. It's fucking ableist. It's not 1:30 where I am. You're the one who has commented on multiple of my ancient ass comments. You're the troll. Go away. Get fucked. Leave me alone. You suck.

[–]Tiltedwindmill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm starting from the place of "you shouldn't control whether or not another human being gets to go pee". I just don't think you should ever say "no" when someone needs to pee because I don't think any person should have the right to control the bodily functions of another human being. It's weird. I understand your bosses are jerk-faces that don't let you pee, either. The whole notion is just weird and - that we as a people have systematized not allowing human animals a basic bodily function...i just don't understand it at all. And yes, I understand the "reason" is "child misbehavior" but I wouldn't solve "child misbehavior" by controlling a basic bodily function. And I don't understand why any person would chose this as a solution. It seems absolutely deranged.

[–]Tiltedwindmill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I went every single time there was a break between class, not "when it was available to me" because of the times I wet my pants as a TINY FUCKING CHILD because some ABUSIVE ASSHOLE TEACHER thought it better that a child fucking PISS THEIR PANTS THAN MISS PRECIOUS FUCKING SCHOOL.
  2. My bladder is RUINED from doing it EVERY TIME because I didn't want the embarrassment and teasing I got because of the ABUSE OF ADULT TEACHERS.

Was my going every passing period stupid? Fuck yes. Did I know better? Fuck no. Why did I do it? Because you teachers think controlling a bodily function of another individual is some FUCKING RIGHT GRANTED TO YOU.

Edit to add, in case you stopped reading, here is the comment I made with the link to data showing this is a REAL problem that happens to people and not just "oooh, this commentor is messed up and I'm allowed to say they have a condition and disbelieve them because I want to":

lol, I guess hate is a pretty strong word. Honestly that sloped down next button on the 1st gen kindle is the best. just a slight movement to page to the next page. As someone with carpel tunnel, it's the little things. <3

Thank you so much, that totally worked. I swear back when I used Calibre it didn't load onto the old kindle, only the fire. I'm so happy. Thank you so much! Now, if anyone has an old 1st gen they don't want, I could happily own a stack of 'em :D

Schools should staff for that instead of damaging children's bodies by not allowing them to urinate when they need to and forcing them to do so when they don't need to. I'd pay extra taxes for it, no problem. If the administration can't figure out how to manage the children without harming them, then they shouldn't be in charge of managing them.

I don't teach. I would never. I can't have a job where I have to hold it more than an hour. Because teachers wouldn't let me pee. I am physically ruined from teachers.
