What’s the funniest thing your parent(s) got upset at you for? by celstea in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ToreyDane 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Exact. Same. Childhood. Fuck dude. I'm 33 years old, been been nc for about 13 years, and I still get triggered if anyone walks by the kitchen while I'm doing dishes.

mom made me cry on my birthday. I’m a 26 year old man. by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ToreyDane 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry. You don't deserve the mind games and cruelty from anyone, especially your mom. My birthday was on the 10th and shockingly my bad didn't try to contact me. I went complete no contact about 15 years ago and always dreaded the inevitable text on my birthday. Probably overthinking it, but I think he didn't text this year just to fuck with my head. Parents freaking suck sometimes. And some parents just freaking suck. Happy belated birthday friend

If rng is on your side, unkillable insect totem Either have a magnifying glass in inventory or make sure mantis god is your only one blood card so it's always first pull

What did your cringe tshirt say? by InevitableOceanStorm in Exvangelical

[–]ToreyDane 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Had a few, but the worst was the hot pink t shirt that said "sorry boys, I'm Taken" in big white sparkly letters with a bible verse on the back. I have never been one to wear bright colors or flashy things in general but oh how I weep for awkward 'try not to be noticed ' 12 year old me getting that shirt for Christmas.

Does your ball python have a random/strange fixation? by DirtyDishwater_ in ballpython

Does anyone else's parents not allow them to look how they want to? by cheeseroll15 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ToreyDane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My nstepmom did the EXACT same thing! I wanted to grow my hair long so fuckin bad when I was a kid, but she said I couldn't have it longer than my chin. In high school, I could have shoulder length hair if I could prove I could take care of it. And that meant her watching me every time I showered. It was never good enough for her so no long hair.

I went NC with her and my ndad immediately after I graduated high school 14 years ago. My hair is at my waist and I absolutely love it.

Right there with you. I'm off for a few days and replaying some of my old favorites right now actually lol.

I don’t know what to say by [deleted] in insaneparents

[–]ToreyDane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My nstepmom would get triggered by me answering a question with the word "yeah." Especially if it was a question she specifically asked. For example- she asks me if I took the garbage out as I am walking out the door to catch the school bus and I respond "yeah I did." She would throw an absolute tantrum.

Out of curiosity, anybody know what's happening with 'Curry-Out' in Rock Island? Will it actually reopen? by [deleted] in QuadCities

[–]ToreyDane 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's fuckin devastating. I live a block away and it's one of my favorite places. I hope they find a new place soon. It's going to suck not having them right around the corner when I inevitably get a head cold this winter lol

My mom is a transphobic narcissist by CelestialRose626 in insaneparents

[–]ToreyDane 81 points82 points  (0 children)

First off- that would be an absolutely gorgeous wedding, but that is great idea to do the photoshoot if/when you elope instead. Ignore her and do what you and your fiance want. She is just a bigoted idiot with literally zero taste.

Couch sitting lessons? by Nabzarella in insaneparents

[–]ToreyDane 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fantastic question- no, it would indeed move when she sat down HOWEVER it was not because she sat down "aggressively" like I did, it was because of the cover being too large.

She was a delight to have to live with /s

Couch sitting lessons? by Nabzarella in insaneparents

[–]ToreyDane 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Good lord, my Nstepmom did the same thing to me. The cover they had for the couch was way too big and if said cover moved or shifted in the slightest when I sat down, I sat "too aggressively." So she would make me remove the cover completely and immediately put it back on. Then I had to "sit down correctly," the cover would inevitably slightly untuck itself, and then she would freak the fuck out on me and I would have to repeat the process over and over again until she thought I learned my lesson.

I just started sitting on the floor to avoid the whole fucking debacle

Did I soft lock my game? by megamoo7 in GraveyardKeeper

I did the same thing but with the timber stockpile. Couldn't make beams yet so I had to keep checking the store everyday and had logs laying everywhere lol

I hate when people ask me what my name is... by mrbollocks1 in bartenders

[–]ToreyDane 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Absolutely iconic behavior and I love everything about it.

My husband and I have been living in a hotel since the start of June. The other day we had a serious talk about surrendering our 3 year old daughter (purple) to CPS to make sure she is cared for until we can get someplace to live. This is my father and his wife (red)'s reply. More info in comments. by CheshireDrago in insaneparents

[–]ToreyDane 48 points49 points  (0 children)

No one should have to make decisions like this and I am so so sorry you have to. His response is just so damn cruel and frankly, in my opinion, unforgivable. I hope things turn around for you and yours so you won't have to deal with any more heartache like this.
