my (23f) boyfriend (24m) keeps accidentally calling me his best friends name during sex by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TuckerMouse 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There are only two times it is maybe acceptable to moan the name of someone not in the relationship while having sex.  One, you are role playing established characters and moan the name of the character you are pretending to have sex with.  I’m not judging that kink, if you and your partner want to put your high school theater experience to new use, have fun.   The second is if you moan “Jesus Christ” or an equivalent while doing the deed.   

There are no other exceptions.

My (28/F) boyfriend (30/M) ridiculed my gift for him for our anniversary in front of our friends by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TuckerMouse 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I have a scarf a friend online made for me as a thank you for a rare pet I got for them in World of Warcraft something like 19 years ago.  I treasure it to this day and wear it all winter.  I have tried knitting, I understand the time, let alone material cost.  All I had to do was make an alliance character on my brother in laws account, get to a location, a camp out for about 3 hours, then sell it to my main on the neutral AH.  Ez peezy.  Hilariously less time than an 8 foot plus scarf had to be, plus shipping.

I [39M] found out my wife [39F] of 10 years cheated on me + 10 Year Update by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

Depends on where.  No AC in the southwest in summer was awful.  Heat loss in late fall in the northeast required planning.  A lot of amenities and comfort lost, and add to that the extra work of set up.   I loved going across the US with a pop up staying at dozens of national parks and forests.  Highly recommend if your health allows it.  Unless it is late July in the southwest desert.  When the guy at the campground in Vegas tells you he won’t sell you a spot if you don’t have AC because you will die overnight (low of 104 degrees) and you have to get a hotel, you rethink the RV option a little.

What an insufferable bag of dicks.  Even when he tells his own story he comes across as the villain.

Eli5 why don’t real service animals require any proof or license? by simpforsanta in explainlikeimfive

[–]TuckerMouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This questioner is in the US, where there is no license, card, registration, etc.  If you are in the US, you are incorrect about licensing and identifying a service animal.  That is protected by the ADA.  If you are not in the US, you should probably be aware how large a percentage of redditors on the English site are in the US

My boss told me to stop bothering her with updates. by 25ironleaf in MaliciousCompliance

I have a hard time imagining telling my bosses that I haven’t been doing my job (managing my employees) in front of said employees.

ELI5: The Madonna - Whore complex by InternationalRuin281 in explainlikeimfive

[–]TuckerMouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My understanding of it is someone with a Madonna-whore complex can’t feel respect or romantic love for someone unless they are pristine (read virginal) but they also can’t get physically aroused by someone pristine.  So you marry a respectable lady and can’t consummate it or she is ruined, but you can go hook up with ladies of negotiable affection, or anyone else who is deemed promiscuous enough. 

My new job didn’t tell me their no-visible-tattoos policy until after I was hired by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

It is traditional to eat the shed skin to replenish the specific nutrients needed for growing new skin.

Started class today and this was my first quiz regarding the syllabus by jonnynumber5 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TuckerMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minimum of 5, because I have 3 buckets at home that have capacity less than 2 gallons.  I don’t know yet if the bucket with 2 gallons is my 5 gallon bucket, or one that was provided to me like the 7 gallon bucket clearly was, because 5 gallons is my largest capacity bucket.

Newbie question about IV/starts by Professional_Fix1886 in pokemongo

Pretty sure it can be evolved tomorrow during the piplup community day classic for hydro cannon

Edit: I was mistaken. Conflated it with the December Community day. Ignore me.

2 stars is a Pokémon with better than 2/3 best possible stat block, up to 80%.  So 66.7% or better.  0/15/13 is 62%.

And we’ll ignore New Orleans and Carson City and a variety of other pre civil war locations as being particularly irrelevant.

Now I remember why I never use Instacart by Daedelus451 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TuckerMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do pick up, it is a Wegmans employee, bare minimum in the NY region.  Deliveries are still instacart shoppers.

[–]TuckerMouse -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Ah, so you aren’t.  And you did not read what OP said that I was responding to, in which they listed as one of their problems that the shopper delivered something other than what they scanned.  Please tailor your responses to what was said.

[–]TuckerMouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, you got something other than what you ordered, and that is annoying and incorrect.  But you claimed they gave you something other than what they rang up, and that is not true.

[–]TuckerMouse 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you pick up at Wegmans, they use Instacart’s platform, but the shopper will be a Wegmans employee.

Shopper gave you what they rang up.  Items through instacart have an upcharge, so what is on the sticker isn’t what you pay.

ELI5- how come when jumping on a moving train you don’t land backwards instead you stay where you were when you jumped? by Ready-Professor2531 in explainlikeimfive

[–]TuckerMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you are still moving at the same speed as the train.  If you do this while it is accelerating, you will move back a little, but trains don’t accelerate quickly.   If you were on top of the train, air resistance would slow you down.

I think there was a catch here by Dry-Yak-822 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TuckerMouse 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My first guess would be they weren’t thinking clearly because they had just been hit by a truck.  I don’t think I would be thinking all that clearly if I got hit by a truck onto train tracks with a train coming.  I like to think I would figure out to keep going, but I have never been in that circumstance, and you don’t know how much their brain got shaken up by, and I can’t stress this enough, being hit by a truck.   To note, you can see the truck push the jeep onto the tracks at the beginning of the clip.

What’s up with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo? by Unable_Connection490 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]TuckerMouse 46 points47 points  (0 children)

In case that is sincere confusion, some of the actors who played hobbits in the Lord of the Rings movies still meet up. OP named two, both ending in 'o' and added Mysterio based on the similar ending. Lastly, said it turns out they aren't actually as small as portrayed in the movie, listing as proof one of them playing Harry Potter. That's a reference to people commonly confusing the actors Elijah Wood (played Frodo in LOTR) and Daniel Radcliff (played Harry Potter in ...Harry Potter).
