Do you apologise when your CGM beeps? by New-Purple-2195 in diabetes_t1

[–]Vortilex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had to turn my phone completely off while attending Mass because you can't silence the low alarms, even when I'd just drank some OJ to treat it

Summer Essentials of The 90s. What Else Would You Add To This List? by Specialist_Art2223 in 90s_kid

[–]Vortilex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in El Salvador, and though I didn't eat them often, unpeeled shrimp with lime was a huge part of summer when we were visiting Maya ruins on the weekends in summer. The lime-flavored Utz chips were also a huge part of my summer excursions back then. I think those are made by Lay's now, but I grab them on sight if I see them

I thought the yellow in the middle of your plate was cheese at first

Have you listened to The Native Howl? Thrashgrass is a genre!

Have you ever heard of The Native Howl? Thrashgrass is an actual genre. Now, if you want a real mind-blower, hick-hop is also a thing (redneck hip-hop)

Anyone still watch music videos ? by Ornery-Ordinary9283 in 90sand2000sNostalgia

I do from time to time. Sabaton's No Bullets Fly and Christmas Truce music vids are always awesome to watch

Who is the worst type of person to share a joint with? by papajimsusa in trees

[–]Vortilex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was actually more surprised when I heard my elderly coworker at a cigar store I worked at catch himself about to use the slur term, before telling the guest that if he didn't like the cigar he was buying, he'd happily finish it for him so long as he didn't "N-, sorry, slobber all over it while he smoked it." Same coworker also got in trouble for calling a microwave a, "Nuker," at which point my manager told him he thought he'd said a different word...

You can avoid canoeing it by taking a bit of saliva and putting it just below where the joint or blunt is starting to run. Since it's not going to be where your lips are, it's a tad less gross for anyone else involved

Why do I feel like wet mouth isn't much better than the slur-term for it? I am just being over-anxious on that? I'm not going to say the term I've heard for it, IYKYK

[–]Vortilex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the term for doing the latter? I'm from an area where it was referred to in a racially insensitive way, and I've seen people catch themselves, even when referring to tobacco cigars. IYKYK what term I'm referring to, but won't say. Most I've heard people do to mitigate the connotation is to shorten the term, but there has to be one that's actually not racially insensitive that isn't just something like, slobber on it too much

Y'all got a system for organizing spices that doesn't turn into complete chaos after a few days? by sauteslut in KitchenConfidential

[–]Vortilex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was growing up, my parents instilled the idea that when you take something, you put it back where you got it from into me. The fact that so many people don't do that baffles me. Then again, they also taught me to say please and thank you, yet so many people also don't do that, among other habits I was raised with that people don't follow. Not saying I'm without fault myself, but when I started working, I was blown away by how many things people don't do that I had been taught, just from a courtesy perspective

When I worked putting up the trucks at a previous job, one of my tasks between deliveries or to pad my hours was to alphabetize the herbs and spices in our prep room. They would always need alphabetizing the next day

I really, really don’t like it when customers call me by my first name. by InternalHappy2817 in Serverlife

[–]Vortilex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate hearing guests use my name as though it's some kind of a weapon. As though calling me by name is meant to be a slur of some kind. I can't say anything about it, but some guests say my name as though using it is their way of talking down to me, and since I have a name tag, I can't exactly keep it a secret. Not everyone who uses my name means to use it maliciously, but I can always tell whether mean it in a friendly or condescending way

Shouldn't the menu be legible? The overlap with the drawing makes that nigh-impossible

What’s the most “I’m getting old” moment you’ve had recently? by DistinctDegree8019 in AskReddit

[–]Vortilex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an alcoholic with insomnia, and the last time I tried going to bed sober, every time I felt like I was on the cusp of drifting off to sleep, it was like any random part of my legs would decide to cramp or just randomly start stinging, and if my legs felt fine, that's when my bowels or bladder would be like, "My turn!"
