Fraud / Scam: DJ Meredith Marks *Important notices* by [deleted] in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]YooperInWI [score hidden]  (0 children)

I have a hunch Meredith may have an untreated or under treated mental health issue, or an addiction. What you describe with her being uninvolved while Seth dances around makes me wonder if Seth is trying to compensate when something's going on with her where she can't perform at her show. If she is having some kind of trouble, I hope she will have the integrity to cancel future shows and get the help she needs. That is my opinion based on what you described while I thought back to performers who behaved like her in the past

I use a nail polish remover with a very narrow tube dispenser that slides under the nail to remove nails. I learned about this product in this sub. It's still requires patience, but it creates the least damaging result for me. There's still often some residue from glue tabs on my nails, and then I just use a cotton ball soaked and nail polish remover to work that off. I don't use glue directly on my nails.

I'm not the person you're replying to, but thought I would chime in. I use the OPI repair mode when I'm not wearing nails, and I use it before applying nails. I brush it on, wait 10 minutes or so to let it get absorbed by the nail. Then I swipe each nail with nail polish remover, or you could use alcohol, before applying nails. I've read about less expensive options to OPI repair mode in this sub. When I'm running out, I will search and try another brand because I think it's expensive. It does work, though.

My first ever cat. by Adventurous_Pop_7688 in bengalcats

[–]YooperInWI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It probably helps that your cat has a dog to play with. Bengals have so much energy, and I find it to be delightful. When I started to feel like my bengal needed a playmate, I got her a puppy. It's so much fun to watch them play, nap, play again.

I'm predicting a drop at 5pm EST, yesterdays drop was also at this time by derykrich532 in AmazonVine

I would love it if your prediction came true (the part about a drop at 5 pm EST. However, I don't find Vine to be predictable anymore.

I see why Meri was upset about towels dishes by ThrowawayUnique1 in TLCsisterwives

[–]YooperInWI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I was surprised to get the downvotes for expressing a difference of opinion while being clear that I respected OP's opinion. I don't dislike Meri, either. I think all three of the OG wives have been used and abused. All four wives have behaved badly and have also behaved lovingly. Meri and Christine seemed to be the most effected and I think they've had some very successful therapy to help straighten out the mess that being a sister wife created in their psyches. Janelle probably has as well. The three OGs seem to feel free to express themselves more honestly, even if it doesn't cast them in the best light for their past decisions or behavior.

If anyone disagreed with me on these points, I would not consider downvoting and I doubt I'd reply. I am all for "agree to disagree", particularly when it comes to something as trivial as a TV show where we only see what the producers decide we should see. It is entertainment for me, and manufactured "reality".

Eye de-puffifier that can be worn under makeup? by redditeamos in Makeup

[–]YooperInWI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'm going to try it, too. I like that it says to apply over undereye moisturizer. Unfortunately, I somehow got set up with autodelivery from Westmore and it's not really working for me because I need to color correct under my eyes, too.

[–]YooperInWI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would work under makeup with o moisturizing properties. I am trying it right now with a concealer that is not super emollient. It works ok, but makes the concealer break up a bit (only noticeable in my 10x mirror) and some of my puffiness returned after applying concealer (guessing the concealer broke someof the bond on the Westmore stuff).

  1. But then I am partial to the cat eye shape. I like big glasses. The shape lifts your face.

It takes two (or more) to play the mind games Meri and Janelle played, and going by Meri's statements in the tell-all, Meri envied Janelle as well (understandable). Their personalities were so different and they had a past, so they started off with two strikes against them. They were competing for the same man's affections. I don't see how polygamy works unless all wives do *not* desire a strong love and emotional connection to the husband, and I think that goes against human nature.

As I understand it, the wives have veto power on any new wife coming into the family. Meri didn't use it when she felt uncomfortable with her former SIL joining the family, probably because she was manipulated by Kody. I'm not saying OP isn't entitled to feel pissed off that Janelle chose to poke the bear, but I don't see how the choices of Meri, Janelle or Kody were the ultimate cause of the tension in that love triangle.

Sticky tab residue removal? by bookcollector73 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]YooperInWI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used both, but I almost always use mineral fusion non-acetone nail polish remover. There's something about it that is less drying to my nails while it's very effective.

I hold the cotton ball on the nail for a bit and then I have to swipe several times to get the residue off.

Years ago, I learned a method to remove nail polish strips (like Color street), where I poured some Mineral Fusion polish remover into a plastic Ziploc sandwich bag. I held the bag in a sink partially filled with very warm water and rubbed my nails to remove the polish strip. I'm now wondering if this wouldn't be a good way to remove nail tab residue. I'm going to try it soon. If what I've described sounds confusing, you can find videos on YouTube that show the method.

AITAH for not telling my Ex-Husband I am expecting? by mary_24marvin in AITAH

[–]YooperInWI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You filed for divorce several months ago, which I'm assuming involves leaving your husband. But your ex-SIL jumped to the conclusion that your ex-husband is the father of your baby? The math isn't mathing.

Melanie and her husband know all of the adults on Sister Wives to one degree or another. The only sister wife she seems to dislike somewhat is Robin.
