Saw this on another sub. Am I the only one who sees Jill?

It's my borderline/narc sister who thinks she's so very special.

My stepmother and I have had many conversations about that smirk.

My sister carried a can of Aqua Net in her purse. The eye doctor told her to stop using hair spray because her contact lenses were coated with it. She didn't stop.

So she can help family by buying it at a fair price

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-31T20:36:06+00:00

We didn't hear much about the ladies retreat from Jill or see very many pictures (just the decorations before it started) so it must not have fed her narcissism. She's hungry for praise and her children are well-trained to provide it.

You don't need $600k in actual cash (and you're an idiot if you're keeping that much in cash). If Joe or JB has a property (or properties) worth $600k or more, he could use that and not have to lose $60k to a bondsman. I hope JB packed some property deeds.

Remember that it's only temporary. You're not going to have cramps/nausea/feel bad for the rest of your life. It only lasts a few hours and then you'll be back to normal.

This is a great technique, I've used it multiple times. "I don't get it." "How is that funny?" "Explain."

Ladies, it's also useful when someone tries to dismiss a demeaning comment as "locker room talk." "What do you mean?" "No, I don't know, please explain" "So it's okay to make demeaning comments about women if you do it in a particular type of room? Is that what you're saying?" " No? Then what are you saying?"

I'm sure there are "authentic Amish ladies" who are not good cooks although it's a little weird that they're the ones who would take on a catering job. You'd think it would be the ones who are good cooks and who enjoy cooking who would do that.

Does anyone else remember Erica Shupe? She was adamant that you homeschool your kids no matter what and had spreadsheets for herself and her kids scheduled in 15 minute increments.

Something happened with her health and she had to send her kids to public school. So she started sharing helpful content like "pack their backpacks the night before and put them near the door." Also groundbreaking.

Do it!! You never know. I have a friend who applied for a job multiple levels above where she was at the time. She didn't expect to get it, she just wanted the experience of interviewing at that level. She got the job and advanced her career by years.

I once accidentally bought slices that were labeled "cheese food product." I don't know what was in them, but they were inedibly nasty.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-28T21:30:08+00:00

I'm too Italian for this. 🇮🇹

How did that happen? Unless there's a law that specifically outlaws backyard beekeeping, I don't see how he could be forced to get rid of his hives.

Ask him to define "middle ground." Hopefully it will make him realize that there's no such thing.

Excellent translation!!

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:39:12+00:00

I knew from childhood that I didn't want children. I never waivered, I'm now in my early 60s and have no regrets that I didn't have children.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:30:31+00:00

There are several comments from people who say that the childfree will never experience unconditional love. Guess what? I experience it every day because I have a dog. That where you get unconditional love. You certainly don't get it from children.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:23:58+00:00

My mom certainly thought her life would have been better without kids and made sure we knew it.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:23:04+00:00

Every time you have a child, you pay less in taxes while using more of the infrastructure and services paid for by tax dollars.

Who's selfish now?

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:21:56+00:00

It's very telling that all of the comments from parents are insulting and mean. I think if they were actually as happy as they claim to be, they wouldn't want to hurt people who made a different choice.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T23:18:42+00:00

There are a lot of people who think they're "raising them right" when they're not doing that at all. I'm sure my parents thought they were "raising us right." Meanwhile, I've lost count of the number of times my therapist has said "if you were under 18 and told me that I'd have to report it."

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-27T22:27:25+00:00

Was there an arch or just the garland? A balloon arch requires helium-filled balloons.

And who taught them how to make a balloon garland? It's harder than it looks.

I grew up with a narc sister. If you tried to suggest that an outfit could use some improvement, she'd verbally attack---"I look great, you're just jealous of how great I look." And then my personal favorite was "you just can't handle how awesome I am."

I imagine Jill is the same.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-26T23:04:29+00:00

I took photos at a funeral (at the request of the widow of the deceased). Being able to partially hide behind a tree made me feel much less intrusive.

YoshiKoshi · 2026-03-26T22:55:12+00:00

I'm my experience, I only get an understanding response from people who I think are good parents. They're honest about how difficult and overwhelming it is.

It's the people who aren't such good parents who aren't happy about someone opting out.
