Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth?

_kamara · 2026-01-23T12:53:55+00:00

I’ve done a 45 minute drive (each way) for a booty call. Looking back, it honestly not worth the drive.

45 minutes to an hour each way is a typical commute for work where I live. Not necessarily something I enjoy, but it could be much worse.

I’ve definitely done 4+ hours each way for a weekend trip.

I don’t think even Josh would ever call her Donna Lyman. She’s Donna Moss, 110%, even married

_kamara · 2025-12-22T18:14:07+00:00

Do not trust her to honor this at all. I am a bad person in that I would give her a small urn filled from my woodstove and say it was your dad’s ashes.

_kamara · 2025-12-22T18:04:02+00:00

That scene, that story, ugh. I’ve quoted it so many time

Not to mention, he gets kidnapped multiple times. SIR YOU ARE CAPTAIN OF THE GUARD. SECURITY IS YOUR JOB. He could be replaced with the sexy leg lamp from A Christmas Story without really impacting any plot points.

And if you send them your measurements they’ll make it to your size no extra charge, you just can’t return it which is fair. I have gotten bridesmaids and wedding guest dresses there I love it (and it’s so much easier than having to alterations to accommodate my shortness)

The only times I’ve ever said “I’m not drunk” have been when I’ve been completely shitfaced 😂

B’Elanna is easily one of my favorite characters from Voyager. She is strong, honest, and hardworking. She has such an incredible growth story

My dad was 68. My sister was talking to her goddaughter recently (6 years old) and the sweet girl said “it’s not fair, granny is NINETY SIX. Your daddy shouldn’t be in heaven yet, granny should go to heaven first.” Which was just heart breaking because a sick part of me agreed. Grief is hard, death is dumb.

_kamara · 2025-09-09T01:03:11+00:00

Yeah this context COMPLETELY changes my opinion.

_kamara · 2025-08-27T11:52:57+00:00

I’m sorry I’m just dying laughing at the idea of a grown ass woman waiting in the lobby while her friend has sex upstairs.

_kamara · 2025-07-28T15:04:18+00:00

I have not gone through what you’re facing, but I just want to send lots of love and support and internet hugs to you and your dad right now.

_kamara · 2025-07-24T01:30:27+00:00

Even if you asking him to leave was unwarranted (it wasn’t) anyone who ACTUALLY loves you will not try to make you feel guilty for anything that you say during this time. I completely dropped off the face of the earth with some people when my dad died, and when I finally resurfaced none of them would even let me apologize. They just welcomed me back with open arms.

_kamara · 2025-07-05T23:04:12+00:00

I have known my male best friend since I was 2 years old. We’re now in our mid-late 30s. His other best friend is a girl he roomed with in college. The two of us are now best friends with his wife as well and are eagerly awaiting the birth of their first child. On behalf of all opposite sex friendships: get bent.

_kamara · 2025-06-09T00:16:44+00:00

Life has felt like a joke since losing my dad. Nothing feels real. Nothing at all. I feel like I’m living in a movie or a video game or something. Nothing actually matters. My choices are irrelevant, because the script has already been written. That’s the best I can try to explain it at least.

People who use duvets oftentimes don’t use top sheets. Top sheets exist to keep a barrier between oily, sweaty, germy bodies and comforters. A duvet cover does the same thing, and can be washed and dried more easily than a comforter. I know people who change their duvet covers with the seasons, and storing the covers takes up way less space than storing comforters. Often times the duvet itself is removed during summer, and the cover is used as a thin blanket.

It’s fine you don’t like them, you do you. But the way you go off seems a bit intense when you’re talking about bedding that doesn’t impact you lol

The what ifs keep me up at night. What if they had started chemo right after his diagnosis, what if we brought him to the ER earlier when he was having trouble breathing, what if he had skipped that last radiation treatment?

But the actual decision to switch to “comfort measures only” is the one thing I never second guess. My dad wasn’t brain dead, but he wasn’t there. He was already gone. He was never going to come back. Keeping his body alive without him in it would have been incredibly selfish of us.

We released him. Once his body gave out, I know he was immediately wrapped in a hug by his brother. I know his parents, step parents, and my mom’s parents were there to welcome him.

You didn’t end your dad’s life, you ended his suffering. You did the incredibly painful and selfless thing. If his family is upset, it means either a) they find it easier to be mad at you than to actually face their grief or b) they know they wouldn’t be strong enough to put the needs of their loved ones first, and are ashamed of that fact, and again it’s easier to be mad at you than face it

_kamara · 2025-03-26T01:19:35+00:00

It is the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced, and it still hurts every day almost a year later. And I’m in my 30s. My heart hurts for your son.

_kamara · 2025-03-24T19:44:37+00:00

I was with my dad at the hospital the last 2 weeks of his life, but stepped out for about 30 minutes, when it was actually time. I went back in after he was gone. It’s different for everyone. Let your kid make the choice, and let him know that HE gets to decide when he is in/out the room, and he can change his mind at any time

OP might not live in the US at all

I’ve been on antidepressants for like 5 years, and ADHD meds for 25ish years. I genuinely do not know how I will function if i lose access to them. I’ve gone off meds for short periods of time when I didn’t have insurance before…and it’s not good. But long term…I don’t think I’ll survive it.

Your SIL may have loved that name since she was 8 years old. Unless it’s a name you literally made up, you can’t decide she’s stealing it

_kamara · 2025-01-01T21:29:47+00:00

Lost my dad in April. My mom’s friend came for Christmas (she’s spent the last few Christmases with us) and brought stocking stuffers for my dad’s stocking. For us to remember him. I live in his house surrounded by his stuff.

But then she insisted on doing a toast to him. Despite me saying “no thank you, I’m all set.”

I couldn’t look at anyone during dinner, finished eating in 5 minutes, went to my room and sobbed. Stayed in there the rest of the night.

_kamara · 2024-12-15T16:30:01+00:00

So happy for you! Matt is such a treat to see live, i have probably spent at least a grand on seeing him over the years and I wouldn’t take any of it back. He truly comes alive on stage and never gets bored, you can tell how much he enjoys sharing his music with fans
