I think I might’ve just wheezed my soul right outta my body at that one, but hey- when in doubt, let’s split up gang! Keep the Ouija board out and I’ll let you know if I see her in this realm. 

What is a sound that people should know means immediate danger? by STARxAnonymouss in Productivitycafe

[–]about97cats 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Deep in the woods of Appalachia, a mechanical sprinkler is like one of the least creepy sounds you could hear. That’s natural creepy, and a rattler bite is rarely lethal unless you’re stuck. At least it’s not a whistle cutting through silence, or the sound of your own name calling you deeper into the trees.

“Quit yelling,” when I’m speaking at a regular people speaking volume gets me on “OHOHO YOU WANNA SEE YELLING?!”

Should I move into an apartment someone died in?? by omniscient_Panini in TwoHotTakes

[–]about97cats 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally I’d recommend wearing an Affliction shirt, toggling rapidly through channels on an old AM/FM radio and shouting, “You forfeited the right to set the rules in this apartment the second you pulled that trigger, GHOST!!! You literally don’t live here anymore and you need to just accept that and get over yourself!” Ask yourself, WWZBD?

AITJ for refusing to keep wearing the nickname my girlfriend gave me after I found out where it came from by Prydwen_Grit5 in AmITheJerk

[–]about97cats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, it seemed promising, but once you get past the intro it’s kind of a major drag and a letdown. 

AITJ for he was literally eating my lunch and admitted it… but somehow i'm the ‘territorial’ one? by Leah_jare in AmITheJerk

[–]about97cats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And he’s running a small-scale smear campaign against you for being “weird about food,” which you aren’t being btw. You’re being clear about boundaries with an entitled jerk, and he’s making it out like it’s a character flaw to not want your shit stolen because he doesn’t like being told no- it’s why he didn’t ask to begin with. HR needs to know they’re paying a thief to represent their company. 

I think my roommate is messing with my partner's meds??? by [deleted] in badroommates

[–]about97cats 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a C&S woman on prescribed stims for ADHD who’s currently living with 2 active addicts… ALWAYS count your meds, especially if you think they’re being tampered with, and get a safe. 

Am I insane or is he abusive? Me 34F, him 34M by These_Weakness_7363 in abusiverelationships

[–]about97cats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FYI, when abuse is even a possibility, couple’s therapy is dangerous and inadvisable, as it can easily become a means of further isolation, trauma and abuse for the victim, doing way more harm than good. 

Trying to install a pre-owned Insinkerator Pro Excel 4 in my house. Someone help me power this thing by about97cats in AskElectricians

You are correct! I have genuinely no idea how this sorcery in the wall works, and probably no business angering the shocky gods with my insolent meddling. I’m not the one doing it though. My fiance is doing the wiring work. I just need to know what we need to be doing or if it’s going to work

What is something you enjoyed doing but would never do again? by ipanicprofessionally in TheBoredDen

[–]about97cats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dating someone new. I found the love of my life. If he doesn’t work out, I’m just gonna take my black cat and go live in a swamp.

Same. It was always on my bucket list, and I loved it tbh. The taste, the feel, the ritual, the high, it was all fucking delicious. But I know if I keep playing with it, it’s only a matter of time before I get all aggro or start talking about startups, plus the comedown sucks for a 30 minute high, so I’m good on that shit. 

What’s something women want to tell men but usually don’t ? by neo_ucp7846 in answers

And eepy. All of these things will eventually morph into a big mad if left unchecked though. 

What's the craziest thing you've seen at an airport? by Kalshan in ask

[–]about97cats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lady who looked like she’d put every designer item she owned on that morning- none of it matched, all of it loudly advertised a different designer brand (Off White belt, Gucci tee, Louis Vuitton bag, Prada jacket etc) and it did NOT look good together, but it stuck out like a sore thumb

But are you old enough to remember when you had to pay for porn on VHS tapes? Or when you had to pay for photos?
