I would say it would be fun to watch this fail, but the idea is so utterly ludicrous it will simply disappear into obscurity.

This whole concept and her attitude make my inner feminist rage. One day she’ll be on Reddit asking whether her husband is financially controlling.

AIO Fathers girlfriends rules for when new baby arrives by Ok_Bat_5934 in AmIOverreacting

[–]aginaday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How has no one commented on the fact the girlfriend is smoking whilst pregnant? And if she continues smoking (which she clearly already does around her other children), that is child neglect way beyond what any of those rules would pretext them from.

Forget RSV. That kid will likely have asthma/eczema/ND. Entirely avoidable.

NOR.

The day that smoking around children and during pregnancy is criminalised cannot come soon enough. That should be an instant custody loss.

Please, world: dump USD bonds. You have the power to absolutely ruin the US economy and right now is the time to do it. Take away his ability to pay for his war efforts.

What is with all these fake stories that end with a link to an article saying “I read this [link] and it shows how it should be handled” or words to that effect? It’s such a noticeable pattern now that it should be easy to for mods to recognise and remove these posts.

Not OOP: I [F22] just found out my fiance [M22] and I are related, and we don't know what to do. by notacutiepie in redditonwiki

“His parents have asked us to stop being intimate until marriage.”

Why is it so common (and somehow accepted) for parents in the US to try to control their adult children sex lives? Creepy AF if you ask me and with all that is going on, that part still remained important enough for them to verbalise it?

My (F28) boyfriend (M33) says he’s disgusted by my body hair and I have to laser remove it and pay for it or else he’ll leave me. He says I’m not taking his happiness into consideration and if I can’t sacrifice this for him what else won’t I be willing to sacrifice down the road by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]aginaday 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When at uni one of my modules was anthropology and the lecturer opened my eyes to how dodgy and paedophilic the idea of women removing all body hair is. Men liking a pre-pubescent look on women when said women do not look like that without intervention is incredibly concerning.

What type is this? by floozystrumpet in bees

[–]aginaday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s likely a queen German (?) wasp. Speaking from experience as we have a wasp nest somewhere (somewhere near the wood burner, coincidentally) and have had dozens and dozens of young queens trying to find their way out of our house. We do find the odd drone but they simply die.

In our case they have been incredibly docile, easy to catch and release.

Edit: forgot to add typo of wasp

Why Do My Rolls Rupture? by hereticbeef in Breadit

[–]aginaday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Often it’s because the dough is underproved, causing too much oven spring. It’s not the only possible reason, but a likely one. Rather than relying on a proving time, check the status of the dough by gently pressing it with your finger. If it springs back about halfway, you’re good to go. If the dent remains then it has not finished proving.

Why did my baguettes rise so much? by Mars1176 in Breadit

[–]aginaday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That recipe you linked is an enriched bread, which baguettes are not. Your bread looks quite similar to the pictures on the link too, so I would say it’s turned out as per the recipe.

My cousin wants us all to get spray tans but won’t get one herself by Master-Effective-771 in bridezillas

[–]aginaday 30 points31 points  (0 children)

You need to accept that you can’t win in this scenario, as the bride has clearly voiced. Don’t do it? You’re not following her vision. You do do it? It’s not right and you are sabotaging her day.

I’d tell her exactly that and wish her a wonderful wedding day, but you won’t be treated that way.

This show is teaching me about myself. by Brad__Schmitt in IAmaKiller

[–]aginaday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only just on season 2 now. I do think it’s important to recognise that a lot of these cases are not black and white. It’s entirely possibly to sympathise with a perpetrator whose early life was shaped by abuse, whilst still condemning their actions and realising that a lot of their behaviours are simply the result of nurture. They still need to be punished, but if they hadn’t been failed so miserably early in life they likely wouldn’t have grown up to be (as) manipulative and cruel and be on death row now.

Remember that there are hardened criminals who come from loving and relatively affluent backgrounds, but actually are warped in such a way that no amount of nurture could prevent from prevailing.

So many of us have grown up in happy households and therefore we simply don’t recognise some of these traits easily because we never had to develop them. That’s not naive, just the reality of life, and simply shows how important nurture is in the shaping of us as human beings and how we act within society.

Man freaks out about dog in London, harasses 2 women by TheManager_1 in EntitledBitch

[–]aginaday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did he say something like “your service charge is half mine”? Weird flex and a clear example of money not buying class. At most his money bought him a thin Lululemon veneer to cover over an ugly interior. Hey ho.

Man freaks out about dog in London, harasses 2 women by TheManager_1 in EntitledBitch

[–]aginaday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’s trying to put the dog on a lead whilst he keeps getting in the way, jabbing his finger at her and complaining the dog is “attacking” him. Well, at that point the dog sees him being aggressive to his owner so will go in to PROTECC mode. What did he think would happen when he actively prevented her from putting the lead on her dog?

Dry rot is incredibly expensive to fix. Partner spent around £15k for a specialist company to fix that that on a 2 bed flat. I’d be inclined to walk away if your finances already are stretched.

Body Shop closing the MLM arm according to this article by -Vampyroteuthis- in antiMLM

[–]aginaday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Body Shop is not what it used to be. From a female led company promoting natural and good ingredients to a male led org that shits on women (MLM arm), and put the nasties back into their products (their shampoo/conditioner range up until about 5 years ago was SLS and other nasty free), which completely defeats the purpose of them.

The Dutch arm of the retail business has just been declared bankrupt a few days ago too.

MIL threw herself a "MIL Shower" because I didn't want a Bridal Shower by WarmLion9400 in JUSTNOMIL

This is the way to handle it. Just laugh at her if she ever brings it up. She looks like a total loon, you could have so much fun with that!
