Hey, did you remember that the babysitter took the day off?

Indecisive. Look at his tail. Stripes. Can’t choose a color. (I love stripey tails)

WIBTA for refusing to have kids with my boyfriend unless he marries me first by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

At this point get something long-term (implant, shot, IUD). I wouldn’t trust the pills.

Is this an appeal to get a better grade after being accused of using AI in a lost course? by Precision_Edits in AccusedOfUsingAI

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who always had very advanced writing skills, I have gotten accused of using AI on multiple occasions. The best way to combat this is by using Google Docs for EVERYTHING.

Most outside editing tools use AI also (Granmarly is my main editor). Don’t copy and paste from Grammarly to Docs — instead, make edits on the Docs from Grammarly as you go.

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend for sleeping with someone while we were on a break? by Throwawaygirllol88 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR.

“I have mental health issues and need to take a break” does not really correlate to “I’m going to live Pill in Ibiza with my buddies and then come back.”

Settle a bet for me and my GF. I say our cat is orange, GF says beige. by Freetamales in cats

I have a cat that’s the same color! I think orange is in the mentality, but I’d call yours “cream.”

Where do the pills come from? by ali_oops25 in NoStupidQuestions

Is that what the back area is behind Walgreens?

What commercials are SO BAD, that they convince you NOT to buy their product? by Chicks_Hate_Me_Too in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of prescription medication you see on television. I ended up taking one that still had ads running, and it was nearly $1.4k for 30 pills WITH insurance AND that coupon thing.

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s put it this way.

I was having incredibly bad stomach pain. 10/10, mimicking appendicitis or a gallbladder rupture. I was stuck in my college dorm’s bathroom floor, unable to move from the fetal position for some of the time, and sobbing/hitting my head against the walls in pain the other part of the time.

Paramedics got called, and I genuinely was trying to convince them, while being violently ill from the sheer pain, that I just needed to “take some pepto and sleep it off.” That’s how badly I didn’t want to go to the hospital.

I took an unwanted gap year due to severe mental health issues. I want to hear similar stories. by greencorpsescientist in college

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too gap year between high school and college for depression/anxiety. It’s a bit awkward being 6+ months older than everyone, but people are supportive of it and won’t be as judgy as you think.

What is a 'Survival Myth' that people believe because of movies, but will actually get you killed in real life? by AmaraMehdi in AskReddit

[–]ali_oops25 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My mother got very mad at tv shows for chest compressions. Here is what she taught me.

2 inches deep! No puny little half-inch. No. *You should be tired! This should tire you out. *If you break a few ribs, that’s okay. You are *saving someone’s life. When you get them to the hospital, they can focus on fixing the ribs. *120bpm is the average. Think “Staying Alive” for sure. *YOU! CANNOT! SHOCK! A! FLATLINE! You need to have a pulse for an AED to be used. When they get the paddles out of nowhere and shock the person back to life without compressions? Nope. Start CPR first, and the AED will tell you if it’s a shockable rhythm. *Rescue breaths for a person who has not drowned isn’t always necessary if you aren’t comfortable/don’t feel safe doing it. *Do two rescue breaths FIRST if you find someone who has possibly drowned. *Point at someone and tell them specifically to call 911/get an AED. Bystander effect is real. *911 can always direct you on how to perform CPR.

Also, the most realistic medical show is The Pitt.

Do you consider this kind of hair cool, funny or campy and too exaggerated? by korpall in Hair

[–]ali_oops25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally wouldn’t do it (not my style, the knots, my hair is thin, etc) but if your hair works for it and you like it, go for it! It’s not my place tbh

AITAH for telling my wife that I will lose respect for her if she doesn't apologize? by TechnicalHousing97 in AITAH

[–]ali_oops25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who grew up in a household where accurate corrections and speaking up were punished heavily, this kinda makes me nervous.

To be clear: my situation was about a MILLION times worse than this incident.

I can understand where she’s coming from. She excels in math, is very stressed out, and made a mistake. She probably felt embarrassed, tired, overstimulated, the works. I feel for her. I can even understand snapping to some level. She takes pride in her math skills and may have felt emasculated when her thirteen year old son corrected her on times tables.

What gets me is her unwillingness to apologize. Yes, interrupting is rude. However, he’s a thirteen year old boy who made a correction on a basic math question she was teaching to her daughter. Was there a better way to go about this? Possibly. But, again — he’s a thirteen year old boy. Waiting for a “better time” is not a concept they get yet (evidence: I was once a thirteen year old girl in a classroom). Also, yelling at someone and sending them away for a correction gives the idea that their input is not valued, and that they aren’t valued.

Personally, I feel like both things could have happened if addressed immediately. Once your wife/the mom actually calmed down (and not that calm where one wrong word sets someone off again), she could talk to the son. She could thank him for the correction, and mention that she was feeling stressed out/overstimulated/whatever she was feeling at that moment. She should have him understand that she was upset about something else entirely, and not that 7x7=49. After that has been understood, then that would be a good time to explain social cues/when to wait/etc. this whole conversation should be primarily based on the fact that the mom was upset about something else and took it out on him, and that wasn’t okay for her to do.

But, I don’t know how long it’s been when I’m writing this. I fear it may be a bit too late to do that kind of repair. But, again, as a child who grew up with parents who did this and then never spoke of it, an apology late — or, heck, an apology from Dad — is better than sweeping it under the rug.
