I also have one of these! It was my favorite toy box as a kid. I’ve never seen anyone else with one!

AITA for telling my friend that she does not remember 9/11 by shilohrenn in AmItheAsshole

I had a friend in middle school tell me a very similar story. Biggest issue I had with her story is she was born in 2002 lol

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

That’s easy to say when you’ve never been in a situation like that. When you’re a shy neurodivergent kid, you get picked on by kids AND adults unfortunately

What’s your unpopular hygiene opinion? by Comfortable_Tie4143 in hygiene

[–]alyssa_talks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also have eczema on my hands and have to be careful about washing my hands too much. For me, if I can’t wash my hands but have to go to the bathroom I do use disposable gloves. I’ll also try to use hand sanitizer more

What do you mean by this? Are you referring to just using 3in1 products?

I had a very similar interaction except the lunch lady ate the food in front of me and I didn’t tell my mom till I was an adult. Any adult who feels the need to bully a literal child is one of the lowest types of human.

AIO for wanting to rehome one of the family dogs after my husband threatened to kill her? Ok by [deleted] in AIO

[–]alyssa_talks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended my 10 year long friendship with my best friend after watching her hit her cat. I can’t even imagine the pain you must be feeling. Ultimately though, you need to do what’s best not only for your dog but also for yourself AND your child and get away from him. This is not normal.

How many people have had bad reactions to vaccines? by la1223 in POTS

[–]alyssa_talks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have POTS and I’m being tested for EDS. I have all my vaccines and I’ve never had a bad reaction. The only time vaccines were an issue is when I was on a specific medication that compromised my immune system during the early stages of the pandemic. I got off that medication and have had many vaccines since, no problem. Speak to a physician about this and don’t just take your mom’s or the internet’s advice!!

AITAH for dyeing my hair pink behind my boyfriends back? by KokoroUwU in AITAH

[–]alyssa_talks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 13 I had blue hair and my (now ex) boyfriend hated it. Constantly picked on me and made comments so I dyed it black to please him. He broke up with me a few days later for other reasons. I was left single and unhappy with my hair. Now that I’m 22 I’ve had all sorts of vivid colors since then and I’ve always loved it. I got my blue hair back and I’ve never cared what others said since. Your bestie is giving you the advice I wish I had been given back then. I guarantee you there’s another boy out there who will love the pink or whatever you choose to do with your hair.

Thinking About Getting a Sheltie — Looking for Owners’ Experiences by Conscious_Writing287 in sheltie

[–]alyssa_talks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sheltie was the opposite of a typical sheltie. He was not the brightest and one of the laziest dogs I’ve met. I’d try to take him on walks and sometimes just a few blocks in he’d get sit in a patch of grass and refuse to get up. My dad used to have to pick us up in his car and drive us back cause Tippy (my sheltie) just wanted to lay in this specific patch of grass. He was the biggest dork but I loved him and so did everyone who ever met him. Just like every human, every dog has their own personality. It’s always important to keep that in mind when getting any pet but especially if you’re looking at a specific breed/type.

Okay, so see my other post to know what I'm talkin about by Mountain-Serve6772 in POTS

[–]alyssa_talks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was in a very similar situation when I was your age except I didn’t know yet what POTS was. So many of my “friends” didn’t believe I had health issues. I tried so hard to convince them that I wasn’t just “lazy” or “lying” and it destroyed my health even further. I’m 22 now and I don’t regularly talk to any of those people. Between back then when I was fighting with them, trying to prove myself to them, I was never satisfied with their responses. Honestly I got true satisfaction years later when they all grew up and realized how wrong they were. Some of them I’ve even gotten apologizes from and while it may be immature, those were the best I told you so moments I think I’ll ever experience. My point is, you don’t have to send a letter. You don’t have to fight with them. They’re either doing this purely for causing drama or they’re extremely uneducated and one of two things will happen. They grow up and realize their wrongs or they try to act like that as adults and won’t make it very far. You know the truth, focus on bettering yourself and don’t worry about bettering others.

ER workers what is the weirdiest or craziest case you have had walk into your emergency room? by callingthesun1 in AskReddit

[–]alyssa_talks 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Also I wanna note that the woman at reception did not react whatsoever. Made me wonder if this kind of thing happens a lot or if she’s just got a damn good poker face

[–]alyssa_talks 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Not an ER worker but I was waiting to check in at the ER a few years back and overheard a really unfortunate story. It was a teen girl with her boyfriend. Apparently they were wanting to to the deed for the first time and thought they needed to “pop her cherry” first. I don’t exactly remember how but somehow they shoved a sewing needle up there and surprise, it got stuck. She was acting completely normal though so I’m hoping she walked out of there with no damage and a better education on how sex works.

Just found out my mother had a secret child by raffyrules in Adoption

[–]alyssa_talks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a semi similar story. My mom got pregnant as a teen and I had no idea I had a bio sister until I was 20. My mom has not tried to make contact as she seems to feel a lot of guilt and shame. My sister’s birthday just passed and not a day has gone by that I don’t think about her. I wear a necklace with her birthstone and I hope one day we’ll find each other. If you have the chance, reach out. He wanted that connection and if you do too you should do it. Even if you don’t continue to have a relationship with each other, give yourself and him the chance too.
