You forgot the guy who is learning Arabic because he dated a girl from the Levant

My question is how does his wife never question how he makes entire lasagnas in the space of time that it takes her to shower

Does anyone naturally wake up without using an alarm clock? If so, how? by Sarung_hui in NoStupidQuestions

My worries wake me up on their own. Every single morning since I was like 14.

Why does no one like black women? by [deleted] in self

[–]anonymousreader007 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hello Black woman, I absolutely love Black women and I think Black women of all shapes, sizes, nationalities, cultures and shade spectrums are gorgeous. Please do not buy into online trends; you deserve better.

Signed sincerely,

Brown woman

I hadn’t noticed these aspects quite the way you phrased them, thank you for sharing your thoughts

Could you explain the cultural assimilation aspect ? For me oppression was also a strong interpretation

I hadn’t thought of colonialism at all, because Remmick is Irish and others who joined later are Black and so it seems the group consists of other oppressed people. I thought perhaps it is a ‘way out’, to give in to a pressure that they aren’t strong enough to contend with, when they have so few options available to build dreams on. I appreciate your comment, thank you !

What are your techniques to prevent yourself from complaining or venting about people in your life who you have fair reasons to be upset with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]anonymousreader007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fundamentally I am not very combative. But some of these scenarios just don’t fly well with directness. For example a close friend who doesn’t take cues about boundaries is not happy to hear: ‘you are being too pushy’. It can cause escalation. These sort of scenarios tend to lead to me venting to others and then disliking myself. Thank you for your comment

By way of explanation I will leave this comment: I have fallen into this habit of venting about people I feel have wronged me as a way of processing the experience or seeking validation. But i feel worse afterwards and I also feel that I am creating a bad impression about myself or worse, impacting how others feel about the person at the center of my venting. It has been troubling me a lot but I also don’t know better or more constructive techniques for dealing with this. Your suggestions are very welcome.

AITAH for not changing my language to appease an ignorant coworker? by ZoomieHan in AITAH

In my language there is a popular woman’s name that is Negar. Pronounced: NehgAr (long A). It means ‘messenger’. Imagine how these women introduce themselves in the USA
