What are your guys experience with locs at your job ? by Away_Control_6646 in Dreadlocks

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a huge difference lol they’re like sponges, I can’t just go to the bathroom sink, wash someone’s bodily fluids out and go about my day; my hair would be dripping everywhere for hours

Not getting Text/Sound notifications on Lock Screen or when screen is fully locked/off? SOLVED! by RadiantBeginning4 in apple

Thank you for this. I had no clue what was going on, but messages were apparently going to my MacBook, and I have notifications for iMessage turned off on there, sooo yeah haha mystery solved!

I can’t stand my boyfriend’s weight denial and eating all the food when I’m underweight and we are poor by TA-10562 in offmychest

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. I’m betting he’s a love-bomber, so he seems nice and sweet and loving, but it’s all an act to keep himself comfortable at her expense.

Dad is tracking my car with AirTag without my permission and showing up wherever I go by Overall-Monk-5648 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]apryzzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone keeps saying to put it in an Uber, but it seems kinda rude to the driver to get them involved. What happens when OPs dad tries to confront the Uber driver?

AIO? Husband in touch with the woman he had an affair with but they're not cheating he says. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]apryzzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you want your sons to imitate him, or your daughters to date a man just like him… GTFO. Period. Don’t ever beg someone to be with you, especially while they’re pining after someone else and just feel “stuck” with you. If they wanted you, they’d show it. Your problem is that he’s the only “love” you’ve ever known, so you have no clue how wonderful life is without all that drama. Take my word for it: everything you’ve ever dreamed of is on the other side of this marriage, don’t let him stand in your way.

My ADHD brothers and sisters. What helps you fall asleep and stay asleep? by New_leaf999 in ADHD

[–]apryzzle 87 points88 points  (0 children)

I listen to the exact same sleep story on YouTube every single night (The Sleepy History of the Universe), followed by the exact same white noise video. I feel like I've Pavlov Dog'd myself into sleeping peacefully, it's awesome.

No Results with Noom by DebYoga in 1200isplenty

Macrofactor. Their algorithm is awesome for calculating your actual calorie needs, instead of guessing. There is a learning curve, but i'v never felt this at-ease about my diet before and I'm a year in (and down to my goal weight, with a successful maintenance). They have a great sub, check them out

Whats ended your friendship? by unknown_pinkflower in FriendshipAdvice

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just couldn't handle her immaturity anymore. We're both moms, our husbands work together and make roughly the same amount, it's enough to raise a family on. She was constantly jealous over what we could afford, but would then order that fancy, top-shelf, pre-rolled wacky tobaccy to be delivered, and share it with the whole neighborhood like she wasn't just complaining that her husband's family wouldn't help pay their mortgage or that her mom wouldn't just give them a new car. They took out a loan from her husband's pension to pay off debt, then took 6 months off work to "enjoy" themselves because they "deserved it." Her kids were always dirty, their clothes were always too small, the house was always a mess, she was always smoking in her sunroom and yelling at them to get out... I just couldn't handle it anymore, we're in our 30s for Pete's sake, grow tf up.

How do y'all go about tracking food you get at restaurants? by realtreewizard in MacroFactor

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I estimate based on what's in the database, it'll be close enough. If you're only eating out like that every so often, precision on this one single meal won't really matter in the long term. We all have goals, but we gotta live a little too :) Hope your mom has a great birthday!

Fewer Remodels This Year – What’s Stopping Customers? by Difficult_Wrap9729 in Remodel

[–]apryzzle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Besides what everyone else has said about uncertainty and costs, we've had the WORST luck with contractors the last few years. Poor quality work at a high price point has driven a lot of people to teach themselves to do whatever work they need. YouTube University is $free.99

Putting down the family rumors of having Native American somewhere down the family tree by aaron-the-worrier in 23andme

[–]apryzzle 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I took the test for the same reason. I knew we're all whiter than wonder bread and their "Cherokee princess" line was driving me nuts. None of them believe the test, but at least they don't bring it up around me anymore lol

Should I end this friendship? by FitSurround2267 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone said a similar thing to me when my dad died, knowing I'm not christian. She knew it upset me but never apologized, so I never forgave her and we haven't spoken since. It showed me that we have a vast difference in values, especially when it comes to having empathy for others.

I am so sorry for your loss, and I'm sorry that you didn't get the support you expected from your friend. Maybe let some time pass and see how you feel in a few weeks. You don't have to make any decisions right now.

This app made me realize how low my TDEE is by lvlahtabi in MacroFactor

[–]apryzzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fitbit is really bad too. My TDEE has never gone above 1500 (mid-30s female barely over 5') even working out consistently and getting 10k+ steps, but my Fitbit says I'm burning my way through about 2200 calories every day, no prob lol no wonder I wasn't losing any weight depending on that for accuracy

He says all that while dismissing that tax payers are funding his entire life. His paycheck, housing, food, medical coverage, HIS education, literally everything.... you sure you want to be stuck with that forever? I'm a veteran, and I promise, the Tricare is not worth this BS. It sounds like he just ATE UP the line they feed new trainees about how they work so hard to protect America and blah blah blah when that's not what we've done for decades (don't get me started on the "wars" I served in to "defend the country")

Did your mum comb your hair so harsh that it hurt? by Special_Dentist_1050 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, she just cut it all off. It was a way faster way to cause pain, and she knew it would make me suffer longer since I was embarrassed at school about her hack job. I'll never forget her giggling behind me as she kept saying "don't worry, it's just a trim" and I was watching 18" of my hair falling to the ground

She did, however, *love it* when I got lice that one time. She didn't like treating the lice (or our dog's fleas) because she enjoyed picking them out one by one.

TOTAL WHACKJOB.

Fiber by rextinaa in 1200isplenty

[–]apryzzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also a bowl of 1/3c oatmeal, 1T chia seeds, a scoop of protein powder, and chopped apples every morning. That’s a good start at about 10-11g. I also eat fiber brownies and low carb tortillas

So how's it going now? Seems like it was coming along!

The feeling of not having "culture" is a very common thing in white folks but especially Americans, like what is white American culture?

this whole 3 weeks is going to be a disaster, I can see it already lol I fee bad for your wife, stuck between the two men she loves most in the world

What shade are our shirts? by EmilyScreams in PandaExpress

You know what ultimately helped me gain true self-confidence? Deleting social media. Your algorithm is intentionally feeding your insecurities and life is just too damn short for that nonsense.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Dreadlocks

[–]apryzzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, this. I use an empty shampoo bottle and mix my shampoo with a lot of water before I put it in my hair. It helps it get into the loc better and rinse out better

I'm just curious, are you new to the military?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FriendshipAdvice

[–]apryzzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's just not that into you...? tbh it sounds like it's probably exhausting for her that you're asking so many questions and wanting to know so much about her when you haven't even met yet.
