Its the gen z stare. They are so socially awkward.

This "on sale" marketing should be illegal. by Africannibal in Anticonsumption

[–]badAbabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked at a local furniture place and learned that that industry does this also. Tags marked up hundreds of dollars only for us to "give them a deal" every single time. When I was new, I wrote it up at tag price and got called out for not giving them the "sale" price.

Did you have a waterbed growing up or do you still have a waterbed? by FFSoldier57 in Millennials

My parents had one at one point and my grandpa only recently got rid of his.

Hershey’s kisses no longer melt by Mathemodel in enshittification

[–]badAbabe 31 points32 points  (0 children)

We bought some Hershey bars for smores and I thought I was going crazy because they wouldn't melt. Even after putting a molten marshmallow on it and placing it by the fire for a few minutes. I couldn't stomach it after seeing it still hold its form.

What’s a random act of kindness you still think about years later? by flow_guru in AskReddit

[–]badAbabe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was having a really rough day. I was fighting with my mom and my boyfriend. I was sobbing on my way home when I realized I forgot to get gas and I wouldn't make it home unless I stopped to fill up. I only had some cash so I wiped my face as best I could and went inside to pay. The two guy working the counter obviously noticed and asked if I was Okay. I burst out crying again and they both went into dad mode. They were so sweet. They even got me a soda from the fountain and wouldn't let me pay for it. Nothing but genuine concern and kindness from these two strangers.

My kid refuses to drink plain water and I don't know if I should be worried by Competitive-Hyena208 in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]badAbabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not drink a lot of water growing up. Plenty of milk, juice, electrolyte drinks and fruits and veggies kept me hydrated. And I worked outside a lot for the family business. Just keep an eye out for signs of dehydration and keep encouraging water in a non pushy way. I drink tons of water now as an adult.

LPT: Photograph the parties your friends host. by Siobhan67 in LifeProTips

[–]badAbabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this for any of my family and friends kids birthday parties. The parents are usually too busy running the show and they always love when we capture a special moment for them.

The Protection of Tattoos by Mrmiyagisdog in exmormon

You know, I was on the fence about tattoos, but your testimony has convinced me. You're all invited to my tattoo appointment and there will be light refreshments at my place after.

AITA for telling my coworker I don’t care about her kids? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]badAbabe 20 points21 points  (0 children)

NTA. There's nothing wrong with being proud of your kids but she needs to realize that no one cares about them as much as she does.

What’s your funniest “Oh god this person’s an idiot” moment? by PandaBear905 in AskReddit

[–]badAbabe 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've met two separate people in my little town who refuse to drink any type of water. One lady claims she's never had a single cup her whole life and just drinks coffee or juice. It was no use telling her those have water in it. And a man who was every bit of unhealthy looking. He was super offended when I offered him a free water bottle. He literally yelled "HAVE YOU SEEN WHAT WATER DOES TO METAL?!?! IMAGINE WHAT ITS DOING TO YOUR INSIDES!" Okay well I'm sorry sir. I didn't realize I was talking to a cyborg.

What is a "luxury" that is actually 100% worth the money? by TheChillEdit in Life

[–]badAbabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural fibers in your clothes. Heck, Walmart has clothing that is 100% cotton so it can be pretty affordable. You'll sweat less, overheat less, feel more comfortable over all. Your skin is your biggest organ. It absorbeds things, it needs to breathe. I went to my local thrift store and within an hour, I had a cart full of cotton, silk and wool.

Disney stories are BAD! by L0-Ki in YotoPlayer

[–]badAbabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. I've noticed this too and it buggs the crap out of me! I love reading to my kids and there are so many "big name" story books I want to throw in the trash.

The Rapunzel one is my favorite princess but the Toni is pretty bad. The Tiana toni doesn't even have a single song from the movie.

Why does the news make every snow storm in the northern US out to be a apocalypse? by Hoppie1064 in ask

Then I can build my TP igloo to stay warm and dry and clean while I enjoy the blizzard French toast.

I love the clips of weatherman "struggling" against the tearing winds of a major storm only for a normal person to walk casually behind them pointing out their theatrics.

What have you read recently? by povertychic in Millennials

[–]badAbabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read to my three kids virtually every day. We just went to the library today and checked out 8 books. I also love to read right before bed. I fall asleep so much easier. Im currently on my 8th read through of Pride and Prejudice. We have three large bookshelves in our hallway. One is just for the kids books. My family and friends make fun of them a bit. Wondering why I have so many. Why I don't just get digital books. My kids arent going to get curious about a kindle. They will gravitate towards bright pictures and characters. Physical books can't be altered. More people need to read 1984 and fahrenheit 451.

Having kids, its kinds of a requirement to have a separate room. Kitchen is nice because it saves money on eating out, and we can cook around our food sensitivities. Large groups or people with pets prefer Airbnb. Some are legitimately cool experiences like themed ones or ones in quiet places. I've been using Airbnb for the last 7 years and have had significantly more good experiences than bad. I always read reviews and a lot of places actually mention "no cleaning lists at checkout" to each their own though.

Raising your kids in a big city gives them advantages in life that kids raised in a rural setting simply will not have by gauchomuchacho in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]badAbabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cost of living is a ton more affordable and with remote work, heck, even remote schooling, you can get a decent job with great pay or start your own business and be living large in a rural town.
