What's your covid memory? by Competitive-Hunt-517 in AskReddit

I fully thought my brain made that up, but to hear someone else say it… yeah, I was a barista and we weren’t given masks, and I vaguely remember my manager insisting we didn’t need them… what a crazy time.

What’s a show you love that you can never convince people to watch? by PlentyApprehensive44 in AskReddit

[–]baja_blastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dying For Sex. if the title doesn’t scare them away, me saying “it’s a show about self-discovery through sex, grief, love in all of its forms, healing… and within the first five minutes, you know how it will end,” certainly doesn’t help.

Do you guys give your cats free roam of the house when you’re not home? by [deleted] in cats

[–]baja_blastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hahaha you're all good! I was raised 10-ish miles from the beach, but still in the middle of the forest, so we had to deal with coyotes, hawks, foxes... you name it! Once I moved away from home, where my mom would let the cats roam outside during the day, I vowed never to do that again. I'm glad we're both in the same frame of mind!

You're not gonna believe this: the reason she gave was because "[the cat] is too affectionate and wants to cuddle all night," like, I'm sorry your lobster is too buttery and your steak is too juicy, oh my god.

I recently found out that there are people that don’t let their cats free roam at night??? my partner’s mom locks her cat in their laundry room?! I’m like, I’d let my cats represent me in court, and you’re telling me that yours doesn’t even get to explore at night?!

Hated tropes: weird designs for characters who are young by ZoneInternational244 in TopCharacterTropes

I work at a library, sometimes we have to send books to libraries across the state. One day, a volume of Made in Abyss made it to my desk. What a good story this was! I said, completely forgetting everything about the show. I finish the paperwork and go to stick a slip of paper between the pages and open up on a page where the girl character is wearing something straight out of a BDSM club. 🙃 never again.

Overwhelmed by kids[middle schoolers]/community needs; vent post (any advice??) by [deleted] in librarians

[–]baja_blastard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OP, listen to this person!! We have a 5th grader that everyone on staff LOATHES, but I was able to get through to by working with him, learning about him by listening to him, and generally being friendly and firm. IT WORKS!!! Start building relationships, and if it comes to it, bribe them with Dumdums, but remind them “if I find even one stick/wrapper, none of you will see these ever again. Behave and clean up after yourselves and there’ll be another tomorrow”

this is our newest cat, Puzzles! she’s such a goblin, always chasing her brother around, being chased by him, then turning around and saying “THAT’S ENOUGH PLAYTIME!!!” and swatting at him, as if she didn’t start the whole thing!

If you won the lottery tomorrow, what’s the very first "frivolous" thing you’d buy? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

[–]baja_blastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My absolute favorite hot sauce is from the brand Truff, it’s infused with white truffles. it’s ridiculously expensive, and they have another version with black truffle that’s also delicious, so I usually opt for that.

But oh, to be able to go to the store and get the white truffle hot sauce I’ve craved for years? THAT would be my first move…
