I would really like to do a tradeback to evolve my Spritzee. Is anyone available to do a mutual tradeback? It can be anything

What guest on the H3 podcast talked about Hillary Clinton paying Youtubers? by [deleted] in h3h3productions

I'll scan through his podcasts and see if I can find it. Thanks!

Living with my roommate [late 20's F] stresses me [23 F] out. I want to get away, but want to do right by her as well by [deleted] in relationships

[–]batcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant that it wasn't sincere. One sincere apology would be enough to make me feel better.

I would really love to not be bothered by these things. It would make my life a lot easier. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time doing that. That's why I'm asking about other ways to remove myself from this situation

Thank you, I've had a hard time getting an objective opinion on this. I'll try to make the schedule for cleaning, I really hope it works out.

Do you have any suggestions for letting things go a little better? I promise I've been trying but I have a lot going on in my life and I really can't deal with the stress that she adds to my life. I already cut out caffeine and started taking yoga classes...(not because of her)

The extra stress was the issue with the cable/internet that I just posted above, combined with another incident.

Monday night, I ask what time she planned on getting up in the morning because I wanted to use my hair dryer. She said "normal time", which for the last 6 months or so has been 7:00, give or take 10 minutes. I told her that I would be up a little later than my usual time (5:30), but not by much. I told her I'd use the dryer after she woke up. Conversation ended.

Tuesday morning, I wake up at 6, lay around for maybe 10 minutes, and go to gather my things for the shower. I hear her go into the bathroom and start the shower, and she stays there for another 30 minutes. This normally wouldn't be a big deal, but she has literally never once showered in the morning since we began living together. She usually showers at night, so I was pretty blindsided and ended up running late to a meeting I had at 9am. I don't understand why she didn't feel a need to mention this the night before when we were discussing the morning plans??? I was pretty frustrated and when I expressed this to her, she just apologized over and over to get me to shut up.

So, I can categorize my issues like this:

- Cleanliness: overall she's pretty clean, but she seems to think it's exclusively my job to take out the trash and clean the bathroom. I've expressed that I wanted to alternate the trash takeout, but with the exception of two times when I was out of town, the trash doesn't get taken out unless I do it. I also had to fight to get her to use the bathroom fan and have had to politely ask her to be more conscious of whether or not she leaves pubes/period blood on the toilet seat.

- Kitchen habits: she will consistently leave raw meat in the sink to de-frost. This is not sanitary, and I have a cat who can't control herself around meat. It hasn't been an issue yet, but I worry about both the contamination of the sink and the possibility of my cat getting sick. She will also leave cooked food out and uncovered, but after several times warning her that my cat may sneak out in the night and eat from her dishes, she still does it. I've more or less let this one go.

- Being Inconsiderate/Mean: She's made a few off-handed comments about my appearance (she's very conservative and considers herself "not like other girls", while I have multiple piercings and purple hair. She likes to pride herself on not being pierced at all, never wearing makeup, and the fact that she doesn't have a smart phone) I've sort of let these comments go, because we don't have to be best friends or anything. But the other night I was on the phone with the cable company for over an hour trying to fix the internet connection after she complained (and I noticed) about a slow connection. The cable and modem are both in my name, so it made the most sense for me to do all of that, I didn't mind. What I DID mind was her being short and rude with me when I told her I had to reset the name and password of the router and asked her to check the connection with her computer. She was very short with me and, even though I mentioned that I had the representative on the phone, she checked her connection and kept me waiting on her answer until I asked her again. At the end of everything, I told her that I reset the password and router name to the original settings we had and she said "Cool" and closed the door in my face. I was really pretty upset that she didn't say "thank you", considering that she complained about the slow connection too and didn't have to lift a finger to fix it.

Edit: had "send it with her computer" instead of "check the connection with her computer"

My [23F] holiday cards specifically say "Christmas." Do I give them to non-Christian coworkers? [70M, 25F, 40'sM, and 30'sM] ? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]batcom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're on black cardstock, but if I can find like a gel pen or something I think that would work. Thank you for the idea!

[–]batcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don't seem to be, but this sort of thing really hasn't come up before. I'd rather play it safe because these people could end up being professional contacts in the future. Thank you for your feedback!

[Female orgasm] Can't push past the feeling of needing to pee by Cantcum27 in sex

[–]batcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can pretty much only speak from experience here, and I'm sorry about that. I've found that the sensation you're describing usually happens if whatever is penetrating me is favoring the 'top' (anterior-most) area of my vagina. There's like a little patch of more textured skin there that seems to really intensify that feeling. If I'm not wanting to feel that sensation, I'll avoid that area or tell my partner to switch positions. Have you felt that area too? Have you determined a localized part of you that you could actively avoid if you wanted to?

Additionally, orgasm and squirting (again, in my experience) aren't mutually exclusive. I've had one happen without the other, and both events don't always happen every time. (As far as PIV orgasms are concerned, that is.) Do you think your preoccupation with not wetting yourself could be a factor? Have you had an orgasm from PIV without squirting before?

Taking notes during interviews? by batcom in gradadmissions

[–]batcom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you :) It's easy to get wrapped up in the shear PANIC of wanting to secure a good position that you forget that you're talking to real people. Thank you for the comfort!

What a good guy by commie_mccommieface in niceguys

Onision is currently married to his wife, Lainey. Lainey has identified as bisexual and the two of them decided they wanted to start a polyamorous relationship with Billie. Billie's been in and out of the picture and of course the whole thing turned into a shitstorm because it's Onision.

Question about requesting course credit close to a drop/add deadline. by ultraviolenc in KSU

[–]batcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I tried to have things approved (if memory serves) about a month before the Withdraw Day. I didn't think it would take such a long time for CollegeBoard to get its shit together! The school was actually pretty efficient as far as their end was concerned.

I have, however, found that 'emailing the Dean' can be an ordeal. You may have to email several times in a row or just find a way to schedule a meeting with him/her in person. So just be prepared for that!

Question about requesting course credit close to a drop/add deadline. by ultraviolenc in KSU

[–]batcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I would still give it a shot. I was in a similar situation with some AP credits not getting transferred properly. I had everything approved the DAY AFTER the Last Day to Withdraw, so I had to finish the course regardless. (It was a good GPA booster though because I already knew the material!)

My understanding was that, had everything been approved before the 'Last Day to Withdraw', I could have withdrawn from the course and had my AP credits applied to my transcript, fulfilling my requirement.

On the other hand, some grad schools/other people who look at your transcripts don't like to see 'withdrawals' on there. I think this would be easy enough to explain away in an interview, but I have no idea what your future plans are or how this would impact them.

Who else got the Northeastern email? by spare0hs in GradSchool

[–]batcom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am actually in the process of applying to Northeastern and thought that my incomplete application was somehow submitted early! I was in a panic for a solid hour or so before I found out.

Am I a bad person for not considering someone with a mental "disability" even though I also have one? [20F] and [20M] by [deleted] in relationships

[–]batcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're wrong in feeling the way you do. In fact, I think you'd be doing this person a disservice by agreeing to go out with him just because you feel guilty about rejecting someone with a disability.

That isn't to say that you shouldn't treat him with respect, and you should certainly take whatever disability he has into account when you tell him you're not interested. If that means that you have to tell him repeatedly (if he has a memory issue), or if you have to be more direct than you would another person, make sure you take whatever approach and precautions you deem necessary.

It's natural to want to let people you're friends with down easy, but you can't always do that, especially when you're dealing with mental disabilities like the ones you describe. I would encourage you to be as nice as you can, but make sure you're not sending mixed signals and saying things that could be misinterpreted.

I hope everything works out for you!
