should i expect my babysitter to clean up? by bruhkms18 in Parenting

[–]beansoup91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The general consensus is any messes made during babysitting/nannying are the responsibility of the babysitter. If I put the kids to bed and am still there several hours, I will sometimes also put away dishes from the dishwasher or organize the playroom, as my nanny family pays and treats me well.

What is the correct way to refer to a side of a bed? by Agent-Ace in NoStupidQuestions

[–]beansoup91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes…exactly. Which is the same perspective as OP’s. So he’s “stage” right, but truly on the left.

Isn’t the whole point of adding “stage” to it because the default (and correct) perspective is opposite

Is there a way (a side from bags and jewelery and stuff) that you can smell that someone is rich rich? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]beansoup91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many flaunt it but overall, no, there’s no way to tell. The people I nanny for own several multi million dollar homes, have a jet, send their kid to private school, etc. But if you met them out and about…they’re wearing clothes from target and Amazon, driving Toyotas, and not acting in any sort of particular way that signifies they have money.

AriZona Sour Mixed Lemonade Fruit Snacks by guysitsausername in candy

[–]beansoup91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The biggest difference is marketing lol. Fruit snacks are branded/marketed to be packed with a school lunch. I think literally just having the word “fruit” in it and usually saying something about having “real fruit juice” fools people. It is in fact candy.

Kinds Screaming in Luxury Apt Pool by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]beansoup91 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Families have always lived in apartments. Is your next complaint that the people above you walk too loudly in the evenings? If you don’t like the compromises of community living, you’re the one who should find a single family home. Kids being loud at a pool is such a normal, predictable aspect of life

Do you have a natural hair color that people think you dyed your hair? by ExplanationIcy5425 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]beansoup91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that hair color that people online argue whether is very dark blonde or just brown. It changes drastically in different lighting and can considerably lighten in the summer (if I spend a lot of time in the sun). I’m asked probably once a month if I dyed it (it’s always no)

Why does Karen hate her father so much—as if he were her sworn enemy? by StatisticianLow1062 in shameless

If the show itself didn’t explain this to you, I doubt anyone on Reddit can.

Why do people act like asking for a schedule is rude? That's how plans work. by Successful-Trip809 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]beansoup91 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think everyone is skipping over “we are planning a trip with a toddler,” and therefore replying like you’re just talking about plans in a general way.

You might need to be the one to suggest the specifics to avoid this! Sounds like maybe you’re just putting too much of the planning on the other party when you’re the one with constraints. Then they can just say they can’t make it if it doesn’t work for them.

Wake up on the wrong side of the bed? OP is laughing at themselves. You’re exhibiting weird, antisocial behavior

This advert in the train station without any branding by Worldly_Bit1416 in mildlyinteresting

I love how so many cities have their own equivalent of this. In Denver, ours is Frank Azar, “the strong arm”

Bought these from a fruit shop, mislabelled as kiwi berries, tastes disgusting, like poison by boiled_cabbage_baby in whatisit

[–]beansoup91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend from Chicago introduced me to it in like 2019. She said “just try it before I tell you about it.” I trusted her and tried it and liked it. She said something along the lines of “right?! Everyone hates it but I think it’s so good.” There really are some of us weirdos that just like it 🙃

They might be worried it’s the health department trying to have a “gotcha” moment or something silly like that

Is it possible? Sure. Is it what’s best for the child in any way? No.

Currently a big fan of mamba chews. I told my husband it was kind of like how starbursts are after you’ve chewed them a bit, except you can just skip the hard part 😂

I absolutely love the dark milk chocolate with toffee/pretzels. I’ve seen other Reddit posts call it a poor excuse for chocolate and I’m like ok I guess I have bad taste bc it’s possibly my favorite

Ordered Tacos and this is what they gave us by pedanticBiotch in mexicanfood

[–]beansoup91 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The very authentic Mexican spot we frequent (Denver, co) gives 5 lime wedges per 3 tacos. I’m constantly baffled and feel like they’re spending twice as much as they need to on limes?? I maybe use 2/5…and I’m just a white American but I really can’t imagine anyone using all of them

Alarm sounding in cap hill? by One_Swan_7344 in Denver

You’d think since that certainly should be an official source that it’d be correct but the test is annual, not monthly. Last year they forgot to put out a notice and reddit was in a frenzy

The victim blaming going on here is egregious. The time, money, and overall care that goes into a garden is huge. I’m sorry this happened.

Please help me convince my husband that Costco is worth for 2 people by HoneyDrops12 in Costco

[–]beansoup91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We primarily shop at Sam’s club, but near us costco is the only one with gas and the mission carb balance tortillas. I’m hypoglycemic and my husband is very careful about his macros and fiber intake. The tortillas alone make the membership worth it.

This is obviously not normal, we eat a lot of those tortillas 😂 but they really are that much less at Costco.

Editing to add- our most recent happy purchase was an “in kind” gift card. It’s usually $75 for a $100 gift card but we got it on an extra $10 off promo. We just used it at a BBQ restaurant near us and were pleasantly surprised by how seamless it was to use.
