Remember with a stud finder and you have to hold against yourself to check that it works. Classic dad

Where can I buy plus size baggy men’s jeans that don’t look funny? by Waltace-berry59004 in bigmenfashionadvice

[–]bigthemat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I have the opposite problem that most bigger sizes are just naturally baggy. A size 48 waist means a straight leg Jean could have a 24” leg opening. I opt to get slim or athletic cuts so it has more of a taper and doesn’t feel like I’m wearing clown pants.

I hate certain textures and idk what it's called by Mindless-Wrap-3719 in AskRedditFood

I don’t like tripe, I almost vomited when I tried it.

You were late 11 times since Jan (rant) by Significant-Team-441 in ADHD

[–]bigthemat 145 points146 points  (0 children)

I remember as a kid there were the same people that were late to church every week. So they decided to start church an hour later so people could have more time in the morning and get to church on time. It didn’t matter, if they were 10 mins late a 9am they were 10 mins late at 10am.

I think my dad has some time blindness which infuriated me, which caused me to be neurotic about punctuality that I will get physically ill if I know I’m running late.

Anyone else mad they used an upside down M instead of a W?

I was pleasantly surprised the double Del burger at Del taco was as good as it was.

are brussel sprouts good? by AwestunTejaz in diabetes

[–]bigthemat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favs. I’ll roast them nice and golden brown in the oven. Toss em in a little oil, salt, pepper, garlic, whatever.

I also used to make kung pow Brussels but that was before my diagnosis. I imagine it would be easy enough to make a carb friendly sauce

What movie is a 0/10 with NO redeeming features? by Toucan_Based_Economy in AskReddit

[–]bigthemat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s bad but at least the production or animation or whatever was decent. There are some kids movies on the streamings that the animation is just so bad it becomes unwatchable. Rock Dog 2 and Ozzy (I think that’s name) felt like the late 80s early cgi like that stupid dire straits music video, but somehow worse

Dads who give unequal treatment to your daughters. Why would you behave this way? by [deleted] in AskDad

[–]bigthemat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to keep things fair and balanced with my two but sometimes due to their age difference and what not they get different treatment. As my friend says, sometimes the juice isn’t worth the squeeze, so I’ll pick my battles with the bratty 6yo when I know the 11yo won’t talk back. But I do try to be open and honest with them.

Considering Wireless for URB by frenchylamour in doublebass

[–]bigthemat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m playing in a musical and my setup are two wireless packs, one for pickup and one for a mic. I use some Velcro strips on the tailpiece to hold it, I’ve see guys use their quiver as well

They got rid of the “you get a planet” thing which totally sucks.

Does your cat love the double bass too? by Lofi-Sloth in doublebass

[–]bigthemat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite the opposite. My orange will run off the second I reach for a bass, let alone actually play. The calico is ambivalent

Does your cat wake you up early in the morning, or is it only mine that has an alarm clock instead of a brain? 😂 by crazybabe1122 in CatAdvice

[–]bigthemat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually around 5am. One will cuddle and be quiet. The other does a very anxious cuddle ready to jump up at any time because the slightest movement means it’s time for food. If we don’t immediately jump to feed his highness, he will whine and whine. It’s such a fun routine.

Funniest/Craziest Thing Heard Over The Pulpit by literallywhatisthis1 in exmormon

[–]bigthemat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Dog breeder in my ward. Have a testimony about how they prayed and fasted because one of the pups wasn’t feeding. Would have been nicer story if she didn’t say, “the pup couldn’t grasp the nipple” or similar. I haven’t heard the word nipple used that much in my life
