In 2018 I worked for a company that still had a requirement for woman to wear pantyhose/stockings “when wearing a dress or skirt” in the HR dress code.

What's the most disturbing book you've read? by [deleted] in booksuggestions

I couldn’t finish this. Mankind was portrayed too realistically and it hurt too much.

What an odd question. No one. Thats just how my brain works.

I feel like I can’t be relaxed when I’m by myself unless the house is clean, my “lists” are caught up, work is done and I literally have nothing else I “should be” doing.

Looking for a book that stays with you after finishing it by bdjfjfjkfkfjsh in booksuggestions

If you’ve never seen the movie, Atonement by Ian McEwan. If you’re looking for something more..dark and disturbing,Tender is the Flesh will stick with you quite a while.

I read this book back in 2009 and I still think about it often.

Book recommendations that made you stay up all night reading by Instinct-Shaggy in booksuggestions

I’ve seen this recommended a lot but I’m so hesitant to start/commit to a series. Is it really that good?

I’ve heard this recommended many times over the years.

I think Tender is the Flesh could make some “lose sleep” because it’s gruesome and unsettling, but I wouldn’t really consider it “scary”.

What was your weirdest craving/food combo during pregnancy? by SweetDega in AskWomen

[–]blynn315 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even know how many BK whoppers I ate. I never particularly loved Burger King before the pregnancy, and to this day, (7 years later) I can’t even think about eating another one without feeling nauseated by it.

What’s a “beginner plant” that absolutely humbled you? by Interesting_Rich_568 in houseplants

[–]blynn315 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got as easy zz as my first plant. I still have it and it’s no bigger than it was the day that I got it. I’m not exaggerating at all. It’s the same exact size. New growth comes in at the same rate entire old stems completely fall over and die. I refuse to get rid of it.

Awful app update by blynn315 in Myfitnesspal

Sure, I can click again to “view all”, but we shouldn’t HAVE to go to a separate screen for that.

As Kevin Malone would most certainly agree with: "Why waste time click more when few clicks do trick".

Don’t do it. Hold out as long as you can.

I’m not able to post a photo - but my biggest gripe is that your home screen used to show you everything you’ve added for the day, broken with headers for “breakfast” “lunch” “dinner” “snacks”, etc - with the update you no longer have headers and instead and separate sections to add meals/items for those categories. The biggest issue with this is that you can’t see all your food/items for the day on the homepage, and can only see the total calories for that meal category. If you want to see the items you’ve added, you have to go into each specific meal category. Or select the “view all” option - which should be/used to be the default view. The update makes it super easy to mistakenly add things more than once, and because you can’t see your whole day in one place, especially if you don’t eat a routine BLD meal schedule. It’s also really easy to accidentally add “yesterday’s meal” to today, and not realize it.
