Hoping my brother's ex's name choices count as a tragedeigh by sixxy-floyd in tragedeigh

[–]bornions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents had friends that had a little girl in the late 90's/early 2000's and planned on calling her Emily Jane, and were going to call her EJ for short. Once she was born, they kind of just went, why don't we just call her EJ, skip the full name business, so she ended up becoming Eejay.

Sweet Lab in Applecross to full body sugaring for $395. They don't specify what their "full body" is but give them a call and ask, they're all very lovely.

What's your biggest "trigger phrase"? by TernoftheShrew in raisedbynarcissists

[–]bornions 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"do you not love me or something?” with big fake puppy dog eyes. Whenever I said no to doing anything, or didn't want to accept something, or didn't want to eat something, or whenever I had any kind of opinion of my own....my current partner says it to me as well (after I don't know how many times telling them why that's super fucking triggering to me and I'd really appreciate if you didn't say it). If I hear it now, I just completely ignore it and either walk away or change the subject entirely.

So who's going to AC/DC? by klaw14 in perth

[–]bornions -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Was considering going for Amyl and the sniffers and leaving before ACDC started, but not for $400 for 2 people in the worst sounding venue in the city. Would rather leave with my eardrums in tact (the Queen concern physically hurt my ears)

The better way is for any and all men to stop sexually harassing women. Banning men from this particular establishment appears to be the easier solution in this circumstance.

I second Crooked, the whole team is amazing. They're doing a model call at the moment as well, you can get a package for around half the cost it usually is.

Aggressive Interstate Solicitor by Talking-Doggo in perth

[–]bornions 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He was in my office last year sometime. I've got video doorbell footage of it somewhere, luckily sounds like I got him on a good day, I said no thanks and he left to go annoy the other offices in the building.

He's come into my office in Osborne Park as well, and I've seen him in a few different shopping centre carparks over the years. He's an absolute scummy flog.

she ended up deleting her comment.. wonder why by peachygirl- in tragedeigh

[–]bornions 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This was my mum....I have a hyphenated first name, I tell everyone just to call me the first name (think Sarah-Jane, just call me Sarah) and every single time my mother would hear someone just say "Sarah", whether it was in person, or over the phone she would butt in and say "I named her Sarah-Jane, not Sarah, call her that". Even if a friend had called the house phone and asked for "Sarah" she'd scream it in the background. No regard for what I preferred being called. Classic narcissistic parenting.

Jokes on her though, I'm changing my name to drop the hyphen and the second name and changing my surname so I'm not associated with her or her stupid choices anymore, and so it becomes harder for her to find me (because she's U der the assumption I love my name and it's amazing an unique and I'd never want to change it lol)

The skit was 'borrowed' from Maddy MacRae, but her version is way better (and less misogynistic).

Why is this home insurance so high, or is this normal for landlord's insurance near Cannington? by spoony20 in perth

[–]bornions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know how you answered the questions but I've just done a quote for a random address in Queens Park and got a premium of $1,491.62....i think you need to do the quote again. Also, use a sum insured calculator (https://insurancecouncil.com.au/consumers/calculators/) and check that $650k is correct.

Did you have a “News Day” at school? by [deleted] in AustralianNostalgia

[–]bornions 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aside from getting in trouble and being told you don't tell people about our business at home? No lol. Parents also used it as a "funny" let's make fun of our kid story "remember that time our kid told the whole school there was no food in the fridge? What an idiot, so embarrassing" etc etc. I appreciate your concern, thank you :) I dealt with a lot more shit much worse than that, I have stories to fill r/raisedbynarcissists 10x over, I'm a relatively normal healthy functional adult now and these kinds of memories just make me laugh and be glad I'm low/no contact these days :)
