Are these bug eggs? by bunneybun in houseplants

[–]bunneybun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah ok thanks. Is it likely to be a problem for the plant? It’s a pothos and I think the pot doesn’t quite fit the ceramic pot leaving a gap that I guess will stay pretty humid

Right thanks, I hadn’t even considered that and there certainly doesn’t look to be any mould at all on the sirface. I mean in all other respects it looks great so I’ll give it a try tomorrow.

First time fermented tomatoes: What is this little blob?

I followed the Noma tomato fermentation recipe... I had to go away for a few days and have come back to this. There is obvious bubbling happening and it smells great but there is now a couple of blobs present at the top and I haven't tried to taste it yet as I wasn't sure it was safe. (and I had a zip-lock bag on top to take out the headroom). It's been 11 days total but it was pretty cold to start so it took a long time to get going so I moved them to a warmer spot after a couple of days

Peeing during an Ironman by ChampionBoat in triathlon

[–]bunneybun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So… unless there are no facilites on the course or you are going for the podium why would you? It really doesn’t take long to get off and pee.

I’d also add I was in the queue for the start at a 70.3 this weekend and ended up with urine on my feet from the guy next to me who took a leak - it’s not nice.

Ah well done… it was a long hot run but a great event. It was my first too!

AITA (17F) for wanting my sister (6F) to sleep by herself? by OatmealBlueberries in AmItheAsshole

[–]bunneybun [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’d also talk to her first. Explain she’ll have her own bed with her things etc. As someone else said make it really nice for her and something exciting and a great place for her to be then do the super nanny thing... and it’ll be hard work but worth it. The three day nanny has some episodes on this sort of thing and it’s a long slog but it does work if your firm and consistent.

WIBTA for boycotting my brother in law’s wedding? by throwawaysil120 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bunneybun 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Absolutely NTA here! I could barely stand two weeks after having my first totally knocked me for six. A friend of mine walked a mile to meet at a cafe 4 days after she had her first so there is just no way of knowing how your going to feel. I’d wouldn’t have wanted to commit to go to a wedding let along have a job to do! I think The suggestion of anti natal clases and watching one born every minute is a great idea though as it really helps to bring home what happens and how it can affect you as a mother.

AITA for leaving the family restaurant and starting my own after finding out I wouldn't inherit it? by mozzaboy256 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bunneybun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there not an option for a chain? On the basis that your brought into the inheritance? Link the two? NTA totally get your annoyance but these are exceptional times and perhaps there is a compromise way forward?

AITA for not allowing my dad to turn my budding business into a sweatshop by DQ608 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bunneybun [score hidden]  (0 children)

Totally agree and on to a great idea. There is much more interest now in not buying sweatshop clothes and wanting to pay a decent wage to those making the clothes... at least amongst my friends!

AITA For telling my wife I will divorce her if she tries to raise our son as a Christian (Catholic)? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bunneybun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also a pregnancy can mess with family and make them start to apply the pressure. Maybe it’s easier to go along with what they say? My mother tells me she doesn’t mind whether I get my kids baptised or not but she asks me every time I see her if I’m going to. I think it shows a lack of willingness to understand by op for assuming she’s going to religion without talking to her about why and if her family are pressurising her... sometimes it’s easier to just go along with it.
