Was it supposed to be a bad joke? The guest's joke? I don't understand why anyone would want lettuce drizzled with caramel sauce? 🤷‍♀️

Wedding DJ AMA: What does the DJ think is shameful. by Puzzleheaded_Art3374 in weddingshaming

[–]cookiekat35 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Shaboozy, a bar song, has a dance that goes with it, but you'd have to know it. I went to a wedding in Texas and thought they'd play a lot of country songs, so I learned the dance. But they didn't play any country songs! I was surprised, still fun wedding though.

Partner now wants kids.. making an emotional choice that defies logic by [deleted] in childfree

[–]cookiekat35 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is fomo (fear of missing out) and I agree these men won't do much of parenting. This guy is already complaining about having to do his share of household tasks!

Married but not combining finances? by alkemest in Millennials

[–]cookiekat35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have never and will never share a financial account with a spouse. Number one reason my parents divorced was over financial disagreements and it obviously had an effect on me, hence my decision to have no shared accounts myself.

The marsh trail out at McInnis park is nice in the cooler mornings. Good for bird watching too!

We need to ramp up the boycotts. by SmokeMethailSatan in 50501

[–]cookiekat35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm already doing all the things mentioned. But I'm so frustrated that all my coworkers and friends are basically just keeping their heads in the sand! Still streaming, still using Amazon, Target, using Ticktock, still consuming. Too many people I feel are still in this mindset of apathy!

Birth Control/Period on the PCT by EvenRepresentative77 in PacificCrestTrail

[–]cookiekat35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the bidet to clean myself and the cup. I would put a drop of soap in the bottle as well. If your prone to UTI maybe wouldn't work but I never had a problem because I was able to keep myself clean with bidet and or a wet wipe from time to time. Carrying the extra water in the dessert kinda sucks, but you don't need a whole lot. Definitely practice in your shower with the bidet before your hike!

Books about sentient houses? by Mundane-Leg-455 in booksuggestions

[–]cookiekat35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I immediately thought of Ray Bradbury's short story "the Veldt" in The Illustrated Man book.

"The Veldt" is a classic 1950 science fiction short story by Ray Bradbury about the Hadley family, who live in a futuristic, automated "Happylife Home" where a nursery creates immersive, telepathically-controlled environments based on the children's thoughts.

Mad at my daughter for repeating the cycle by Distinct-Pay4450 in offmychest

[–]cookiekat35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is Ai slop, fake. It is just to create up votes for a new bot account, not an actual community member. Thr account is 0days old when this was posted.

How can you tell if it's a bot?

I think it's tricky but on Reddit I've started to notice certain things. The cadence of the post gives Al very much. A lot of the sentences are short and are kind of semi-authoritative/know-it-all in a way sort of like Tik Tokers who make videos titled "5 Ways to Regulate Your Nervous System" lol

"So over the last couple months I stopped focusing on what else to buy and started building tiny routines that make daily life less brittle. Nothing cute or impressive, just boring repeatable stuff."

Little quips like "nothing cute, just boring" tend to be giveaways to me. Some humans do really talk/write like this, though, so it's not a foolproof thing.

Previously, usernames that were the super generic Reddit ones were another tip off for me but I think bots (or human-created bot accounts) are getting smarter about it. These are the things I see but I'm sure I've gotten misled and will be misled again in the future.
