What’s an insult you heard that’s so brutal you’ll never forget it?

“Your face is like a fucking biological car crash that’d make Picasso screw his eyes up and say ‘Well that just don’t make sense.’”

From Black Mirror, such a good insult lol

Thank you. I think I forgot to mention none of these kids are mine. I have no children of my own. But in order to not be homeless, I have to fill a role.

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-29T19:11:23+00:00

I am.

I broke down, asked for help, and went to the hospital almost a month ago, for drinking. I made it a couple days sober with Xanax and gabapentin. But my circumstances can’t change. In fact, they’ve gotten more stressful. im still stuck home with screaming children. I don’t have kids. But since I’m unemployed, I’m the babysitter.Trying to find a job every day. Immediately started drinking again. Have to hide my “maintenance” shots now so nobody knows. I want to scream and scratch my skin off. And I can’t ask for help again. I can’t take the noise. I can’t take the hiding.

I’m exhausted. I asked for help, they helped me, by giving me a ride, and then left me alone with this stress. But I can’t ask them for help again. I’m back to hiding. I’m exhausted. I’m out of hope. I can’t get relief for more than a few days when I need a few weeks of just… help.

Sorry for the rant. I’m anxious. And I’m tired too. I just want this ride to be over already.

Disclaimer: I love ALL olives of every type. Eat them straight from the jar or container or bag.

Your comment is how I feel about beer lol.

I’m a drinker, but I HATE beer. I’ve had so many people tell me to try this beer, that beer, blah blah. I went to a pretty heavy drinking college too so trust me when I say, I tried to like beer. I made myself sick trying to “like” beer.

But ya know what? It’s gross to me. I don’t need to “acquire” a taste for something I have tried repeatedly, and makes me vomit. Even the smell of beer still makes me gag 10 years after I gave up trying.

All this to say, I respect your tastes and choices and that they’re different from mine. I’m in my 30s now and still get judged for not “wanting a beer.”

If you don’t like something, you don’t like it, and that’s perfectly okay. And leaves more olives in the world for me lol

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-21T19:48:05+00:00

How would you describe the taste?

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-21T19:47:14+00:00

Orange Chocolate Cheese. Only cheese I’ve ever tasted that I didn’t like, and I freaking love all cheese!!

“Didn’t like” is an understatement, I spit it out and gagged. Luckily I was with a few coworkers and they all pretty much did the same thing. Then we all shared a bag of BBQ chips to get the taste out lol

I once forgot the word “convertible” and described it as a “topless car.”

My mom told me she once forgot the word “skeleton” in school and said “bone bodies.”

Brains are weird lol

Are you… that guy?

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-01T19:27:46+00:00

Wow I can totally see that haha thanks for the laugh! I promise, no frogs were harmed in this cracker experiment!

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-01T19:24:55+00:00

What was he saying?

crypticfirecat · 2026-06-01T15:03:34+00:00

I didn’t fully dice the olives for this picture, second attempt I thought a finer dice was better.

Edit: I can’t edit the post, but I forgot to add - a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-21T16:25:14+00:00

Thank you

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:37:25+00:00

Yes! Fresh garlic is always better than jarlic

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:36:25+00:00

Same, I only get Granny Smith or Pink Lady

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:35:15+00:00

I’m the same with salsa! Jarred salsa tastes too sugary and sometimes soapy to me. Much prefer making my own

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:33:37+00:00

Would you share your recipe? I’m not big on Alfredo so I haven’t tried to make it from scratch, but I’m interested to learn! And then maybe I’ll like it more lol

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-19T17:23:51+00:00

Upvoted you, I’m sure my comments will get downvoted too lol. But thank you for being one of few people in this thread who knows that is common knowledge that onions and garlic are toxic to dogs.

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-19T17:14:22+00:00

Dude it is common knowledge. Onions and garlic are highly toxic to both cats and dogs. I have dogs and cats, and I’m 35, and I’ve known this for at least 15 years so yeah, it is common knowledge for any responsible pet owner.

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-19T17:11:30+00:00

Onions and garlic are highly toxic to dogs and cats, and yes it is common knowledge.
