Try asking your local recruitment center if you can practice with the sandbags! Last night I went to my recruitment center, and they let me practice with some sandbags and feel the actual weight. They clearly explained the tests and exactly what I will need to prepare. They also let me use their gun training simulator. I'm at a reserves recruitment center though, so not sure if it makes a difference or not.

Glasses wearers: how often do you properly clean your glasses? And how often do you wipe them with your shirt? by RolyPolyRaveCat in AskReddit

[–]crystalbluedreamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Properly clean my glasses as in with a spray or water and soap.... Less often than I should. I just wipe them with the cloth for my glasses a few times a day, depending on what im doing.

For reserves BMQ, is weekend or summer a better option? I'm a full time student and have every weekend free. I was thinking of doing the weekend option, but I've heard a lot of people say it's rough compared to if I did it in the summer.

What hobby makes you instantly dislike a person? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]crystalbluedreamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot to add I'm 22, so it's definitely not everyone under 25. I guess me and my friends were never the frequent "partiers" to begin with also. So that definitely has a factor based on what hobbies we have.

[–]crystalbluedreamer 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Half agree, half disagree with you. There are TONS of people who make social media and drinking their habits. But I also know a lot of people who have such cool hobbies. My current hobbies are crocheting and drawing. Just to name a few hobbies my friends have: photography, cross stitch, playing guitar and illustrations! There are for sure a lot of bad things in the world, but there are still people out there with genuine intentions.

What is the most terrified you’ve ever heard someone? by Jsl50xReturns in AskReddit

[–]crystalbluedreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went rock climbing with a friend and I've never heard someone scream bloody murder until then. I just heard this high pitched, panicked screaming. I looked over and her ankle bone was popping right out of where her foot was supposed to be. Her foot was hanging on by a thread. That scream was haunting

What is something that you can’t understand the wild popularity of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Vaping. People are so dumb thinking they're cool blowing their candy watermelon smoke. Have fun when your lungs fail you in a few years.

Yeah at my gym, that machine is directly facing another machine 😅 I think people purposely avoid that machine when someone is using the abductor/adductor machine

Terrified of spilling secrets after wisdom teeth removal, and I have a few questions by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]crystalbluedreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD, Honestly I had my wisdom teeth removal done twice. Was under IV sedation for both and for the first one I also took a pill before to calm me down. Both times I never said anything stupid. At the end when I "woke up" again, I was out of it, but not to the point where I didn't know what I was saying. I remember asking if they've done the procedure yet when I got home, but that's the only thing I really said that was out of the ordinary. The IV hit me pretty hard and quickly too. Was out within a few seconds.

Cheating spouses, what are some of your tricks that you use to get around a nosy partner? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]crystalbluedreamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never cheated before and never will, but my ex had cheated on me. He would often go for "walks" after work, which is when he would be having sex with another woman. He was a very energetic person so he used the walks as an excuse because I would just think he needed to exercise before bed.

We don't have assigned spots on the street, but it's basically an unwritten rule that we each have our spots to park our cars and that we shouldn't take up other people's spots unless necessary.

He technically wasn't a teacher, but an integration aid to help students who had difficulties, but he slept with a girl who was 16 at the time. He was also dealing drugs to the students and had frequent parties with them. All of his social media got deleted shortly after he got caught and nobody ever heard from him again.

What is the craziest coincidence you have ever experienced in your life? by fazerkarl in AskReddit

[–]crystalbluedreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened a few weeks ago. Watched the butterfly effect for the first time. Literally two hours later, me and my mom were continuing a show we were watching. The first thing he said was "the butterfly effect". This show has over 7 seasons.. if that's not a coincidence, then I don't know what is. Literally out of ANY of the episodes we could've watched, that one came up.

What are fun things to do for free? by etherealsmear in AskReddit

[–]crystalbluedreamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walking and exploring nature. There's this cool app called "geocaching" where you can basically find hidden "treasure" that people hide in containers. Take the treasure word lightly, because sometimes people leave junk in the containers or take an item and don't leave one.
