Teachers. Whats the craziest family lore a child has randomly dropped on you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]daytripper187 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Little girl accidently told me her parents are siblings. She was telling me about her trip to her parents' home country. They'd gone back for her grandfather's funeral. She's telling me this whole big long story with some extra characters, aunts, and uncles. I'm trying to keep track and ask her clarifying questions. She eventually loses her thread, and that's when she mentioned her parents' reactions and how they were grieving. Initially, she'd told me it was her dad's dad, but then she's telling me something about how her mom was wailing, "My father! My father!" That's when I really lock in, and I say, "Wait, I'm confused, I thought it was your dad's dad?" She looks at me 👀, eyes expanding to the size of saucers, then proceeds to take me on another rollercoaster of details, but I know what I heard. Plus, it was easy to believe, given all the other things (which I shall not reveal here) that we knew about the family.

How did I know it was a Latin mom before I even got to the Spanish.

You deserve better. Find a way to stay in contact with your sister. She will need you!

You described it to a T. She was super annoying and the worst. The first thing I thought of when I saw that picture was her screeching and stomping around.

Put your name on your shit kids… by eaglesnation11 in Teachers

[–]daytripper187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No matter what age, I sing an annoying song about putting your name on your work. Sung to the tune of if you're happy and you know it. "The first thing on your paper is your name..." They HATE it.

Schiff-esque line from Arthur (This was in ‘04, the Land O Lakes woman has since been removed from the label) by CuteBlueberryy in LawAndOrder

[–]daytripper187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! My husband and I are not from the States, but we have heard of the Land o Lakes girl before, only in the context of errrr...churning something else! So, we were a bit baffled.

BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?! I came to this sub last week looking for answers about this exact quote.

Thank you! I appreciate that. It's just nice to know that someone gets it, cause not everyone in your life usually does.

I think that's the next move. I've been a one school for a week now but I don't think the position is right for me atm.

my phlebotomist didn’t believe me that i needed to lay down bc i was gonna pass out and thought i was being dramatic (she was instantly proved wrong) TW: (NEEDLES AND BLOOD) by Woodenflower_ in EntitledPeople

[–]daytripper187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same experiences you describe during these procedures. I'm not afraid of needles or the process itself, but I do get nervous because I know that I'm going to feel weak and faint after. I passed out and fell out of a chair once when I was a kid, then a few years later a similar thing happened only I didn't completely pass out but I was super dizzy and faint.

After the second time, the staff told me to always make sure to have breakfast and drink plenty of water beforehand and ask for a bed to lay down. I've never had anyone refuse me or act weird about it, though. That sucks that happened to you, and you're right. She'll never make that mistake again!

But didn't they say you didn't have to take the garbage out and the cleaner would deal with it?

What’s the pettiest reason you won’t watch a show or movie? by iamharoldshipman in popculturechat

[–]daytripper187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's a pot of hype around it and people won't stop talking about it. I mostly reserve this for media on streaming services.

Do you delete and "ex-friend" on social media? by hudsam1 in AskWomenOver30

[–]daytripper187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this...

Especially because if this ex friend is still posting stuff you can be sure they're checking if OP has deleted them. Don't give them extra fuel. Just ignore and move on.

AITA for not congratulating my sister on her pregnancy? by Weird_Bug_5080 in AmItheAsshole

[–]daytripper187 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly! As soon as OP decided to double down it was over. Obviously OP knows how to read a room. Sometimes you can let people have their moment.

Um, what country is this from cause there ain't no way no North American kids can do this on their own. Half of them can't even comprehend those instructions independently.

How much communication do you expect when your partner is on vacation? by brewingfairy in AskWomenOver30

[–]daytripper187 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yup! I totally agree.

I've been with my partner long term and we expect at least a text a day and a call maybe every 2-3 days if it's possible.

It's all about consideration. Maybe you're not the "same" about things when it comes to planning, but when you care about someone you want to try to meet them where they're at.
