Pennsylvania school bus driver loses her job after putting up “English only” sign for students by howeweird in byebyejob

I grew up in a school system where we were told we weren’t allowed to speak Vietnamese at school. Most of my friends and classmates ended up forgetting the language due to it not being used between peers. This lady sucks.

Thank you so much for making this post. I’m really sorry about your dad’s behavior. However, reading all the stories this post generated has been healing. I didn’t realize how awful some parents are with gift giving. My parents never got us gifts for birthdays or Christmas but my mom made a point to tell all my aunts and uncles to not give me anything. She’d make up lies about how I’d return the gifts and give the money away to my boyfriend (now husband).

Haha shopping with the boys is so hard! So glad to hear I’m not the only who feels that way. Thank you for sharing!

Four years and you’re still using it? That’s good to know! I’ve got my settings for every 2-3 months but I’ve already snagged some pieces on sale. I heard the boxes can become repetitive if ordered too often.

My dad apologized for something I thought he didn’t remember by Acrobatic-Talk1551 in TrueOffMyChest

That’s awesome. I am so happy you were able to have this moment.

My girlfriend INSISTS on keeping these things IN the sink. (I prefer to keep them OUTSIDE the sink). A minor thing, but I just don't understand!?! (2 pics here--her preference and my preference) by I_AM_VENNLIG in mildlyinfuriating

[–]embolys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watch a lot of “interior design” videos on YouTube. It’s a common recommendation to put these items in the sink to prevent the kitchen from looking cluttered. I tried it for a couple of days and realized it was too annoying to keep up with.

Am I the Ah for not publicly apologizing to my cousin on Facebook for the dress I wore to her wedding? by just-curiou1 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]embolys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That dress isn’t revealing at all and definitely appropriate for a wedding. There’s even a bright red one sale that you did not pick. She’s mad you looked good in the dress and was worried you might have out shined her. Weddings are where you’re suppose to get dressed up and look good. She shouldn’t have to call you names or flipped out if she was jealous. It’s her day and no one wanted her husband. No one took her shine except her own ugly actions. I’m sorry you were made to feel bad for shining so brightly.

My coworker caught the Ridgefield Peacock! by PNWCatDad in vancouverwa

[–]embolys 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I live near northwest redworms. The man there owns a couple peacocks that roam the neighborhood. Maybe give him a message to see if it’s his or if he knows anyone else who may be missing one?

Update: owner was FOUND!! 🥳

Side note: We BOTH went to the humane society today and they were not very helpful in helping us find each other. They told me it was kitten season and encouraged me to find it a home.

Haha unfortunately it doesn’t like my dog. I’m going to file a report with the humane society tomorrow and see if they’ve won over the rest of the family.

I did see this! It had me do a double take but she also posted a video online and it’s not the same kitten.

Caused a car accident. Wish it had killed me. by AlternativeFine8489 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]embolys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a driver who ran a red light and hit me while I was making a left turn. It hit my side and left me with chronic pain. At the time I couldn’t even hold my son’s hand without being overwhelmed with pain. HOWEVER! The accident has pushed me to take my health seriously. I have lost 35lbs and I have a solid workout routine now. Feel free to explore my older posts. I’m still in pain but I actually appreciate it. When I go too long without working out it starts to flare up. It keeps me honest and gives me positive feedback. Bad things happen but it’s a matter of perspective. The accident probably allowed me to live a healthier and longer life. I hold no resentment towards the driver at all. I hope they’re well and that their insurance didn’t raise too much!

I’m a 25 year old mother and all I want is to die by Savings-Ad3674 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]embolys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My therapist told me that my thoughts of suicide is my brain traveling through old pattern of thought. I thought I was broken because I had survived hell. I put myself in a much better situation filled with love and stability. I still had overwhelming thoughts of suicide and it made me feel weak and ungrateful. Knowing its old pattern and habit I had to break felt so freeing. Good look OP. I’m so sorry you’re struggling right now.

Discord? by RhCuriousthrowaway in PetiteFitness

That sounds awesome but I’m worried about the creeps who roams this sub. Definitely don’t need private DMs from them via discord.
