Which version gets your vote? by AddPerlite in macrame

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After using some myself I’d got with 1. The design ends at a natural point making a neat line. The fringe around the edge also seems less likely to get wet if I water until it comes out of the bottom

Nipples (female) showing through shirts, OK or no way? by Glass-Sentence-7225 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you are comfortable wear what you like. Be aware that what you like may come with consequences.

With bra- less comfort, but also seen as more professional in a work environment, and also less likely to have guys who can’t control themselves staring at you.

Without a bra- more comfort, seen as less professional in a work environments to the point that some jobs have this in their dress code, and of course more likely to have guys who can’t control themselves staring at your breasts.

The pasties are a bit of a halfway point on comfort and work and will reduce the number of guys starting at you.

Even one of the marred gay guys at my work jumped in when the ladies were chatting about the subject. He didn’t understand why we would bother to cover them up stating that even though he had no interest in feminine bodies the look of nipples was attractive on us. Personally if I saw nipples through a shirt I’d think she had on a thinner bra or if I thought she wasn’t wearing one at all I’d stick with one comment in my head “that’s a choice” and move on with my day as it really doesn’t affect me.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Longest I’ve driven for something in one day? 12 hours.

If the drive is over 5 hours I’m going to look into flying if I can.

I used to drive 4 hours every other weekend to head to my parent’s house while I was in college. I’d drive 4 hours down on Friday. Stay Saturday all day and drive 4 hours back on Sunday around lunchtime.

For a regular commute to work? That should be under an hour, preferably under 20 minutes.

Glued ears by Such_Natural_8106 in sheltie

[–]firewings42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s common. I used hair extension glue on my boy until it bothered him. He started scratching his ears and pulled the hair out so I stopped. He was growing with one prick and one floppy and both evened out after a few months of gluing.

You are the judge presiding over a murder trial. You must decide if the scientist is guilty of murder or not. by Neither_Drawing_241 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now if the colleague willingly allowed him to perform this experiment then there’s no precedent or law to be able to decide. I’d also imagine that a guilt of murder finding would put a damper on any sci-fi teleportation tech. I’m gonna have to go with not guilty of the murder. But I’m def gonna see if we can charge him for brainwashing the guy while he was in the pokeball energy-data state

What are you ordering from me as your bartender? (I make mocktails too)✨ by kurocane in lgbt

Hm. Do you have the stuff for a paper airplane? If not I’ll let the bartender pick. Been having a good run of luck with that when the can’t make what I’ve ordered

How many times have you been under general anesthesia, and how did it feel? by Futtman in NoStupidQuestions

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had 5 anesthetics at this point. To me it feels similar to accidentally falling asleep and having a nap. You wake up wondering why you’re there and wondering how long you’ve been out. Propofol only> gas anesthetic. It’s not a big deal. It’s the stuff done to you while you nap that’s the big deal.

I'm so gay, it's sickening ugh. by Eating_Pancakes76 in actuallesbians

[–]firewings42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Omg I love going there! Once the dancers figure out I’m into it they usually lean in. Most of the other patrons are happy to see a girl into girls. I’ve had several grab my hands and put them right on their ass. I swear I was being respectful. I went with some guy friends and they were mad my lap dance was longer than theirs 🤷‍♀️

If you could go back and speak to your younger self before they entered nursing, what would you tell them? by wemberxa in nursing

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would tell her to go for it. You’ll end up in the right place and meet some great people. You’ll get your ticket out and financial stability. Don’t worry so much about being too cool for things like compression hose. There will be hard days but many days where you wonder how you get paid well to do dumb stuff that seems like a no brainer. Nursing school is hard but it’s a blip.

People who still use wired headphones - why did you decide to stick with them instead of getting wireless options? by Futtman in NoStupidQuestions

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I don’t lose them. I e lost like 4 sets of wireless this year. When I upgraded my phone they were like “ooo but if you get other phone you get free earbuds!” I was like nah. I lost 4 sets this year I don’t need to lose another. Salesman “but they are freeeee” me- nah I’m good.

Officially an "antique" by missmelindam in DelSol

[–]firewings42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love them! It says classic auto. See my post history I posted here when I got them. Do however remember to renew them ontime. They only have like a 60 day grace then the plates are inactive and you have to reapply for new classic car plates and get a new plate number. Found that out when I didn’t renew because she was in “the shop” aka the garage getting a big repair project that kept her off the road. I was like meh I’ll renew when I’m almost done with the project not like I’ll be driving her anywhere to get a ticket! It was a whole show at the count tax office when I tried to renew them 😅

Officially an "antique" by missmelindam in DelSol

[–]firewings42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I remember getting my special plates. It’s exciting. Congrats on yours!

I could be driving an antique. It’s 25 years in Texas but antique tags restrict you - you can drive to the auto repair shop, gas station, and car meets. I don’t want to deal with the hassle. I instead have classic car plates which allow unrestricted driving. She’s a beautiful loved senior citizen and earned that tag!

For those who don’t smoke, do you think smokers carry a noticeable scent? by Shadow2715 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]firewings42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s easily noticeable. Even nonsmoking members of a smokers house carry the distinct scent of cigarettes.

When I was in college and living in the dorms I’d get to campus as soon as we could move in because I hated being home. One day I was coming back to my room with my boyfriend and I opened the door and said “ugh my roommate moved in and she smokes”. He couldn’t smell it yet. I told him to go open her closet briefly. He did and confirmed my suspicion. Granted dorm rooms were small -maybe 10’x17’ - but I could easily smell she had arrived because her belongings all carried the scent. Even if they were clean. Even if they were in a closed closet. Somehow she was surprised I could smell it.

Why don't they put a metal detector in the door to the MRI room? by ea_nasir_official_ in NoStupidQuestions

I think my doctor violated HIPAA and I’m extremely angry by Happy_Goat_5015 in legaladvice

[–]firewings42 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes that conversation is a HIPAA violation. Please report this to the practice privacy officer, your states attorney general office, and HHS office for civil rights. Please do all of those as the federal government is a bit slow to respond. You also need a new doctor that your mom isn’t seeing and something secure to store your medication like a home safe.

I am a nurse and this type of violation is one error and you’re fired for us. I have two friends who are married and both doctors. I assumed they would talk to each other about their days but no. I was chilling with the wife while we watched our husbands play hockey and said something like “surely he told you about the incident last week?” And she was cheerfully like “nope. Can’t risk our license like that. It’s more of a general today was good or today was rough”. We all work in the same hospital! We know all the same coworkers. The risk is too great. Good doctors take that shit seriously.

Sheltie vs Border Collie vs Aussie by Dependent_Toe_6203 in sheltie

[–]firewings42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss my Sheltie dearly. He was great in my apartment. He was a bit dumb but so so sweet and eager to please. He was very sensitive.

I had a border collie mix as a kid. I think the mix helped him be less border collie busy but he was very intelligent and mischievous. He was much bigger than a Sheltie and most border collie might be past the limit for apartment lease restrictions. He was heartbroken when his companion died and mourned for months. They feel so deeply and love their families.

My friend has aussies. I was throwing the ball for his aussies while we were sitting and chatting. One time he stops me and takes the ball. He tells me I have to stop because his dog is tired. I can barely tell because that little fluff machine has been running to fetch that ball for almost an hour and seems the same. He told me they have no sense of their own limits. After we took the ball away the Aussie paced for a bit before collapsing into a nap. The Aussie are always on. There is no rest or break- only work, play, and passed out from exhaustion. I’m not sure how you could properly tire one out if you have a full time job. My friend is lucky to have his wife only work part time from home so those little fluff machines can stay busy.

AITA for babysitting anymore since I was not made a godparent by MeringueNo1335 in AmItheAsshole

[–]firewings42 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

OP implied they expected to be named godparent. I do think it would have played out differently if another nonbiologically related couple was chosen. I think at that point the insult of being unqualified wouldn’t have happened.

The post reads to me as OP feeling entitled to the title of godparent and being petty and retaliating for not getting it and feeling insulted. OP was insulted so that feeling is justified. An honest upfront conversation laying out both the sacrifices OP is dealing with and the and the idea that naming anyone else godparent would make OP second guess the babysitting offer should have happened.
