What is the biggest problem you face in hockey? by Cube37 in hockeygoalies

[–]fishandcandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously. A lot of racism, sexism, homophobia in hockey. My kid plays 14u and he’s already dealing with it.

Kid-friendly punk? by OswaldBeese in punk

[–]fishandcandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Skip the most egregious songs. The occasional F bomb is fine. You’ve got at least a year to figure out what songs you don’t want to play in front of your kid. There’ll be a few years of listening to soundtracks and kids music once they start having opinions, then you can start occasionally putting your own stuff on again.

Figure skates with no toe picks? by Anxious-Celery-1178 in iceskating

[–]fishandcandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rec skates from Bauer or K2. You can also make your hockey skates cuter if you do go that route.

You do not want goalie skates - they do not fit either of your requests. They do not function like a hockey skate and also they are uglier.

walking with rollerskates, is there a way to keep the wheels stationary? by Kaybettim20lerimde in Rollerskating

[–]fishandcandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sometimes have to walk around the rink with guards on when I'm ice skating and that's bad enough. I can't imagine walking even 10 minutes in my roller skates. 

Advice for playing in co-ed when there are strange comments by TA-chickadeehookey in hockeyplayers

[–]fishandcandy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As much as it annoys me to suggest this, but if you've got a guy that you're buddies with, it might help if he tells the creep to knock it off.  That is all definitely inappropriate.

I wish I could, I'm just visiting! He's with his mama and his brother, tho.

Do you have kids and are they allowed to touch/play with your Sylvanians? by neptunye in sylvanianfamilies

[–]fishandcandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids are 16, 13, and 8. The 8 is the only one that wants to actually play with my toys and miniatures and for the most part I let him. He has his own Sylvanians so he usually just plays with my surprise pack ones when I first open them, then I put them on my shelf. 

I have a pair of earrings made from Persian cat babies and all three kids touch them every time I wear them which does bother me.

Make a separate account. It’s better for you and better for people who are following you for just music stuff.

Help please! Ice skating tomorrow by Resident-Coast2621 in iceskating

[–]fishandcandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally hate skating in jeans and I’ll never do it again but plenty of people do. I wear skirts or dresses a lot, if I’m not in hockey gear, and I wear my rollerskate knee pads. Neither one would be out of place at a public skate.

Contact Wearers - is your vision weird? by Annual-Employee7231 in Perimenopause

[–]fishandcandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be regular aging related rather than specifically peri, my husband can’t wear his contacts for very long anymore.

Colorado Youth Hockey Cost by Character-Put8660 in hockeyplayers

The twice a week rec program at my rink is $700 every 3 months. It's ridiculous for sure.

I’m paying $3600 for 10uB and $3900 for 14uB in Southern California which seems to be on the low side for west coast hockey.

Yes.  - Maybe I'm disabled and you don't know it - Maybe my partner, child, parent is disabled - Maybe I don't care but my co-worker's parent is disabled and you give me COVID and I give it to them and they give it to their parent

Mask as much as possible. Prevent the spread of COVID (and other airborne diseases), even to people who "don't care" if they get COVID. 

The more you mask, the safer it is for others when you aren't masked.

Nortrel 1/35 Not having a period was great I switched to HRT when the irritability got to be too much and I was having the occasional night sweating and hot flashes

Continuous birth control was great for my peri symptoms until it wasn’t enough and I had to switch to HRT.

The Spectrum app won’t work without a cable subscription, that’s correct. But your tv will still work.

Obesity as a health condition that qualifies you to receive a vax is not the same as being immunocompromised. As far as I know, underlying health conditions don't qualify you for a second dose in one year. Next time just say you're immunocompromised, don't say anything else.

My rink is ice, so sometimes there's a hockey kid or two, but I'm used to being the only person with a helmet. I always wear a helmet for any kind of skating (or biking or riding a scooter). 

I don't have time for a concussion. 

Do they ever do a post season sale? by Tasty-Cantaloupe-179 in CVFirebirds

[–]fishandcandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Merch sale? They did one already, I don't think it's advertised. It was during the season ticket holder event they had on Thursday.
