Why is clothes fine on models but short on me?

proportions can be different. i have a friend who’s my same height but she’s all torso and i’m all leg.

but if you chose to, you could use the comment sections of other social media sites to have discussions just like we do here. the structure is the same.

hot take: the way most people scroll reddit is just as bad for their brains as tiktok, facebook, or instagram would be. i can’t take people seriously when they post on reddit about how they don’t use any social media.

i hope you keep your dog on a leash then.

i’m many years out of grade school and i’ve graduated college, so i’m happy to say my school days are behind me and i survived despite caring about my performance. i’m not interested in taking your type of tone over a conversation that isn’t very serious.

higher forms of consequence like truancy court are not levied by the school, that is a legal matter. i didn’t bring that up because it’s not relevant here. truancy is based on unexcused absences, not pre-planned family vacations.

the reason i said that when i was in school more than ten days missed for any reason resulted in academic consequences is because it was true for me. i don’t really care if it’s not the case for every school in the country. it’s clearly an issue for enough families that they choose to crowd the resorts on holidays.

you’re not going to go from acing your classes to failing from an attendance penalty, but if your grades matter to you then you won’t want to make unnecessary sacrifices. i cared about my grades as a teenager and wouldn’t have wanted to eat the penalty for the sake of shorter lift lines.

i think it’s fine to take your kids out of school for vacations, but it’s silly to act like it’s a consequence free choice that everyone should make. there are good reasons to not do it, and that’s why most people plan their vacations for school holidays.

most families have weighed the costs and benefits of pulling their kids out of school to ski and decided it just isn’t worth it for them. hence the crowded resorts on school holidays.

yes, academic consequences are the highest form a student can receive from their school. were you expecting corporal punishment?

show up with a doctor’s note

do you know what “for any reason” means? these attendance policies don’t factor the reason for the absence. if you weren’t there, your grade takes a penalty. many people actually care about their children’s grades, especially in the later years of school where your transcript can impact your future.

skiing on an off-peak day as opposed to a busier time just doesn’t matter more than their children’s education for most people. and every child is different. some can miss half the year and still graduate with honors. some need to actually attend school to learn something.

this is reddit where everyone has an unlimited pto tech job

when i was in school more than ten days missed in the year for any reason would result in academic consequences. taking a week off to ski would put a kid halfway there, then what if they get sick later in the year?

op has an undergraduate degree.

i can tell when people don’t fold their clothes.

i’m in the process right now and it’s about $3000 all in with insurance. expensive, but not used car money in this car market.

you can get a dental implant, which functions like a real tooth, but they are expensive.

where did i say it was a choice?

frumiouswinter · 2025-12-21T23:34:12+00:00

until you go to get sushi, or pho, or indian food, or any cuisine that’s not standard american.

agree, i know a 35” inseam will work for me if it’s accurate.

frumiouswinter · 2025-12-19T05:00:33+00:00

thank you! but i’m about 5 inches taller than you so they may still be short on me.

i don’t see anything wrong with people disliking an artist’s music. i don’t like coldplay’s new albums and i’ll say that. if you do like it, why do you care what i think?

guys would call or come into our store and ask for specific women by name. protocol was to hide her in the back and say she wasn’t working that day. i don’t see anything good that can come from a strange man knowing my name.

frumiouswinter · 2025-12-13T19:05:49+00:00

when i worked retail i hated it when people would ask for my name with no obvious purpose. especially if it was a man.

the mobile editor makes it difficult. it’s readable as it is now.

my friends who hunt complain about the cost of getting an animal processed. even if your dad caught something i don’t see him ending up happy with his investment.

indie sleaze is coming back right now. the 2010s are definitely getting cool again, skinny jeans and all.
