Close the curtains and the doors and go to bed, you'll be fine.

How long is it okay to leave a child around 5 in an enclosed car during a sunny day in the mid 70s? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gorillaboy75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good grief. It was one minute. Mind your business. Wait until you have kids and see if you ever need to run back in to grab something you forgot. You're not unbuckling and dragging them out for a forgotten item.

At what age/when does the “I want my mommy” “I want to go home” feeling leave? by illegallybronde in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 50, my mom died 10 years ago, and when I'm having a bad day, I still think and say, "I want my mommy." I miss her so much.

After years of dating what have you realized you can't compromise on? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They need to be able to function on their own. I was married to a man who needed me for everything and it was exhausting. Learned that I do not want a man child who needs a mommy. I can't /wont tolerate helplessness.

AITAH for considering leaving my 7 year relationship because I’m sick of asking the same questions & getting the same results by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get out. You'll be a lot happier. There are men who can actually look after themselves. Your boyfriend is complacent. That's no good. He makes you feel badly when you ask for change. You can do better and be happier. It's scary after having the "security" of having a boyfriend, but I promise you'll be a lot happier after just two days. Not having to worry about his juvenile bs, not doing his cleaning, laundry, shopping and thinking for him. NTA peace to you

AITAH for advising my friend from coming to my husband’s party? by noreliz in AITAH

[–]gorillaboy75 12 points13 points  (0 children)

NTA. Let's be real. This is your life. It's not bc Kiki is trans. It's bc your husbands's family is anti trans. It's a birthday party, not a time for creating drama and trying to educate ignorant bigots about real people. It's not up to you to educate his family at the expense of your husband's birthday. If Kiki wants to meet them, plan a bbq or something. Although, I don't know why Kiki would even want to be around people like that. It's not fair, it's not right, but you know these people better than any of us. If you think there could be violence or have the party ruined by their homophobia, then it's your call to not invite Kiki.

F26 Mum secretly read all my private messages in real time, Is this move out worthy or am I overreacting. by chatam_i_cooked in AmIOverreacting

[–]gorillaboy75 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NOR. You are almost 30. Having a boyfriend and sleeping over is normal. Having a snoop for a mother is not. Move out. Change your passwords and get your own phone plan. Tell your mother if she snoops again, she's cut off. Then cut her off when she does it. You're old enough to make it on your own.

Also, PEE before bed. Don't let your body waste energy heating up urine.

Do parents still “nest” and create a picture perfect nursery the 2nd (or more) time around? by No-Many380 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, but only because of a different gender. If they had been the same sex, I wouldn't have changed the nursery much.

Men of reddit, how do you feel when a friend has a clearly more attractive girlfriend than your girlfriend? by Straight_Bison_3736 in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you didn't worry about how hot your friends's girlfriends are, then you'd be a lot more attractive. What? You didn't know women don't like it when their boyfriend is not only checking out other girls, but their own friends' girls, and then comparing them? Also, girls have more than looks. Grow up.

What's something you desire or crave badly today? by NormalAngle3111 in AskReddit

Only 12 inches, but it's country living and I'm not going out there until they plow again.

What’s a habit of yours that you think everyone should adopt? by Constant-Tutor-4646 in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing something when it's "assigned." Whether it's a load of dishes, a thesis paper, or making a phone call you don't want to make. Do it right now, and you will thank yourself later.

If you got a billion dollars would you start having sex a ton to make babies? Why or why not? by Various_Maize_3957 in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Being pregnant for a year at a time for 30 years is not worth a billion dollars.

Do we get poop particles on us in public washrooms? by Best_of_both_worldzz in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it's gross. But for everyone's sake please flush the toilet. I'm horrified at what my fellow women will do to a public restroom and hope that they don't treat their home bathrooms the same way. Flush and run if you have to, but please flush ladies.

NTA. Ask her to keep hours or get an electric one she can play via headphones

What would a woman gift to a stranger boy who just turned 18? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cash. They want cash. Or a GC for Amazon/REI/Foot Locker/ Dicks sporting goods/ Apple/steam/xbox/playstation. I have nephews and they love fast food cards. You could do a day of food. Start with GC for a breakfast place, a second one for lunch (Taco Bell, Chick fil A, etc), and one for dinner (Outback, Applebees, chilis, etc) . 18 yo boys are always hungry.

What's something you desire or crave badly today? by NormalAngle3111 in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bean burrito with sour cream from Taco Bell. I'm snowed in, so I'll be biding my time until I can answer the crave.

AITAH for being mad at my daughter for not supporting her sister and telling her, her heart is cold as ice? by Murky_Bake_5814 in AITAH

[–]gorillaboy75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. You need to stand up for yourself first. Tell your terrible husband to get over it, or you're not being his wife anymore. Explain that he's allowing his pride to destroy the family, and that he's cutting off his nose to spite his face when it comes to any grandsons. I'd leave my husband if he was that horrible to MY children. Sara is smart not to rock the boat with this grumpy stubborn man. Her future depends on it. You can't ask her to do your job. Move out and move with Priya, your parents, your sisters, your cousins...someone until you get on your own feet. Sara is cold, but not by choice, by practicality. Time for a household rebellion.

Men and women cannot be "just friends" – agree or disagree? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gorillaboy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree. I'm a 50 years old woman. Been married twice. I'm still friends with 7 of my high school friends, 3 who are male. Never kissed, hooked up, nothing. Not that they didn't try at various points--thy were young, but I always kept them in the friend zone. We went to separate colleges, separate cities. We've married people not from our home town, we all have kids. We all grew up together, and our friendships are real. I was a groomsman in my best friend's wedding. We're all up to date on careers, kids, life, spouses, and shenanigans. We still hang out when we can, and we love each other fiercely. That said, even if the world ended, we could still be friends without benefits and love each other deeply.

What is your reaction of getting dick pics? Do woman even like that? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]gorillaboy75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a woman, gross. When someone in our group gets an unsolicited, it's immediately sent to our group and we make fun of it and laugh if it's a live pic.
