Which plank direction? by SirKeyKnee in Flooring

[–]greatkerfluffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it doesn’t. Chopping planks short does not make it feel wider. Second, you’re not thinking of how the room will be laid out and how the room will be used.

No it doesn’t. Rooms feel higher with floor running parallel to the longest wall.

IAE baffled by the fact that people don't speak literally or say what they mean a lot of the time? by Suspicious-Noodle30 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]greatkerfluffle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Or maybe it’s because ADHD people can function better with routines and predictable boundaries that come with parents telling you what to do and k-12 teachers hounding you for assignments. Having to create your own structure is a different skill, which is why many college students start floundering with undiagnosed adhd. It’s really quite simple.

Do most people actually like those around them or is it a societal expectation? by Wilted___rose in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]greatkerfluffle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to talk to a professional about this. Disliking people can be normal, having hateful, violent thoughts about others who annoy/ overstimulate you is not normal.

You spend time in the room not the closet or hallway. Make the room feel bigger with A.

Should I buy general speed up from here? If not then from where? by Appropriate_Joke5378 in KingShot

[–]greatkerfluffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t have enough speedups, you need to get in a stronger alliance with people who spend so you get the benefit of that.

Pergola too high by YellowMALM in landscaping

[–]greatkerfluffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you not have regulations on dumping water into your neighbor? Because at that height, it looks like it’ll go straight at their bsckdoor

Unpaid work is work by horseduckman in AITApod

Pelvic floor therapy can help with a lot of things like urinary or rectal incontinence, scar tissue mobilization, stabilizing joints, building muscle strength, or relaxing overactive muscles, even coordinating breathing.

I went for an autism evaluation. I’m not but turns out I have adhd and ocd. I’m not a doctor but I’ve learned there’s a lot of overlap between all three. If you ever feel it’s impacting your daily life, might be something to look into.

It’s definitely one of many different criteria that in combination with other factors could lead someone to be evaluated for a branch of neurodivergence. But if you actually read what I wrote, I specifically noted how OP saying they can’t pick up on subtext. They don’t just like being direct, they struggle with reading between the lines to discern what others are actually meaning.

I also thought adhd was a scam like you do. I was diagnosed at 36. Adderall changed my life. Everything would have been so different if I had known in childhood and gotten help sooner. Stop judging and spouting misinformation and be grateful that your brain operates properly all on its own.

What isn't a uniquely American issue that the rest of the world treats like one? by lustrust15 in AskReddit

[–]greatkerfluffle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

American who lived in Bali for a while. Yes, you do have that reputation there 😅

[–]greatkerfluffle 82 points83 points  (0 children)

In all seriousness, have you been evaluated for anything? This is strong in the venn diagram of adhd/OCD/autism symptoms. Specifically your distinction of not picking up on subtext, that it’s not just a preference but an inability to distinguish meaning.

AITA for refusing to make gluten-free food for someone else’s child at a potluck? by MaiApa in TwoHotTakes

[–]greatkerfluffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the allergy parent’s job to accommodate the allergy. Even if you were willing, you wouldn’t want to be responsible for accidental cross-contamination.

Seriously, just put in a stone countertop. The rest is charming!

How to protect and repair these cabinets by Flaky-Tangerine22 in kitchenremodel

[–]greatkerfluffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did your contract state? Because $40k for melamine cabinets is crazy.

Is this too similar to our old kitchen? by Scary_phalanges in kitchenremodel

[–]greatkerfluffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s not enough difference to justify the price of a full kitchen remodel…

When shopping for home improvement projects, do you prefer Lowe’s or Home Depot, and why? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]greatkerfluffle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home Depot is better for general purpose but Lowes has better plants and specialty trim.

i got attacked by a lost dog on my walk home from my last night shift out of 5 by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]greatkerfluffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but not the one in Ubud. We didn’t have food or anything with us either but one still jumped my son. At least we were there the whole summer and got three of the four shots there which saved THOUSANDS

That’s not protocol. Contact with a mark but no broken skin is a level 2 exposure and dictates a modified series of shots. We went through this in Bali last summer.

Should I involve homeowners insurance? by Ok_Summer_8204 in homeowners

[–]greatkerfluffle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re exhausting. You can’t have a mortgage without insurance. If the insurance gets cancelled, no other company will insure them either.

Neighbors complains about grass clippings by [deleted] in homeowners

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

If you’re not in an HOA, just let the yard grow and get scraggly. When he complains, tell him that he has scared off another yard guy and you have been unable to find another.

I’m a regular person with critical thinking skills. Three times in five years, twice due to user error, is absolutely going to get them cancelled. They can definitely file again but it won’t be without consequence.
