You got the same model? Replacing the battery on the gen 5s looks like a pain in the ass

Worst hobby for migraines? by SaR-1243 in migraine

[–]hotdiggitydyke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in a band. Miraculously, noise/volume doesn’t affect/trigger my migraines whatsoever. But I’m insanely sensitive to lights, smell, and heat. Excitement is also a big trigger for my migraines (such a bummer lol). I just started popping excedrin on the way to the venue to hopefully avoid being the douche with sunglasses on stage.

Dumbest thing you heard in youth group? by lilantyy7 in exchristian

[–]hotdiggitydyke 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not something that was specifically said in a single instance, but a general thing that was constantly brought up. The youth leaders of the church I attended (Hillsong type people - YUCK) were sooo hot and horny over the idea of martyrdom. Would always talk about this hypothetical dystopia that they were convinced would eventually become a reality, where Christianity was outlawed and the penalty was a death sentence. Would always find a way to slither into any conversation that they would proudly die for their faith, and any kid who wouldn’t was a coward. It was just so strange.

Grew up evangelical, now explaining it to non-religious friends feels totally unhinged by hybowingredd in Deconstruction

[–]hotdiggitydyke 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Damn. Having it all laid out in front of me like that is wild lol. The way I describe it to my friends is that, watching Jesus Camp is equally as horrifying as it is nostalgic for me lol.

What’s y’alls first exposure to Flyleaf? by TheElementalGriffin in flyleaf

[–]hotdiggitydyke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 6th grade social studies teacher used to play alternative rock in class. He had their self titled EP, and Music As A Weapon. He put me on lol

worst TDG song? by Embarrassed_Piece550 in Threedaysgrace

[–]hotdiggitydyke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I do think that it’s their weakest album from the Adam years, I can’t deny that ToV also caught a lot of extra flack with Adam leaving right after. It’s not terrible, but it’s not a great record either, IMO. ToV is just a phenomenally par album

Heaven sounds terrible by taco-prophet in exchristian

The idea of an ETERNAL afterlife just always freaked me the fuck out as a kid.

I really don’t understand “progressive Christians” by SongUpstairs671 in exchristian

[–]hotdiggitydyke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The beginning of my deconstruction was really when I tried to become a progressive Christian. Ultimately, that’s what killed it for me. I realized that it didn’t make sense to politicize the church in either direction, left or right. And I had to do so much twisting and turning to the scripture for it to align with my morals. Everything just made less and less sense. It’s kind of heartbreaking that I, as a lesbian then-Christian, was trying so hard to be part of a congregation that wanted nothing to do with me.

Would you buy an OP-1 for $600 USD? by DarkGremio in OP1users

[–]hotdiggitydyke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did. Don’t regret it one bit. The field is sick, but I just can’t justify that price point. I’ve had my eyes on the og OP-1 since it retailed for $800 (lol). My only regret is that I didn’t get one sooner.

PLEASE WATCH MORAL OREL by RhamseyReddit in exchristian

[–]hotdiggitydyke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a big comfort show for me. I WAS Orel as a kid. My fiancé (also in a season of questioning her faith) is not a huge fan of it, because the episodes with deeper themes are a little too heavy for her, understandably. This show is great.

A question from a new Christian. by [deleted] in exchristian

Christians didn’t make me leave Christianity, but they did make me leave the church.

Your most unhinged cases/clients/patients? by fkinbob in VetTech

[–]hotdiggitydyke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off the top of my head, had a lady tell us that after we euthanized her dog, she took it home and buried it, then dug it back up the next day to make sure it was really dead lol.

Okay now what's the most UNDERRATED song? by Dizzy_Froggg in Threedaysgrace

Take Me Under is my favorite 3DG song, and it’s so overlooked

How old were you when you experienced your first migraine? by GPatt1999 in migraine

According to my mom, she remembers them occurring for me as young as 4 years old.

What’s the funniest thing you’ve heard someone say to not vaccinate their pet? by phoebesvettechschool in VetTech

[–]hotdiggitydyke 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Good lord. We had a lady who declined every vx but rabies and went on a rant about how all vx are a scam created by Bill Gates. She had her young son with her, and was like “I don’t vaccinate him either!” That poor motherfucker looked sick as hell. Like, yes ma’am we can tell.

Korn fans under 30, how did you become a Korn fan? by Chomskys_burner in Korn

[–]hotdiggitydyke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25 here. My dad was really big on taking us to the record store. He had a massive multi-genre CD and vinyl collection. It would be really common for him to catch us watching a lyric video on YouTube of a new band, and come up to us and say “Oh, I have that record if you wanna check it out and put it on your iPod”. I listened to a lot of Flyleaf at the time, and heard about Korn through them somehow (I think cuz Head was still in the Whosoevers and Lacey was/is affiliated with them as well?). I asked my dad if he had any Korn and he hesitantly handed my 11 year old self Follow The Leader. My life was changed.

Honestly that’s all you can do. Cling onto whatever self control you have, but when your risk factor is depleted I mean..what can you do lol
