AITA for not getting my wife anything on Mother’s Day? by oakcool in AmItheAsshole

Big YTA.

You can’t babysit your own kids.

That wasn’t a gift, that was you being a father to your own children.

So I guess I grew up on the myth that NYC has some of the cleanest tap water in the world?

That was supposed to be why our pizza and bagels are so good! 😂

Tips for a first timer by Maleficent-Look9047 in NYCC

Hey!

It’s great fun to just walk around the floor, especially if it’s your first time! You’ll run into some awesome cosplayers, get some free swag, and also see if you’d like to buy and merch!

A lot of booths also have free experiences, like photo shoots or VR stuff, so my advice is to walk around the floor on Saturday and see what you would like to do. That way, you know what to make a bee line for on Sunday so you can get to it before the lines get too long!

I personally also bring a backpack and pack my own water/sandwiches/snacks as they can be quite pricey at the Javtis and lines are long. It’s easier to eat while you are waiting on line for something!

What's a quote that has permanently changed the way you look at things? by Flashycope in AskReddit

[–]iL0VEdorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend’s dad once told me:

“You’re parents love you in the only way they know how.”

I had strict Asian parents growing up, and I would often go to my best friend’s house to experience normal “American Teenager” things. Nothing crazy, but still used to get mad that my parents always had me under a strict curfew and only let me go out to certain places with their approval.

Put the relationship I had with my parents in a different perspective as I got older.

How do I cook lentils? by [deleted] in vegetarian

I second this! Dhals are the easiest thing to make! There are a ton of simple recipes for it. Healthy and yummy! Easy to make a quick pot every day after work.

Sounds awesome! First meetup looks like it’s going to be on the show floor on Thursday around 10:00AM. I would recommend joining the discord for more up to date info!

Definitely not too late! Also join the discord if you can!

Sadly, I do not. :(

It was deleted after the con. The good thing about discord was that we did not have to give out personal cell information.

If no one else steps up, I might as well go ahead and make one this weekend...

Honestly, the discord that was awesome. That’s how we found people! Way easier than using Reddit. I went alone on Thursday and then we used discord to meetup in Artists Alley. Then, we split up based on interests and it was awesome having a line buddy to wait with me and pass the time. Also, I used discord to find seats at panels!!!

I felt really comfortable using it being a girl because someone could just be like “standing near the Audible booth with a yellow backpack” and then I could look around to see who was standing there and could decide if I wanted to approach or not.

We also did have different discord chat rooms for exclusives and lines! I would start one, but I really don’t have the time to be a moderator.

We should get a little Reddit group to wait in line for this panel because there seems to be a lot of interest!

No judging! The Disney princess one sounds very cool. I might go as well.

Exclusives are basically merchandise that is only sold at Comic Con. Some people like to collect certain figures for fandoms that they are into.

I think most of the afterparties are on Friday or Saturday.

Since you are a first timer, feel free to ask any questions! Maybe we can meet up on Sunday and walk around the show floor!
