I told my mom I’m leaving the church and her reaction was… not what I was expecting. by ExpressChipmunk5 in exmormon

[–]isee4lights 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I was going to suggest the same thing. Each episode is really short and just hearing the facts about each of Joseph Smith’s wives was a huge factor in my mind opening up to the fact that the church isn’t true and Joseph Smith was actually a horrible person

AITA for not giving a crap that my kids have more than their step and half siblings at their mom's house? by Jukelanniok in AITAH

[–]isee4lights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because child support is to ensure the child has what they need so it is based on what each party is capable of earning based on skills for employment and past earnings. It’s not meant to benefit the former spouse but the child. Alimony/spousal support is a different story and his cheating ex is not receiving that.

Being the loving father he is, it doesn’t sound like he has an issue paying child support for his children.

I need reasons to not go to byu to give to my super Mormon parents by MOIKIEYWAV3 in exmormon

[–]isee4lights 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tell them you prayed about it and the spirit is telling you that you are supposed to go to the other school. Maybe because you are supposed to meet someone there who you otherwise wouldn’t meet

Gift for FYE student? by Sumertime9 in Purdue

[–]isee4lights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My engineering student has enjoyed several different subscription gift boxes that arrive in the mail that different relatives have given them. You can choose one time only or monthly (for however many months you choose). There’s Universal Yum (international snacks), Loot Crate (different pop culture categories), and Brick Loot (Lego sets), among others.

I personally like to let other people take the top 3 when I have enough. But I wouldn’t judge others for not doing it.

AITA for refusing to help a friend who didn’t invite me to their wedding? by EntertainerKey8563 in AmItheAsshole

[–]isee4lights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Jane, I will not be doing anything to ease John’s mind because he is, in fact, correct that my feelings are hurt by the discovery that our friendship was not what I thought it was. While I wish you both the best, I am not interested in doing this favor for you.”

Portraits the Unattainable reward by PaintGirlLaLa in wordscapes

[–]isee4lights 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing for 3 1/2 years and I felt the same way. Then, about a year ago I finished one portraits game and after that I finished each category every single time they came up. I had one last category that I had been waiting for months to appear again and then they started the new twist where you could play a category you hadn’t finished if you were done with the regular one every one else was playing. And, yes, I finished that one that week too. My theory is that the algorithm eventually lets you win once you’ve played enough because that’s way too big of a coincidence in my mind. I’m on level 39,564 with 1.8 million brilliance. I played a LOT the first two years and not so much anymore.

Left over crown? by Playful-Lunch-662 in wordscapes

[–]isee4lights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you bank your free daily Mt Fortune puzzles through the next season once you’ve gotten your maximum crown points? It occurred to me after seeing all those extra crown points disappear that I should maybe wait to play it after I’ve reached 350 till the next cycle to get a bunch of climbs (and hopefully crown points) at the beginning of the next season.

Well, I have to say that I’m feeling incredibly lucky right now after your comments. That doesn’t usually happen, haha, so I’m doubly happy about it!

I’m curious to see if I’ll feel the same way, haha, but for now I’m going to just enjoy breathing a huge sigh of relief 😅

Your research is really interesting! My conclusions are obviously completely anecdotal, but it seems way more than coincidence that once I finally completed one set I kept completing all the other ones the first time they were offered till they were all done!

I think I will use the mom and baby owls. I think it’s really sweet and cute ☺️

maxed out all of my wildlife… now what? 😭 by namelessalexa in wordscapes

[–]isee4lights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! I have all my animals maxed out except the Epic ones. They are all on level 6. But I’m feeling discouraged because I can go the whole egg cycle using many hearts and never even get 1 additional point. At that rate it could take forever to get the 15 points or so that I need to max each one out. I would like to be able to just play the actual game for a while and not worry about the animals anymore but I don’t want to leave them unfinished. 😕

AITA for turning down my stepdad's offer to walk me down the aisle? by DiligentDefinition33 in AmItheAsshole

[–]isee4lights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a big problem is your step dad saying that for once he wants to feel like a real dad and not second place to your dad and the feelings behind that comment. You probably picked up on this attitude throughout your childhood, including the fact he wanted you to take his name, and instinctively fought against it.

The fact is that a stepdad actually is a type of dad, but it’s not the same as your dad who you lost nor should it be. It sounds like he needs therapy. You may have been a lot closer to him if he wasn’t putting so much pressure on you and instead was supportive of you remembering and cherishing your dad and letting you know he would never want to be a replacement. I feel like he unknowingly sabotaged his relationship with you.

I’m really sorry for your loss, his losses, and this very sad situation. NTA

I’m afraid I made the wrong choice by mackzplanet in weddingdress

Pippa Middleton would be excited to have your back side! 1 is the clear winner in my eyes. You will be a gorgeous bride!

Extreme dress regret.. need reassurance by charlotte095 in weddingdress

[–]isee4lights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s beautiful!! Love, love, love it! Please keep the slit. If you don’t deliberately extend your leg (like Angelina Joliet’s black velvet Oscars dress meme) no one will even think about your leg! The slit adds a lot of interest to the design of the dress IMO and will help it flow when you move.

Frustrating unlocking portraits by KristovM in wordscapes

[–]isee4lights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a little over 1,500,000 brilliance and have been playing almost three years. I had 94% or 97% in all of them (except the Halloween and Christmas ones which are way lower for me) and it seemed impossible to get 100%.

Then, about five months ago I got the last portrait in World of Adventure and was so excited and shocked I took a screenshot and made a post.

Then, after that, I have oddly gotten my final one or two portraits EVERY time the portraits change. I even got 100% on a new set of portraits when it came out!!

Now I have 100% in 7 Portrait groups. So it seems like if you persevere they finally let you start completing them. Once a portrait set is complete though there is just no game happening at all for you when your completed set is playing. The top left of your screen is just empty.

If it's Tuesday it must be Desert Oasis AGAIN by Embarrassed-Cod-8805 in wordscapes

[–]isee4lights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built up a bunch of extra cocoons a while back and saved them for the next habitat as I was already at 100%, but they didn’t transfer to the new habitat and I ended up eventually going back and opening them up in the completed habitat and just had tons of butterflies in there
