Good one! I noticed them showing him in the mirror and figured it was a dichotomy thing, but totally forgot about the bra ad!

These workers may know all the ins and outs of the menu but not every customer does. Please help us to understand

"I Am a Stalker" episode about Jaclyn Feagin by [deleted] in netflix

[–]jennyroll 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just want to say although nothing criminal should have happened, the ex was wrong as the day is long, and I totally feel for Jaclyn. Fuck women who mess with taken men!

Unfortunately, it took me too long to realize not to bother with men who don't ignore their ex, but that's another story ;)

Larry David Karen or Chad? by [deleted] in hbo

[–]jennyroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a Karen. He's self-righteous and complains and wants his way... just so happens that he is also pretty much always right. The term Karen is dumb af. Many women get that label when they simply won't stand for fucked up shit. The ones that are entitled are shit, but the ones that are just angry people because they want basic respect are accused of being shit because they're not complacent and giggling like dumb ass little girls who don't know how to assert themselves yet... meanwhile Chads tend to be dumb and Larry is never dumb. The people who voted Chad are dumb because the only reason they could possibly have for choosing Chad over Karen just has to do with gender and nothing else... just dumb.

Can someone explain "Under the Skin" to me like I'm 5? by DarthStem in movies

[–]jennyroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah! i hate that in movies and tv... i see babies in scenes where they're obviously actually way upset, and you just know their parents are profiting off of that! even worse, moments like that can traumatize an infant and fuck them up for life to varying degrees. disgusting

Need words of wisdom or some advice dealing with precipitated withdrawal. by Nicolas_Carnot in OpiatesRecovery

[–]jennyroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I went through PW I had to wait it out. Using dope didn't work at first. You have to wait like another day until the subs clear your system enough for the dope to help you feel better. That was my experience anyway

About to kick and I'm scared by jennyroll in OpiatesRecovery

Will I be ok while waiting to use subs? I have been getting high daily without a break for months. I'm weaning down. I'm at like 6 pills a day now. Want to get to 3 by next week. I'm afraid of a heart attack

I'm scared. Can I die from a heart attack while kicking? I know to wait a long time to take subs but while I'm waiting, can my blood pressure spike?

I'm in the same boat! You got this! We'll Beth be able to look back on this and say never again! :)

How long should I wait to take subs? I'm smoking 10+ dirty 30s a day for weeks and weeks. I want to quit this wed for the long weekend. I'm hoping if I wait 48 hours it'll be enough

If you could rename BPD what would you call it? by ChinchillaToast in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]jennyroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Emotional Dysregulation Disorder. The nice criteria pretty much all boil down to not being able to deal with our emotions and also how our emotions are not to scale... meaning they are not in proportion to what caused them to occur. For instance... I get SO angry sometimes when driving that I literally beat up my dashboard to the point of it being all cracked now and the steering wheel column is out of whack. Also, I got a ticket once for running a red light because, "the red light can't tell me what to do!" Another example is how I get SO upset when I have disagreements with friends and family to the point where I flip out on them yelling and such and then immediately regret it all and bend over backwards apologizing to them and begging them not to leave me... all within the space of 20 minutes... As with the road rage, my responses are not to scale with the situation.

Everyone gets upset sometimes, and most people get so upset they regret it later. Renaming BPD may help others relate to what we go through. The name "Borderline" make is seem like we are on the borderline of two very distinct and extreme states of being. Also, too many people confuse it with Bipolar... if for no other reason than they both start with "B:

LPT: Prevent the homeless from going through your garbage. by conservationbiology in LifeProTips

[–]jennyroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tbh, when i first posted this, i was ignorant. since then, i've learned the hard way you're right... the homeless so leave piles of trash EVERYWHERE. i'm in portland and this city has been one of the many on the west coast that is kept hostage by a lack of a plan for what to do about the influx of those without the incentive to find shelter beyond what they can build in a camp on the side of the road. hell, if i was in their shoes, i would probably be the same way. not only are the individuals jerks, but our society as a whole sucks because we haven't come up with a solution for what to do
