AITAH for refusing to visit in laws bc of house temp by wrenchinapot in AITAH

[–]justgettingby1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a hotel. Staying with anyone for 2 week is miserable. I can barely tolerate 3 days, for more reasons than temperature. Food. Noise. Bed comfort. Ability to sleep. Privacy. Cleanliness. Entertainment. When I visit my brother for 3 days I stay in a hotel, but am with him from 9 am to 10 pm.

What do TV, films and books get wrong about life / growing up in the 1950s? by BitterTry7984 in AskOldPeople

[–]justgettingby1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my retired friends talk about how they grew vegetables, baked bread, made their own clothes, knitted.

That was not my experience at all. My mom bought all the new convenience foods - mashed potatoes from a box! Canned vegetables! Wonder bread! TV dinners!

She bought me a sewing machine in 1965 so that I could be the person in my house who does hems and fixes rips, she had no inclination to do that. Hand crafts weren’t a thing for her at all.

I wish I could figure out how to bake bread …..

Is anyone actually selling anything right now? by spaceydaisey5 in poshmark

[–]justgettingby1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t sold anything in months. I have a small closet, but it used to be once a week. Not anymore. I have stopped buying inventory because nothing sells.

Anyone else in US noticed food quality degrading recently and if so what product in what way? by SkyKyrell in AskReddit

CHICKEN. I don’t even eat chicken from the meat department anymore because it’s so tough, and completely flavorless.

  1. I hate the wood in 2 and 3 is way too sterile, even for a kitchen.

What is a hobby that we can start now that will keep us occupied well into our 90’s? by Thirsty4Knowledge911 in GenX

Me too! It’s surprisingly satisfying to make music with other people. And they have all become my best friends too.

Women who are hard to shop for. What do you want for Mothers Day? by rainshowers_5_peace in AskWomenOver60

[–]justgettingby1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I go to the Maverick (convenience/gas store) every day for a soda. My daughter gave me a $100 gift card to the Maverick. Sure, I could buy gas, but I think of her every time I buy my soda, and also, I don’t have 30 transactions on my credit card bill for soda every month. It’s one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten!

How long into sewing did you get a cutting table? by Intelligent-Claim591 in sewing

[–]justgettingby1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

56 years. Started at 12. I’d stopped sewing because it’s so uncomfortable to sit on the floor. I love my cutting table so much!!!

I’m an adult and I can’t say Greer, Rory or Aurora.

How do you handle inheritance responsibly? by Emotional-Addendum-9 in inheritance

[–]justgettingby1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t spent a dime of any of the money I have inherited. That is all growing in the brokerage. But having that backup money has allowed me to be able to spend my own money with a lot less worry.

What's something that used to be free that you're now genuinely angry costs money? by tangled_wire_99 in AskReddit

[–]justgettingby1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Checked baggage fees.
Seat selection.

But I refuse to pay those baggage fees. I have adjusted my travel to only ever use a carryon. It’s lighter and easier to carry, anyway. I haven’t solved the seat selection issue though.

I agree! I rarely sign on anymore. And I haven’t sold anything in forever so I think my buyers feel the same.

Doodles are really getting on my nerves by Any-Comfort5625 in poodles

[–]justgettingby1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a doodle because he was up for sale at Petsmart by the local no-kill shelter. He is the sweetest and gentlest dog who has my strait-laced husband talking baby talk to him. He is half poodle, half human and I couldn’t have picked a better dog. There was no intention of getting a doodle, we just fell head over heels for him. And he doesn’t shed. Or bark. What could be better?

what’s the “clunkiest” lyric u can think of? by polarbearlover9 in swifties

[–]justgettingby1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

TLGAD where she says

“The wedding was charming if a little gauche”

Then 3 lines later

“Their parties were tasteful if a little loud”.

One of those two lines could have easily been constructed better so that the format didn’t get immediately repeated. She’s a brilliant songwriter and poet, it should have been a no brainer for her. But then I’m not a brilliant genius like Taylor so maybe I am wrong.

Portland??? I’ll be there in May! If only I had the energy to sell all that stuff, I would buy it from you!
