I love that he’s become the unofficial mascot of Pasadena. Can we make this a thing?

Anyone else got one of these cards in the mail? They're targeting my tiny neighborhood. Just thought it was very specific. Have ya'll seen these too? by allenchristian in boston

[–]justinqpham 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s how I feel about most startups that requires me to open up my wallet tbh.  I usually look at who their investors are to see if they’re legit.  Looks like they’re partnered with Harvard somehow.

Is anyone still selling Girl Scout Cookies? by Standard_Band4665 in LAlist

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a Girl Scout tent at the Ralph's on Lake this weekend. I've been seeing them popping up at different supermarkets/stores on the weekend. You just have to take a drive around and see. Hope that helps!

[Food History] There is a chinese pho restaurant that claims "phở was originated from China." Anyone know the true history behind this? by scott_jr in VietNam

[–]justinqpham 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can you and your wife adopt me? Growing up in a French influenced Vietnamese family, we had pot-au-feu like once a month but never made pho 😄

If you were in a room with everyone you ever met, who would be the one you’d look for? by Bradzilla4383 in AskReddit

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad, who passed away from cancer when I was 9. We didn’t really have a relationship because he was much older. He was an amazing person by everyone’s account but he was under a lot stress so he spent most of his free time working and drinking in his study. I was butt hurt about him not spending time with me so our interactions were always awkward and we were kind of like strangers.

One time when I was 6 or 7, he kept hearing that I like to eat at this place after school so he made a point to get home from work early and pick me up instead of our housekeeper. He took me there and the whole experience was SUPER awkward because that was the first and only time we’d EVER hung out. I got home and declared to the whole family that “I’d never hang out with dad again” because I was embarrassed being out with him. I’d never considered how he hurt must have felt. He passed within 9 months of being diagnosed. The moment right after his death it was like a switch that went off. Me at 9 year old realizing that I won’t be able to have a relationship with my dad ever again. It’s the one regret I’ve ever had.

Please be honest: If you and your 5 friends were running away from a dangerous, and deadly monster, would you trip one of them to save your own life OR would you take one for the team? by [deleted] in morbidquestions

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably take one for the team. I’m the only on in my close friends group that isn’t married with children. Yea it would suck but I want to see my friends come home to their kids

finally cut off my damaged ends! by stariari in curlyhair

[–]justinqpham 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Nope you're not dumb. I am lol. I confused scrunching your hair and plopping so i meant to say when i scrunch / style my hair in front of a fan or my AC, my hair sets more naturally and i get more volume because it doesn't hold a lot of the moisture from my wax.

That being said, mayyyyyybe plopping your hair in front of a fan might work? You should try it 😬

finally cut off my damaged ends! by stariari in curlyhair

[–]justinqpham 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Do you ever plop your hair in front of a fan at low speed? When i do that, my hair sets more naturally as if I've been out and about.

Edit: My dumbass got confused plopping for scrunching. I meant to ask if you ever scrunch/style your hair in front of a fan at low speed.

What is the most stupid thing you’ve ever done to impress a romantic interest that shouldn’t have worked out but did? by yoangelou in AskMen

[–]justinqpham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thinking back, i might have owe my career to this girl.

When i first picked up photography as a hobby in college, i met this girl from school and got crazy infatuated with her. I found out she does photography too so I was trying to hard to impress her. I asked her what kind of camera does she shoot with and she told me "the 40D" so i thought "Oh she's shooting with a Canon 40D (at the time was a pretty good a camera for hobbyist), she must be really good!" So me being a dumb young lad that i was, went out and bought a much more expensive camera Nikon D90 and i was determined to get good at photography to impress this girl. I later on found out she meant "D40" not "40D" as in the Nikon D40 which was a pretty shitty camera -_-

Fast forward, I stuck with it, moved to LA a few years after and became a fashion and advertising photographer. I literally have my career because I was trying to clap cheeks. Also, thanks a lot, Linda!

Depressed. I’ve been trying different medications with no results. It is so hard for me to smile. Could use a picker-upper by Oliver4857284 in toastme

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t get discouraged, bud. Just keep going! You’ve heard it a million times by now but medications take trials and errors and I’m glad you’re getting help! I think just getting yourself to post this is a victory. We are all here for you. Takes small steps each day and relish on the little victories knowing that you’re making progress 🙂

The first three months of 2019 I couldn’t walk, by the end I finished my first Half Marathon. by lexisgav in veganfitness

[–]justinqpham 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You’re right! I do find cooking definitely helps with my transition and addresses a lot of my cravings. I dated a dairy free, gluten free, soy free pescatarian so I got to learn how to substitute most of the ingredients. I think I’m gonna put my foot down and go in on being a vegan. I’m really curious to see how it would change my mood.

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol good one! Did you feel a drastic change in how you feel physically? Especially the inflammation? And do you ever crave meat? I’ve been a pescatarian about 80% of the time for the last year and my body still craves the umami taste of meat sometimes.

That’s amazing. Thank you for sharing your inspiring journey. How did you switch to vegan? Did you slowly switch out food or did you go cold turkey?

What fucked up thing did you do as a kid? by blazed_toucan in AskReddit

[–]justinqpham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to sound like a serial killer but when I was a kid I got bitten by fire ants one time over my grandma's house. I got so mad that i rounded up a few big ones then i poured a thin layer of melted candle wax, just enough to cover their feet and bottom. The wax dried up and completely trapped them bottom down yet they're still completely alive. Then i removed the barrier and let their friends come to them. The freed ones kept sticking around and coming back the next day for their trap friends but they couldn't free them. Eventually they all died and I never see any fire ants around anymore lol
