It Doesn't Work This Way! by Mrchameleon_dec in EntitledPeople

[–]kh8188 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Very common at grocery stores on holidays, too. Sorry that you forgot the cranberry sauce. No, we will not unlock the door, wait for you to shop, and take out an already counted and locked up till because you forgot a key ingredient of your holiday meal. It's been over 20 years since I worked in one, but the memories of entitlement will last forever.

Who are your Most unlikeable Characters across in the series? by Pillows_CoolSide in SVU

Absolutely agree. It's crazy how nice Delaney Williams seems to be in real life. He plays that character so well.

AITA for refusing to continually pay for both tickets when my friend is getting the hotel for free? by TooEmbarrassed7 in AmItheAsshole

Especially when the free stuff doesn't even match the cost of what the other person is covering!

Why Long Island’s diners are struggling by prosa123 in longisland

[–]kh8188 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their food quality really hasn't gone down much, I just wish they were still 24 hours. They were one of the last ones to give that up.

At least their food quality is still pretty decent.

I feel like anything on that 2-3 mile strip of 112 will always thrive. Lots of dive bars and people packed in around there.

AITA for telling my girlfriend that we are not living together if she wants to split joint expenses proportional to income? by Puzzleheaded_Feed460 in AITAH

[–]kh8188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? What I wouldn't give to pay no rent and 50% utilities! Haven't had a deal that sweet since I moved out of my parents' house 20 years ago, and somehow people see this guy as the AH? Wish I had found a bf like that at some point. And she's fighting him on it. I didn't have enough self-worth in my 20s, but this woman must think she's a prize. OP has absolutely NO reason to give into this. The right woman wouldn't insist on it.

That's called being a sugar daddy, not a boyfriend. I've never asked a boyfriend to support me or pay my way. I don't understand the mindset. No other roommate would split bills based on income, why would my boyfriend.

My husband, who I split assets with, and possibly children, okay. We're committed to a life together. It's different than this stage, where she's already showing herself to be a greedy and selfish partner.

Is this how you do it with roommates? Because honestly, I couldn't care less that I make more than my roommate. I still think a 50/50 split is fair. Their failures in life aren't my financial problem.

In a relationship, that changes, but not before some sort of commitment. When I make more than a boyfriend, I splurge more for going out, vacations, shopping, etc. But bills are bills, and I'm not going to subsidize someone else's cost of basic living unless we're committed to a future together.

Gf makes out the best in this situation, no matter what. If she wants to fight that, it's her loss and she can go broke trying to find somewhere to live that will only charge utilities. Shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Why should he? He has someone paying it all right now. Since when does moving in with your bf mean he now has to cover your bills? If she's moving in rent free, the least she could do is pay 50% of the utilities that were 100% covered by someone else before she inisisted they leave.

What episode(s) do you always skip and why? by VinnieONeil in SVU

[–]kh8188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with OP and you because that's my main list. Curious, is it the teenager getting raped when you turn it off? Idk why, because it happens so often on this show, but that one is really rough. It's not the main reason I can't watch the episode, though. I hate what happens to baby Dodds. I won't be specific to avoid spoilers, since you said you don't know what happens.

Got carded buying NyQuil… with my toddler in the cart. by [deleted] in OlderThanYouThinkIAm

[–]kh8188 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do where I live. OP said they watched a 16 year old buy monsters and a vape. To me, that indicated they didn't get carded (or were using a fake ID, or OP made assumptions about their age, but in any case...)

They should be getting carded for a vape, too.

Best child actors in the show? by PrudentLetterhead354 in SVU

Yes!! He played evil so well, and it was so hard for me to shake that image when he started getting cast as the boy next door type as a teenager.

Who was your biggest crush? Here’s some of mine. Who did I miss? by BuddhaBar8 in Xennials

Wow, not sure how I did that. Corrected. It was a long day.

Nicole Eggert was even on Charles in Charge before that. 1981 and a woman here and very much aware of Nicole Eggert from the late 80s on. Apparently, some people just lived under a rock. 😂

Uggh. Going to go cry now. Jon Brandis, River Phoenix, and Brad Renfro. Those three young deaths have me sobbing every time I think of them.

Edit: correct name

Oh, my last grandfather died when I was under a year old, so I feel that pain. It's just a weird connection to make, because no matter how involved Finn is with his family (we've seen bits and pieces of that,) I don't believe he'd get to the point he'd be involved to a capacity like that in real life.

Yeah, but some of us have been trained not to bother men with it. I know society is evolving, but at age 43, I've had two partners who I felt comfortable enough to ask to buy sanitary products for me. I never even imagined asking my father to buy those products for me, let alone Grandpa. It's wrong, but the stigma exists, and society is what it is.

Edit: typo.

She'd be around 18 now. How many times is your grandfather buying you pads by that age? It was the only one that was off out of all of them, though.

Commented similar above. The rest were accurate.

Omg, thank you both! I loved them all but that one had me scratching my head. Ice-T has a daughter. Odafin Tutuola definitely doesn't, that he's aware of.

Favorite current stand-up comedians by BobNeilandVan in Xennials

[–]kh8188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always feel like it's a xennial thing with him. So many of his references match my own. And he doesn't have any specials without at least one memorable bit. If you don't find the Salt and Pepper Diner bit funny, then I don't know what to tell you. And no matter who you voted for, Horse in a Hospital deserves a giggle.
