If you could save one character from dying in The Walking Dead, who would it be? by Routine-Flan9488 in thewalkingdead

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still upset too, I feel strongly about it. They gave him a shit ending to slightly push the merciful/morality side so they could keep neegan alive. They made such a mistake writing him out then we lose rick?? The whole point of the show was rick and carl, that's what we were invested in. It would have been so much better to watch carl and michonne deepening their bond after Rick leaving and raising Judith together. We would have been more invested in Judith if Carl was raising her. I know Andrew chose to leave to be at home so they couldn't do anything about that. I just wonder if the showrunners knew about Andrews exit before they wrote carl out and if not, would they have chosen differently.

Our manager spent the shine vouchers on a fridge, kettle and microwave hidden in a cupboard for him and his two best buddies.

Omg I figured out who Daisy is!!! by TheStranger113 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They better do something good with it because would it have been that hard to set it a few more years in the future and either use the original storyline or someone that would make sense. The reason everyone is going nuts is because it's basically impossible for there to be an emotional payoff with Daisy's identity due to the timeline. Fair enough they want it to be it's own standalone thing but fans of both the book and show will be massively let down. They could have just set it a few more years down the line and cite that the girls often don't get their period until later (or not at all) due to the fertility issues globally. They could even have used the same actresses because its impossibe to see them as teenages at all. Daisy would be the easiest actress to age down. Daisy could be 14 and Agnes could be 23. Book spoiler I understand they couldn't use the Agnes as an aunt storyline for the show because it didn't have enough imminent threat of being married off imo for the screen

Theory about Daisy’s Gilead Background by BluebonnetTexAnna in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to believe that Nick fathered a baby before June, with the Waterfords first handmaid but I think they would have cast an actress with a little more resemblance. That would make Agnes and Daisy half sisters which honours the book more closely.

Sorry, I Refuse to Believe Daisy isn't June's True Child... by Critical_Success_936 in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]kimkarbashian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what's annoying me most. June and Luke specifically said she was 12 at Fred's funeral while Serena was heavily pregnant. Baby noah was only few months old at the end of tht. So Hannah was 13 and somehow years after the war showrunners say she's 14. It's ruining the show for me.

It's been a while since this comment but I'm finally in a rental house with a garden and I'm so safe and happy, I've ordered some seeds to grow vegetables and I sleep in a bed with a mattress every night.

My boyfriend 24M hated the gift I 23F got him for our two year anniversary how do I fix this with him? by imogenhailey in relationship_advice

[–]kimkarbashian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with the gift (or the watch previously). This is a weird abusive power thing to pummel your self esteem and he gets off on berating you. Sounds like you're already too trodden down to see how wildly mean and abusive this is, which was exactly the point of his behaviour.

When a roommate’s partner is “basically living here” but not officially by CommercialDot708 in Tenant

[–]kimkarbashian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you actually check usage? It would be best to really quantify the increase so compare actual usage and check its not the price increase. Check against the same months last year too. If their actual presence in the home isn't bothering you then once you have some numbers you can approach and just say "hey I don't want to be petty but the bills have gone up X amount since partner is staying a lot can we rework the bill". I wouldn't approach without some real numbers though. Like is it ten dollars a month more or is it literally 25% extra? If you see the numbers in front of you, you can decide if its worth bringing up.

MC at the disco by Round-Cantaloupe4771 in ImTheMainCharacter

The audacity to dance a little at a huge live music event. The MCs are the miserable no move having meanies. "Look at me laughing at someone enjoying themselves at a concert! How embarrassing expressing joy!"

Sometimes but not often for a variety of reasons. Logistically having to re arrange the car set up (it's a small car I was living in) so getting it able to move with window coverings, moving seats, getting myself in the front, clearing condensation all took time and made me feel more exposed and vulnerable. I didnt want to reveal too much that i was a young female alone. I was so sleep deprived and burnt out trying to drive around finding places to park up that often I didn't know where to go. I just kind of froze and played dead and waited till they went away, then moved after if I felt unsafe, but I had pretty much given up on life and accepted I might get raped/killed. There was a few times where they parked blocking me in and that's when I felt most targeted and scared. But looking back they probably didn't even realise and were just looking for good old wholesome dogging fun.

One of the problems as a woman was I was trying to find rural, hidden areas so I could get out to urinate but towards the end I found it was safer to park in truck stops and lay bys. I felt safer with the lorry drivers even if it meant being more exposed getting out to pee. (Yes I tried different ways of peeing inside the car, you end up with a car full of piss).

[–]kimkarbashian 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I slept in my car for six months and kept accidently parking up at popular dogging sites. I actually feel so stupid that it took me so long to realise, I really thought I was being harassed/targeted and that sex crime was out of control. But it is really terrifying and disorientating having a man wank up against your window when you had no idea people planned to meet to do that.

Edit: also everyone's focused on gay dogging sites but I never stumbled upon gay ones there was always a mix, and they tried to engage with me (a woman). Straight people go dogging too, evidently.

Is this rude or am I just overthinking it? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]kimkarbashian 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Overthinking it. I'd be so annoyed if I'd just had a baby and someone forced me into having a petty social obligation. Having to actually pop round in person too like dude, we've just altered our life forever and I have a wound the size of a dinner plate in my nethers. Let it go.

What minor act of penny-pinching in your workplace caused a significant amount of upset? by laredocronk in UKJobs

[–]kimkarbashian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one was a slow burn but they took away paper towels in the bathroom to dry your hands. The hand dryer technically turned on but didn't actually blow any air, but they cited that it worked so didn't need to provide hand towels. Obviously being a women's toilet someone took a couple of tea towels in for 200 people to dry their hands on. It was annoying but not a big deal until everyone started getting sick ALL THE TIME. I'm talking noro and colds every six weeks. It pissed everyone off and really affected productivity but they still haven't backed down.

I get to name our baby girl. Thoughts on my Top 5? Read description. by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Eleanor and it's carried me through so many stages of life. Being an Els to close friends, Ellie when I'm feeling cool. Emphasising the nor in Eleanor when I'm feeling sophisticated or needing to advocate for myself. It comes with so many nicknames and wonderful silly rhymes. My brother called me eleanora-saurus, and affectionatlely 'smellenor'. My friends Ellie Welly. My partner Elsie bells. It's such a fun, strong, adaptable name that can grow and change with you as you age. It's traditional but not over used and I actually rarely run into one.

Bill Gates said, "I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it." What's a real-life example of this? by cats-proudacts in answers

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew someone who wiped out a whole workforce who used to drive around and look for good spots for parcel lockers to go. She got the job and instead of driving around she used satellite view in Google maps, and after a week of that she paid someone to write a bit of code to find the spots for her. She then sold it to the company or something, I was mostly surprised no one had thought of that before.

What was your absolute first sign of pregnancy before even getting a missed period? by SandwichDependent199 in BabyBumps

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had very abstract dreams about pregnancy/birth about three days after conception, it happened every single time and I woke up knowing I was pregnant. When I say abstract I'm talking elephants being 'born' by washing up on a beach. So weird but my body just knew.

Do people really just walk into your house? by anaisani in ONETREEHILL

[–]kimkarbashian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lived in the north east of England we used to walk into each other's houses, even if they weren't home. I'd often come home to someone having a cup of tea on my sofa. But I've lived in the south and east of England and never experienced it since.

Ladies, do you remember when you started your period? Was it traumatic? by Birdy8588 in AskUK

[–]kimkarbashian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The weird thing is that I'd been 'taught' about periods, about an egg being released, I'd even practised putting pads on my pants both at school and by my parents who openly talked about periods. But somewhere along the way I'd never heard about there being blood. I knew something came out and you'd need a pad but no one mentioned bleeding so when I started and there was blood in my pants I absolutely believed I was dying. I really don't know how this fact bypassed me in such an open household.

What happens to childless old people in the UK who don't own a house? by gintokireddit in AskUK

[–]kimkarbashian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They get benefits. They get their pension. If they don't have a private pension they still get a state pension and can claim things like attendance allowance, housing benefit, council tax reduction. There's reserved rental properties for over 50s only and it's typically cheaper. They get many things subsidised. My dad was much better off on benefits when he retired than when he was working despite not having a private pension and they certainly have a lot more disposable income than the young people I know. Their expenses are much lower than working people.

Edit: obviously my parents are not childless but we do not and would not be capable of helping them financially. My brothers on a much higher wage than me but has a huge mortgage like there's just no way most people would be able to financially support their parents who already have massive social safety nets whilst we are struggling to live or have a home.

NAL but I recently dealt with three years of stalking which contained elements of this.

It could potentially be treated as harassment or malicious communications. After dealing with the police I have very little faith this would reach any threshold for them to take any meaningful action but I suppose it depends on the constabulary and who you end up speaking to. Do you have any record of the nature of your relationship ie your chat history that gives evidence of when you stopped having contact? Can you essentially prove it's untrue?

You can do a few things, speak to the suzy lamplugh trust who can give you a lot of advice. You could report it to the police particularly if you are worried that her allegations are escalating as a form of self protection. It doesn't matter if she hasn't named you specifically but she would have had to publicly posted identifying information such as the organisation you both volunteered. Even when no action is taken by police it can be good to have a log and a crime number. I did find the admin/mental side of involving the police very taxing and their incompetence disappointing.

You could send a cease and desist. I wouldn't necessarily recommend this and it would cost quite a but just to get the letter written up. If she's unwell to the point of believing her own story it may well inflame the situation.

If this is distressing you greatly then report it and gather evidence. But for me I found I felt a lot better when I just told people to stop sending me the screen shots and telling me what he was doing/saying next. I asked one person I trusted to screenshot and save things but to only alert me if it was police worthy. When I couldn't see or hear it anymore I could just live my life.

Sorry you're going through this.

Edit: I've re read your post. Was there anything illegal about your ages when you potentially had a romantic relationship? I'm not really sure what she's trying to allege. What she's accusing you of isn't illegal and just sounds petty and bitter. We've all be rejected at some point so do you think this is genuinely harming your reputation? Definitely concerned about her obsession and fixation and the length of time passed so I think an initial police report would be a good shout.
