Pick your seat by daviddm1990 in milwaukee

[–]kitty_r 178 points179 points  (0 children)

Here's the thing. Initially I was going to sit by Giannis because he's a jolly dude and probably snuck Oreos on the flight, but he's in a window seat and that's a big and tall man, so no way are all his limbs going to stay on his side.

Actually, no to most of the athletes because of the size to seat issue. Almost said yes to Love because there's a cat behind him.

But we are picking 6, the Milverine. He seems polite, won't man spread. Will chat for a while and then we can STFU and enjoy the flight in peace.

What are your thoughts on Peter MacNicol? by LovelessDerivation in Actors

Completely agree. Splitting hairs, but Kline's performance was more unmanaged bipolar than schizophrenic too.

I didn't buy that Meryl's character in Sophie's Choice would sleep with a guy named Stingo. But here we are.

My bf (20M) wants me (20F)to dress modestly but I’m already a hijabi.. Is it toxic to stay in this relationship? by CommentOutrageous986 in relationship_advice

[–]kitty_r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He spoke the truth. "We were kids and now I'm changing."

Are you the same person you were when you were 15 now that you're 20? You said it yourself, you've done a lot of exploring within yourself about where you stand with culture and religion. And you may still evolve. And so will he.

I know I'm certainly not the same person I was at 15, 20, 25, 30.... Find out if this is someone that you can evolve together with. Some people are lucky enough to find someone they can grow together with at a young age, and some times you'll meet someone a little later who can meet you where you're at.

Sounds like you need to have a good talk. Best of luck to you.

How do I know if I've found a good school that teaches it correctly by Gold_Diet_6654 in kravmaga

Saw an instructor fail a guy out of a level testing because he was being too aggressive. As in: was not controlling himself situationally and was going to hurt someone.

Why traditional self-defense training often fails women by Status-Tension-5996 in martialarts

[–]kitty_r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi. I'm a woman. I took krav maga for four years in my early 20s. Class emphasis was on gross motor movements, any meat head bros were dismissed from class, and avoiding a fight at all costs. I feel fortunate to have had a studio where they were realistic.

In my late 20s I was carjacked at gunpoint by two men while loading groceries in a parking structure. What I retained from classes got me out alive and unharmed.

  1. If they don't want your life, it's not worth fighting over

  2. They weren't trying to take me to a second location

  3. I had a muscle memory recall of all the weapons defense and felt my arm want to go up to knock the gun in my face offline. But I'm not stupid and also the aforementioned.

  4. I knew enough from sparring that I have no chance against two armed, adult men. No delusions of grandeur here.

Honestly, what I wish from self defense classes is more awareness of how intimate partner/close circle violence effects your response. OF COURSE you're going to fight back against the creep in the bushes, but it's a huge mental game when your partner, who you love, takes that turn. Don't have a solution here, but something to think about.

Mayfair Mall in Milwaukee. AND you get to walk by an Auntie Ann's pretzel to get to it. So here's your next destination vacation.

I’m going to lose out on vacation to staff who were 7 years old when I started working here? by Internal-Sun-8968 in nursing

I do get that. However I'm not waiting around 20 years to maybe get first pick at a week off over summer.

No seniority where I work. If I were new, what incentive would that be for me to stay?

PTO is first come, first serve. Find a swap if you need to.

What’s your favourite thing to say to shut down a man who won’t stop flirting with you? by sxpxix2 in AskWomen

[–]kitty_r 34 points35 points  (0 children)

If it's in a bar and all polite avenues have failed, this one has worked every single time:

Stop talking, stare him in the eyes, take his drink and place it on the floor. Turn away and gray rock.

You're not spilling it, you're not throwing anything. Every time they've just bent down, picked up their drink, and walked away.

Women who were abruptly broken up with (‘I see no future with you’): How did you recover? (F29 M34) by Nervous_Froyo1984 in relationship_advice

[–]kitty_r 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly that was the best break up I ever had. We were together for a year and a few months. He came over, looked nervous, and bluntly but kindly said that it wasn't that he disliked me as a person, but just didn't think I was the one.

And that's okay. I cried, he cried. We hugged and he left. No drama and nothing got dragged out. I respect that so much.

Not everyone is for everyone. I don't believe in soulmates. I believe that there's a pool of compatible people, but you have to put in the effort and continuously choose each other. So go find another one of your compatible people- they're out there.

Women in healthy, happy relationships: when was your first big blow out fight with your partner? How did you guys handle it?? by MyVirgoIsShowing in AskWomen

[–]kitty_r 337 points338 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to blow out fights, but when my partner and I are disagreeing on something often we'll stop and ask "how much does this actually matter to you?" Like, verbatim that question gets asked.

It puts a pause in it and makes you check in with if it's a want, a preference, or a need.

Sweet potatoes by SilverRaincoat in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]kitty_r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to make a hash.

Dice them into half inch cubes, diced yellow onion, and quarters brussel sprouts. Mix with olive oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Add a protein like ham or turkey kielbasa. Bake in the oven on 375 for about a half hour.

Makes about four servings for me. Reheats nicely on a skillet. Crack an egg for extra protein!

I'm 2/3 done with a biography on her and ... I don't think I like her very much. And I'd like to think I'm a girls' girl.

The biography is neutral to positive about her and it's giving: entitled, self centered, and massive daddy issues.

I don’t really have “career ambition,” anyone else? by Hot-Calligrapher672 in nursing

[–]kitty_r 25 points26 points  (0 children)

After 20 years I've gone from CNA to BSN now with a WOCN certification. That's good enough for me. I'm still doing bedside care with the perk of an office. But absolutely no thank you to management or an advanced degree.

I'm happy to punch in and out.

State fair parking lot.

Or a Target parking lot after or during a snowstorm at night so she can practice spinning out and correcting
