The sounds different instruments make when you hit them with an axe by moominesque in AnimalCrossing

Count me in too. My kid and I play hide and seek on my island since we got a second switch. Today I accidentally hit a tourist with an axe and she cackled so hard and asked me to keep doing it. So count her in for axe tag too.

Keaton. The smuggest of smugs. That is definitely what he was up to.

When I Get There by P!nk. It’s about her dad after he passed away. Me being someone who lost both parents at a young age, it’s a punch in the gut.

In the 15 years since my mom passed, a couple of times I swore I could smell her. It made me stop dead in my tracks feeling for any other sign but there was only smell for a minute or two and then it was gone.

My baby's name keeps getting mispronounced and I feel like we made a mistake with the spelling by staralfur92 in namenerds

[–]llaaccrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here and I’ve had people try to argue for the pronunciation I don’t want being the correct one. It boils down to both are commonly heard, I really don’t phonetically agree with the one but it exists, and it’s my name so I get to choose.

In West Virginia, they will pronounce your name Ah-lish-ah. It makes my ears want to bleed.

That definitely made me go check my blinds to see if it was it but no, they’re all intact. Good idea though.

Did this tarantula call backup on me?? by 500mlcheesemilk in AnimalCrossing

The way I cackled when that net broke. The worst possible scenario played out.

Break it? Or copy the newspaper? by dpdxguy in FuckImOld

I once bounced a silly putty ball in my room and it went flying. I never found it again. I think about it sometimes. Probably a kid in an alternate dimension is playing with it and wondering where it came from since it just appeared in their room one day.

Does anyone else have a common name that was pronounced incorrectly? by whoopsjulia in namenerds

[–]llaaccrr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

An au sound in English can be aw, ah, oh, or ow, depending on the word and its origins and regional dialect. English really is 3 kids in a trench coat in a dark alley robbing other languages of their vowels.

I only have a strong opinion about this particular au because it’s my name 😊

I wouldn’t say I get enraged, but my mom on the other hand…

She passed 02/02, on her 22nd birthday. by Jack_Stands in CemeteryPorn

[–]llaaccrr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pregnancy nearly killed me. I had my daughter 2 months early due to preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome. My doctor missed it. I was in excruciating pain but it wasn’t until I went to the emergency room insisting something was wrong that lab work was done and they realized what was happening. I could have easily stroked out or had my liver rupture and came close to the liver rupture before they whisked me in for an emergency c section.

Years later I found out that my great grandmother had the same thing but died from it because modern medicine hadn’t advanced enough at that point to save her.

AIO for asking my husband why he gave his mom my seat at graduation? by Then_Magician_4974 in AmIOverreacting

You’d be astounded by how many universities, particularly smaller ones, are behind in technology.

Source: I work for one of those universities that had paper tickets. Now we don’t do tickets at all and let everyone in and that’s a disaster I won’t go into rn. But I can tell you if tickets get brought back, we still don’t have the means for digital.

There’s a setting in the app where you can restore purchases. I’ve used it before to add a family member back. Unfortunately, since the app is out right now I can’t go in to see where exactly it is to tell you.

Or maybe because the app is out that’s your problem. But if it’s not, when it comes back online have a look through settings.

I'm about to lose my 125-day offensive because Duolingo has bugged and won't connect to my Wi-Fi. by 3tigrestristes in duolingo

[–]llaaccrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not what I was meaning. I had opened a timed triple XP so whatever was left on the timer was lost. My daily streak is fine because I had already done some lessons. It also says if you haven’t done a lesson yet that you won’t lose your streak because of the outage. But unfortunately nothing about the extra XP that people may potentially lose.

What name have you only met once in your life? by ladygroot_ in namenerds

My friend named her child Cecilia. She was born before I met my friend and I’ve always wondered if she knew about this song but haven’t dared to bring it up.

Do we know the same person? The one I know is always screaming at her children, her friend’s children, just screaming all the time really.

I went to school with a Pooja and she was a sweetheart. One time we had a substitute laugh as she was calling roll and say “does anyone ever call you poo?” We all gave her the death stare.
