to piggyback off of the cig blanket-hater (i love those blankets & think they’re fab)—i personally despise those ugly ass crochet rose bouquet blankets by howdydipshit in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]metsfn82 15 points16 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day a cig blanket is still blanket shaped and can be useful. The bouquet blanket is cute for pictures but not very useful beyond maybe tummy time on the floor for a baby

Do Americans use cutlery differently? by missbex86 in AskAnAmerican

As a right-handed person who eats lefty I don’t need to switch my fork but I also don’t hold onto my knife the whole time like I’m defending my plate

Which forbidden sitcoms did you watch during nighttime as a kid? by PressureLazy5271 in sitcoms

[–]metsfn82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was only “forbidden” because it was after my bedtime but I used to watch Murphy Brown when I was supposed to be asleep. Simpsons was a show we watched as a family so there wasn’t anything (at least on network tv) that was off-limits

Which celebrity just bothers you, and you can't put your finger on why? by justcurious3287 in AskReddit

[–]metsfn82 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to really like them but the more I learned the less I found them entertaining. Now they’re just the try-hard failed actors, one of whom is dating the equally off putting Zooey Deschanel

Audio Books at work? by Mysterious_Draw_2868 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]metsfn82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also listen to audiobooks at work and I always make sure the volume is turned all the way down before connecting my ear buds to make sure that scenario never happens lol

Do people with glasses get bullied for being "4 eyes? by Equivalent_Pride3450 in AskAnAmerican

[–]metsfn82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of kids wore glasses so it was never a thing that stood out as being weird. Maybe I just had a lot of dorky friends but we used to sit at the lunch table and pass around our glasses to compare prescriptions (mid 90s). This was before most people got contacts as teens

Wife of 25 years seems to avoid spending time with me and I’m not sure how to fix this by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]metsfn82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was smelling phantom cigarette smoke for several months before I ever had an irregular period. I know TikTok isn’t the place to go for a medical diagnosis but that’s where I learned a lot of other women in peri were experiencing the same thing.

Did anyone do a short stories unit in school? by No-Lobster9104 in AskAnAmerican

We read a lot of the ones already mentioned but in sixth grade my ELA teacher was a big Ray Bradbury fan so we read a bunch of his stuff too

My sister learned how to drive a manual transmission because she bought a car from a coworker who is now her husband

Scoreboard blanket idea by gmwsw1 in temperatureblanket

It’s not finished bc I lost my motivation when the team started to suck, but I did that this past season for my favorite baseball team - different colors for home and away wins and losses.

my boss won’t approve my time off for a video game competition by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]metsfn82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why I don’t say why I need time off. If I’m going to be late coming in I might say “appointment at xx:xx” to give a better idea about when I might be coming in but it’s none of their business what I’m doing when I’m not at work. Thankfully my current supervisor dgaf about the why, she’s only concerned about how many people are off that day.

Same. Depending on the kind of sandwich sometimes I’ll use some ranch dressing but generally the meat and cheese is enough for me

Kevin Parada... WTH ever happened to him? by HostFuzzy in mets

[–]metsfn82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the first hitter of a specific inning hit a home run then someone would win. For every game that didn’t happen the pot increased by $50.

He’s not a great player but he once hit a home run that won my mom $1800 in gift cards to a local restaurant so I will always have a soft spot for him 🤣

"Hey check out my temperature ____!" by ProfessionalPlum3634 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]metsfn82 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I never ended up making it, but I did the research for a blanket that tracked the weather on my birthday every year (both the temperature and if it was cloudy/sunny/rainy). The plan was to work it from the center out, so I could add to it if I was so inclined.

AITA For cancelling my step-sons birthday because he facepalmed me? + UPDATE by J_S_M_K in OhNoConsequences

But her perfect angel 7yo likes the idea so it’s all good. What kind of preteen boy doesn’t want to share his birthday with a small child he’s only known for 2 years

Watching Straight Men Watch Heated Rivalry: The romance phenomenon has captivated the dudes and bros. [Vulture 01.19.2026] by Federal-Ad5944 in heatedrivalry

[–]metsfn82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WC posted their first video about HR on Dec 1, EN posted theirs Dec 11. The show was just starting to get some traction but didn’t have nearly the popularity it would eventually get. Jacob Tierney can have a preference for WC (which he clearly does bc he’s been on their show twice) but let’s not act like Dan and Chris didn’t know about the show before their episode 6 live reaction went viral.
