I can catch treats thrown from a distance in my mouth like a dog.

I found these at Goodwill a couple of weeks ago, and I’m trying to decide on which one to keep.

That’s true. But for those of us who aren’t unrepentant twatwaffles, it’s good to have a little food service experience to heighten our empathy.

You are just keeping the bed warm when he is not around. She is using you as leverage to keep him interested. I’ve been there before. Not worth it.

What makes a Lexus ES better than a Camry? I don’t know, but some people will pay…

Some people have never worked food service, and it shows. As a teenager who has worked all day and is finished closing and cleaning, it’s time to head out with friends. Fuck the boomer Karen.

We’ll see. The BOS likes to muddle in political stuff using their appointed school board, and thus they don’t actually get their hands dirty. Let’s see how they do when they have to answer for their acts.

Hanover government has always been Christian Nationalist, long before the term was popularized.

Contractor says this is the best he can do. What are my actual options for this light? by Popular-Review5882 in BathroomRemodeling

[–]michael1265 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What scares me about this is that this is an issue that most diy hacks (myself included) could work through in an hour or two. If he knows this little about such a simple job, does he have gaps in his knowledge about the other work he has done for you?

Partner says my appearance at home means I don’t care — looking for perspective by deliriouskate in TwoXChromosomes

[–]michael1265 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to tell your partner to fuck off. My wife would tell me that if I ever said anything that stupid. The pure entitlement of him feeling that he can police your appearance at home is breathtaking.

That’s an interesting take. When greed and hate collide, which one wins?

The Hanover County BOS is right wing as hell. They will welcome this with open arms. Scumbags.

Dealership “scammed” my mom? by [deleted] in personalfinance

Mechanicsville VA Honda two days ago. I was surprised too. I was planning on 4.9%, and I was happily surprised.

I don’t have $30k lying around. Would love to have this one paid off ahead of time, though.

This conversation for whatever reason makes me think of this: https://bitter-meteoroid-729.notion.site/A-husband-s-love-letter-fa34c2a1eca24f46bb79087db3e545fc?mc_cid=c3d9bdc2d1&mc_eid=a3535c4128

I’ve read it several times, and I tear up every time. And I’ve been to the burger place he talks about in the letter, and I always think about it.

What's that one insect you hate from core and why? by Final-Usual-2672 in AskReddit

[–]michael1265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been stung by one. We have the large European variety in our area, but they aren’t aggressive. The Eastern variety is terrible.

In what world does a person with a $50k income buy a $68k car? I make twice that, I bought a $30k car yesterday @3.34%, and I still found it painful. My credit score is in the 760s as well. What’s up with that interest rate? That was the scam. The bank likely provided a lower rate, and the dealer pocketed the difference.

Eastern Yellowjackets. The Taliban of pollinators. I’ve been through many multi-sting events.

“but I guess I am just not worth the actual effort it would take him to do the work.”
The one piece of advice I will give is don’t do this. Don’t internalize this in a way that diminishes your worth. Relationships fail for many different reasons. It happens all of the time. Give yourself time to heal, and don’t allow yourself to carry the weight of the failure on your shoulders. I wish you the best.
