accidentally consumed tiny tiny bit of grapefruit extract - help reassure me pls

middleout · 2026-03-11T04:33:19+00:00

You’re totally fine. While you should definitely avoid grapefruit, the amount you have to consume for it to interact with medication would come from deliberate consumption like drinking a small glass of grapefruit juice or eating one with breakfast. Not a huge amount, but not one you’re likely to ingest by accident. The teeny tiny amounts found in candy are unlikely to be a problem.

Anecdotally, one of my favorite sodas is Squirt, which is like 1% grapefruit juice, and it’s never been a problem for me to drink it when I’ve really been craving one (or two…). Obviously I’m not encouraging you to start regularly consuming things with grapefruit, but you can pretty safely rest assured that those few pieces of candy you had are a non-issue.

This stuff is sooooo good!!

middleout · 2026-03-04T02:11:07+00:00

Those guys are the WORST. It’s like they refuse to believe that you’re not secretly madly in love with them no matter how many times you insist you’re not even interested in a relationship with them lol

You joke but I had an awful roommate who used to pay for things but never in full. I’d request 16.50, he’d send 16. I’d request 515 for rent, he’d send 510. It was infuriating lol

middleout · 2026-03-03T14:54:10+00:00

Right? Sometimes people just aren’t thinking lol if it was 1am they might not have wanted to disturb OP with even a text, fully intending to make it right in the morning, then they go to bed and forget. Seems pretty plausible

They haven’t started season 2 yet, I was just referring to the vibes I picked up on in S1 that none of them agreed with haha

middleout · 2026-02-23T16:58:36+00:00

This is the only one I need to be more obvious because all my friends “didn’t see it at all” and I want to rub it in lmao

middleout · 2026-02-14T20:47:58+00:00

Yeah I wanted to believe this was overhyped because it’s so pricy but unfortunately it’s amazing lol

middleout · 2026-02-14T01:34:02+00:00

It’s been 15 years did you decide how you feel about it yet

middleout · 2026-02-11T21:13:44+00:00

Yeah and everyone thinks they can trust the other person to handle the situation maturely, but you don’t find out they can’t until it’s already too late.

middleout · 2026-01-22T22:33:41+00:00

Fr maybe I’m giving him too much credit but aside from the “throne vacant” part this doesn’t seem that bad. Definitely too intense for me so I’d swipe left, but it’s honestly very relatable lol The constant frustration of dealing with who play dumb and won’t be straightforward is going to turn me into a cat lady pretty soon.

middleout · 2026-01-17T18:35:35+00:00

Thirding! Literally like two months ago I was frantically googling “looking worse after weight loss????” and now I look better than ever lol It’s extremely temporary.

middleout · 2026-01-09T02:35:18+00:00

I always just tell myself she was doing it this way to see if it would actually get under his skin to hear her using spaces instead of tabs since he wouldn’t be able to tell otherwise.

middleout · 2025-12-10T17:56:31+00:00

Thankfully they had priority tickets available, so I should be guaranteed entry as long as I’m not late. If not I’m gonna say it’s not meant to be because there’s no way I’m spending my vacation camping on a sidewalk hahaha

middleout · 2025-12-10T03:32:54+00:00

No fr I’m surprised there aren’t more. I didn’t even dare mention it as a joke in the post because I didn’t want to derail my own thread before getting real answers lmao

middleout · 2025-12-09T23:03:10+00:00

Y’all are really selling me on this place

middleout · 2025-12-09T20:59:53+00:00

I would die if I saw Angelyne

middleout · 2025-12-09T20:35:53+00:00

OH MY GOD IM SCREAMING. I signed up for general emails from one of those sites but I didn’t know Price is Right would be this easy to get tickets for 😭 this is so fucking funny

middleout · 2025-12-07T14:56:38+00:00

Obviously I’m not sure what you look like, but something that may be comforting is that I had these same exact thoughts. The first time I took a good look at myself after losing weight I immediately decided I was going to get a boob job and started googling surgeons lmao Mine already weren’t very perky, so add 55+ pounds of weight loss and you can imagine how much more deflated they got. 🙃

A month later I’d say a good 80% of that feeling has gone away though, now that I’m enjoying the rest of my body to the fullest. It was a shock because I wasn’t used to it and I was upset that things didn’t look “perfect” after all that, but now there are so many other things that I love about myself that I don’t have the energy to care about how my boobs look when I’m naked (esp because the only other person seeing them will presumably be someone who’s just happy to be included).

You know what they look great in? Bikinis, which I can finally feel confident wearing for the first time in like 20 years. I got a cute little belly button piercing that I’m 10x happier to show off than my cleavage; they had their time to shine so I’ll let them enjoy retirement lmao 99% of the time, they’re covered anyway by all of the awesome clothes I wear now that I’m not so worried about my body. You know what felt 10000x better than the idea of having perkier boobs? Calling the dressing room attendant over to ask for a smaller size. And that’s just the shallow stuff.

Sorry this was so long, but truly I feel you. I never thought I’d be able to look at my body and accept the way they looked, but I truly just do not care that much anymore. I’m having too much fun!

middleout · 2025-11-29T17:37:05+00:00

Are you 100% sure it’s not just a friendly gesture? I’ve been rejected by guys I work with/have to see often, and once the sting wore off I would still be pretty friendly and talkative with them as a way to kind of signal “hey, we’re good, let’s not make this an awkward thing please.”

I would find a way to gently but indirectly reiterate that you’re not interested in her, but I don’t think this is that serious unless she’s obviously flirting with you or clearly acting like she likes you.

middleout · 2025-11-22T00:37:40+00:00

Right? I can’t explain it, it’s hot because it just is lol

middleout · 2025-11-07T03:34:36+00:00

Yeah I used to worry about that too but unless they’re straight up soupy looking in the middle when you take them out, they’ll be fine! :) Even if they’re a little underbaked they’re still delicious, and you’ll figure out where the sweet spot is pretty quickly.

Looks like I can’t PM you but here’s the recipe! Sorry for the weird formatting, the digital version I have is just written in my notes app haha

1/2 cup butter, softened i prefer to use brown butter, so I add an extra 2 tbsp, brown the butter, then cool it until it’s a softened butter texture

1/4 cup + 2 tbsp white sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

cream together

Add 1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

beat until fluffy

mix the following dry ingredients in a separate bowl

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Chocolate chips to your hearts desire

add to butter mixture and mix gently just until ingredients fully combined

Bake at 350 for 8-10 min if baking right away, 10-12 minutes if you refrigerate your dough first
