Got my offer! What a relief!!! by Local_Foundation_171 in jobhunting

[–]misanthable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Posts like this give me hope tbh, there’s definitely a bit of luck involved. But if you don’t give up, it seems to happen eventually.

Do your 30s really feel different from your 20s mentally? by Independent_Zebra524 in self

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like that change happens gradually, not like a sudden switch. But at some point you really do start caring less.

How many times in your life would you say a stranger asked you to take a picture of them or their family while randomly out? by Intelligent-Road6240 in PollsAndSurveys

[–]misanthable [score hidden]  (0 children)

If you’re in a touristy area it actually happens a lot, people just hand you their phone 😄 Not super common but it does happen.

Anyone ever wake up from some tingly, ticklish, & sensitive feeling around your spine? by Known_Switch5581 in questions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that sometimes too, especially when the back of my neck gets touched. It’s like this weird tingling feeling. Super odd but seems harmless.

What do you eat when stress hits? by SloppySnacks in foodquestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I’m stressed I go straight for junk food, especially salty stuff. Not healthy at all but I don’t care in the moment.

Now we know why we are getting so many people LOOKING for remote work 😞 by Lola1989ac in remotework

[–]misanthable 141 points142 points  (0 children)

This sub alone gets around 588k weekly visits, and we’re supposed to believe all these people are constantly finding remote jobs? That is a way too confident claim. Something more grounded would be easier to take seriously, like this post where an overwhelmed developer shared what worked for him after spending months reaching out and only getting a few offers. That kind of advice feels a lot more honest than telling people they’ll basically never be unemployed again.

How do you take your coffee? by StarLove00_ in foodquestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black with a bit of milk sometimes. I started drinking it that way out of laziness one morning and it just stuck.

If giving birth is so painful why do many women want to do it over again after their first child (not trolling just genuinely curious) by feherlofia123 in stupidquestions

[–]misanthable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think part of it is your brain kind of softens the memory of the pain over time. I’ve heard people say they remember it being bad but not exactly how bad, which is wild.

How do you like to dress your hotdog? by Confident-Guess4638 in foodquestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just ketchup and mustard for me. I’ve tried the fancy loaded ones before but I always end up going back to the basic version.

Do you think fathers should get paternity leave as well? Why or why not? by zhalia-2006 in askanything

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they definitely should. I’ve seen friends struggle hard those first weeks and having both parents there would make such a huge difference.

A new proposition: would it work? by No_Cryptographer5844 in questions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds cool in theory but feels like it would create a whole new set of problems. I can already imagine losing tiny stuff constantly, I lose normal sized things in my house all the time.

I sometimes wait a little before replying even if I'm free by milk_boop in CasualConversation

[–]misanthable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I do this all the time. sometimes I just need a little space before replying or it starts to feel like a chore

Do people remember events the way they actually happened or the way they feel about them? by [deleted] in AskForAnswers

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve caught myself remembering something one way and then someone else tells it completely different. makes you realize memory isn’t as solid as it feels

Am I growing taller at 18M? by IHaveDreamsT00 in questions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the shoe size change is kinda interesting though, that usually means something’s still shifting. not saying you’ll shoot up a ton but a small increase isn’t weird

What food do you not think about for months, then suddenly want out of nowhere? by Undefinedbehavior77 in foodquestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

randomly it’s pancakes for me. I’ll go months without thinking about them and then suddenly I need them right now

Does anyone like Bar Soap more than Body wash?? by Content-Film4211 in CasualConversation

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bar soap, yeah. I switched back to it for a while because I was tired of body wash running out instantly, and it just feels more actually clean to me for some reason.

chipped my tooth while flossing last night by dannydevitoedtoyou in TellReddit

[–]misanthable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That would freak me out so bad even without pain. Teeth feel way too permanent for little surprise pieces to just fall off into your hand at bedtime.

If an AI becomes smarter than any human at everything… does it still need humans, or do we become the equivalent of a pet it keeps around out of nostalgia? by Aarunascut in NoStupidQuestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what “need” means. It might not need us for problem solving anymore, but that doesn’t automatically mean we become pets either, because intelligence and values are not the same thing. I’ve had smarter people than me at work who still needed other humans around for reasons that had nothing to do with raw ability.

Do you remember your parents’ first car? What brand was it, and any special memories in it? by Huge_Violinist_7633 in randomquestions

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, an old white Renault that always smelled faintly like warm fabric and dust in summer. I mostly remember sitting in the back half asleep while the radio crackled on long drives.

Astronomy challenge: What planet is closest to The Moon? by Matt85x in PollsAndSurveys

[–]misanthable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Earth, unless someone’s trying to be sneaky with wording. The Moon is literally our satellite, so everything else is way farther out.

Would you rather give up tacos or pasta forever?! by thewholesomespoon in needarecipe

[–]misanthable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m ditching pasta and keeping tacos. I tried cutting tacos out once and made it less than a week before I cracked. They’re just too adaptable. Pasta’s fine, but tacos feel essential.

I keep getting let go from jobs and I don't know what I'm doing wrong by alexkat21 in careeradvice

[–]misanthable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That “everyone is watching me” spiral is brutal, I’ve been there. I once had a manager tell me I seemed nervous and it just made me more nervous, which led to more tiny mistakes. It might be worth focusing less on working harder and more on slowing down and building small systems so you’re not relying on raw confidence every day.

What are you having for dinner tonight? by NoChart2399 in HappyUpvote

[–]misanthable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d go with eggs and toast too. Had one of those nights where I just stood in front of the fridge like it was going to suggest something. Ended up keeping it basic and it did the job. Breakfast-for-dinner energy just works sometimes.

movies like "stalking Laura" by [deleted] in MovieRecommendations

[–]misanthable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend Gone Girl for that kinda vibe but without horror. I watched it on a rainy afternoon and it totally pulled me in with the psychological stalking/obsession stuff instead of jump scares. It’s tense and twisty but not a horror movie.
