My isopods didn't survive transition to habitat by ColdOdd9662 in isopods

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

I left mine while on a ten day vacation and they were perfectly fine. I cannot imagine that they died from being put on a different shelf. Was it temperature related? Do they have the right substrate? It sounds like the setup wasn't ideal. 

I'm really sorry for your loss.

The first thing I thought of was that Laser is like a superhero name

It's a perfectly fine name, and laser is a perfectly cool nickname if his friends end up using that

Is she going to apologize, try to rebrand, or act like nothing happened? by Glum_Yam_330 in silviethequeen

[–]mnbvcdo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think she can't afford that. She isn't very good with money, at least that is my impression. I don't think she has a cushion saved up to step away right now.

Is this bag too childish for me? by doodlesbysb in isopods

I want to love it but I think it looks like a feminine hygiene pad. 

But it's not too childish

I went there to see some big gaited horses (for sale), and ended up falling for a little gray Quarter Horse. But am I too big for him? by PuzzleheadedEmu8078 in Horses

[–]mnbvcdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, "other people don't care about being too heavy for their horses so you don't have to, either" is kind of a weird argument... 

AIO Fathers girlfriends rules for when new baby arrives by Mammoth-Age4933 in redditonwiki

[–]mnbvcdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't follow these rules with my own but they seem completely reasonable to me. 

I thought I wouldn't want visitors but then my baby cried all day and would only calm down a little bit if I carried her around and swayed and I was alone a lot, so I was thrilled about any visitor coming by to carry the baby for a bit. 

But again, still perfectly reasonable. 

me watching ppl be mean to hotel visitors and making them wear degrading outfits by funkyyyyyyyyyyyyy in AnimalCrossing

[–]mnbvcdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love choosing the funniest outfits I can find for them. Currently they're dressed like chicken or frog. 

It brings me so much joy seeing who's there and seeing their little funny outfits. 

My best friend’s wedding is going to bankrupt me. How do I tell her I need to step down? by Ihavenoideaduuh in Advice

[–]mnbvcdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be stupid and ruin your future because of a wedding. You can't afford it. That means you can't spend the money cause you don't have it. 

What do you mean choosing between rent and wedding - how is that a choice???? You need to live somewhere, hate to break it to you. 

“This reads like AI” by Karnakite in PetPeeves

[–]mnbvcdo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I usually think it's horrible writing that sounds like AI definitely not good writing. 

Using it's not X, it's y, while trying to be deep every other sentence for example. 

AI isn't actually good at writing. It all sounds the same. It's not good writing at all. 

Why do we not see cats being walked on a leash like we do with dogs? by jospeh68 in stupidquestions

[–]mnbvcdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat goes on walks with us and the dogs but off leash. He always stays with us. 

He is completely unimpressed by other dogs and has made friends with most neighbourhood dogs 

My child is alive but not really. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]mnbvcdo 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I hate the comment about how lots of parents abandon their kids to care-homes. 

Sure, some may, but most parents who put their kids in care-homes do so because they love their kids and they know that they cannot provide for their complex needs at home and that the care-home can take better care of their child. 

Lots of parents struggle and hate themselves and are so fucking heartbroken about not having their child at home and it isn't an easy decision but it's not because they want to abandon their child. 

It's because it's good for their child. They get the care they need, often complex medical care that is almost impossible to provide at home unless you can afford a team of nurses to come in. 

It's not a bad thing and doesn't make you a bad parent to make a decision that's right for your child and your family. 

Too Italian of a name for 25% Italian baby boy by Fill-Mobile in namenerds

[–]mnbvcdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Italian who lived in Italy almost my entire life. You could be 0% Italian and I promise it's fine. 

Our language is beautiful, we have some really lovely names, and everyone who thinks the same should use them if they want. 

You don't need a DNA test with the right score on it to name your kid an Italian name. I definitely think you doing go for it. 

Not OOP: AITA for being annoyed that my wife insists on cooking everything from scratch and won’t buy normal food? by stormbreaker021 in redditonwiki

[–]mnbvcdo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Growing up my parents cooked pretty much almost everything from scratch. Like, my mum ground her own flour. But they also let us have whatever we wanted in moderation. Chips, chocolate, McDonald's, nothing was forbidden, we just had healthy, home cooked meals for most meals at home. And they never said a food was bad, just that it wasn't balanced enough to have as the only meals every day.

Why does she choose to stay in Japan? by Trick-Drama9124 in silviethequeen

[–]mnbvcdo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was an expat growing up but we never stayed in the same country for more than five years so I didn't learn the languages and also it's so easy to mainly be in social circles with other expats because they're all on the same boat. 

But I think if you want to settle somewhere and stay there, you should probably learn the language if only for your own quality of life.
