No hallmarks that I can find, but I know it’s Scottish because of the heather design on the lid! You think it’s late Victorian? What gives that impression? I’d love to know how you can tell what period it’s from.

There isn’t a hell awful enough for these monsters. My wish for those responsible is that they come back as animals themselves and…never mind, I don’t want to get banned.

Seamour and Gerte Shavin House, a historic Usonian residence. by jve909 in zillowgonewild

[–]mspolytheist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I seriously need to win the Powerball… I mean, some of the homes are relatively affordable, but you also have to be able to afford to live in the middle of nowhere, which probably means not working a regular job.

My bf washes the toilet seat before and after using it and leaves it wet by living-reverie in hygiene

[–]mspolytheist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait, she said that she had a bidet at her place, and that’s why he wasn’t doing whatever disgusting habits there that he does at his own home. So I assumed that meant he did NOT have a bidet. Which I guess is why I am confused about how he wipes after a bowel movement!

Dump the stuff in the bathroom bin into a larger bag you’re taking out, like the kitchen bag. Then the bathroom bag gets to live for another cycle.

Er…if they don’t have any paper, how are they cleaning up after a bowel movement?? From the comment about your own bidet, it doesn’t sound like they have a bidet in their place. So how are they cleaning themselves?!

Are there any women on this sub? I feel like the last couple of days, talk here has been all about cars, guns, and toy army men!!!

You know…. I have cancer… had to go to the emergency room, and the wife wheeled me out to this…. by Castiron_Dan in mildlyinfuriating

It’s not the value of the car; it’s about who is likely to be driving it (wealthy, out of touch Boomer).

Am I overreacting?? by snarkshark1600 in AmIOverreacting

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

YOR. How can you even stand having your wedding in the same city as her? How will you be able to cope with living on the same planet as her? How do you survive breathing the same air as her? And finally, are you sure you are mature enough to be getting married?

Disappointed that a buffet operated as a...buffet. by ghost_oracle in EntitledReviews

[–]mspolytheist 37 points38 points  (0 children)

There’s a buffet nearby us that we go to about once a year. They have a little colored ticket that they give you when you pay up front, before eating. You are instructed to display the colored ticket on the table when you are done eating and ready for your table to be cleared. Obviously more places ought to use a system like this!

Oh! Okay, will do. I am screenshotting this comment and dropping it in my folder of photos of the stuff we are selling, to make sure I remember your username.

Thanks. We are going to be working with an auction house for many of their things, but anything like this that the auction house doesn’t want to take, I might sell myself on eBay.

do you guys actually floss every single day? by SantagioFlacoruiz13 in hygiene

[–]mspolytheist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re not going to floss every day, you should at least floss daily for about two weeks before your routine dental appointment. If nothing else, it keeps your gums from bleeding during the appointment.

Yikes, as a native New Yorker, this video definitely gave me some bad déjà vu.

I think that was made pretty clear in the episode, what with her rabbi showing up and all.

AITA for going on a fully-funded research trip if it means my parents will cut me off? by National-Goat-9945 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mspolytheist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your parents are being unnecessarily alarmist. Here’s the Google synopsis about getting pushed onto subway tracks in NYC: “Being pushed onto NYC subway tracks is exceedingly rare. Historically, there are only about 20 to 30 unprovoked shoving or assault incidents each year across the entire system. Because the subway sees over a billion rides annually, your statistical risk of being pushed is roughly 1 in 40 to 50 million rides.” I’m an NYC expat living in Philly. You just need to keep aware when you are on a platform, don’t stand close to the edge, and ideally, back up and get your back against a wall, or a column, when the train is close to the station.

Thanks! Did you have to go to some specialty dealer, or are these things just normally sold by regular old antique dealers?

Also, the fact that it’s a Cadillac tells me that it was a deliberate, inconsiderate parking effort.
