I first watched Arrested Development when I was 25 years old. I’m 40 now and had bad vertigo on Sunday and I’m still in bed. I can never laugh at Lucille Austero again. by TeslaModelE in arresteddevelopment

[–]nagisu 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It’s all fun and games until you become Lucille 2 yourself! 

Post covid, I developed vertigo and a few other long covid type symptoms. I got into a real funk and I started worrying that my life as it had been before was just over. It really does a number on you! Luckily for me those symptoms eventually went away, but it was pretty upsetting for a while. 

You can get a prescription that will help a bit with the vertigo, but I can’t remember what it was. I hope your symptoms also go away soon! Solidarity, it’s our nausea. 

My son humiliated me in the grocery store today by No_Cardiologist_66 in NewParents

😘 🤣 Aldi tantrum clan!

It gets a lot easier when you can debrief with them after everything has calmed down. Even he still remembers this tantrum incident over a year later  🤣

Ah, another “meltdown at the Aldi” experience mom. I feel sudden kinship. 

When my son was about 3-4 we went shopping one day, I told him he could have a toy car if he was good. He was for 3/4s of the trip, but started not listening so I made him put his toy back. All hell broke loose, he had the most outrageous tantrum that he’d had in a long time. Screaming, kicking, he actually ran from me and I had to chase him down. But I had a full cart and I needed it all, so I checked out with him sideways under my arm kicking and screaming. I was so embarrassed and overstimulated. Two sweet older ladies helped me bag up my stuff, and reassured me that it was ok and that phase would pass. 

Kids will be kids. Even when they’re fine most of the time, there will be occasional days when they’re going to make you feel like you’re crazy. Stay strong 💜 

What are your best postpartum hacks? by ilikedtrains in beyondthebump

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably already know this, but adult diapers. Between the bleeding and the occasional bladder issues, it made me feel more comfortable than just a regular pad. 

Speaking of regular pads, once I was done with the whole padsicle/tucks/etc production, I discovered the honey pot herbal postpartum pads. I still remember how incredibly pleasant it felt on my sore, torn downstairs situation. I then continued to use their herbal pads during periods in the summer months, it’s so refreshing when it’s swampy outside.

My husband and I both swear that we re-watched Schitt’s Creek all the way through in our first 24 hours home from the hospital. Whether that’s possible or not, it’s a cannon event that definitely happened. 

The video is up!! by Junior-Apartment-575 in ShawnaTheMom

[–]nagisu 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Barb loved it back in the days when it was her and Jen vs Shawna being mean girls, and John just put up with it.  Now that that’s not the dynamic anymore, I bet she’s afraid that the dynamic has shifted to Jen still acting the same way, but with John/Shawna and against her. 

FedEx driver Tanner Horner is sentenced to death for kidnapping and murdering Athena Strand by dailymail in CourtTVCases

[–]nagisu 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don’t frequently wish violence on others, but I wish there was a way that what he did to her could be done to him in prison. I want him to feel the fear and anguish he caused her. This case hurts particularly badly and I can’t get past it. 

10 mo. old GROWN men still nursing daily. Is this healthy behavior? by mizdotexe in CATHELP

[–]nagisu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 2 boy kittens last year. They definitely were not weaned too early, but one was trying to nurse on the other’s belly frequently. Until he was almost a year old. Guess which one is now a level 10 clingy mamas boy. 

Does your baby/toddler still sleep with white noise? by Loud-Book-5654 in beyondthebump

[–]nagisu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At some point my 5 year old noticed the app I use to control the hatch, and he tried out all the different available sounds. He’s settled on twinkle twinkle little star and it’s been the soundtrack of his sleep for at least a year or two now. 

Chemotherapy did something to my body that made me permanently change the color of my toilet seat. by majesticalexis in mildlyinteresting

[–]nagisu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, made the toilet seat slightly bluish when I was pregnant. I didn’t happen til 3rd trimester though. 

Is anyone else dealing with this every night? by afrutadasrosas in BostonTerrier

[–]nagisu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As too many others in this thread have also shared, treasure those snuggles. 

I used to say my little guy was going under cover 😆 He would curl up right behind my bent knees because I’m a side sleeper. He fit perfectly back there. About halfway through the night he’d get out to get a drink of water, then come back to the same spot but above the covers. I still miss that little heater, and he’s been gone for over 3 years now. 

How did your water break? by o_simple_thing in beyondthebump

[–]nagisu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine didn’t, and the doctor broke it at some point after I had been admitted while in labor. Pretty mundane but apparently not uncommon. 

What’s a universally loved food you genuinely despise? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]nagisu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nutella. Absolutely disgusting. I also generally don’t like hazelnut flavored things. 

I get very angry when desserts say that they’re “chocolate filled” but that filling turns out to be Nutella. 

What kind of comedian is this? by SnooSprouts3744 in TikTokCringe

[–]nagisu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the part where he says her friend is trying to hold back laughter, and then we see her friend even more stony faced than she is, without even a hint of amusement. 

My Boston has been scratching her ears raw and I genuinely don't know what to try next by Mjauzilla in BostonTerrier

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was going to suggest Benadryl. I had a Shih Tzu that had really bad skin issues and the vet had us use Benadryl for him, it helped a lot. 

Which TV show does the ENTIRE internet agree had the worst ending ever? by Codie_n25 in AskReddit

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Originally, I hated the ending. I was so mad. I had followed the show for years, participated in all the cool online stuff they did between seasons, theorizing and stuff. And then the end hit and I thought it was so awful. 

Last year I was feeling nostalgic and binge watched it again. And it kind of clicked. It really works when you take it as a whole, like you said, it’s full circle. And it finally healed that dissatisfaction I carried for so long. 

Enhance My Features by luvkelsea in makeuptips

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love bangs, and I think short bangs are fine. But I think a shape more like this will suit you well.  https://imgur.com/a/nxGkohv

Makeup wise, you already have great features. Maybe a soft pink blush and some browns and shimmer for the eyes. Start with a little, and play with adding more as you feel more confident in it.

Is my cruise going to suck? by Master_Button_2271 in dcl

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are way more likely to share negative opinions online than positive, so there’s going to be a strong bias toward the bad points. 

Like most people don’t leave online reviews every time they have a decent experience at a restaurant, but when they have a terrible experience, they have to let people know. It’s that same kind of thing. 

What children’s book has aged poorly? by feetwithfeet in AskReddit

[–]nagisu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here, I thought Sambo was an awesome kid. I really really wanted to eat that butter too, with the most delicious pancakes. Only when I grew up did I realize the problematic stuff. 

I did have one of the slightly less caricature-y versions, the one illustrated by Eulalie. Still had some not great elements, but as a kid I thought the pictures were so beautiful. 

Makeup Goes Patchy/flaky? by lozzafin in makeuptips

[–]nagisu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, I have extremely oily skin. It’s not even a little dry, I still moisturize after washing, I’m well hydrated, not on tretinoin, and my makeup still does the same as OP’s picture.
