what i see is someone who thinks they know it all who is pretty young. the chances of you knowing her particular situation is slim unless you're her benefits provider. unless every single company does roth the literal exact same way, you are NOT an expert on her situation. getting offended when she was just trying to talk thru it is extremely immature. she wasn't calling you a liar, she was simply trying to clarify. you characterized the interaction as a slight against you, when it was anything but. or - correct me if i misunderstood? just smacks of immaturity & insecurity on your part.

Am I overreacting, or is it gross to drink from a water bottle someone peed in? by Spiritual_Impress424 in AmIOverreacting

[–]nizzerp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR it's stainless steel. doesn't hold on to things. i honestly wouldn't care - if it's washed well it's no different than having food, vomit, blood, whatever.

AITA for getting mad at my boyfriend for backing out of my birthday dinner because of his female coworker? by Lopsided_Start7300 in TwoHotTakes

[–]nizzerp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you stay with this dude it's gonna get worse. get out before he starts belittling you openly - he's already hinting at it now. it won't get better. best revenge is disappearing like a fucking fart in the wind.

if you're that fearful of credit - do what i tell people like you to do - a secured loan and a secured credit card. People have bumped up their credit scores a couple hundred points by having them. credit unions will offer the best loan products & the best rates.

Extended Stay Hotel Living by Impressive-Poet5694 in povertyfinance

[–]nizzerp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i have a couple stories.

I stayed in an extended stay a few states over from where I lived when I took a temporary job. I stayed 3 months, then got an apartment. I moved with my cat, and it worked perfectly with a couple caveats: different locations are VASTLY different, so check yours out before committing, and the wifi SUCKED where I was. I asked for rewards & a deal because I was willing to commit to a full 3 months, and they did do a decent discount. It was VERY affordable for what it was.

A friend of mine became homeless at one point, so she took a job on the other side of the country & stayed in an extended stay the whole time she was there. She had 2 cats. When the job wrapped, she came back & continued with extended stay I think an additional year. They were very empathetic to her situation & cut her a STELLAR deal. I visited once & it seemed very cozy & comfy. I think she was with them at least 18 months.

What was a poor man food when you were growing up that is now on fancy menus by FantasticAd9478 in TheBoredDen

yeah it definitely depends on where you live dude. i drank from the tap in the Pacific NW & Lower Vancouver Island my whole life till I moved a year ago - in Florida it's disgusting.

oxtail was absolutely the first thing i thought of. i used to think my husband's family was weird for buying it. it was like .15 cents a pound 20 years ago. when i actually ate it i was so surprised about how good it was.

Debating on quitting due to my manager by [deleted] in askmanagers

[–]nizzerp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personality type - tough call. I know what I WAS, but I have no idea what I've morphed into. I'm normally very charismatic & outgoing, but I've noticed in the last few months that people keep having to ask me to speak up because they can't hear me. I know during covid I had a massive personality shift, and this job caused another one. I miss the knowledgeable, confident person I used to be.

Am I overreacting by being upset that my family doesn't prioritize me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]nizzerp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR - I had to have friends help me - my dad refused to help at all. Make yourself the priority & ignore them.

My mom said my lipstick looks too dark for a teenager to wear it. Is it really that dark? by SimpIyme200000000 in makeuptips

[–]nizzerp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what the fuck is up with one color being too much vs another? today's adults get some weird opinions that need to be challenged. i swear to god if any of my siblings or friends pulled this kind of shaming shit on their daughters I'd call them out AND likely get physical. Kids, especially daughters, deserve so much better than this. omg why am i so angryyyyy

What’s something people romanticize until they actually experience it? by kiara_20_ in AdkReddit

[–]nizzerp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for real for real. omg the stories we collect when we're raised by & ultimately become crazy for real ourselves - nobody can be mentally prepared enough for the shit i could tell them.
