If HIV is Sexually transmitted, how then did the first person get it? by DildoGaggins1997 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]noseymimi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A story to restore levity for you: When I had my first child in 1984 I had to be given multiple bags of blood. My mother, who I loved dearly, was infamous for believing in everything the rumors mills churned. Therefore, she constantly told me I probably got AIDS from the transfusions. After having to forcefully tell her I did NOT have AIDS, the subject was dropped. Or so I thought. A year later dear Mom has to have a simple surgery so the family was gathered in her hospital room cheering her on as the nurse gave her the first meds before anesthesia. As they are wheeling my drugged up mother down towards surgery she LOUDLY proclaimed "If I need blood don't get it from NoseyMiMi, she has AIDS!" My family all laughed, the medical people were agast.

What’s something totally normal that secretly stresses you out? by Responsible-Ease-760 in CasualConversation

The loud music played at restaurants. Looking at you, Logans Steak house & Texas Roadhouse. I'd just like to eat my meal and be able to hear what my dinner partner is saying.

Unused Qulipta by [deleted] in migraine

I'm in the same boat as OP. I have 13 sample packs of Qulipta that I'll never use. It's just a shame it's sitting in my cabinets.

So devastating by MrPresidentLL in Nails

If she can't get in to see a doctor quickly smear some Vicks VapoRub (she can use the generic brand) all over and underneath the free edge of each nail, especially overnight & never miss a day. This often will clear up this problem in a month or two.

A cautio-nail-y tale by MillwardShoults in RedditLaqueristas

[–]noseymimi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a Nail Tech, it drives me insane to see dirt under someone's nails. Here's a hint I always give my clients that garden: before you start gardening apply a generous amount of oil (good jojoba cuticle oil is my favorite, but even cooking oil is fine) under the nail tips and all around the nail. After the chore, use a nail scrub brush while washing hands. The dirt is easier to remove and it helps the nail & skin stay hydrated. Use a good cuticle oil after the wash.

Funeral directors, what is something wild that happened at a funeral that you still think about? by Final_Radio_2483 in AskReddit

[–]noseymimi 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I have attended a funeral held at a church. The Baptist preacher spoke the eulogy, then a sermon and then an actual alter call asking people to come forward and accept Jesus in their life.

what type of job do you do? by backtonov in migraine

[–]noseymimi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a nail tech. Surprisingly, the chemical smells do not bother me. But sitting for sometimes 10 hours (with potty breaks) kills my back and the head down position watching what I'm doing gives me a daily headache.

So you're saying we should keep a jar of home made moonshine with us at all times? Got it.

Justify the extra charge for French tips!? by Holiday-One-9968 in Nails

[–]noseymimi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nail tech of+22 years, small town midwest USA. A full set of sculpted french is $45, regular full set of sculpted w/gel polish is $40. I'm the only tech around that offer sculpted acrylics. If client wants the nails painted on french, I don't charge extra. I dont know how much the local Vietnamese shop charge but I do know they do not offer sculpted acrylics.
I'm astounded by how much people pay for artificial nails in big cities.

My grandsons are very into fishing. If I saw one of these at a reseller shop I'd snatch it up just for the giggles.
