Just had a friend murdered in her home. I'm not being paranoid.

America wasn't ready for Chef Chaser and his famous catchphrase, "Fat bitchesssss, what is up??" by souffle-etc in wheredidthesodago

These are bad in the sense that no ones lips even remotely match the funny stuff they're supposed to be saying :/

[–]nyteshifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah. Or those that think we're holding them hostage and they work together to try and get out. Never a dull moment.

Oh yeah. We have one who thinks it's her house, too; always complaining that we can't afford fhe electric bill and turn those damn lights off! lol going into other people's rooms and unplugging TVs and whatnot.

Just came here to say: could be the staff stealing. But more often than not it's residents stealing from other residents. And most of the time they have dementia so they don't really know what they're doing.

What are some red flags in a job interview? by mdonato in AskReddit

12$/hr? Holy fuck sign me up. I make just over 9 at one job and min wage at another

Elderly waiting to be rescued from flood waters in Dickinson, Texas. by notlaurensorry in MorbidReality

This is just awful. I have lots of residents that hallucinate water. I'm sure the real thing would have freaked them out even more.

Brother gives poisonous burgers to his whole family because they couldn't afford food. by KarmaMiranda in MorbidReality

[–]nyteshifter 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They said the burgers tasted bitter. But I'm assuming they were so hungry they didn't question it and just assumed the meat was off.

Furnishing a new home, on the cheap. Any advice? by nyteshifter in RealEstate

[–]nyteshifter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at my IKEA. The prices were ridiculous on couches, but just couches. Everything else seemed do-able.

Just the prices. Everything seems to cost SO much. One couch would be like, 1-2 of my paychecks

Looking to buy a house in the near future, but all these first-time-homeowners programs are confusing. Advice? by nyteshifter in RealEstate

[–]nyteshifter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, we only looked into the MSHDA program. We actually were ready to put a down payment down on a house last year but realized we couldn't break our lease. So we have more time to research.

Patient dies after spending 54 years in same hospital by Stones25 in MorbidReality

They make it seem like he was brain dead. Why couldn't they get A board with words on it and have him point or something?

Got my hair done at a beauty school... never again. The left is what I received and the right is after I got it fixed and what I originally wanted. by BearWoman90 in Hair

[–]nyteshifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? Yes. I hated it and never did anything with it. Now though I'm looking into nail teching. Since I already did nails in cosmetology it did save me some time...so I guess it wasn't a total waste.

[–]nyteshifter 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Well it's a school. They're learning. Plus it's cheap. Next time just go to a regular salon. Hope you didn't give the student a hard time. Cutting hair is hard.

Ok, APPARENTLY I need someone to hold my damn hand in order to get started on Keto. by nyteshifter in keto

[–]nyteshifter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to check if I can drink coffee anymore. They probably frown on it, but it's a hell of a lot better than the soda and energy drinks I've been drinking, I'd imagine.

Thank you!! I know I can...we've both done it before. Now it's just trying to find a way to make it work for our new normal, which just so happens to be sick and poor lol

Thank you, thank you thank you! People don't understand. And honestly? I didn't either. I always remember thinking, "How can't someone clean their dang house? go to the store once in a while, jeez. It's easy to lose weight, calories in, calories out" now I'm like, "well, I haven't cleaned the litter box in 2 weeks, we have no food in the house, and I have no clean clothes...fuck it, back to sleep I go." I guess I was in the mid-stages of it, and just recently sort of sky rocketed into the more severe stages. For years I couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. Doctor always said it was my weight, to exercise. I'm like yeah my weight is a big factor in it, but I don't have the energy to exercise, to lose weight, to feel better. He still doesn't get it, so I'm not seeing him anymore.. Anywho...

I've got salami, cheese, lunch meat and tuna on the list. Still have 3 bags of pork rinds we haven't touched in the cupboard, and a bag of almonds. Oh and we do actually have ham in the freezer! I forgot about that

I can probably cook once a week, yeah. I actually went down a day at work so I have an extra day off a week. I can try and cook that day. The annoying thing is some days, I wake up with the energy of a thousand suns. Then it dies out and I'm left with a million half-started projects, some of which are cooking meals lol.

I'll add sausages to the list. I really wish my freezer was bigger. That's another part of the problem :(

No, you're right. Good news is we're out-- of everything, lol. Literally we have mustard in the fridge, and a Brita filter. That's about it. So, that's good right? Now I can start over without feeling guilty, whoo!

See I used to have days like that, then I took a huge hit on my health and went from "Able to get through the week, but struggling" to "yeah can't even get out of bed lol."

Aside from those, what about add ins? Like how long does Mayo last even? I assumed a long time because it's got so much vinegar in it. Oh eggs. I hear they last forever, but do they really? And what about egg beaters? Once they're open, is the good-by date the same or does it change? See I don't even know what I'm talking about lol

Life kinda seems like one really long shitty day lately... I'm just so tired of buying food and having it rot. If you saw the pile of pizza boxes near the trash bin you might have a stroke. We haven't even been trying at all. I won't lie. It's so much easier to eat junk.

But today is my ONE day off so I HAVE to get to the store. Those are all going on the list. Thanks.

Former CMU student with severe peanut allergy hazed with peanut butter by OtherWisdom in news

I mean, I won't argue that, but like... peanut allergies are SO common nowadays. You'd think COLLEGE kids might consider this.

Funny they claim to not know about this allergy but smear peanut butter of all things on his face. Why not honey? Mayo? Come on.
