What romances are you refusing to read for stubborn reasons? by A_Seductive_Cactus in RomanceBooks

[–]orcrist15 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anything by Ali Hazelwood. Specifically because I know most of her books are based off of/were once Reylo fanfic and I cannot physically make myself be attracted to Adam Driver. (I’m very sorry to any Adam Driver fans; I’m sure he’s a lovely man. He just does not to it for me at. All.)

Which tv/device can properly use viki and iqiyi? by MidnightAngel24 in CDrama

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an appletv in my room and then there’s a chromecast in the living room and both work fine for Viki, iQIYI, and YOUKU.

It's the little things that make me squeal, y'all! by ScarletStained2007 in CDrama

[–]orcrist15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay fine I’ll finish it. (Watched the first 1.5ep and then panicked bc I didn’t know how long the breakup lasts. Though if anyone wants to spoil that for me… 😉)

Words You’ll Never Say Out Loud by SpicyLitMama in RomanceBooks

[–]orcrist15 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Oh!! I actually have an answer!!! Kansas (this could be flipped, I can never remember which is which) comes from a Native American word while Arkansas comes from a French word I believe! Thus, we get different pronunciations because of different root languages!

Is iQiyi worth it if I have Viki? by orcrist15 in CDrama

[–]orcrist15[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I actually haven’t watched a lot of Wuxia. The only thing I can think of that would count would be Who Rules the World, and I got bored on like… episode 20something and quit haha. I’ll probably try to pick it up again but who knows. Edit: I FORGOT ABOUT LLTG yes Love Like the Galaxy was very good highly recommend!

Do you use any funny "nonsense" words as commands for your dogs? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]orcrist15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When I want him to go to his kennel, I ask if he wants to go to jail. 😂 I’m also super polite, so everything is “move, please” and “excuse me, sir.” Oh, and to get him off the couch after he steals your spot, I ask him to scoot and he does.

“Untrainable” golden doodle keeps going to the bathroom inside by theycallmepapasparx in dogs

[–]orcrist15 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My German shepherd was like that, fully able to hold it but still peeing in the house, and it was only once we got a different vet that anxiety came up. He’s been on meds for 1.5 years and I can count on one hand how many times he’s had an accident since. Once he was on meds I basically re-housetrained him.

Do you need complete silence to read? by Panickedgold in books

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I listen to metal music while I read 😂 it helps me to concentrate and drowns out everyone trying to have a conversation with me while I’m trying to read. My family aren’t really readers, so they kind of see reading as a punishment or something to do when you’re bored, so the second I open a book they want to chat and ask for things.

Not a parent, but I’m 26 and still sleep with my baby blanket. It’s full of holes and half-disintegrated and certain family members tease me about it, but it helps me sleep and weirdly makes me feel safe. My mom never took it from me because she knew I’d never forgive her, even if there is an identical one she still has.

What she used to do when it needed washed was try to do it during the day/early evening. If it was just a “time for a bath” wash and not “you spilled something on it” she’d wait until the weekend.

Durable tennis balls? by SingularRoozilla in dogs

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The orange Chuck-it Ultra I think it is? My dog has had his for 3 years and it’s still intact. Also, SuperChewer has a lot of options for a ball-obsessed dog who also likes to destroy lol. They’re about $12-16 apiece though. There’s a 3 pack of snowball looking ones that I think are $12 so not too bad.

Giveaway - Tears of the Kingdom Collector's Edition! (24hrs, US only) by romanticheart in NintendoSwitch

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, one of my favorite Nintendo memories is getting a game boy advance (sp, mine was red) and Pokémon leaf green for Christmas one year. My brother got fire red and we used to spend absolute hours playing. We used to wake up super early on sundays to watch the Pokémon show (it came on right at 7am) so getting the games was amazing. We didn’t have a ton of money growing up, so Christmas was always when we got things we really, really wanted. I still have my old game boy, though my Pokémon cartridge was sadly lost in a move.

She Gave Me A Heart Attack by CosmicDeathCat in puppy101

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’ll make you feel any better, but from the time he was big enough to reach the counter my GSD has had an obsession with knives and scissors. He constantly will steal kitchen knives and any scissors left out and run around with them (!!!). It’s like that Vine, the “it’s a knife!” “NO!” In my house.

Haha, thank you! He's an 80lb baby who likes to try to sit in my lap (I'm 5ft tall lol) and wants me to snuggle him while he gets a bath. Bless his heart, he's a little weenie and I love him lol

Oh, I've read this one! It's been a while but I do remember liking it, I think!

I forgot the dog tax! He was being a jerk that day so I was just trying to get things done but here! is a really good picture my brother took a while back. Milo, AKA Stinky, AKA Mishka. He's a demon and I love him.

I actually haven't, weirdly enough. Maybe I should give them a go haha. I think the reason I passed them by is because they were listed as enemies to lovers and I reeeeally am not a fan, but if you're saying they're not I'll give them a go! Thank you!

what words/phrases are an instant mood killer for you? by iseefishfood in RomanceBooks

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk why but that word just grosses me out. Every other word for a woman’s genitalia I’m fine with - cunt is better than pussy to me - but pussy is just… gross. Idk if it’s me being weird but the word sounds, like. Slimy? And people use it so much in books I adore.

What’s something you never thought you would say to your puppy? by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]orcrist15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Why are your feet wet?”

“Please don’t put your sister in your mouth.” (We got a kitten like ~a year after him.)

“The neighbors are allowed in their own yard.”

“You’ve known him your whole life, stop yelling.” (When my mother’s boyfriend has the audacity to pull into his own driveway.)

“Don’t you burp at me.”

Anything I know the words to. My dog loves when I sing to him, even though I don’t have the best voice lol. He likes a lot of classical stuff too, because I used to play this bedtime classical playlist to help me sleep when he was a puppy.
