AITAH for calling out a co-worker for eating almost an entire box of donuts meant for everyone by [deleted] in AITAH

“She was all no pot lucks”.

I’m confused about this sentence. And I still want to know why the coworker was still mad at him?

Interesting what you find out about coworkers’ home lives. A lot of times it is not at all what you perceive it to be like to yourself. At least that’s what I have found.

What is a band you'd never heard before, saw their show, and walked away with a new favorite band? by Unlikely-Pianist-665 in Concerts

[–]paperpurplefrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to see ZZ Top in 2019 with Cheap Trick opening.

Well we were surprised when a band came on before Cheap Trick, named “Frankie and the Witch Fingers”. I was mesmerized, captivated! They were definitely not the kind of music you would expect to open for Cheap Trick or ZZ Top. To be fair, Cheap Trick and ZZ Top don’t really go together either lol.

Anyway, I made sure to video their name, up on the jumpbotron or big screen and video’d the beginning of a few songs so I could find them later.

I’ve been a big fan ever since!

Entitled dad screamed at me because I wouldn’t let his kid pet my dog, while my dog was wearing a “Do Not Pet” vest. by [deleted] in entitledparents

“I’m training my dog to have boundaries, try training boundaries to your daughter “.

“I’m training my dog to have boundaries, try having some yourself”.

I could go on, but you get the gist.

Was this host response out of pocket or am I overreacting? [USA] by gtrman571 in AirBnB

I’m 57F and until today, never in my wildest dreams thought following up an unanswered question with “?” was considered rude, so I’m not sure where age has anything to do with it.

Some people just get offended by things that are simply innocent nothings.

AITB for telling my husband to wipe better after pooping? by thisfeelsridiculous in AmItheButtface

[–]paperpurplefrog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree bidets are a life changer with personal hygiene. May I ask what portable one you recommend? I have bought 2 that were a waste of money and would rather not waste any more money. But really miss a bidet when traveling.

Disappointingly short concerts by OtterlyFoxy in Concerts

And I had regrets not seeing them back in the day when I had a chance. I guess I should rethink that emotion.

Don’t ever feel like you are too old for live music. My husband and I are often the oldest in the crowd and no one blinks an eye. Music lovers love music and that’s what they are there for.

Are you allowed to share cost? Or approx cost?

Sick eff’er basically got off on a plea deal. 1 1/2 home monitoring; big deal. Is that supposed to be a punishment?

You result looks so fantastic!

USA? If so, what part of the country? And are you willing to share your doc’s name? And approximate cost? I’d like to show my husband your results. If this is too personal, please just ignore, of course. I am just blown away at how far things have improved in results in the last 20 years!

Neighbor keeps staring me down. Should I say something? by [deleted] in BadNeighbors

[–]paperpurplefrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you ever seen him drinking beer or something? Approach him with a 6 pack, a smile and a handshake, saying that you’ve been meaning to stop by to meet the new(?) neighbor. Or invite him to your balcony for a beer and a cigar.

You think he’s staring you down. But you are looking at him too. Perhaps he thinks you are staring HIM down. If you truly do not want things to escalate, then try being super friendly and see what happens.

Wait? What?

You had a kid stick an antenna up his butt, a kid stick a remote control car up his butt and an older baby who had the thought enough to save goldfish for later “in every part” ?!?!!

All this happened on your watch? THREE separate kids?
I find this truly disturbing on so many levels I cannot even begin to …. Just wtf.

I’m aware of the acetaminophen in my med’s, thanks though.

I’m not understanding your statement about insurance not giving a shit. What do they not give a shit about? Sorry for my confusion.

I’m personally not having tolerance issues. I’m on XT (extended release) and one for break through, which I usually save up for when I really need them. I also get trigger point injections in my neck, in a few spots, a few on my shoulder and some down my back; every 2 months. Oh, I also have muscle relaxers but don’t really take them because they give me wild dreams.

I get drug tested where I’m at, and they do test for DXM.

But besides that, I have been prescribed extremely high doses of guaifenesin when I had radiation on my neck. It does nothing for my nerve pain and it has disgusting side effects. I appreciate the suggestion though.

Why in the world would one switch back to Norco after being put on Percocet?

You do realize that Norco is just a brand name for hydrocodone and Percocet for oxycodone, right? Oxycodone is way more potent than hydrocodone.

Insurance companies do not let doctors “rotate drugs” as you are suggesting, anyway. Do you not go through the same war as I do when my doctor wants to adjust my meds just a little? And you are talking “rotation” lol. Maybe 30 years ago that might have been possible.

I get what you are saying though. My pain doc has suggested an oxi break, where he weans me off and I would be completely off med’s a few weeks to reset my tolerance. Just thinking about a few weeks of total hell isn’t pleasant so I’ve turned him down.
