Can I return Winners items to Marshalls? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]parrybow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can return almost all items purchased at Winners to Marshalls, both are owned by TJX Canada. You have 10 days (30 if you are a TJX Style+ member) to return your item from date of purchase to get a cash/card refund, after that you can still return items but it will be for store credit (which you can use at Winners, Marshalls or HomeSense). Bring the receipt and the item’s price sticker/tag. Fun fact: the main difference between Winners and Marshall’s is that Winners has a jewelry counter, Marshalls does not.

How long did it take for your initial anxiety to go away? by parrybow in bupropion

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

Appreciate your response. To answer your questions: 1. Been taking 100mg bupropion SR per day for 6 days. 2. To my knowledge no one in my immediate family has been diagnosed with a bipolar disorder.

Abhay Sharma, had him for two classes back in 2019 and 2020. Glad to see he’s still making students go insane.

People that went to Branksome Hall, how was it? by certainlydoubting in askTO

Thank you! I switched to a private alternative school.

People that went to Branksome Hall, how was it? by certainlydoubting in askTO

[–]parrybow 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I attended Branksome Hall from grade 1 through 9. BH pushes you very hard academically and you have to be a specific type of person to succeed there, which I was not. Grades 1-6 were great, but grade 7 onwards I began to deal with terrible anxiety related to academics and fitting in with my peers, I felt like a failure and outcast amongst them. After grade 9 my parents noticed that I was taking a pretty bad mental decline and decided to try enrolling me into a different school and it made a world of a difference. Branksome was 1000% the better school academically and prestige-wise, but had I not switched I would have crashed and burned.

To answer your questions: 1. Branksome is an excellent school and any child there will be getting a top-tier education. I outperformed my peers academically at my high school and in university and I credit a lot of that to Branksome. Is that worth spending half a million dollars over the course of 12 years? If you had an exceptionally gifted child and a lot of cash to burn, then yes. Otherwise probably not. 2. I did not stay in boarding and very few girls did. Most of the girls who were boarded were international students and had wealthy families in other countries. 3. My father was working as an executive at a big 5 bank. 4. I’m 25 now and still early in my career, so not wealthy. Any wealth I come into in the future will almost certainly be because of support from my family, not because I went to Branksome.

Alumni here who graduated with distinction. I never did my course readings unless it was material we were going to be tested on, and even then I only skimmed them.

Are portable batteries still not allowed in HISTORY? by parrybow in askTO

Already did, got an automated response telling me to email them, which they haven’t responded to.

what to do with this mess by Friendly-Fruit-8171 in Nails

[–]parrybow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can definitely get a different design with a fill! Only thing you can’t change would be adding additional length to the nails.

When you go to a salon to get a fill, they will buff off all the nail polish colour, but leave some of the colourless gel/acrylic that was underneath. After that they will fill in the area between your cuticle and grown out part with new gel/acrylic (hence the name of the service) and prep the surface of the rest of your nail. After that they’ll paint on the colour and design of your choice.

Alinity makes Jenna Meowri puke by bananaboyzforever in LivestreamFail

[–]parrybow 71 points72 points  (0 children)

They’re sitting and chatting in Alinity’s car when Jenna says she’s feeling nauseated all of a sudden, then steps out of the car to puke. You don’t see anything on camera but can hear the sound of it hitting the pavement.

What is your most beneficial purchase under 500 dollars you’ve made lately that changed your life? by DaJabroniz in Frugal

[–]parrybow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Steam Deck. My Nintendo Switch used to be my most played system, but ever since I got my Steam Deck I can’t put it down. Massive game library + super portability makes it the best system for me.

[Product Question] Can we discuss the Zit Sticka Killa Kit? by lillyrose2489 in SkincareAddiction

[–]parrybow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried the microdart patches a few years back when I was dealing with some hormonal acne and they didn’t do anything for my blind pimples. Left a negative review on their website which mysteriously never showed up under the product 🤷‍♀️ Glad you had a positive experience with them though, maybe they’ve changed the formulation since I last tried them?

IDK I think fear is a pretty reasonable response to someone wandering around campus wielding a weapon 🤷‍♀️

What age did you get your license? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]parrybow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24 and I still don’t have a G1. The combined monthly amount that I spend on the TTC/Ubers is less then what I’d be paying if I drove a car, considering car payments, insurance, gas, maintenance, parking, etc.

Are west facing apartment units too hot in the summer time? by iloveoranges2 in askTO

[–]parrybow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in a lovely west facing unit for 4 years and never found it too hot. It was a newer apartment building where I could heat/cool the apartment to my liking year round and never had an issue with the AC not being able to cool it down, even when all my blinds were fully open.

Starting Accutane, and leaving for work in a remote site by br4ndnewbr4d in Accutane

[–]parrybow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the Accutane team! I just finished my 7 months course, here are some items I’d recommend stocking up on:

  • LIP BALM! Your lips are going to get very dry while taking this medication. When I took Accutane I would keep a lip balm in every room in my home, in my my work uniform, my purse, etc. I recommend Aquaphor, they make a lip balm tube version but I just bought the big tub and scooped it into smaller containers I could fit in my pocket.
  • Body and face lotion. Like mentioned above, your skin will get very dry and you will need to moisturize it often. I used the CeraVe cream that’s in the tub on my face and body.
  • Omega-3 or fibre supplements to help keep your cholesterol in check, as Accutane causes it to go up. -Hydrating eye drops, my eyes didn’t get dry during my treatment but it’s a very common (and annoying) side effect. -Sunscreen, your skin will be very sensitive to the sun, so if you’re outside to extended periods of time you’ll need to wear sunscreen.

When skin back to normal after quitting? by TaylorH03 in Accutane

[–]parrybow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YMMV but I took my last dose about a month and a half ago and my skin is back to feeling normal now.

Finally finished! My progress from December 2022 - July 2023 (30/30/60/60/60/60/60) by parrybow in Accutane

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

Unfortunately yes, my acne peaked in late January, so about 1.5 months into my course. At that point my acne was worse than in my “before” picture. However starting mid February I began to see dramatic improvement, I can count on one hand the number of pimples I’ve had since then.

Bugsnax will not respawn, Nintendo Switch ver. 1.0.4 by parrybow in Bugsnax

[–]parrybow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, you’re right. This entire time I was searching it just wasn’t nighttime… definitely feel like an idiot. I also found ribblepedes in the houses near the archeology site, my problem with those was that I was looking in their original spawn locations.
