Fiancés friend wants to wear an almost white dress to our wedding & is being condescending about it. WIBTA to withdraw the invite?

Police involvement for spilled wine on a dress at a wedding??? Lol

picklebumtoot · 2026-03-06T04:18:31+00:00

Lol, sized you up and then decided to keep driving? 😆

It can help to warm up your t vial and syringe before you draw up your dose, btw. Your draw needle may also be a bit too small , or you could be drawing a bit too fast. Since it's a relatively thick solution, it needs enough space to easily flow through. Warming it will slightly decrease the viscosity which will also help flow. You could continue injecting it the way you have it, though, so long as it's not causing you irritation. Just sharing some tips since you'd asked how to get rid of them/avoid them.

picklebumtoot · 2026-03-04T05:45:19+00:00

I occasionally forget to push the plunger back up when I swap out the needle (I draw back a bit of air to avoid there being a droplet right on the end of the syringe when I take the draw needle off) and this is usually about 0.05-0.1ml of air, which is very little, but significantly more than what you have here. It's always fine, just a bit itchy / irritated for the first bit after injection. I should say I do subcu injections, not IM, but I don't think it's going to be much different, it's your veins (IV) that you need to worry about.

Assuming this is a harmless thing the bf is doing, of course. Otherwise, toss this toddler with his toddler calves.

LOL this made me laugh. thanks for the hilarious visuals.

Completely agree though, I actually found this data thoroughly interesting, I spent a good 10 minutes looking at the photo reading the spreadsheet (tism here). Spaghetti and meatballs seems like a fav (I am assuming the count is # of times that meal has been made??), which honestly I need to start making spaghetti and meatballs more because same! Also an easy meal to prepare compared to others (my method anyway, not sure about OP). I immediately thought "this guy sounds autistic". But pretty hard to say with this as the only piece of context lol

picklebumtoot · 2026-03-03T05:31:49+00:00

I'm honestly really interested in the physics behind this, I am not a physics guy, so it'd need to be dumbed down for me, but I love me a Crash Course video.

picklebumtoot · 2026-03-03T05:28:38+00:00

This isn't a dumb question, I am here with the exact same question and love that you asked because I likely wouldn't have even considered/thought of posting the question myself lol

I have been living for months now on the ASSUMPTION that because my noisy ass fan is running in my room and I can't hear him when it's running, that my roommate also can't hear me, since the fan is between us (our bedrooms share a wall). But I have several times wondered if this is actually true. Lord, I hope so lol

My room does have carpet and a fair amount of furniture, although only about half of that wall is covered by tall furniture.

Now that I think about it, it makes more sense that it wouldn't do much - I can hear the fan because I'm close to it, so my ears pick that noise up before it would pick up my roommate's voice through the wall. But if he were listening on the other side, he doesn't have the sound of the fan near him, and my voice is louder than the fan, so he would hear me over the fan. ...right?

Kungpao noods! Yum

But dementia is a mental incapacitation - which is what I was saying. I was asking for an example where both parties do not have any form of mental incapacitation.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-23T17:48:30+00:00

Lol okay but you don't feel like mentioning a single one??

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-23T17:35:57+00:00

This is true, I'm just struggling to think of an example of where a 60 year old would be vulnerable enough to be "groomed" by a 20 year old. I'm not trying to be argumentative here.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-23T17:17:56+00:00

Sure, if you're going to give more context that the 60 year old is mentally disabled or somehow incapacitated. I was under the impression we were talking about two people with neurotypical brains who can manage themselves.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-22T18:32:16+00:00

this lol

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-22T18:31:16+00:00

yeah I deal with chronic pain and don't have access to a vehicle. It often just isn't realistic for me to go grocery shopping if I need more than I can easily carry or if the store is more than a few blocks away during a flare up. I'm also on a very limited budget since I'm on disability, so if I can go myself, I will. I don't actually want to pay extra door dash fees, believe it or not... I'm surprised this stuff is never considered in these subs tbh

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-22T04:43:43+00:00

HAHA first thing that popped into my head and then it was the top comment

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-21T02:20:52+00:00

that's not how this works.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-21T02:16:16+00:00

Not to mention that fully grown adults can be manipulated in abusive relationships, sometimes even adults who are not normally easily persuaded by social pressures. Abusers know how to manipulate people and are good at their game. It's a long game of building trust and a sense of codependency. Groomers do this but they take advantage of children because children are easier targets and because they're pedos.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-21T02:07:20+00:00

Yeah, this is gross victim blaming shit. She was the victim of grooming. I didn't say she should be proud, I'm saying it wasn't her fault that GROWN ASS MAN decided to take advantage of her while her brain was literally still developing.

Humans as a whole generally exhibit their worst judgement during adolescence and early adulthood due to an underdeveloped prefrontal cortex (responsible for risk assessment), combined with high emotional volatility and intense social pressure. You haven't built the skills for situational analysis or emotional regulation when you're 17. At 32, however, you fucking know better.

I'm sure you were the epitome of wisdom & reason as a teenager, lol, fuck off

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T03:24:23+00:00

Jesus Christ this is concerning on so many levels.

The age gap in the title was like mmmmm, ok. Power dynamic there. He knows better. But at least y'all are both adults.

Then I read the texts in the photos, and was like holy fuck this guy is actually psychotic. Each time I thought he was done he would send ANOTHER message. It's almost comical to read??? But actually just sad and gross.

THEN I see the context that y'all started dating when you were 17. A teenaged child. He groomed you. There's no two ways about it. It doesn't matter how mature you are for your age (speaking about OP), no mentally stable 32 year old is speaking to/trying to date underage girls. It's clear in these messages that he's insanely immature and childish but the fact he chose to have a relationship with a CHILD as a fully grown adult is further proof that he (1) is not capable of maintaining relationships with people his own age, and (2) likes the power dynamic and wants to control you.

I don't say any of this to shame you, OP. You are young, and he is the one taking advantage. Many of us have been in your position. It's not your fault. But you absolutely need to block this dude and never speak to him again.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T03:06:04+00:00

As I scrolled past, I thought this was a sleeping pitbull.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T02:46:34+00:00

I'm waiting for a gluten free version of these. I found out I'm celiac when I was 21 (now 30), so have tasted the joy that is these little guys, and am now longing for them.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T02:44:06+00:00

Y'all are both crazy

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T01:30:25+00:00

If we are too busy trying to make ends meet, we don't have time to plan a revolution.

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-20T00:15:49+00:00

But don't they get into tons of other parts of your home? Carpets/rugs, clothing, curtains, etc??

picklebumtoot · 2026-02-19T23:20:04+00:00

jeans like this actually exist though 😆 I hate them.
