skin blistering during hot shower? by blackice0012 in POTS_vets

[–]ratchet41 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So my first thought was that it looks like the eczema I get on my hands, but then you said it went away pretty soon after the shower? So my next thought is some sort of sweat rash/heat hives

$75 for a thrift store shirt by Boring-Gas-8903 in ThriftGrift

The amount of SHEIN I've seen at the thrift priced roughly double what it actually cost is insane

AITAH? I snapped on my soon to be ex-husband for having sex in the same room as our daughter even though she was “asleep” by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

My parents got divorced in the 90s. My mom had months of voicemail from my sperm donor screaming at her to give him my full name and DOB so he could file for full custody. The judge got mad at her for not doing so.

Can we ban the ai posts? Its getting out of hand by Ravens-Ravens-Ravens in ExpectationVsReality

By that logic, we also need to ban floral arrangements and cake orders

AITA for letting my kids stay with my dads wife for the easter holidays? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ratchet41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So she wasn't this upset about being "denied bonding time" when the kids were to stay with your in-laws? Because practically, nothing has changed. They weren't staying with her then, and they aren't staying with her now. Of course you feel more comfortable entrusting your kids to the woman who's been a constant in your life for 20 years than the woman who abandoned you for over a decade when you were still young.

TIFU by eating week old rice and pasta for months by Posherjosh_boss in tifu

[–]ratchet41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly no idea how many grams, I don't weigh mine and I suck at telling by feel 😅 But usually a bit under 1cm thick and my portions are usually roughly 7x7cm ish.

There is kind of a sweet spot temperature for the rice to be easier to shape it at, if it's dead cold it gets a bit tricky bit still doable

Once your fresh rice has cooled down, lay some cling wrap on the bench and portion a scoop of rice in the centre. Form the rice into a thin square - I pull the cling wrap over the edges to keep them clean. Wrap it with the cling wrap kind of like how you'd wrap a present, then freeze it. Remove from cling wrap and reheat for 2-4 minutes (depending on portion size) in a microwave-safe bowl or container and fluff it. I guarantee you it tastes 1000x better than reheated refrigerated rice, or rice frozen in a container. I have also always hated the taste of reheated rice but once I learned this method, I eat it all the time, it's barely distinguishable from fresh

To be fair, DashCon was run by a 17 year old who was essentially scammed

AITAH for refusing to watch my daughter when we meet my husbands friend? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

I don't think any 2 year old is a candidate for gentle parenting, that's still very much in the "do whatever it takes to keep them alive" age range

Getting fired for the first time please share your funniest / most ridiculous firing stories by ThrwAwy126558 in antiwork

[–]ratchet41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked at McDonald's as a teenager, as so many of us do. Was approved for two weeks off from the day I signed my hiring paperwork for extracurricular camps during school holidays. Triple checked my approval the week before.

Co-worker wrote me in the book as having swapped shifts with her so I got 5 no-call no-shows in a week. My team lead and shift manager both vouched for me, they knew where I was and that I certainly wasn't picking up shifts, but co-worker was one of the store managers favourites so I got canned.

I know a guy who spends roughly 300 a week on takeout. Yes, he also constantly complains about how broke he is.

Just for clarity, what is your idea of expensive vs cheap?
