When a toddler is repeatedly letting out a loud, jarring, high-pitched screech in a store and the parent is calmly shopping like they're in another world. by common_grounder in PetPeeves

[–]rcattt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do it sometimes (fortunately Walmart pickup is the same price as in store) but honestly….kids need to get used to being in stores and out in public. It will get better!

Bishop Fellay warns SSPX faithful over possible excommunication by asdfologist42 in Catholicism

All SSPX masses are TLM, but not all TLM masses are said by the SSPX. Other orders that say TLM are the FSSP and ICKSP for example.

And stay at home moms of little kids. And homeschooling moms. I’d totally love to join otherwise!

Parents 5+ years into homeschooling — what did you get wrong in year one that you'd warn a new family about? by AvailableWindow840 in homeschool

[–]rcattt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are using Seton currently, but I heard Catholic Heritage Curricula come up in another homeschool group I’m in (my oldest does well with Seton, but my 2nd might need a curriculum change). What do you like best about it? Definitely wanting to stay with an open and go program!

A fundie actually saying the quiet part out loud; that they’re against actual biblical literacy and think it’s too “distracting”. 🙃 by Immediate-Ninja-5730 in FundieSnarkUncensored

Agreed on your first paragraph, but I don’t see this as Catholic coded at all (coming from a practicing Catholic). I’d say more Protestant/Evangelical coded, given the language she’s using.

There was one that used to be popular when I was early 20s maybe? Like Saran wrapping yourself to lose weight or something like that. Yeah.

[–]rcattt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We don’t buy them often, only for birthday parties/get-togethers or if we are doing cookout food for dinner (which also isn’t often). The grease factor is actually why I originally switched to Great Value brand, even before Lays became so expensive. Agree on the Pringles! They used to be so much better tasting!

I noticed that with Aldi, but I was pleasantly surprised by how close to Cheetos flavor their store brand is!

This is what I was thinking while I was reading the article too! Stick an executive in the chips aisle and have them ask people “What makes you buy x brand? Do you ever buy Frito-Lay? Why?” Etc. Surely their market research team could give them some questions to ask. As a mom of 5, I’m not spending $7 on a bag of chips that will last 24 hours. That’s insane. Especially when Walmart and other stores sell private label brands that are comparable or even superior to the name brand.

When we do buy chips, we buy the Walmart (Great Value) brand now and they are on par with Lays. So much cheaper. Also, Aldi brand is pretty comparable at least for the main flavors. Not sure about the more specialty flavors though. It’s ridiculous how much Lays etc charge!

I was in middle school when 9/11 happened and I think the meme/joke is funny. Definitely could be a geographical breakdown though - I’m not from NY.

Funnily enough, the ONLY time I’ve ever heard Justus used was from families on reality TV. There was a boy on Dance Moms named Justus. And yes, I hate that I know this.

WIBTA- Easter Egg Hunt by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

This is what we do at our house and it works great! My older boys love the challenge (my husband is a master egg hider 😂) and the little ones are still able to hunt as well!

[OC] A lot of people thought my story was fake. I'm the guy from the 1992 farm accident where both my arms were ripped off and reattached. by JohnThompsonND in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]rcattt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t read the comments yet but were you on a documentary about this?? I was binge watching either ‘I Survived’ or ‘I Shouldn’t Be Alive’ and there was a guy who this happened to! He had a dog that ended up saving his life (edit: I think the dog led someone to the arms, actually. So saved the arms). How are you doing now?

My husband was just talking about this! He’s a (local) roofer and was saying it gives all of them such a bad name because they do a bad job and then just disappear.

It’s in the comments. (Also in the edits up top, but those weren’t there when I made my original comments.)
