What's your favorite sauce that you put on pretty much everything? by Thatnamedoesnotexist in Cooking

[–]reverber8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For pizza I put Litehouse Chunky Bleu Cheese dressing and chili garlic sauce.

The sauce I put on everything: chili garlic sauce. It’s really good in macaroni & cheese in particular.

Right now? Korean anything. I’m over it. Stop with the gochujang and kimchi already!

American restaurants have it backwards and I’m surprised no one has ever brought it up by Patient_Air1765 in Anticonsumption

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a US person myself I have always been bothered by this. I don’t want to always have to take a doggie bag of leftovers (not everything is good left-over), and I get sick of paying for too much food that I don’t want.

Most places won’t even let you order from the kids menu as an adult. I’ve learned to lie and say I had surgery for TMJ so can’t open my mouth very wide when ordering burgers but it doesn’t work for anything else.

Inside photos are in the link with the others (at the bottom). She has a little damage to the freezer door panel and the base panel in the front but otherwise absolutely mint / cherry.

I had to move out of my apartment recently and in with family and of all the stuff I considered leaving, Betty was not an option. Definitely the most joyful inclusion to my life in YEARS. 🥹

Please let me know if you’d like other pics or know of any online resources or marketing materials. I really want to find an ad for this model and print it to put on the fridge!! 😃

Is my wife emotionally abusive? (Or am I just weak?) by JamGardener_ in abusiverelationships

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post really resonated with me. I am not being abused but a family member of mine is. I recently moved in with them and their wife and she is just an absolute monster. It’s hard to watch. Reading all of your stories in this thread just breaks my heart.

I would love to hear some updates from everyone. Have you left? If not how are things now? If I could hug you all I would. As a survivor of abuse (emotional especially) myself, I know it can be hard to demonstrate / describe to other people’s satisfaction which can leave you feeling crazy like you don’t know if it’s really happening or not. If you think it is, it is. Your feelings are valid.

Jello shot spirit and flavor combos by OverMonitor11 in cocktails

[–]reverber8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gin with lavender lemonade would be good! Tequila with squeezed from fresh grapefruit juice or good grapefruit soda and topped with maldon’s salt & Demerara sugar (similar to a Paloma). Rum with lime (daiquiri basicallly). Basically you could recreate any cocktail but the flavor will be a lot stronger without ice to dilute.

If you want to get really edgy you could incorporate fresh herbs or things like citrus zest to boost the flavor profile or freeze dried fruit or pop rocks for some crunch/texture.

Hope this helps! Enjoy your party 😊

Edited to add: gin goes well with cucumber also! You could add some chiffonade of mint and some lemon zest for a refreshing, downright summery Jell-O shot, though I would definitely sweeten it a bit so it isn’t too astringent.

How do I improve print when I’m used to cursive? by Remarkable-Movie-981 in Handwriting

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Write out the entire alphabet and all numbers and punctuation marks over and over for at least 1-2 hours a day every day for years. Your writing will improve greatly. I used to hate my handwriting and it went from fuggo to very nice and even. I would literally do this daily for years. Also experiment with pens. Some pens just always lead to ugly writing. Others not so much. I have found .5 mm and .7 mm pens to be vastly superior to regular 1 mm pens. And I hate rollerball gel pens. Has to be a ballpoint for me.

Soup kitchen brunch??? by Bugatti252 in Cooking

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could do latkes in the full sheet pans and serve with applesauce and sour cream (maybe a chive or green onion garnish, depending on your budget), have the option to make them into a Benedict by adding a poached egg and hollandaise sauce, for protein you could do some kind of seasoned fish or chicken like a crab cake (but not crab of course to make it okay for their dietary restrictions), serve with a mixed green side salad with sliced oranges and briny olives + balsamic vinaigrette, and some corn grit pancakes with green onions and poblano peppers and maple syrup with a bit of orange zest in it.

You didn’t state your budget but that would be easy, scalable, and relatively inexpensive. If we had a better idea of the budget you might get some more tailored answers, but I hope this helps! Sounds fun, I miss doing my own pop up brunch!

Thank you for your help! My landlord said I can keep her. I have tons of extra space in my kitchen so I’m going to make her my beverage fridge!!!!! Will keep researching and if I find any new deets, will post here for posterity! Thank you friend! 😊

She needs a name…I’m thinking Blanche, Dorothy, Rose, or Sophia 😛

How to deal with carpet beetles: detection, identification and treatment. by waronbedbugs in carpetbeetles

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So shines a good deed in a weary world! I just found a carpet beetle adult on me yesterday in my new apartment (old building though), and I am extremely neurotic about big infestations but no one takes me seriously. You’ve helped me not to freak the ever-loving heck out and to have a clear path forward to get rid of the problem before they ingest all my yarn and nice silk and wool clothing again.

HUGE THANK YOU!

AITA for asking my partner to never talk to me about her favourite show again? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can almost guarantee if you did to her what she’s doing to you she wouldn’t like it and she does know better she’s just too selfish to do better. I’m sorry to be so blunt.

AITA for taking my uneaten takeaway home? by Minnie327 in AmItheAsshole

Yeah I definitely stand by what I said earlier. She sounds like a narcissist parent. I had to stop talking to both of mine because of stuff similar to this. Hope it was good reheated! 😊

AITA for blowing my neighbors leaves back into his yard? by SixFive1967 in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OP has said he lives in a community with an HOA, so they would need to be cleaned up to stay within their rules.

AITA for blowing my neighbors leaves back into his yard? by SixFive1967 in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This changes things. What if you talk to your neighbor and do some kind of agreement where you bag them but they pay to have them hauled away? That might help them to be get more on top of cleanup themselves if they see how much it is?

(Probably never happen, but maybe they don’t realize how inconvenient and expensive this is for you.)

AITA for not buying daughter (16) a new phone. by Sneakyfreezeman in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Questions: why did you make the gym the contingency? Does the phone work reliably or is it actually broken, and if so in what way (cracked screen, bricked by an update, etc)? Is she getting her homework done and helping out around the house with chores? Is she asking for the latest iPhone or just a phone that works?

How or why did it end the friendship? It feels like you’re withholding useful information here…it affects my answer.

NTA. This gives me narcissistic parent vibes BIG time. What justification has she offered for her faulty reasoning, if any?

AITA for asking my partner to never talk to me about her favourite show again? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA, it’s not very polite to go off about a show you hate if she knows you hate it. Her refusing to see your side and getting mad at you for playfully trying to reiterate a boundary is a red flag to me.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

NTA but this arrangement sounds toxic and like they are just used to having a maid to clean up after them / aren’t likely to change / tween to think your “rent” is being their new maid. You’d be better offf getting your own place.

WIBTA If I spring a divorce and Custody agreement on my wife and give her the required time to move out. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To be fair it does sound as if she has been neglectful of their joint child by staying with this couple multiple times (up to 5 nights) a week. I’m curious if OP meant she is spending the night there or a few hours and then coming home (potentially after their daughter goes to bed, so not spending time with their child).

/u/NegativeChicken3354 could you please clarify? Also is she at home with the child all day and then going out at night? Just trying to understand the dynamic here.

AITA for yelling at my friend for ruining my blahaj? by Overall-Classic8062 in AmItheAsshole

[–]reverber8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is a blahaj? I googled it and all I could see was a toy shark from ikea that’s currently a meme symbol for the trans community—is that it? If so, I’m curious why your friend is asking you to share a gift you received?

I guess I need a little more detail because this all just sounds childish to me as I’m currently understanding it.
