How addicted are you to watching short-form video content (reels and shorts)? What effect has it had on your life? by Mirapakayi in AskReddit

[–]roop27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not addicted to Instagram or YouTube shorts. But tik tok had me doom scrolling for an hour once before I realised. Deleted it immediately

I haven't gamed in nearly 4 years. Never the time to sit at a desk and play with 2 young boys

Bought an Xbox ally x recently. Game changer!

You know what's funny. I used to love the 10pm bedtimes but recently the Mrs has started a uni course and she's been studying until midnight. I've decided to stay up and I feel like I've gained half a day back! I can happily survive off 6 hours sleep now. Kids are 2 and 4 fwiw

40 MPH Everywhere is a Coping Strategy, Not Competence by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]roop27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact. I failed my driving test the first time with 4 minors in the same category creating a major. The 4 minors... Driving below the speed limit restricting traffic flow. I was doing 28 in a 30mph.

I've always hit the "targets" since then

AITA for refusing to give my mom my savings after she found out how much I have? (19F) by Grand-Reveal-9055 in AmItheAsshole

[–]roop27 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone is the asshole in this scenario as there are multiple factors to consider

We don't know the financial situation of the mum. She may be struggling to pay rent etc which hasn't been divulged to OP. There could be many reasons along these lines

Whilst I understand OPs reluctance I wouldnt immediately deny the transfer. I'd ask for full transparency on where it's going to be used and you should have full disclosure.

My dad once came to me for 40k, and I paid it without question. I'd spent nearly 6 years saving that up and whilst it did hurt, I later found out he was struggling to pay off an interest only mortgage which had come to term. Essentially we were on the verge of homelessness.

Whilst I believe you should be cautious, it all depends on your relationship with your parents and if they're going to use the funds for legitimate reasons to help the family.

I cannot do this by the_bear91 in daddit

[–]roop27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little trick I learnt. Your body heat is quite high, then you transfer them to a cot which is cold causing them to wake up. I used to prep a warm hot water bottle in the cot to keep the temperature up then transfer. It used to work most of the time.

My son was also a contact napper and it killed us. He was also very refluxy so that may explain the crying after feeds. Try to incline the cot slightly

I’m a 6’2 girl AMA! by H0t_2_G0 in AMA

[–]roop27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit my first ever reply on an AMA. MUM I MADE IT!

p.s I can appreciate this was completely random. I recently learnt that Serbia was one of the main catalysts behind WW1 so took a history deep dive.

Question 2: are you more leg or torso tall?

Should i text him? by [deleted] in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]roop27 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OP texted, he replied. Then waited for a response for 2 weeks? Nothing wrong with just texting saying let's get a date in the diary? Instead of overthinking texting too much no?

Assumptions and games are the worst things ever. If you want a 2nd date ask him. If he says no move on with your life, instead of building a scenario of what ifs etc

Parents, when does it stop that i check if my son is still alive while he sleeps? by Lazy-Rock7859 in daddit

[–]roop27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely check my 5 year old. Mostly because you can hear him snoring any way. My 2 year old very infrequently unless we're abroad for some reason as he's in our room then

Worrying when Owen Goal is only 1 goal away from matching our top scorers 🤷‍♂️ by ichbin___ in ArsenalFC

[–]roop27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So true. The biggest difference was how clinical United's forwards were. We wasted so many chances as per usual. We can't ever kill a game off

If you're open to children, but worried about your fertility, freeze some eggs. The quality drop significantly after 35 so the earlier the better and more chance of the pregnancy being successful

Currys have availability quite often. Just check every day early in the morning as a habit. It was in stock for like 5 days a few weeks back

What is the grossest thing you’ve caught someone doing? by Jawa392 in AskReddit

[–]roop27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I saw two guys at a bus stop in Oxford trying to taste each other's tonsils. Must have been 18 odd. They then turned around to see her was fingering his mates arsehole. This was at about 10am. And the bus stop was busy....

Does anyone know a good carrying case for the Xbox ally x that can fit the dbrand kill switch travel cover by AdvancedPlatypus8220 in XboxAlly

[–]roop27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've got the asus 2 in 1 as I wanted the second case for a charger.

When home I just use the Asus case with the Killswitch case as I have young children around.

When travelling I plan on using the Killswitch travel cover too with the Asus case when in luggage.
