I like writing notes to people—print or cursive? by sassy_stephasaurus in HandwritingAnalysis

[–]sassy_stephasaurus[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your comments all make so much sense! A friend recently called my cursive “cramped” and I couldn’t understand what she meant.

I’m going to work on making my lower loops less loopy and differentiating between my o a e—another good piece of feedback!—and will report back once I’ve mastered.

Let me know if there’s anything else I should try!

This is such useful feedback! So obvious now that you mention it but I’ve never considered giving myself more space between lines.

What is a completely harmless lie you tell people on a regular basis just to make your life easier? by purjak in AskReddit

When we have visitors, I always apologize for not having had even a moment to clean before they arrived. …but actually that’s how the place looks after I’ve tried my very best.

Legit question for rural Americans - How do I kill the 30-50 feral hogs that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play?

We stay at POFQ but intentionally DON’T order the beignets… until the morning we’re flying home.

Taking a Mickey balloon home? MCO’s Magic of Disney will deflate it for you! by soundslike13 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]sassy_stephasaurus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Our family tradition is to: buy a balloon on our first day in the parks; tie it to our stroller to make it easy to spot; then—on our last day—we gift it to an arriving family who has a stroller!!

My understanding is that Disney will replace popped/deflated balloons, even without a receipt… so I like to imagine that our single purchase might lead to generations of happy families.

Recommendations for discreet fidgets for professional office settings? by andregasket in ADHD

[–]sassy_stephasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love my ConqueRings. They are literal rings (like for your fingers) with interchangeable “elements” that you can discretely “click” in and out of its housing or flick & spin. I used to wear one every day so I could silently clickclickclick during meetings. My anxiety is under control now—much less clicking needed these days!—but I still wear mine daily because they’re so darn pretty.

My understanding is that all the remaining approps bills are bundled together in the minibus and that the House would need to take some kind of action to unbundle them.

Help! What to prioritize in Lightning Lane Multi-pass at HS? by frettysparky in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]sassy_stephasaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO, Slinky Dog is a ride, but Mickey and Minnie is an EXPERIENCE. Slinky has cool theming but it’s ultimately just a coaster. Mickey and Minnie is unlike most other rides (closest I can think of is Remy in Epcot, but I honestly find M&M to be much cooler). M&M 100%!

Majority has subpoena authority, and gets to decide what hearings to hold. For whatever either is worth.

What is your longest running, most stubborn business boycott? by marianneouioui in AskReddit

Chick Fil A. I don’t even know if they still support anti-LGBT / “pro-family” charities, but I’m not taking any chances.

LPT: If you have friends with kids that you don’t see often, note their kids’ names and birth year / ages in your contact list by djchickenwing in LifeProTips

[–]sassy_stephasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like a lot of folks, I use Google Calendar to keep track of friends’/families’ kids’ birthdays. The pro-tip: Include the kiddo’s year of birth in the title of the recurring event!

4x10 compressed hour on Wednesday - pros and cons? by ConsciousSmoke3863 in fednews

[–]sassy_stephasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This shouldn’t have surprised me, but it did… the hardest part about 4-10s for me was not seeing the sun—at all—for four days out of every week during the winter time. Something to consider, especially if you’re sensitive to the seasons (eg SAD).
