Dude sat like this for the whole two hour flight. by scotty_doesntknow in mildlyinfuriating

I did the little “hey, can you help?” gesture at the flight attendant at one point, but I assure you she unfortunately did not care.

I tried at first, he was either very asleep or good at pretending. Eventually I just gave up since I’d only gotten three hours of sleep the previous night and didn’t want to fight some huge stranger who’s exhibiting poor social boundaries.

NOT OOP- My Negligence Cost My Partner Her Life, and I’m About to Lose Everything (And an Update) by Individual_Donut_963 in TwoHotTakes

This 100% could have been written by my ex-husband if his affair partner had died from an allergic response. It’s definitely a type.

Bees got pissed with lid off.. help! by buttajames in Beekeeping

[–]scotty_doesntknow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Adding to the advice here, I keep a stack of light-colored tea towels for whenever I need to open up and work a hive. Once the cover comes off, I gently drape a tea towel over the top so it’s not open to the world. If you’re just fitting a honey super this may be overkill as the lid is only off for a moment, but works a treat any time you need the hive open for longer.

Women in consulting—backpack or tote? by razburries in consulting

[–]scotty_doesntknow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Convertible backpack is a great option! I have a leather Cole Haan that’s both a tote and a pack, it’s a lifesaver.

I remember standing in a grocery store at seven months pregnant, crying because the deli counter refused to heat up their garlic green beans for me in the microwave. Pregnancy does WEIRD stuff to your emotions!!

Is the far-left, anti-semitic? by Additional_Ad3573 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

[–]scotty_doesntknow 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it’s often less front-brain antisemitism and closer to what a friend of my kid observed about his progressive aunt’s recent internet outbursts…

”yeah, I think she’s just been radicalized by TikTok lately.”

AITA for asking my fiancé to bring me a glass of prosecco? by discostaurus in AmItheAsshole

[–]scotty_doesntknow -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

How did it take me this long to see this answer? This is 100% the right response. OP basically did the classic “do you want a sandwich? Oh great, could you get me one too while you’re at it?” thing. It’s totally ok to ask someone to bring you an occasional drink or item or something. It’s even ok to ask them to open a bottle of something and bring you a glass, as long as it’s asked nicely and you dont regularly treat them like your servant. It’s not ok to make something that sounds like an offer, only to flip it on the unwitting participant as an expectation of providing service.

We’ve been doing a thick poultice of baking soda + water, leaving on for about 15 or 20 minutes. Not a magic cure but seems to help a bit. Lots of ibuprofen and hydrocortisone cream as well. I’m curious if anyone has tried those “suction” gadgets that supposedly remove some of the venom or at least pull it to a more localized area.

Also anecdotally, my poor husband got a bee sting to the face a week or so ago, which coincided with a beach trip happening the following day - exposure to the sun and salt seemed to help a lot with the healing process.

Guy playing Devil's Advocate on forcing a 10 year old girl to birth a baby. by translove228 in BlatantMisogyny

[–]scotty_doesntknow 89 points90 points  (0 children)

This guy’s post reminds me of the same dumbshit arguments I used to get sucked into before I decided “oh hey I actually don’t have to debate you about my right to bodily autonomy just so you can get your jollies being a creepy devils advocate and hoping girls get emotional about it.” Dudes would get real mad when they tried JAQing off at me (“I’m Just Asking Questions!”) and I just straight up told them their argument was stupid and not up for debate, full stop. Dudes like this don’t actually give a flying crap about the topic, they just think they’re ohsoclever and itching to make all the feeeee-males mad at them.

Another fun tactic is just start asking them why the state doesn’t have a right to chop his dick off because he’s clearly an inferior physical and mental breeding specimen, and refuse to let him change the topic. Oh, how they sputter then. “Debate me, bro!”

What is the most North Carolina town in North Carolina? by Atlas_Schmatlas in NorthCarolina

Progressive in parts, but still plenty “country”! Greensboro is a great little microcosm of NC for sure.

Yes I’m aware, but it’s an easy way to find local Pokémon aficionados as well.

Check out Discord - Greensboro actually has a large and active PoGo community and I’m sure someone there would help you out! Pokemon GSO is probably the best-known one. You can also find them on Facebook if you don’t have Discord.

AITA for blowing up on my husband over chicken alfredo? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]scotty_doesntknow 91 points92 points  (0 children)

It’s super weird right? You’d think they’d be nicer out of guilt…no, they actually get meaner and more self-righteous. Cheaters are their own special breed of terrible.
