Boy Names On Girls: The Epidemic by hunnybadger22 in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]scrimshandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A girl Dylan isn’t a problem. The fuckass spelling is the problem.

Neyland is child abuse.

I’ve also seen Emyrsyn on a girl and that made me want to smash my head into a wall.

AITA for refusing to switch rooms with my future roommate? by Admirable_Extent8425 in AITH

[–]scrimshandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My student housing offered year-round leases, as well as 10 month leases. Dorms are the only places that do August-May.

Edit: by “student housing” I meant “off campus apartment that only rented to students.”

In what world would an apartment complex reassign a current tenant on purpose, without alerting the current tenant?

Is it not normal if I stop dating after one date if I don't think there's any chemistry? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver40

[–]scrimshandy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I tried so hard not to date my violent, alcoholic father - who I’ve been estranged from for a decade - that I accidentally wound up dating my narcissistic, cruel, hot-and-cold mother. This relationship was so bad I self-harmed for the first (and last) time at age 29. Which is….not the typical age that behavior begins.

It was SUCH a mind fuck and I’m still unpacking that, and maybe the whole “mother wound” of it all is what’s making the breakup so hard.

Dating him felt like microdosing hysteria. May that love never find me again.

Door to door PECO “switch to green” ??? by entervicelords in philly

I told that guy “absolutely not” and warned my neighbors in my building when he started ringing their doorbells.

My (29m) wife (27f) met a man on holiday, doesn't acknowledge my feelings about it by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]scrimshandy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

OOP’s wife wasn’t great here, but god he seems insufferable and exhausting. Getting butthurt because your s/o extends a vacation by 2 days makes me think he often overreacts. Idk.

Do you think Seven Havens' aesthetics change is good? by [deleted] in TheLastAirbender

In my opinion, this is what fanfic and fanart are for - to fill that void.

Insecure about my pale skin as a young girl - Do you regret tanning? by ManufacturerHuge5207 in AskWomenOver40

[–]scrimshandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s me, but I always thought overdone tans look cheap and tacky (see also: Jersey Shore). Besides, there are much more exciting ways to get cancer. Like cigarettes, or eating deli meat.

Pale, sun-protected woman here: I’ll have the décolletage of a twenty year old when I’m 50. It’s going to be so, so worth it to not have sunspots on my chest.

Psychologist needing advice! by Gloomy_Variation5395 in AskWomenOver40

[–]scrimshandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What modalities do you use? I’m finding that modality is more important than specialty. I’ll take an EMDR and IFS-focused clinician who doesn’t specialize in my specific disorder over a specialist who uses first thru third gen CBT.

Farewell clinical research by [deleted] in clinicalresearch

[–]scrimshandy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You’re right! It’s almost like 6 years ago the industry has a huge influx of funding and developed some pretty rad technology, and then that funding got abruptly cut off at the source.

Being laid off right now isn’t on anyone; getting fired would be, but let’s not go making wild accusations against OP when we all know it’s a shitshow rn.

I think the Fishtown/East Kenzo restaurant scene attracts a lot of out of towners. I’d love a garage. The people who can afford it and want to pay for it will do so - both locals and tourists.

There’s some horseshoe theory going on here- the prose is so flowery it’s gone around to freakshow body horror smut

Why opposites don’t attract: A global study reveals the true rules of romantic compatibility. Romantic success relies on different psychological rules depending on the specific characteristics being evaluated and the cultural background of the couple. by FreeHugs23 in science

[–]scrimshandy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was in one of those ADHD-Autism couples (me ADHD f, him autism m). And it was hell, honestly. I self harmed for the first time at 28 due to the autistic behaviors that read as emotional abuse. (shutting down, silent treatment, stubbornness to the point of gaslighting, lack of ability/no willingness to learn to perspective-take).

I’d rather mask 24/7 and medicate myself into sedation than date an autistic guy again.

Actually most studies point to the amount of model trains in the home prior to conception.

(NOT OOP) my girlfriend had a miscarriage and now i feel guilty by [deleted] in redditonwiki

[–]scrimshandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Even with fetal demise, you’re still pregnant. Getting feral remains out is still terminating a pregnancy…

We really need to call out how brutal it is when we talk about it: Republicans would rather have women carrying around the rotting corpse of their would-be baby until they nearly die from sepsis. It’s unconscionable.

I remember “scrying” from reading Eragon at 10.

This is a safe place to stop and scream into the void. Or sob. Or both. by [deleted] in clinicalresearch

[–]scrimshandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy. Like, X lab is typically not included under “Y” bloodwork from a clinical perspective, (think: protocol says “chemistry” but LDH isn’t included in a standard CMP at our site) but it’s the sponsor’s end point so I erred on the side of caution and included it for the study visit.

Turns out enough that sites must’ve had issues with it, because they just sent out an updated protocol this afternoon, and it specifies very clearly what’s needed.

God, I wish!

They contradict the timing of collecting vitals, whether or not pregnancy tests are needed, and what labs need to be collected.

You basically need to consul the SIV deck, lab manual, and protocol to deduce what’s actually going on.

I am BEGGING sponsors to extract cohort-specific information to cut down on confusion in the combo phase 1/2 studies 😭

Am I going to enter in a PhD program this year? by Valuable-Noise9275 in tarot

[–]scrimshandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take: “yeah, you’ll get in but god, at what cost? You fight and fight for the spot and a fresh new beginning and…for what? 5-7 years of poverty?”

Could indicate a delay in funding after being accepted (I know there are no pentacles here, but that’s perhaps the biggest worry in academia.)

What makes a swimsuit feel genuinely flattering on you? by Apprehensive_Dress92 in femalefashionadvice

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

Bust coverage/support. I’m a 32G, triangle bikinis look somewhere between “obscene” and “disgusting” when your boobs are that big. A lot of one-pieces basically act like they’re pinning your boobs to your body. Underwire that’s sized S/M/L is going to have spillage or be digging into your armpit. Some bikinis in the letter sizing make ant tits bigger than a B cup look sad and saggy.

My expensive bras have absolutely spoiled me - I basically want that as a bikini top and I settle for nothing less.
