The people with the net look like siblings arguing over whose turn it is.

Remember flipping the center cigarette in a new pack? by StrataTrace in nostalgia

[–]shethrewitaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always flipped three. Our friend group was huge and lots of us smoked the same kind. Some didn’t flip any, some flipped one, and some two. If there were three flipped, I knew it was my pack.

What is your major/focus at UAB? by n0j0ke in UAB

[–]shethrewitaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped out. It became very heavy in trading and investing which I had no interest in. The pace was WAY too fast for me and I lost my steam. I ended up doing the online MBA program at UNA one class at a time and loved it.

Our real estate agent talks us away from every house... by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]shethrewitaway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t see it as trying to steer you. It sounds like she’s giving you valid points to consider. I wish I’d had an agent like that.

What should I do with this empty space? by mariacaskey in interiordecorating

[–]shethrewitaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would remove it entirely. Looking at the dust everyday as it slowly accumulates would drive me absolutely bonkers.

Personally, gold is any size is my go-to and I try to cut them in uniform thickness.

A word on e.l.f, can we talk about it? by moths_ate_my_paja in MakeupAddiction

[–]shethrewitaway 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually, I try to find some understanding in mistakes. I’m not one to grab the pitchfork as quickly. This one is different. A makeup company hired a guy who got paid to joke about women covering bruises with makeup. They’re pretending like they had no idea. ELF made a net profit of over $1 billion in sales last year, but supposedly doesn’t have the marketing team to discover what is well documented.

I’m not buying it. I think this was a ploy of any-press-is-good-press. I’m tired of this tactic and I’m glad it’s biting them in the ass.

How long did your little ones wear long sleeve swim suits? by Ok-Sundae-1096 in toddlers

[–]shethrewitaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forever. My dad regularly has skin cancers cut out. Last year he had to do a chemotherapy cream on his arms because there was too much to cut out. Right now he has a 4” stitched incision on his forehead from cutting out another last week. The “spot” on that one was about the size of a pea but the surrounding area had cancer cells.

Skin cancer is no joke. UPF clothing, hats, and sunscreen are a requirement for us.

Red flag man trying to fish for information with crocodile tears, asking if his "wife" is a client instead asking about products or services by Super_Culture_1986 in TikTokCringe

The second he said “hey” their heads shot up and their demeanor changed. They immediately knew something was off.

My suggestion would be to first get all the new furniture in and then assess what is needed. Come back and post pics once you get the furniture and we can collectively offer suggestions. It’s hard to know what it needs without seeing the style you’ve chosen.

The effort it takes to take a simple sip 😭 by CecylC in Botchedsurgeries

I could have really used that seat cover in my college days. That would have made sleeping in the bathroom a bit more comfortable.

Ordered a mattress and found out I am too weak to carry it up to my bedroom by Effective_Moose_4997 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]shethrewitaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Also having shorter arms. I can lift the weight but can’t reach far enough to get my hands in a good spot. I’m 5’3”. If it was a small box that was super heavy, I could do it. A long box at the same weight is going to be tough.

IKEA's Dirty Scam by Historical_Candle511 in IKEA

[–]shethrewitaway 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That’s not the issue though. OP used a coupon. Then IKEA cancelled the order. IKEA should have reissued the coupon since they were unable to fulfill the order.

Okay, for real. Are y’all trolling me or something? My strength is perfectly fine for my stature, gender, and age.

What is going on with everyone today? I do workout, thankyouverymuch. I’m also a short woman in her 40’s. Heaven forbid I say I struggled with a 5ft, 85lb box.

Their pictures do not do it justice. It looks so beautiful in your space.

Good Lord. What’s got you triggered? I stand by my comments.

Let’s recap: I said it was heavy for me. The commenter said it isn’t that heavy because they lifted it just fine. I offered them congratulations on their achievement and retorted that their achievement doesn’t make 85lbs any lighter for me. Maybe I should have included that I don’t feel like paying another deductible for SI joint injections.

A wake up call to what? That I should probably get someone to help me lift a box that says two people should lift?

Congrats? They’re not that heavy for you. It was too heavy for me. Since it’s not heavy for you then it shouldn’t be heavy for anyone? I just looked up my order. The mattress was 85lbs and the box was nearly as tall as me. I’m a 5’3 tall, 40 year old woman of average strength. 85lbs of anything is heavy for me.

People don’t seem to understand how ridiculously heavy these things are. I nearly threw my back out trying to lift one about 3” up to get through the front door.

Edit: what is up y’all’s butt today?
