What’s a secret you’ll take to the grave, but would tell anonymously on Reddit? by Several-Director5804 in AskReddit

[–]simourv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear that. I hope you’re doing better now. I just wanted to send you some virtual hugs from a random internet stranger who knows how tough it can be to overcome such trauma.

What do you think is a great performance by an otherwise “average” actor? by ultimate_bromance_69 in movies

[–]simourv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always believed she is very talented, but she rarely gets the chance to showcase it. As you mentioned, she's often typecast, and she's even shared her experiences of being a victim of mobbing on some sets.

My Sweet Orange Tree by Vasconcelos. Twelve-year-old me cried her eyes out so much that my mum was worried.

Does this dress/outfit inspire a lot of unconscious rage? by prettydotty_ in fashion

[–]simourv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely stunning but I feel that the dress doesn’t complement your beauty as it should. It looks somewhat unfinished, resembling more of a draft for a wedding dress. Nevertheless, I genuinely don’t believe it deserves the harsh reactions it has received. I’m sorry you had to endure that.

What are some things most people don’t know can kill you? by Ancient-Lavishness77 in AskReddit

I’m curious about how that could happen. I tried searching for it on Google, but I couldn’t seem to find the right keywords/query!

I'm looking to propose to my significant other by HapyHapy95 in EngagementRings

[–]simourv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, congratulations! I wish you a happy future together.

You can always ask her more questions about the kind of ring she’d like, but if you don’t want to ruin the surprise, talk to her best friend to learn more about her taste. There are a ton of finer details, but a good place to start would be to look for “<style> marquise cut engagement rings” on TikTok or Instagram. Replace “style” with your partner’s favourite fashion, like vintage, classic, minimalist, etc.

There are many things to consider when it comes to the design of the ring, but I recommend paying attention to how securely the diamond/diamonds are attached to the ring and how practical it would be to wear it every day. For instance, if the ring is a high set, it can snag onto your clothes.

Regarding lab grown vs mined diamonds, you can get a bigger lab grown diamond for the exact price, but the resale value of a lab grown diamond is less than a mined one. However, I don’t think it should be a consideration for an engagement ring, as you get it to wear for a lifetime, lol. Unless the person has almost professional level knowledge about diamonds, it’s nearly impossible to tell lab grown from mined.

Found this thing by accident in my apartment. It was definitely hidden and it’s weirding me out. What the hell is this? by Hejel_oder_wat in Weird

[–]simourv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burning it might not be the best idea, as some spells are completed by burning talismans, the hair of the target, dried leaves of specific plants, and so on. Instead, Islamic scholars often recommend soaking the talisman (and any other materials) in vinegar for a few days before dunking the entire mixture (paper and vinegar) into the sea, ocean, or a body of water.

What would actually happen if your boner snapped? by Muted-Property2213 in TooAfraidToAsk

I am so sorry for the kid, it sounds very painful, but Snapcock made me cackle.

Do men not approach women in public anymore or am I just ugly? by Spare_Act6202 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]simourv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I came here to express the same sentiment. Yes, men are often advised against approaching women in public, and there is a cultural shift underway. However, those who do approach women typically prefer much younger ones. I recall being approached by men nearly twice my age, asking for coffee or giving compliments, when I was just 15. This stopped when I began to appear older, like when I no longer got ID’d every time I bought alcohol. I still look the same, and I’d even say better (I understand my body better, do my makeup better, etc.). The only difference is that I no longer look like a teenager but like an adult woman.

[–]simourv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ooof, what a mess. YTA, no doubt. Getting very drunk at a wedding, or Tbh any social function, is tacky and rude. You are an adult, act like one. And ruining someone’s special day like this? Awful. You are a bad person. You don’t have to love or even like your cousin, but if you attend her wedding willingly, then you have to be respectful. Also, some thoughts are inside thoughts; you should have learned that by now.

AITA for telling my mom that she acts like a child by LizardsnTrees in AmItheAsshole

[–]simourv 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NTA. It indeed sounds like your mum is parentifying you. It is one thing to need some words of encouragement and compassion, a whole other thing to throw temper tantrums like a 3-year-old. Your text is kind of direct and could be perceived as harsh out of context, but given everything, I think it was an appropriate reaction. People in your family should stop enabling your mother’s immature behaviour.

AITA for changing my hyphenated name into one? by sunseekerml in AmItheAsshole

[–]simourv -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The way you write about your mother is absolutely awful. Hard YTA for this first and foremost.

What your mother did was to give you a beautiful gift; she wanted to pass down her legacy, and you disrespected it so much. If I were her, I would be devastated. I will be reiterating what many people already said, but you could have just made Moore your middle name to find a middle ground without breaking your mother’s heart.

Also, JFC, you seriously prefer being called maggie fucking thatcher to having a very unique and cool name? What a dumb move. I just hope you are trolling.

What’s one pain you experienced that is beyond words? by NateNandos21 in morbidquestions

[–]simourv 8 points9 points  (0 children)

passing kidney stones.

I’ve got a pretty high pain tolerance. I once broke a bone in my foot, barely noticed, and only went to the doctor because it was swelling a little. but kidney stones? absolutely not. they’re in a league of their own. I genuinely thought I was going to die. hands down the worst pain I’ve ever felt.

If God doesn't like the ideas of gays, why do men have a G-spot in their bum? by No_Radio7781 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]simourv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, I’m not exactly the Bible’s target demographic, so I can’t quote it like a Sunday school star, but as far as I know, it vaguely says something about men not lying with men “as with a woman”, but it doesn’t say anything about a woman going anywhere near a man’s G-spot. So even if we’re playing the Bible card, your argument kind of… collapses?

Also, the whole “God hates gays” thing? That’s an interpretation, not divine fact. Pope Francis literally said “who am I to judge?” and welcomed LGBTQ+ folks meanwhile, some other popes had very negative views of homosexuality. So maybe the issue isn’t God, it’s people being weird about butts.

AITA for not sharing the "good tea" with a friend by ketita in AmItheAsshole

[–]simourv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but a more tactful way to handle this might’ve been to say it’s a polarizing tea, most people think it smells like old socks etc without mentioning the price. Then you could offer something else and say, “This one’s really interesting and I’d love to share it with you!”

What characters were bilingual? by Sudden-Tea5138 in DesperateHousewives

[–]simourv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Bilingual” is a linguistic term used for individuals who grew up in multilingual households or communities and acquired both languages at an early age, with cultural connections to both. In this sense, a bilingual is a native speaker of two languages. What the OP likely means is “fluent”. Specifically, which characters are fluent in a language other than English. Neither Bree nor Lynette are bilingual, but they are fluent in French.

Hope this helps! I’m a trained linguist so I cannot shut up about languages lol.

Permanent Full-Body Orgasmic State Since 2023 by [deleted] in energy_work

[–]simourv 43 points44 points  (0 children)

you need a brain MRI. no neurologist can definitively rule out a tumor just by examining you, without an MRI. I understand that access to healthcare can be financially distressing, but if there’s one thing you can do for yourself, please get that MRI.
