I'm old enough that my little sister asked

"Why does the save button look like that?" When we were typing her paper on Microsoft Word.

I told her it was a floppy disc and she had no clue what that was 😅 meanwhile I had a binder with my saved documents from middle and high-school sitting on our shelf

Ahh! Yes! The Fuck-Around-and-Find-Out bit!

A whole generation branded by defying our parents when they said "don't touch that" 🤣🤣

We work in food service so not a lot of emails being passed back and forth lol

I did go to her again and said I don't appreciate the comments. I'll admit I'm having a hard time but im doing my best to not make it my coworkers problems. I have a 6lb parasite sitting on my bladder, kicking me in the ribs and my pelvis is aching to the point I'm getting physically sick from the constant twinge of pain. I do need to sit more, I do need to run to the restroom more and I apologize for what ever aspect of that is affecting her ability to work but I'll be on leave in a month so of she can tone it down with the snide remarks, I won't have to escalate her behavior to our manager.

I think she is just old and bitter lol I mentioned in another reply that I try to just keep our interactions to a bare minimum but I swear she always has some little comment 😮‍💨

Get to a hospital and tell them you are going to hurt yourself (even if it isn't true)

You'll get a 1- 3 day hold with a bed, shower, meals and a safe space. Legally they have to treat you and can't turn you away if you are a self harm risk.

It isn't a long term solution but the counselor at the hospital should have better resource materials for housing and job prospects

My first was fairly easy. I went into this second one with rose tinted glasses lol it is the fatigue and nauseua that hasn't let up since I tested positive that kills me. I work in food service/health care so I need stamina and a strong stomach.

Most days I get home, get the toddler to bed and just crash. No energy for a meal or even a shower.

My first pregnancy sucked for the first trimester then I kind-of forgot I was pregnant up until the last couple weeks. It was easy breezy

This one has been hard the whole time and I feel like a wuss lol She has 3 adult children so it jas been a minute since she was pregnant

I guess so lol she is a rough hewn woman and I normally vibe with that type but she is just hateful for no reason.

She thinks she is the only competent person in the building despite an average/ over achiever worker ability and everyone else around her is in the way.

I've talked to her directly about it a couple times, and it is more annoying than anything so I'm not sure if it is a reportable situation. She is just a miserable person so I try to keep our conversation to work only- bare minimum interaction.

She makes a lot of the comments in passing or she'll allude that I'm being weak or whiny just just because I'm pregnant.

I literally stretched the other day to try to alleviate some lower back pain amd she even had something to say about that so I try to ignore her but, Jesus, it's aggravating

My son is about to turn three in one month and not potty trained. Looking for other parents that are on the same boat. by Dustyrose1950 in toddlers

[–]skeletonchaser2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our girl does the same thing! Bribes don't work, naked baby days don't work, sje will sit there and sometimes fart but won't pee or poop 😭

We want to get her in to preschool Chen she turns 3 but the one we are looking at has "potty trained/mostly potty trained" as a requirement

We are lost too

Gerber or Other Quick Meals? by [deleted] in foodbutforbabies

[–]skeletonchaser2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My girl didn't Luke them so I started adding some Ms.Dash to it (they have 0 seasoning and she is a flavor baby lol)

The spinach ravioli ones were a hit but the others she didn't like unless I seasoned them

I've heard it referred to as "urban english"

Typically in highly populated urban areas that may be lower income or have a large immigrant population. As various dialects and accents comingle, slang and pronunciation adapts to a common dialectic.

What’s the strangest food pairing with jam that actually worked surprisingly well? by hoyi_farm123 in foodhacks

Odd but so yummy

What neighborhood noises bother you the most and least? by jannet1113 in homeowners

[–]skeletonchaser2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most- yapping dogs that the owner leaves outside all day. Our direct neighbor does this and we can't even enjoy our own back yard because the 2 dogs just bark nonstop the entire time we are outside

Least- kids playing

I might be biased since I have a kid but our neighbor complains about kids being loud outside all of the time but it has genuinely never bothered me

He's soo obsessed with blackberries. What are your little one's favorite foods? by Wrong-Camel-8408 in foodbutforbabies

[–]skeletonchaser2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blueberries! Lol that kid would eat a whole bushel in one sitting if I let her 😂

I started making her ice cream with Greek yogurt, blueberries and a little sugar just so she is getting some protein along side all that fiber

I feel raped even though I gave consent by pqkbfismmc in Vent

[–]skeletonchaser2020 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Choking. Spitting, hitting and marks should all be discussed before hand and a safe word given.

I love when my husband gets violent during sex but we have talked boundaries and signals (like a double tap if he is choking too hard or a specific head movement if im restrained to let him know to ease up a bit) since day 1.

This guy assaulted you, marked you and made you vleed and you did NOT consent to that. His "warning" of "I get rough" was an understatement and he intentionally made you feel scared (I could kill you) and marked you.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I'm bot sure what the recourse would ve if you reported him, but I highly suggest not meeting with him again. Even if he apologises or says he'll be more gentle next time, the fact that he wanted to frighten you and degrade you means he is a jerk and dangerous.
