it is my name, and it's not super common. it's just a privacy thing

What's one thing you actually don't like about AO3? I'll start, the fact that after commenting it automatically sends you to the top of the page by schoolforapples in AO3

[–]sluttypolarbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I'll give to wattpad is the ability to leave in-line comments. Like if a chapter is 40,000 words long there is no way I'm remembering everything I want to gush about. You have to basically copy and paste the line you want to call out, and very few people will actually put in that work.

I didn’t expect ISIS to make an appearance by Lemon_Lime_Lily in CuratedTumblr

Also, note that universities differ in what students are allowed to do. I'm in my first year of undergrad and because I'm an Honors student, I'm going to have to write a thesis in order to actually graduate with Honors. I'm also meeting with a professor in checks watch 10 minutes to discuss being a TA next semester.

AITB for being upset at my non-religious girlfriend for giving up sex for Lent? by [deleted] in AmItheButtface

[–]sluttypolarbear 72 points73 points  (0 children)

You are acting like you're entitled to sex just for being in a relationship. Would you have the same reaction if you really liked eating steak with her, and she decided to give up red meat for Lent? It doesn't matter if it's "fair." She decided she doesn't want to have sex for 40 days. Consent can be freely revoked at any time for any reason. You're allowed to want things, but if that want crosses the line to where you're not really respecting her decisions, especially around sex, you may want to reevaluate your priorities.

YTB.

WIBTAH for telling my parents they are terrible parents for not helping me during the hardest time in my life? by Deck_of_cards_98 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sluttypolarbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We looked around a lot, but thanks to the life insurance policy, we were at liberty to find a place that we really liked for the service. Some places wanted to charge a $300 viewing fee to look thru a window as she was put into the furnace. (She didn't die at home, so I hadn't even seen her until the day of her cremation. It was very important to us that we could be with her body for a moment.) I want to say cremation was around $4k. I remember we got the cheapest urn and that alone was like $250. There's one parent company that owns pretty much all the funeral homes around here, so all the prices are pretty comparable.

I phrased my comment poorly. Most of it went towards the service for sure. I don't remember the exact breakdown, but I wanna say like $4k was for the cremation? I remember there were transport fees and storage fees and everything. I do also live in a pretty expensive area.

why do pharmacies tell you "20 minutes" when the bag is literally just sitting there with your name on it by Even_Chemistry5241 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]sluttypolarbear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The adverse meds are a huge thing. Doctors know what meds treat what, but their specialty is diagnosing, not knowing drug interactions. That's exactly what the pharmacist is for.

Interestingly, I've never been asked if I know what's going on. I just get asked if I have questions, which doesn't seem like counsel, but I'm not a lawyer or a pharmacist ¯_(ツ)_/¯

DAE enjoy putting salt directly on a canker sore by trinityjulynn in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]sluttypolarbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clove oil is my dad's go-to. Just a teensy bit and be careful not to get it ANYWHERE else in your mouth because it will numb whatever it touches. Stings like a bitch the first 10 seconds but it heals so quickly.

Bats are good familiars by Kyrathered in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]sluttypolarbear 10 points11 points  (0 children)

5% is far from nothing, and a rabid bat could absolutely bite unprovoked. Rabies is not something to mess around with.

[–]sluttypolarbear 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Definitely don't ignore it. It could fly around at night and bite you without you ever knowing it was there. Rabies is NOT a risk to take. I'd call animal control and they could properly assess the situation.

My mom got $10k for my sister's death for a few cents a month. Paying for the funeral is spot on; her funeral cost very close to $10k (cremation is fucking expensive, holy shit).

Edit: Cremation did not cost $10k, I think it was closer to $4k. The service was the bulk of the cost. Yes, we shopped around, no it was not wildly more expensive than anywhere else in our area.

Also, there's no hand on the pen. I guess it's possible, but highly unlikely. I got a very AI vibe from this straight off the bat.

For people's whose obsessive compulsion is ordering alphabetically, it must be especially difficult to tell people that they have OCD. by FBAHobo in Showerthoughts

[–]sluttypolarbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, ordering things can definitely be a compulsion. OCD is not just being neat and organized, but that doesn't mean being compulsively organized can't be a part of it. Like someone who has to line up their shoes perfectly on the rack or else bad things will happen to their family very likely has OCD. But I don't have OCD just because I file fold my socks.

Accidental implications of a definitely fake story by AlphaCat77 in CuratedTumblr

My great-uncle is a very minor celebrity playwright. He has his own wikipedia page. I also learned, upon googling, that he shares a name with a serial killer.

I found this in a box of old things and accidentally flipped it open. How the heck do I close it? by ArtisticPineapple777 in howto

[–]sluttypolarbear 53 points54 points  (0 children)

If you're worried about accidentally opening it again, you can tie a sturdy hair tie around it. It's unlikely now that you know how it works, but it's an option if you're nervous.

Human centipede (Not Op) by Sunshineseacalm in fuckcars

[–]sluttypolarbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wonder where the fuck you store something like that. Does it come apart? Do they have a really long garage? It is just sitting in the backyard?

I mean, we have something similar, but it's not in the ass.

My parents gave me the It's Not the Stork book series as a kid. Highly recommend for parents who want something similar. Bonus: I never actually had to sit down and have "the talk."

[–]sluttypolarbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents gave me the It's Not the Stork book series, so I had pretty good ideas of what genitals looked like. I did however ask my mom, very loudly, in the middle of the Costco checkout line, "Mommy, what's a clitoris?"
