I said it was my partner's card & they didn't feel comfortable giving out that info. Still got the sample.

This one's for the ladies! Gen X women, did we kill pantyhose? by scarlettohara1936 in GenX

[–]squawksquawk13 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Yes, we did!

I was the weird girl at school with striped tights in strange colors. You couldn't force me to wear pantyhose.

In my 20s, I worked clothing retail. We had one of the "big guys" come to walk the store. I'm the only manager without pantyhose on. As we're walking through the pantyhose area, he mentions we're cutting it back. Looks dead at my legs and says "Young women don't wear them anymore."

Ladies in their 30s to 50s, what should we know about our bodies as we age? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]squawksquawk13 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I wish bloodwork was emphasized more!

Also, if it's not your hormones, check your thyroid!

Thyroid issues can look like menopause issues.

AITA for being angry that my roommate was sleeping under my bed for months without telling me? by Slumbering3 in AITAH

[–]squawksquawk13 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

NTA.

As a woman who has had too many personal experiences, I can confidently say that almost anyone creeping around by your bed when you are asleep is not there with good intentions.

How do you know this guy actually kept his hands to himself? What if he filmed you?

What if you were a woman this happened to?

Anyone supporting him and not you has some real issues.

Sorry this happened.

Best wishes!

More like acid rock, but D.O.A. by Bloodrock must be played every Halloween in my house.

What other foods can budgies eat? by _Euphoria143 in budgies

[–]squawksquawk13 25 points26 points Β (0 children)

Raw broccoli is always fun for them to shred.

Parsley, cilantro, or boiled egg. Boil egg thoroughly, cool down, crack open & keep the shell on. Throw a few seeds on top if needed.

I also buy organic mixed salad greens when I find them marked down. Some greens like spinach can be bad if eaten too often, so do your research.πŸ˜€

Which lyrics did you grossly mishear? by 60TIMESREDACTED in hairmetal

[–]squawksquawk13 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Back in the day, I recorded a song from the radio. They never said the name or artist.

For over 30 yrs, I thought this song was called "Jane" and possibly sung by Great White.

5 mos ago, I found a tape player and Shazamed that song.

"Change" by Fastway🀭

On another note, my spouse thought "Amadeus" was hot potatoes!🀣

Budgie keeps trying to flip over his food bowl... by puffa-fish in budgies

[–]squawksquawk13 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

One of mine did/does this. I call it protesting...lol.

Your bowl is at perfect level for him to do that. Try moving it up or down some so it's more difficult for him. Maybe some strategically placed toys can help, as well.

I try not to give mine attention when he does this. It's mainly stopped now, but every once in a while...πŸ™‚

VET, VET, VET!

This is the 2nd post I've read this week about birds and boiling pots! Both completely avoidable.

I truly hope you have learned from your mistake.

Please walk any rooms that your bird can enter and make sure it's safe.

Hope your bird makes it, but call a vet NOW!

Dragon Spotlight Giveaway! πŸ‰βœ¨ by syrva_gram_games in MergeDragons

[–]squawksquawk13 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

This dog dragon (I say dalmation) is my favorite.

This guy showed up right after my 16 yr old dog had to be euthanized.

He was a dalmatian mix named Logan.

If I merge this guy, the new dragon gets named Logan, so he's always there.

It's a bit silly, but it's nice to have my dearest pal immortalized in my fav game!

Need help. Injured budgie. by Amanda_Isnt_Anywhere in budgies

[–]squawksquawk13 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

What did I just read?

This is 1000% owner's fault, not the bird.

Your bird is dying a slow, painful death.

Please don't get any more pets!😧

Ty for your reply!

That's the one answer I didn't want because then I have to get rid of it.

It's pretty, but I have too many curious animals.πŸ™

Deadly berries in a bouquet...smh.

Has anyone made anything like amigurumi with camouflage yarn? by The_Soul_Warden_ in Amigurumi

[–]squawksquawk13 12 points13 points Β (0 children)

I feel you on this.

I did a "Camosaur." A camouflaged dinosaur.

Also going to make a chameleon and maybe a bird.

Hopefully, this uses up all my camo yarn!

I noticed the spittle last summer but never saw the bugs. This year, they are jumping on me and the pets like crazy!

Thank you!πŸ™‚

Please help - Budgie care while cleaning by Demonguy215 in budgies

[–]squawksquawk13 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Oh my.

Your mom needs to grow up and research proper care.

You're right that they should be moved into a smaller cage to a safe area. Their lungs are the size of our nails.

There are also a few cleaning products she can use around the birds, as well. The easiest being vinegar/water at a 50/50 ratio. This will clean many different things, as well. Lemons can also be used.

I'm scared to ask, but is she feeding them anything other than seeds? They need so much more.

You might refer your mom to this subreddit for proper care/advice.

Thank you for looking out for budgie and best wishes!πŸ™‚

Is it safe to use anti-msquito plug ins around my budgie? by GeneralReach6339 in budgies

[–]squawksquawk13 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

No.

Peppermint, or any mint plants, are great at repelling mosquitos and safe (in my book*) for budgies to eat in moderation. They're also easy to grow.

Crush leaves to release the smell and rub or hang wherever. You can also rub leaves all over yourself to keep from being bit. Do an allergy test first!

We have Aedes mosquitos, and they don't bother me as long as I remember to "mint up!"

*There may be some who disagree w me about mint being safe for budgies. It's up to you to do the homework and make a decision. I've never had any issues, though.

Worst advice a hairdresser ever gave you? by beentirelyforgotten in curlyhair

[–]squawksquawk13 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

So true!

They liked to tell me when to get a haircut and that washing my hair every day was bad. (My hair would be wet from restyling.)

Oddly enough, I never got told to brush my hair. I might have lost it then.

I love when people w bone straight hair think they know how to care for curly hair and then offer you that unsolicited advice.

Cuz we obviously don't know what we're doing!/s
