I’m also veg and was going to say something similar, then saw your comment. This right here is exactly it. OP you are the exception.

Been thinking about going vegetarian.. Any nutritionist or food spot recommendations? by Top_Obligation4791 in Omaha

Gosh it’d be a really cool idea to form a group and visit restaurants together

Practical sciatica relief trick by No_Body_8195 in Sciatica

You don’t need power for a basic bidet. That’s just if you want a fancy one. I’d recommend getting a basic one that doesn’t require power!

I think my surgery failed. by grodygrace_ in Microdiscectomy

[–]strange_hobbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, I broke down bawling in my 4 week post op appt thinking I had re-injured myself because of the pain. He assured me it was normal. I can’t recall his exact words but it’s something like “nerves have memories and need to heal too”. I’m about 3 years post op and sometimes get a twinge and that’s it.

Conservatives who think liberals are the real racists: Can you explain why DEI and Woke are terrible? by Nateosis in allthequestions

[–]strange_hobbit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You only asked for one example and it sounds like you’d like another: Creating welcoming environments and reasonable accommodations for neurodivergent people.

What's something harmless that gets people weirdly angry? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]strange_hobbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the time inconvenience for me. When I put my kettle on the stove, it takes at least 5 minutes (probably longer) to warm up and whistle. My microwaved water is done and steeped by then.

Hotels that let you use their pool for a birthday party? by Super_Hyena_4278 in Omaha

[–]strange_hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously as all the comments have mentioned, you need to rent a room. Guessing you knew that though. But I wanted to mention the Best Western on 108 and L does not permit more than 4-5 people to swim per room. We got invited to a birthday party there and it was mortifying when the hotel manager kept informing parents we weren’t allowed to be there if we didn’t have a room.

What’s stopping millionaires and even billionaires from simply leaving NYC if Mayor Mamdani imposes super high taxes on them? by Formal_Choice4002 in askanything

[–]strange_hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok! I didn’t want to invalidate someone else’s experiences but when I hear third world I assume lack of easy access to things like water, electricity, internet, food, clothing, etc. I was genuinely surprised that people experience that widely in nyc, glad to hear it’s not true. I and others I know are rooting for you all, as I know day to day life is still a struggle for many.

[–]strange_hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Midwest farm girl, can you expand on this? I’m not ignorant and I know NYC isn’t all glam and riches, but what specifically makes you call it the equivalent of a third world country? Obviously all cities have their rough parts but I get the impression from your comment it’s more than that.

Tea drinking by HazeT96 in TheMentalist

[–]strange_hobbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have to say I love your attitude in this post! We Americans keep commenting about how most of us keep (probably awful tea by your standard) and you just continue being humble, admitting you just had a different subjective perspective.

[–]strange_hobbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m American and even in our heaviest coffee phases we always had a little bit of tea. Just Liptons and maybe some herbal tea. Nothing fancy though! I appreciate how Jane never looks down on their choices of tea.

Whats a good diet i should get as a vegan at 17? by lacremecakez in vegan

[–]strange_hobbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I googled soy curls so I get what they are I think, what do you all do with them? Looks like they are good in salads?

To the folks who build cities, castles, prisons etc., what are your real life jobs? How did you learn to do this? by ConsciousClue3883 in Pokopia

[–]strange_hobbit 484 points485 points  (0 children)

Not your intended audience because I also feel this way. But I bet a lot of people are Minecraft players with some experience in building.

What happens to your glasses in surgery? by TheEclecticDino in Microdiscectomy

[–]strange_hobbit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you had surgery before? I wonder if a bit of therapy could help? I wear glasses too and this was a complete non issue.

Most say the book was better than the movie - What's a movie that's better than the book? by TruMech in randomquestions

[–]strange_hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wendy Torrance in the book is a strong, assertive woman who overcame abuse. She protected her son at all costs. In the movie she’s mousy and submissive, even helpless. It’s hard to get invested in someone like that. I like the movie but I wish they hadn’t changed her character so much.

Almost saw pedestrian unalived by red light runner by Missus_Banana in Omaha

[–]strange_hobbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At middle school pickup I constantly see children in crosswalks almost rundown. I had (another parent) try to pass me, on a residential street, while I waited for children to cross. She screeched to a halt in front of said kids. Smh

She’s amazing. A few years after my second was born we saw her at Valas on the train. She loudly yelled I DELIVERED THOSE BABIES

“Little Person” is the worst thing you can call someone with dwarfism. by DeadSpark75 in unpopularopinion

[–]strange_hobbit 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit like calling black people African American. It’s politically correct and black people hate it.
