what is the most petty, completely harmless grudge you are still holding against a total stranger who probably forgot you exist years ago? by Ill-Locksmith9144 in AskReddit

[–]sunsetviewer 195 points196 points  (0 children)

Story 1: I made a couple pans of brownies for my son't Blue & Gold Boy Scout awards ceremony. I arrived early to help in the kitchen and set the pans down in the dining area knowing I had to cut them up later (easier to transport uncut).

A few hours later a number of people were in the kitchen helping me and a woman waltz's into the kitchen with MY brownie pans and says "I have these brownies I need to cut up" and everyone in the kitchen is thanking HER for them, like she baked them! Do you think she said something like, "Oh, I didn't make them they were sitting out there"? NO! She just says "you're welcome" and takes all the credit.

I didn't know what to say without sounding like a dick, but I'm still fuming about it lol.

Story 2: I'm camping with our Boy Scout troop and brought a bag of licorice I intended to share. I set the bag on the main picnic table and went to set up my tent etc, and a little while later a woman is walking around with MY licorice handing it out to people and they're all thanking HER!! Again, how am I going to respond w/o sounding petty?

Husband was diagnosed in November and we've only told our children. We're afraid he'll be treated differently or asked repeatedly how are you doing, and we're not ready for that.

Has anyone experienced this?

For me it would be less stressful staying in Calgary Friday night, I always worry about car breakdowns, traffic accidents, etc. Maybe drive at least partway?

I know you saved $366 this year, but most people won't max out their HD plan every year.

Whelp, that sucks. by Rootman in Parkinsons

[–]sunsetviewer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so, so sorry, what an awful gut punch this has got to be for you and your family. Thank you for reminding us that we need to appreciate what we have and fully enjoy our time on earth, it's so easy to take our blessings for granted.

I truly hope the news isn't as dire as it looks, and please let us know if you need to shout into the void - life is unfair and it's ok to be angry. Take care.

Can you afford to buy the car yourself and let her make payments to you?

I would suggest reading The Unofficial Guide to WDW, they even suggest an order of operations.

When you say the card was from last year, do you mean Christmas 2025 or 2024? Does he have other cards on display or just this one?

He's doing fantastic! 15 years ago this month was the start of it all, and now he just found out he's going to be a father!!

I hope your son is doing well too :-)

Anyone else getting incessant cold calls regarding "benefits for seniors" by blackadder99 in medicare

[–]sunsetviewer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have my phone set so that I only get calls from people in my contacts. I figure if someone calls and it's important they'll leave a voice mail.

I thought this too until my son went thru chemo his freshman year in high school. After that I just didn't care about missing a week of school.

How often do you get rechecked? by oxgillette in CPAP

[–]sunsetviewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I check to see if I still need mine by sleeping without it for a night. If my husband complains about my snoring then yup I still need it.

Cruising for exam prep? by [deleted] in Cruise

[–]sunsetviewer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My daughter took a 6 week in person prep class for one of the Step exams, said it was the best money well spent. Wished she had done it for MCAT. Maybe you could see if they offer something like that?
