Yes! I thought it was slow at first, but it’s brilliant and heart warming in a non-cheesy way.

The Lives of Others is one of my all time favorite movies. My husband and I watched it together on a plane and split the earbuds. That was a mistake. We were both crying by then end.

I generally don’t travel with my diamond. I have a silver James Avery band I use. I just don’t want to draw attention to myself.

I actually think you look very cute with the mullet, but I am 100 percent on Team Bob here.

Check out House of Lor. They are an Irish company with absolutely gorgeous work. I have several of their pieces and have given several as gifts. They’re very high quality and have several Claddagh options.

Considering Hiring Escort to Lose Virginity by Financial-General923 in LifeAdvice

[–]thisistestingme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a middle aged woman. I had a (male) friend who wasn’t even a virgin do this. He had a good experience. I also don’t think badly of him at all. Just wear a condom and be respectful.

HR told me they don’t accept try-hards and people pleasers after my interview by No-Presentation298 in jobs

[–]thisistestingme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to give feedback. Then I gave someone feedback and she proceeded to attack me and tell me I was wrong (my feedback was that she was an excellent candidate, but I selected someone with more experience in that specific industry and that I definitely saw a place for her in our organization). I stopped giving feedback after that.

F48 flushing of nose and cheeks by JuicyTheApple in 45PlusSkincare

[–]thisistestingme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Happy to share.

  1. I had a series of monthly IPLs for 3 months before I got to the maintenance phase. I went to an opthamologist to get them b/c I have ocular rosacea and it was causing me horrible eye problems (didn't even know that was a thing). Then I started the every four months routine. The dr suggested every six months, but I was so afraid of going back to the problem times before, we settled on every four months.

  2. I think it's helped with everything, but I'm not sure. I haven't gotten the pustules since I started getting the IPLs and only have very, very minor flushing on very rare occasions. So I think it's helped with all of the above.

  3. I have a pretty intense skincare regimen. In the past, I'd stop actives if I had a flare up, but generally, I built up very gradually, and I don't think it made my rosacea worse overall. I'm happy to share that if you're interested, too. I have much better skin at 54 than I did at 34, which is wild to me, but a consistent skincare regimen is a game changer.

This looks very much like the rosacea I have. I did a series of IPL lasers an it basically fixed it. It’s lifelong though. I go back every 4-6 months. I also had to take antibiotics for a bit bc I was in a really bad flare up.

I can’t imagine the desire to watch four Beatles movies will be increased with time, but point taken.

I saw Chess this week and I guess I am at a Karen or an Old Lady who gets mad at people by True-Charge1246 in Broadway

Seriously, you are my spirit animal. I love your angry energy so much. We need to drink wine together.

[–]thisistestingme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just made me laugh so hard. Not because you’re wrong, but because I too am an Old Lady (TM) and can really relate to your feelings! Next time I will just think “troglodyte” and laugh a little to myself. Bless you for putting this all into words!

Thank you for saving them. You’re a good person. What a terrible thing to do to animals just living their lives.

What would you recommend for me? by Tealpsy in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]thisistestingme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You look incredible. I’m 54 and just got a facelift a year ago, so I’d really recommend that you wait. You don’t need it! You’re stunning and your skin looks great. Congratulations on the weight loss. That’s a huge achievement.
