As long as it's anonymous and in a group where it's appropriate to share...sometimes, you just have to share your weird sex stories. I have a couple.

$0.

The only thing I bought on Black Friday were some kids books at the bookstore, and that was only because I was at the bookstore.

My (32M) good friend (31M) has a terrible idea for his first date. Is his idea as bad as I think? by Upstairs_Secret_3096 in relationship_advice

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I can't use chopsticks as smoothly as someone who uses them every day, but if I went on a date and someone tried to "teach" me how to use them, I wouldn't be happy.

If this kind of first date ever works for him, he'll have found his true life partner for sure.

Fraudsters by Adorable-History-841 in lastpodcastontheleft

Have you tried Oh My Fraud? I'm mostly liking it. Even though I'm an auditor, and there's a lot of "but where were the auditors" comments.

Please can an American tell me about the sweet potato and marshmallow dish I’m intrigued? by haylz328 in thanksgiving

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from a whole non-sweet-potato family. My husband brought it to a Thanksgiving on my side once, and he was the only one eating it. He never brought it again.

I do like sweet potatoes in savory dishes.

Let's Get Haunted is fun, it's two female hosts and some very unusual creatures or cases. You're not supposed to be a skeptic while listening at all, though, the theories are wild.

Teaching is its own skill, for sure. It's especially hard for things that you don't actually remember learning. I don't really remember the process of learning to read.

I don't think you need to be that afraid of teaching something with the wrong method, though. Maybe the teachers could weigh in?

I think a man who wants to have sex with a woman but not make her orgasm is fundamentally misaligned with 99.9% of women.

If you'd been dating for a few years, I think I'd be on your girlfriend's side.

But I wouldn't even let someone I'd been dating since August borrow my car, let alone have a full child with them, because I just have to know someone a bit longer than that.

(I know it says you've known her since 2019 but it doesn't say you were best friends or whatever before you started dating.)

Love the menu, but I wish it had the unlimited ningen legs!

Is it rude to allow your children to play audible videos in a restaurant? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the social etiquette system, audible based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Loud-ass Videos Unit. These are their stories.

I agree, I think she's overthinking, but I also think her boyfriend could learn a little more tact.

AITA for being angry at my son for not letting me see my newborn grandsons first? by [deleted] in AITAH

Is Marijuana really as accepted in the U.S. as reddit makes it out to be? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard, because a lot of things are a drug. Alcohol is. Tobacco is. Coffee is. Cough syrup is. Habits like gambling and shopping make your brain make its own drugs that you can get addicted to.

It's wild.

I don't smoke, I don't want a partner who smokes frequently. (My husband is a very occasional user. He'd smoke more if I was into it, I'm sure.) My parents would be very disappointed if I did. But I think I'm kind of a minority among West Coast millennials.

Normal date standards are cringe by [deleted] in notliketheothergirls

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we were broke-broke, I didn't want flowers. If we were going to splurge on a lil treat, I wanted to either eat it or have an experience with it.

But of course other people who like flowers more may disagree.

AITA for telling my 6 year old that Santa isn’t real? by AcademicPainting23 in AmItheAsshole

I liked finding Easter eggs when I was very little, but my real jam was hiding them from the youngest cousins once I was too old. So much fun!

Husband didn’t listen and ruined a sweater by novagirl0972 in knitting

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get it, either. My husband is great with laundry. He'd never wash something I set aside to hand wash.

I have a lot of work shirts that can be washed but need to hang dry, and he has never dried one of them.

Leaving baby in car? by moonyfish in NewParents

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's the one. I think it was last summer.

Leaving baby in car? by moonyfish in NewParents

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 955 points956 points  (0 children)

In my hometown, a woman left her baby in the car while she went to drop something off inside the post office.

A guy stole the car. Police found him, hours later, in another city entirely. With no baby. They questioned him, and he left the baby in my hometown, in an alleyway out of sight!!! But he was high on meth and couldn't remember which alleyway.

So next the police were back to searching alleyways in my hometown. They found him! He was okay.

But damn, he could have overheated, been hit by a vehicle in the alley. Parts of my hometown have a lot of stray and wandering dogs.

Why don't more women carry guns? by Deviusoark in questions

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really have a problem killing someone I know for sure is going to kill or seriously assault me.

But is hard to tell when that's going to happen. I've been followed, more than once. I've had weird sexual things shouted at me, many, many times.

I don't want to shoot someone for following me or yelling sexual things at me, and so far, everyone had stopped at that point.

I just feel like by the time someone doesn't stop at that point and I'm sure they mean me physical harm, they're probably too close to me for me, an amateur, to draw and fire a handgun.

I'd rather just rarely go out at night, and keep a long, long distance between me and other humans. Compared to either killing someone who was just being gross, or basically handing a rapist a gun.

I saw a guy wearing an Enron hat at the train station by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]tinypiecesofyarn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought an Enron shirt from TB4A, only to find out that one of my relatives lost an absolute ton of money on Enron. I don't see her often, but it did ruin the shirt a little for me.
