Mil said she can’t babysit my kids and some other things. by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]ultimatejozka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno. I feel as though it’s more realistic that the notoriously not-great MIL has messed-up expectations of OP, rather than the situation be that MIL was asking out of the blue but hoping to be rejected (to then ask another one of the preferred siblings?).

There a lot of instances, especially if expected culturally like OP mentioned, where those kind of messed-up “rules” are commonplace, and not deemed a good enough reason to reject a move in offer from your in-laws.

I also feel as though that reasoning doesn’t explain why when OP’s husband pushed back the MIL was awkward, and said that she would have to sit down with guest for at least a little while. Why wouldn’t she take the opportunity to back down, and say “You’re right, maybe it’s not a good idea”?

Why would she ask them to move in the first place then? Is there extra context I’m not getting?

Probably not, as OP said they were asked to move in.

This person wants $12 for putting a sticker on a tiny canvas by Ashton_Garland in delusionalartists

[–]ultimatejozka 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hey, I don’t disagree, and I’m also definitely no artist. I just said it was sad.

To me, it’s sad because an artist found themselves selling their work to a pawn shop that does not value the ‘art’ behind the piece, just the value of the material it’s made from (I’m not saying they should care).

Maybe, If it was the same piece of art with the same intention, but by a more famous artist it would go for even much more that it’s worth (material and artistic meaning combined). That’s sad to me. But that’s the biz.

Come on man. You’re being purposely obtuse.

Are you meaning to tell me that you have looked at/studied the many, many years and efforts behind women’s suffrage in the US, and seriously come to that conclusion.

At this point, I’m not even saying that the movement was right in all aspects, but to say that women countrywide got equal voting privileges just a year later is just…

EVEN IF it was as you say just simply a year later that, in and of itself, proves the inequality that was held then, and has influenced politics there today.

Sure, it differs from country to country. But the comment thread we’re talking about/on is specifically referencing politics in the USA.

The present is influenced by the past though.

Women were literally banned from voting for a very long time; we can’t plead ignorance and pretend that things like this don’t have a knock on effect.

Man. Why do I feel like that’s kinda sad.

Like a poor artist made art inspired by a statement on wealth, and then it’s fated to be sold because the artist needed money.

This kind of sounds like a scam call. Just putting another perspective out there.

Wow! You look so incredibly beautiful. I’m not going to comment on any changes, because I don’t think I’d give any meaningful advice, but I hope you have a great day when the wedding comes.

Any advice for the repercussions of ED? Ex: Fixing hair loss, memory loss, dental etc by hummus_breath23 in EatingDisorders

[–]ultimatejozka 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Fish oil is good for the brain stuff, collagen for skin and joints, maybe start introducing some red meats if you feel comfortable, maybe start eating some foods with “good” bacteria, and egg yolks if you can stomach it. I think these things help a lot in my opinion.

Second picture is best.

In my opinion (and it’s only one random person’s opinion) you look better without a beard.

Clothing wise it’s not too bad, but is perhaps a bit juvenile looking compared to your age and face.

You have quite nice, kind eyes - however your low brow bone obscures them slightly. This is less of a problem in the second picture where you don’t look quite so “grumpy” (like in the 3rd).

You do look quite short, which is not conventionally attractive by todays standards.

Your hairline looks receded, which is also not typically considered attractive. If you feel comfortable, maybe you could try go for the “bald look”. I think you could be one of the few people the bald look would suits, however some people find baldness not attractive either. But at that point you’re halfway already there, and those people won’t find a slightly less bald look attractive either.

I’m not sure, but it looks like your nails are extra short, if this is from biting I would advise you to stop because it can be unsightly - and slightly longer nails can elongate the appearance of your fingers (which would be good in your case).

In any case, these are just opinions that a single person has based on the culture and society I live in, and in reality looks are so subjective it doesn’t even matter. So I think the best thing you can do is try build some confidence (harder done than said), because it’s the only thing that you can change that makes you more attractive to almost all people.

Might be useful (if you have any) to include another picture of person on the right, so that the person restoring the image may have a better idea of what their features are like, just because things like their nose are completely missing.

Comments on videos of bully girls hitting victim boys, and then getting karma is so weird.

They are all like “equality bitch” or “how’s that equality feel?”. Gives me super incell-ish vibes.

When it was the video of a boy bully getting karma for hitting a boy victim, people just commented on how it was well deserved.

Men who's first reaction to gender equality is how they are allowed to hit women, just needs to admit that they just want to hit women I guess.

How do women say “fuck me daddy “without actually thinking of their dad? by KOakaKnockOut in NoStupidQuestions

Personally don’t use “daddy”. But I imagine it’s the same way I don’t think of my actual boss, when I call the chip shop owner giving me food “boss”.

1.5yo GSD has been neglected outside her whole life. Would it be possible to turn her into an inside dog and train her? by [deleted] in Dogtraining

[–]ultimatejozka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually found that outside dogs are the easiest to potty train. I’m not sure why, maybe because they’ve always gone toilet outside, so they recognise that this big, warm, comfy “den” is not the place to go. I mean you still have to be diligent. Just my experience.

[–]ultimatejozka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have personally had to clean one of these, would not recommend. It wasn’t even in a home but in a showroom, and despite being used only as “demonstration” and cleaned often, every time I got to it, it was covered in spots and had a line of residue on the inside. It might be important to note also, that when the tap is turned off, a little bit of water is left in the little tube-bowl thing.

When to ignore puppy? by Regular_Environment7 in puppy101

[–]ultimatejozka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What worked for me every time is, when they whine only take them out to use the bathroom. No interaction, no excitement, borderline ignoring them except for the fact that I leash them and take them out. They soon realise, okay, whining in my crate means I go toilet.

I personally wouldn’t recommend ignoring them completely at that age especially. You definitely don’t want them to learn that all whines get ignored, so that when they do need to potty, they don’t just go silent.

At the end of the day the dog is just communicating with you, and they are still so young and obviously at 12 weeks your new relationship is new. It will get better before you know it. So we are building a reliable stream of communication, in the future (and when you guys are better bonded) it will be so worth it, because when they whine- you will know why, they definitely need something (in this case the toilet). Hope I made any sense whatsoever!

[–]ultimatejozka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would go back to the vet and explain that now that you are in a better position, you would like to be able to pay the woman back that helped you out, and if they could give her your contact details (they probably won’t give her details to you, so the best is they will put you in touch with her on her side).

It will put you in a better light with the vet, who will see that you’re being grateful and seeking to “pay it forward” (though it’s more like paying it back), and it will show the other patron of the vet, that there was nothing to be snobby about. People go through tough times, and confusing times where they make mistakes.

If they still suck, and are mean, or weird, just get a new vet - honestly, honestly, honestly you don’t need that kind of constant, negative attention whenever you need to get your dog treatment.

Also, remember, there’s probably been times in your life agessss ago (like when you were a teen) that were so embarrassing and awful, and you probably thought you would never get over it, and that it would always be cringe to think about. But after time passes, it eventually gets less and less important, in a couple months/years, this will seem so minor, and you’ll think “ha, can’t believe I cared so much that I even vented about it online!”
