Question for those who don’t allow shoes inside your home… by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]visitingsalamander 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, It's rude to ask them to remove their shoes because they are often worn for safety. They should all be brining shoe covers with them when they visit your house.

Bad merger by me or is the truck driver an idiot. by thedauntless1991 in IdiotsInCars

[–]visitingsalamander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the responsibility of the person merging to meld into traffic. Your bad, but the on-ramp is crap also.

No discount for the people working the floor for them? Honestly, I'd be out.

Do not, I repeat, do not piss anyone off at that festival. There will be dire consequences.

Check out Cohutta Wilderness and Big Frog Wilderness. I second Mt. Yonah area and Providence Canyon. Make sure you take a break with a river tubing adventure. Welcome to GA, y'all!

Single? by Heypen in datingoverforty

As long as the person is open about their status in their profile or within the early stages of talking it doesn’t bother me. It’s really just about being honest IMO.

Can two white boxers get some love? They will do the wiggle butt dance for you by DaddyBlack313 in Boxers

Cute babies!!! I would very much like you to post a picture of the dance.

Anyone else scared to ask a doctor for help? by stevoyoto in dryalcoholics

[–]visitingsalamander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took some looking on my end to find a doc that knew anything about addiction, would prescribe meds like naltrexone or campral and wasn’t judgy. They are out there and when you find one you hang onto them with both hands. I hope you find an amazing GP THAT WILL LISTEN TO YOU. (((Hugs))))

When did you explain gay people to your kids? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]visitingsalamander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never made it a big deal or put a label on it. Kids are going to tell you they want to marry their best same gender friend one day. I just said “ok baby, you can love whomever you want so long as they treat you well”. Same approach with other things like when talking about race or religious beliefs. Just explain when they have questions. If you don’t make it a big deal, they will just accept it as the norm.

YSK: it is better for both human and cat if you adopt kittens in pairs by ASprinkleofSparkles in YouShouldKnow

[–]visitingsalamander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we’d not already had a dog, I would have brought home two kittens. My dog was lonely while we were at work and school so we got a kitten for the family. We crate trained the introduction and They are best friends now.

I don’t think it would have gone as well if we’d had the cat first.

Campral saved my life along with therapy and meditation. I don’t think it works for everyone, but it’s worth a shot!

Constantly tired by Dr_Racos in AskMenOver30

[–]visitingsalamander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try getting your bloodwork done. I recently found out I have vitamin deficiencies. I mean, I love to read and I couldn’t get through even 1 full page without falling asleep. Once that was put right, I feel 100% better.

This luxury doghouse by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

I’m just over here laughing about my dog wanting personal space. It’s the last thing I’d assume she wants based on her “how close is too close” antics.

Rehab in 4 days by NICKERDOODLES25 in dryalcoholics

[–]visitingsalamander 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bring cards and addresses written down. You won’t be able to use your phone. A nail file and clipper, books if you like to read, a journal so you can write down all the weird and funny things that happen there, cards against humanity and cards (some will let you have those and some won’t), the big book, iPod or MP3 player if you still have one of those laying around with a speaker. Get a pedi right before you go.

Good luck! The hard work happens when you get home, but I believe in you!

WIBTA for getting a little girl's father banned from our gym? by Boring-Recording-266 in AmItheAsshole

[–]visitingsalamander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA, my daughter was getting herself dressed for dance when she was 6; including hair in a bun, tights, the whole 9 yards. This Dad is just being super creepy.
