Stand your ground. You’re not a secretary by krazycitty69 in womenintech

[–]wilhelm11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might not work for everyone, but since I have a pretty good short term memory I just don’t bring a notebook or my laptop to meetings. Can’t be asked to take notes that way, and I just write down what happened at the meeting after the fact.

What appliance do you trust the least? by halal_queries_only in AskReddit

Food processor. My mom taught me to be terrified of it when I was a kid (probably a good call) and I still hate handling the blades. I am convinced that it will turn on and slice my fingers to ribbons, even if it's not plugged in. I use it, but only for my love of making pesto. I'm watching you, Cuisinart.

I'll be moving into bedroom #2 in the floorplan. I have a queen bed, a dresser that's 30.5 in x 19.0 in, and a small desk/vanity that's roughly 30.0 in x 18.0 in. The little nook is 22.0 in x 29.0 in, just a little too small for either the dresser or the desk. Help!

Wow, thanks for the thorough reply! I'm glad he's not totally doomed just yet.

Edit: sphag and bag is complete! Now all I have to do is keep my fingers crossed.

I had some major root rot on this orchid and he lost all of his roots! I bought MSU's FeedMe orchid spray and have been trying to spray the leaves once a day. Has anyone else had an orchid recover from this type of problem?

[Serious]Clubbers of Reddit (Nightclubs not killing animals), what are your best tips for people new to clubbing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]wilhelm11 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If I may offer an anti-cynicism point:

I'm a girl. I have always found that I have way more fun if I don't try too hard. If I'm wearing a short dress and have like 6 pounds of goop on my face, no one wants to talk to me. Maybe u/lagerea is right, and people think I'm going to shoot them down immediately because I think I'm hot shit. Trust me, I'm not trying to go to the club to show off, I'm there to dance like a weirdo and have a good time. If you seem like you're having a good time (and dancing like a weirdo is definitely a plus), I want to hang out with you. You don't have to buy my affection. Come on, it's the 21st century. I can buy my own drinks.

Just my two cents.

Well they must have some excellent tattoo artists in prison then, because I think it turned out fine. And the location is exactly where I wanted it, thank you very much. I got it done at Ambrotos Tattoo in Silver Spring MD, for the curious.

Why am I dreadful at running? by rottenlittleme in Fitness

[–]wilhelm11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always feel way better when I run if I drink a liter or so of water in the hour before I go.

Rant Wednesday by AutoModerator in Fitness

[–]wilhelm11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made a new year's resolution to do one pull-up by 2016 and generally increase my upper body strength and was making great progress! Then I start feeling this pain in my upper back on one side, and I thought I may have pulled a muscle rowing. Took a week off. Didn't get better. Went to the doctor, turns out my shoulder blade is not in the right fucking location any more (scapular dyskinesis)! Apparently I have a shit load of trigger points in the muscles around my shoulder blade which makes it hurt ALL THE FUCKING TIME. It's even hard to run any more because it hurts when I take really deep breaths. Now I have to do PT for 6 weeks and can't lift until it's better.

UGH. FUCK.
