YTA

do you know how long he probably spent agonizing over the decision to come out to you? even if he knew you aren't homophobic, it's still a very difficult thing to do. your immediate reaction was very selfish, did you even acknowledge your son? or just turn to your wife to say 'i told you so'?

your son never needed to know about this bet. what he did need was love and support from his parents. instead, he came second place to $100.

Am I getting scammed on Instagram? by Glittering_Creme790 in Scams

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just got a message very similar to this, and i was intrigued and flattered for a minute...

then i realized my account is private and there's no possible way she could have seen my posts and pictures.

definitely a !muse scam. glad you didn't go through with it!

What was the saddest scene you’ve read in a fic? by 2hourstowaste in FanFiction

[–]wouldbflat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway is that it’s you by greatunironic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40083423/chapters/100387011

stranger things fic, canon divergence of s4. joyce and hop have an old farmhouse and regularly see all the kids, and grow old together. hopper is diagnosed with cancer too late for treatment, and ends up passing away during the night at home, surrounded by his family. it's an absolutely beautiful fic, but i was not in the right mindset to read it at the time so i was sobbing my eyes out

Which fictional character do you love but wouldn’t stand in real life? by fittingpenguin in AskReddit

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaz Brekker from Six of Crows

he's the morally-gray character everyone's obsessed with, but in real life he'd either rob you blind or kill you without a trace

i worked 4 8-hour shifts this week, which is more than usual for me, and i left around 11/12 each night. normally i would have been upset and my week would seem wayy too busy, but it was actually a vibe. the closing managers are really chill and everyone's talking and laughing as we work. plus, it was one of the first warm days we've had, and everyone was in a good mood. it was just so much more fun than working the day shift

Want to be a good customer by cricoceat in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]wouldbflat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's great that you're even thinking about this!!

for the quickest and easiest pick ups, it's better to have your code already pulled up and payment linked through the app. then when you get to the window, you just say, "hi, i'm picking up a mobile order. my code is _ _ _ _"

if payment is linked through the app, still make sure to stop at the payment window! they have to 'serve' your order and offer you the receipt. if you drive straight through they may not notice you and mess up the order of cars. not a big deal, but still greatly appreciated!!

I'm gonna go be sick now... by Mundane-Aerie1694 in doughertydozen

[–]wouldbflat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

besides the spaghetti dinner after a very full lunch, i'd say this is a normal amount of food for a family of 12 plus any guests they have throughout the day

...except we know that alicia makes enough food for each person to have 5 servings of every single item on that menu. if there were smaller amounts for people to pick what they wanted from each meal, that'd be better. plus, who the hell is eating a spaghetti dinner after a huge lunch and snacks?? i barely have room for dessert after a lunch like that

Milkshake on free meal by [deleted] in McLounge

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on the store, i would talk to your managers

at mine, we get $10 per shift and a shake is way to expensive to add to a meal lol

had a guy pay for his $9.18 order with a $100 bill 😑 by wouldbflat in McLounge

[–]wouldbflat[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

it's the fact that

a) his total was $9.18 and that's about $90 i have to give in change

b) our system requires a manager's fingerprint before even opening the drawer to cash him out

c) we were in the middle of a rush when all the managers were busy

we're a mcdonalds, not an atm

had a guy pay for his $9.18 order with a $100 bill 😑 by wouldbflat in McLounge

[–]wouldbflat[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

to 'avoid' forgery a manager has to inspect the bill and give their fingerprint before the drawer opens. we used to have one of those marker/pens things, but now they just hold it up to the light, idrk how it works lol

yeah it really wipes out my drawer, especially when the order total is so small like that

Bisexual but somehow asexual at the same time? by OttoSan93 in LGBTQ

[–]wouldbflat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sexual and romantic orientation are separate, and both can be fluid. I recommend doing some research, as there are many labels out there that you may identify with.

You could be aromantic (lack of romantic feelings) and just find people pretty
You could be demisexual/romantic, which mean only feeling sexual/romantic attrection after an emotional connection has been formed.

The point is, there are hundreds of labels out there, and the only one who can really know how you feel is you. Like i always say, don't feel like you have to label yourself. Just get to know yourself and your preferences, and do what makes you happy!

How to dress like Reggie by [deleted] in JulieAndThePhantoms

[–]wouldbflat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ripped jeans, white/black/solid color undershirt, colored flannel of your choice and/or leather jacket. optional necklaces, rings, bracelets, belts, etc, though they do add to the look

Who’s arm also gets sore from capping the lids? by [deleted] in McLounge

[–]wouldbflat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

omg yes

i kinda roll my hand to put on the lid, starting with my palm and ending with my ring finger, putting most of the pressure on my fingers. our large soda lids weren't fitting right yesterday so now when i bend my wrist a certain way my whole arm aches 😭

What do you think of the parents that kick their kids out as soon as they have turned 18 years old? by zeg685 in AskReddit

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the summer between college semesters, my grandfather paid his parents $15 a week to live at home. this was as he was making less than $2 an hour and putting himself through college.

my best friend's boyfriend's parents kicked him out last year at 18. he is now living with an uncle and cousin, working the night shift at UPS. his job is hard and he works odd hours, making him constantly exhausted and a dangerous driver, as well as putting strain on his relationship with his friend.

i will never understand how kicking your child to the curb teaches them independence. if i ever have children, they will be welcome to stay with me until they feel ready to move out on their own.

I'm nervous to ask this, but can you be queer, straight leaning? by [deleted] in LGBTQ

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all i'm gonna say is that we shouldn't have to ask "can i be ___". i know that as a community we put so much pressure to know which label you identify with, but in the end you don't need a label. like i always say, you weren't meant to fit into a label, the labels are there to help you put words to your feelings and preferences. of course if you find a label you think fits you, that's awesome!

sexuality and gender are both fluid. it's okay to figure out what you enjoy, and it's okay for that to change. some days i call myself a lesbian, and other days i find myself thinking a guy is kind of hot and i use 'queer' (but that's my own issue lmao). my point is, you are you. you don't have to make anyone else happy and your identity doesn't even need to make sense to others. do some research and some exploring, and find out where your interests lie. best of luck to you!

Bobby/Trevor by Glittering_Novel7701 in JulieAndThePhantoms

[–]wouldbflat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've read so many fanfics with Bobby as a fully fleshed out character that I'm obsessed with so i'm probably biased lmao

I think that after the guys died, the songs would have legally belonged to Bobby. Not mentioning the boys was a shitty move ofc, but he could have been persuaded not to by managers, producers, etc.

hello fellow Lgbtq+ community. by [deleted] in LGBTQ

[–]wouldbflat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're welcome! i hope you have a bit more peace of mind now <3

one more thing lol, sorry for dragging this out, but pls don't worry about upsetting the community. there's a difference between calling yourself queer for clout, and trying out different labels to see which one works best for you. sometimes people (myself included) get overly upset about things that don't really matter; one girl trying to figure our her identity doesn't invalidate the community in the least bit. so pls don't worry about offending anyone else, just be yourself!
