Same is true when people tell you their local time and not their time zone.
- Comment on How do people easily find out that I'm an easy to pick up on? 1 day ago:
Do you act like a know it all? Do you overshare?
To stop being a doormat you have to start setting boundaries. This works both with yourself and others.
- Comment on Why do celebs commit crimes and such like Tony Romo and his DWI? He had a 180 million dollar deal. Why not hire a driver or stay at home and buy ridiculous shit? 2 days ago:
They made it in a highly competitive industry by being ruthless and trying their gut. They think they’re better than the commoners, including the pesky laws the regular folks have to follow. Do you remember tiger woods calling Trump during his arrest? It’s the “do you know who I am” crowd.
- Comment on Take cover 3 days ago:
Why wouldn’t you use ai for it? This is exactly the kind of work it can do. No one reads those things so having one is just a formality.
- Comment on Take cover 4 days ago:
Doesn’t ai make it easier? Create a template and just copy and paste shit.

- Opposite of 2, you’ll be in pain longer because they want to keep your organs alive.

Humble brag?

I haven’t noticed this in my area.

It seems like a lot more work. Each of my cards had a certain purpose (I use 3 cards), so all I have to do is see what the balance is for me to know my expenses for the month. Annually the credit cards give me a summary statement and that tells me expenses for the year.
Cash for me disappears and I have no idea what I spent it on. I have no desire to deal with receipts/extra clutter. And I have no desire to manually have to keep track of anything.
- Comment on Valid point 5 weeks ago:
I try to pay everything with credit cards because it makes budgeting super easy for me. I haven’t used cash in 15+ years.
- Comment on Valid point 5 weeks ago:
I’ve never used a wallet. I either put my credit card and ID in my jeans or the small zipped pocket of my purse. 2 cards don’t deserve to have their own wallet - what do y’all put in there?
- Comment on 1 month ago:
The irony is that many people aren’t making the money needed to accumulate wealth/property. There’s nothing to protect.

Why is everyone getting fat over here? Maybe I’m the minority, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve started gravitating toward healthy food and it wasn’t even intentional. Maybe my taste buds changed.
- Comment on What do you do if you lose an argument, but it turns out that you were actually right? 1 month ago:
Who are you doing this for? Is it because you need closure or validation? If so, the answer is no. Validate yourself. Learn your lesson and then move on. You can’t rely on other people to meet your unmet needs.
- Comment on Anon is a paramedic 2 months ago:
My parents are crazy too but they’re drug free, which has always confused me. The problem is their personality, not an addiction. But I have thought about how they’d react - my mom would play the victim and my dad would play pickleball/tennis. That’s just what they’ve always done.
- Comment on I'd like to change my last name and want suggestions 2 months ago:
Which reminds me of nominative determinism. OP should choose “Rich” “ Wise” “Smart” “Dollar”. And also - first Impressions are everything.
- Comment on I'd like to change my last name and want suggestions 2 months ago:
Ellis island misspelling
Reminds me of someone I knew who had a swear word in their last name. They changed it because every time someone saw the spelling they’d get laughed at.
Do you like your last name? If so Americanize it. If you don’t take Winter, although it’s at the end of the alphabet and you might have to wait longer for some things.

Who funds AIPAC is probably a better question.

Zany to the max
- Comment on Consumerism ahhhhh moment 5 months ago:
Y’all are watching ads? If I see an ad, my immediate reaction is to close the tab.
- Comment on True of mine but he more than made up for it 7 months ago:
As did the other spouse.
- Comment on True of mine but he more than made up for it 7 months ago:
What’s the point of being married/having kids with someone if they’re useless? They didn’t buy anyone presents, they didn’t get the house prepared for the holiday, they didn’t cook the meal.
- Comment on Whats the best use for 75 dollars? 7 months ago:
Do you have to spend it right now? You could just wait until you need the money and spend it then.
- Comment on Lol, lmao even. 7 months ago:
This just shows that there is no correlation between beliefs and intelligence. The knowledge you obtain gets applied on top of your belief system, often times doesn’t change your beliefs. I have a couple of doctor friends and I wouldn’t go to 1 of them if my life depended on it. She graduated from a Caribbean med school and is your typical maga.

You won’t have to, the edible part of the banana will absorb the skins content.

That delicious plastic and sewage and population. It does a body good.

Wonder what all that banana skin soaked up.
- Comment on When a parent's primary/preferred language differs from their child(ren)'s primary/preferred language, who should have the most "obligation" to learn more of the other's preferred language? 8 months ago:
Personally I think the winning language is the language that’s most spoken in the country you both live in. I have been the family translator since I was 6 and I’m exhausted. My parents speak English but they don’t always get things and they’re insecure about it so they’ve always relied on me to translate. Throughout my life we’ve always had weird arguments because we don’t understand each other.
- Comment on why 8 months ago:
Dogs are male? In Russian dogs are female. So I guess there is no standard for gendered language.
