At least children will be there for you in your old age. You raise beetles all you get is a shat-on carpet and beetle skeletons clogging up the windows.

She didn't want the 1st one, and she can't have thought that a 2nd would have somehow improved her situation. IMO - She was lonely and thought it would solve her problems What she really wanted was her husband to work a 40 hour a week job so she could spend time with the person she clearly loves a lot more than her kids Mirthless fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Apr 3, 2017 |

Prank gone wrong, tale as old as tiiiiime..... My (21f) BF (22m) of a year put Tabasco sauce in my food as a joke. I ended up in the emergency room after it got in my eyes and reacted with my contacts. He's apologized but still I'm crushed because I'm deeply in love with him and don't want to be the butt of his jokes quote:So like the title says, I've been with Bennet for a year and I really love him. He's a great guy for the most part and this event was really out of character for him.

It kinda sounds to me like he was trying to prank her to try and get her engaged with the group and be part of the fun, not make her the butt of a joke. That one at least seems well-intentioned to me and appropriately apologetic, unlike vaseline in the bathtub or Larry David wannabe dropping a baby or whatever.

quote:We were out with all his friends, I was the only girl. The conversation sort of left me behind so while I wasn't saying much I felt I was engaged and laughing at the stories. When I went to the bathroom apparently Bennett told his friends "this should liven her up" and dumped a bunch of Tabasco on my salad. The attitude of her boyfriend here strikes me as really lovely, imo. Like, a total lack of respect for her.

Weird, I got the exact opposite vibe, like he's calling her out for not being engaged.

Ouhei posted:Probably splitting hairs at this point but I am minimizing the mental health aspect because I think her actions go above and beyond them, but it's not worth fighting about. I did add some fun bolding to your last bit though. Look, language matters. Whether or not the language is being used on a dead and/or gay comedy forum, language matters. Lots of people who might seek out help otherwise don't because of the stigma associated with it. There are thousands of mothers out there who struggle with loving their children - that, itself, isn't monstrous. It's a normal thing that happens to a lot of people. One of the big problems with postpartum (and many other mental health conditions, for that matter) is that people shame the poo poo out of women who have it. If she'd been able to admit to herself and her husband that she was having these difficulties she might have been able to work through these problems before she had a psychotic break.

For example, if the context is "a mirthless post" then language matters so little it's effectively irrelevant.

the funny version of that prank is putting salt in someone's soda. it tastes weird as hell but it's harmless and you giggle about it. hot sauce, tho, don't gently caress with hot sauce and ESPECIALLY don't spill hot sauce all over the table including their napkins and leave it there

When I was a kid and we were visiting family in PA one time, my mom made Kool-Aid with salt by accident. The only food prank I ever did was once time in high school one dude was rambling on and on and wouldn't shut up, so I put a tiny hole in a mayo packet and squirted onto his hand while moaning. He stopped babbling and a good time was had by all.

Once in highschool a couple guys jizzed on a donut and gave it to another guy to eat. Back then I was super grossed out when I heard about it but now as an adult it's shifted to what the gently caress. How's that for messing with someone's food. The gently caress is wrong with people

Mirthless posted:Look, language matters. Whether or not the language is being used on a dead and/or gay comedy forum, language matters. For me ultimately the bipolar diagnosis and probable postpartum offer a glimpse into why she did some what she did, but it doesn't excuse her (which I know you're not trying to argue) or make me feel any real sympathy for her either. I'd feel sympathy and put more weight on the mental issues if she had expressed any sort of remorse or desire to fix any of it after the fact, but she hasn't so I don't really give a poo poo if she has mental issues.

Yawgmoth posted:You are incredibly lucky, all the nontrad students I had to deal with in college were awful at both balancing school/* and at shutting the gently caress up during class. Nothing like getting "yeah I can't do any work on this group project because I have a family. I also can't pick up the phone or answer a loving email because of that family. Sorry you don't have anything better to do with your life than homework. " throughout a semester. All, really? Maybe just the ones you notice disrupting class or something because there are a lot more of them our there. That's hilarious that you think someone with kids is worse at balancing responsibilities than a 20 year old though. I basically have had to give a disclaimer at the outset of any group work involving the 20 year olds that I am willing to do as much or as little of the project as they want, up to and including all of it, but for the love of god if you can't produce the work on a timeline tell me now so I can do it myself necause I DO have responsibilities and need to complete my portion ahead of schedule. Invariably one of them will go no-contact the day before it needs to be handed in without finishing thier work.

In my experience, the older students had learned from past mistakes and applied them (managing your time, being proactive with working in groups, making the most of office hours, etc) and I was impressed that people who hadn't been in school in decades were acing classes that their younger counterparts were more familiar with.
