Is there anything for an infant to "miss" except the excitement of changing diapers in the woods and getting bitten by mosquitoes on every exposed square inch of skin?

This seems like a very you experience as opposed to the experience of most people who lock doors. Which is why doors have locks on them.

Motronic posted:Yep. I'm in a very safe area, very low crime rates, etc. But a few months ago somebody who broke out of jail ended up hiding in my neighbors barn and there were like SWAT teams and poo poo roaming around. That happened while I was out of town. We got word of a police chase in our neighborhood that had the guy running through backyards, trying to duck into open homes or sheds to hide. I've never had a successful break-in, but I've caught people in my yard before. Once while I was at home shortly after sunset my neighbor across the street came and told me that he had just seen two people come sprinting out of my backyard. No idea what they were doing there, but I wouldn't have known there was someone trying to break in until they made it inside. When I was a kid we also had my deceased grandparents' car stolen out of the driveway overnight.

She didn’t turn into an “anxious wreck,” because the doors were unlocked; she became frustrated because people were making fun of her incessantly about wanting to do a normal thing that would help make her feel safe. Also lol at this thread where only women’s feelings are described baselessly as being a “wreck” and “screaming and screeching” and “ill.” Maybe just cut to the chase and say women have hysteria.

I was really anxious when I was staying in family in Kiev because all the apartments there have locks with a key hole on both sides. Like there's no manual deadbolt on the inside of your apartment door, if you don't have the key you're locked IN. I work in fire safety and this felt like such a loving death-trap design. We were prisoners in the unit unless you asked Aunt to be let out as she had the only key.

AITAH my 3 month old baby died and I told my in-laws to F**k off(quote:This is the first time I have ever posted, but I am an avid fan of Reddit. My 3 month old baby girl died suddenly (crib death) 2 weeks ago. My husband and I are in a fog. Our first child. While our friends and my family (parents, cousins, siblings, their partners, etc) have been phenomenal, my husband’s family has been a nightmare. Everyone around us has given us space but while making sure our toilet is clean, try to get us to eat/sleep. There have been people with us around the clock in a quiet, non invasive and respectful way. Except... my in laws. My MIL has taken every opportunity to show her grief very dramatically and imo, for show. My husband’s 2 sisters have allowed their children (4 in total- all under 7) to run around, yell and distract. My BIL and FIL have been useless. My family and I are of SE Asian decent, and my husband is white. He has supported the choice to follow Buddhist traditions (alter, incense, 3 day mourning, cremation, monk chanting). My sister and brother explained all aspects of the traditions to my in-laws and asked that they please not wear black or red- white is preferred. That is all which was asked of them. Basically, none wore white, my MIL wore black with a red silk blouse, they all complained about the incense, chanting etc. finally, I caught my sister in law rolling her eyes with some of my husband’s family members while my parents were adding flowers, fruits to our daughter’s alter while monk was chanting. After nearly a week of this behavior, my siblings had enough and asked them to stop behaving so disrespectfully. My MIL started yelling at them and then sobbing. At the moment, my husband was in another room. I lost it. I ran over to them all, screamed at them to F* off and to get out of my house. I understand they are grieving, but they made the most horrible event in our lives even worse. Despite the fact I want to stop breathing and can’t leave the house, I am actually worried that I did an awful thing. My husband is not mad, my family and friends support me but my in-laws are furious at me. Did I cross a line? Thank you.

Say what you will about the lack of regulations in our capitalist hellscape country, but I'm consistently surprised when I hear about buildings in developed countries (even the UK after Grenfell!) that would never be allowed here.

Planning how to leave the house so people will think you're home. but also, even in rural white areas the norms have really changed the last ~15 years. My parents never locked the doors when I was growing up there. Never locked the car in the driveway, didn't lock the house at night or when they were out during the day, the garage didn't even have a lock. But meth and opioids changed a lot. It's still a rural town where you know everybody, but while the burglary rates used to be super low, now there are neighbors who'll totally steal your poo poo to pawn for drugs.

Just found out my (F 28) fiancé (M 30) inseminated his friend without my knowledge.quote:Long time fan of this sub, made a throwaway because me and my fiancé read this sub together. So basically I met my fiancé through a mutual friend I work with let’s call her Meghan. Meghan was not usually my type of person but I was just starting at a job and she was in a higher position than me so I felt pressured to accept when she’d ask to go out to drinks. Through her I met her male best friend since childhood let’s call him Peter and I instantly connected with him in a way I never did before. UPDATE: Just found out my F(28) fiancé M(30) inseminated his friend without my knowledge quote:Hey reddit thanks for all the messages and concerns sorry I couldn’t update last night but I was physically shaking and crying and I just didn’t have it in me.

Uh... locking your front door seems like the most basic, normal thing to do when you live somewhere that has "a front door". All the more so if you live in the US where almost anyone can just go out and buy a gun. Maybe if I lived in the sticks where your next door neighbor is a mile away, I could see it being totally benign to leave the doors unlocked, but even then... what world do you think you live in?

Sunswipe posted:The short stories are good, the novels... not so much. YMMV. With the exception of the Hound of the Baskervilles, I agree. Some of the short stories are clearly just "I would like to get paid let's crap something out," but at least they're short. Anytime Holmes has an interaction with anything American it's pretty loving hilarious though.

Contrarians and spaghetti brains always have to make what should be basic common knowledge something that is contentious, -ist, or whatever the hell they can mentally backflip it into. Personally, I watch and listen to too much true crime poo poo for not locking my poo poo up to be an option. I bet you most of the people arguing this still lock their cars if they drive to their work.
