Silly Burrito posted:I will say that my daughter’s friend got pregnant and had a kid at 15 or 16. I understand feeling old as a parent but having a kid that young in today’s times blows my mind. I don’t know how she does it. Honey that child got pregnant at 14. She just turned 16 and has a 1 year old. It's so stupid. And she doesn't do it, her mom does a lot. But she dropped out of school and the baby daddy 18 year old does construction and spends his time cross faded af. I'm being judgmental, but gently caress if I'm raising a grandchild at 45. gently caress offff. I was a trap baby myself when my mom was 18 and my dad was 26. It didn't work out because my parents got divorced when I was 14. Across the mom group I was always 5-10 years older than other moms with kids the same age as ours. We brought our oldest home from the hospital on my 28th birthday. Braksgirl fucked around with this message at 17:26 on Jan 2, 2024 |

Mr. Nice! posted:I turn 40 this year. One of the conditions if I'm going to marry my otherwise perfect gf is that we have to get her pregnant within the next three years. I had intended on being dink, but motherhood is a dream of hers. I say this with love and not that you'll necessarily do this, but if you're going to go into parenthood resentful because it was her dream and not yours, then cut her loose now. Parenthood loving sucks like 85% of the time so if you're not all in and prepared to be a useful and equitable partner, then don't do it.

They said it was a "baby pelican." Mmmmmmkay. Also the pelican is on our state flag. There's a big rear end state seal in our board room right outside the door where the bird was. I mean.  You have to pass this to get to the bird. Lawd help us. Braksgirl fucked around with this message at 21:32 on Jan 5, 2024 |

Going back a bit, I went to high school with Brian Littrell of the Backstreet Boys. He was a year or two ahead of me but my bestie had a ginormous crush on him so we prank called his house once. I just had to correct someone's kid in Costco. They were SLAMMED and we were waiting at the snack bar and the kid who was like 13 or so hollers at the workers "Can we be next please?" He did it once and I let it go but when he did it the second time I was like "I'm not your mom, but that's rude, bruh. You'll be next when it's your turn." He just blank stared me but his older brother was like "Yeah! You're rude." So just know, if your kid is being an rear end and you're not around or willing to correct them, I will. It's a free service I offer. You're welcome.

a sexual elk posted:Random topic but I’m buzzed. Few months ago decided to grow my hair out after about a decade of high fades and just using clippers (#2) during the lockdown…the clippers finally breaking helped make the decision for me. Head and Shoulders is extremely drying so you gave yourself dry scalp by using it when you don't have dandruff. Most people who think they have dandruff just have dry scalp anyway and if they would just use a moisturizing shampoo and a separate moisturizing conditioner it would solve the problem. Head and Shoulders just makes the problem worse. A sulfate free shampoo also helps. Clarifying shampoos also strip hair of moisture so those should be avoided as well.

Bird in a Blender posted:I spent most of my childhood using head and shoulders and had the worst dandruff. Switching to better shampoo and conditioner mostly cleared all that up. It’s kind of amazing how bad head and shoulders is. Head and Shoulders isn't bad if you actually HAVE dandruff. But dandruff is more like cradle cap, it's oily and sticky so you need something to dry it out. If you just have flakes what you actually have is dry skin on your scalp which a drying shampoo is going to make worse. You only need clarifying shampoo if you use lots of hair products like mousse or gel or pomade, stuff that's going to give you build up that you need to remove. I have oily hair but I use the Hairitage products at Walmart. They have moisturizing products as well. I pay $11 each for my bottles of shampoo and conditioner but it's worth it for good hair.

How was the party? We will probably go to a parade next weekend but then the week after that we're taking our kids to Universal Orlando where they also have "Mardi Gras." I feel like one of these parades will be good. Also, I am fine. I had a very painful bout of gastritis and I truly thought that was it for me and I was gonna go to the big theme park in the sky, y'all. It was awful. Between this and my gallbladder attacks, I think I'm going to have to stop mounjaro. It doesn't like me. Braksgirl fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Feb 4, 2024 |

I love my Apple Watch a whole lot. Mine is a Series 3 and she's showing her age so I will need to upgrade at some point. But I love having my texts and poo poo right at my wrist if it's not convenient to have my phone out. I love that I can use it to pay for things places and it can get me into a Disney park. It's probably the most useful piece of tech I own besides my actual phone.

As a shock to no one, I have a very specific dishwasher loading method that includes grouping items together in specific zones, including sorting silverware and utensils. No one else loads it like me, and while I very much dislike it, I don't dislike it enough to always be the one who does the dishes. I am coping the best I can. Thoughts and prayers through this difficult time, please.

Intruder posted:Aren't teflon pans generally machine washable? I don't because they're easy to hand clean and I'd rather stick a larger number of smaller dishes in the dishwasher instead but I thought they were dishwasher safe No, they're not. The high heat is bad for them and I have found that the pans don't last as long if you machine wash them.

Leperflesh posted:Jorts are just how you salvage worn out jeans, like, that's always been and will always be a thing Catching up because I haven't been here in a week. Actually, everyone cares about how you (general you) look, even you whether you want to admit it or not. Wearing flattering clothing is important. My coworker is about to get her rear end fired because she rolls up to work in poo poo that doesn't fit her and makes her look like a child in her mom's cast off clothing. Technically, she's complying with the dress code but she looks sloppy and unkempt and it is 100% affecting how she's treated at work. One day she came in in a pair of pants about 4" too long and she clipped the ends up with binder clips because in her mind that solved the problem. She's about 5' tall so all pants are going to be long. She will just order stuff on Amazon and if she can get it on her body she wears it, no matter if it fits well or not. I'm a plus size 5'3" round girl so I understand the struggle to find clothes that fit and if I can do it she can too. My point is that dressing yourself is a life skill, not just vanity. How you present yourself through clothing and hygiene is extremely important. My coworker thinks fashion is for airheads and she's an intellectual but that's just an excuse. I agree fast fashion is a problem but if that's your hang up then invest in good poo poo and have it tailored. Dressing well is not just for dates and job interviews and it's a skill you have to keep sharp because if you only use it some of the time you lose it. I'm dressing up this Friday for a girls night at a speakeasy and I plan to look fine as gently caress. "Who cares what you wear" is for people who've never found an outfit that makes them feel amazing. That makes me sad. Braksgirl fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Feb 18, 2024 |

There are other things happening but it's a factor. Hygiene is an issue as well. They don't necessarily have a "make sure your pants hems don't drag the ground clause" yet but there may be one in the future. It's not my call to make.

Android Apocalypse posted:Well, what did you get at the Asian grocery store? A variety of ramen, mostly Buldak flavors the other grocery stores don't carry. I can't find the carbonara flavor in the pink pack any of the places where I usually buy the black packs and I wanted to try it. I also got a bowl of bulgogi udon I'm excited to try. I was also out of sesame seeds so I got those. My friend found a line of hot sauces her husband likes that they normally pay out the nose for. The Asian market had them for .99 each.
