Justin Barrett18, I’ve got the info for this makeup artist—she works with her partner, a stylist, specifically for weddings. They’re based over in Solin. If you want their number, just let me know! 🙂
Excited, if you’re asking about the San Antonio crowd over in Malibu? I’m honestly not sure how many people their hall can actually hold—maybe someone else on here knows the layout better than I do 🙂
When does the pain actually hit you? Like, how many hours a day are we talking about? Does it stop you from getting stuff done—you know, just regular daily life? Any swelling involved? And where specifically on your hands are the joints acting up?
Back in 6th grade, I was all about the blues—my older brother used to play it constantly—so The Beatles pretty much ruled my world until the end of elementary school. Then, early high school hit and my rotation shifted to: Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Jefferson Airplane, Blue Öyster Cult, The Beatles, AC/DC, Mud, and Eric Burdon. By the later years of high school, I was listening to: 5th Dimension, Joe Cocker, Rolling Stones, Jim Croce, E.L.O., and Azra. During the early college days, it was all about American rock—including Haustor, Pink Floyd, Zane, Billy Joel, and basically everything else from when I first started getting serious about music. Even now, I still lean heavily on the classics whenever I need to focus while studying or just want to unwind.
Gerald Scott4 said:Oh, great. I should probably be extra grateful that I even get to have a choice in the matter. 🙄🙄 Who exactly am I supposed to thank for that?☕ And honestly, your post didn't exactly scream "voice of reason," even if it's clear you were trying to make a point.☕
And yours? Yours just drip with wisdom. Listen, princess—you're only 28. Get over yourself.😉
feralcobra92 said:I honestly don't think it's just about jealousy; I think it’s more about the fact that some people simply march to the beat of their own drum. People tend to get uncomfortable when someone stands out, and they use these kinds of nasty comments as a way to try and force everyone back into a "normal" mold. But honestly, while reading through this thread and seeing how everyone is reacting, there is one thing that keeps bothering me. If a woman decides she doesn't want kids—that is her business, plain and simple. It’s totally understandable if she deals with pressure from her neighbors or family, because they're going to have opinions. She should be the one making the call on when, or even if, she wants to start a family. What I can't wrap my head around, though, is this intense hatred toward children and the sheer aggression in these posts. Telling someone you'd rather they gave birth to a kitten than their own child is just way over the line, yet everyone else seems to jump right in to agree and joke about how cute kittens are. That aggressive, old-school, "traditionalist" attitude really rubs me the wrong way. If our mothers and grandmothers had thought that way, we wouldn't even be here today! Women actually have the power to make decisions about their own bodies now. In the past, fathers would basically marry them off, send them away to some distant town, and leave them to have twelve kids with whoever was chosen for them—half of whom probably wouldn't even survive. No one ever stopped to ask what SHE wanted or if she even felt like being a mother. So, please, just be grateful that we live in such a liberal era where you actually have the right to shape your own life, and let's stop talking nonsense about kittens and acting like children are the enemy.
I'm right there with you. That comment about the kittens? Totally uncalled for.🙄
Gerald Scott4 said:The absolute worst part for me is when people with kids look me in the eye and ask, "Well, who's going to bring you water in bed when you're old?"😲😲😲 And get this—it’s always people who already have children asking me that. You can see their entire motive right there in the question; it’s nothing but pure, calculated selfishness. Then they have the nerve to turn around and call *me* selfish. The hypocrisy is almost impressive, honestly. But hey, whatever.☕
I've been reading through this whole thread, and look, I'm not trying to judge you, but how can you just generalize everyone with children as being driven by nothing but breeding instincts? Can't you see that there are actually people out there who genuinely love being parents? You aren't some 13-year-old kid anymore—you don't need to snap back at every single thing your acquaintances say. Nobody is forcing you to have kids, period. If you don't want them, that's your choice and nobody has the right to tell you otherwise. Just ignore those busybodies and live your life, but please, stop looking down on people who actually *want* to be parents like they're just animals acting on instinct.
I tried switching out my earrings the very next day—and man, those cheap medical-grade ones were awful. They were so thick they actually hurt. Now, I always make sure to give any new pair a good soak in rubbing alcohol before I even think about putting them in.
Your best bet is to hit up the doctor around 2 PM with your referral in hand—and honestly, just be extra nice to the receptionist so they actually squeeze you in.
Michael Hayes8 said:Lawrence Wells, do you actually have some real-world experience dealing with removing a hemangioma, or are you just another guy talking big about stuff you don't know?
P.S. If this is too private for the public eye, please just hit me up in a DM.
I’ve actually seen it done—there was this one little baby about a year old who had a hemangioma. It wasn't nearly as scary as it sounds. They even did the surgery under local anesthesia.
Look, I totally get why you're worried—I’d be feeling the exact same way if I were in your shoes—but at the end of the day, it’s all about making sure he's in the right hands 😉. So, who is your husband actually seeing for the surgery?
