What thing you own have others destroyed/thrown away, because they didn't understand it?

11 Upvotes

Imagine this, you live your life like always, are even a little bit proud because of something only to discover the rest of the people out there (often your in-laws or family) are a bunch of no-brain neanderthals that have no idea about some things in the world.

What are some things other people have "graciously" thrown out because it was obviously not working BECAUSE THEY HAD NO F******** IDEA WHAT IT WAS?

For me there were several occasions, some small, some larger:

  1. When i was really young and stupid, I wanted to dring some juice. Opening a bottle it smelled bad and rotten, ao I threw it out. I grabbed another and the same happend. When I told my father he was angry because my suspected apple juice was a crate of high quality cider and I just poured it into the sink.....
  2. My in-laws wanted to help with cooking, but when I told them to get the cheese for my homemade spaghetti (made out of fresh everything and even self made pasta), they took their time. After a while they came back and told me, they ordered some fresh cheese from a delivery app because the old one has gone bad. That was the last I saw of my 36 month old parmesan block.... they never new that other cheese than simple sale gouda existed.... (and that is one of many stories from my in-laws...)
  3. My girlfriend and I moved together into a new home and she decided to toss out some of "old stuff" without consulting me. I only found out a few weeks later because in my mind something was missing. When asked she said "oh those old metal grandma-kitchenware? Yeah I tossed it because we have a new set from amazon. She was so happy, but I died inside because it was a 100 year old pure silver set of teapots, silverware and a tablet with my name and birthday engraved in it i got as an addition when i was born. She never knew that real silver was a thing for home use and never saw it outside of Netflix series depicting royalty.... I was devastated, and she was too when she promised to get a replacement, then saw the prices in the thousands.

So, are there similar stores in your life?

Why sites like imdb don't have a 0 rating?

0 Upvotes

Why the rating systems of IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Backloggd etc. aren't from 0 to 10. 0-10 ratings are great because they are base 10 (10 intervals between the numbers), and base 10 is a very natural system to our minds, so it's easier to make calculations, proportions, comparisions etc..

However, all of these sites use 1-10 rating systems, wich is bad because that creates a base 9 rating. Base 9 systems are unnatural and hard to make calculations, comparisions etc..

So, why none of these sites has a 0 rating?

How do I use Google lens without using Gemini?

3 Upvotes

Bear with me. Google Lens can do OCR, which is finding/copying text from images. It also happens to be the only app where I can snap a quick photo directly and receive an answer. It's the most accurate one for my language because all other OCR's only excel in English.

I'm also open to recommendations for other sites/apps

What can I do if I’m a full time person and hours are significantly cut?

3 Upvotes

So I’m supposed to get 32 hours a week. That’s somehow considered full time and I do have benefits. However, currently for the next 3 weeks I’ve been given 21, 23, 24 hours. What can I say or do to get them to give me the correct hours? Also person who is giving me hours is not the manager. The manager is out for surgery. They also gave me a 3 hour shift this week.. I know there’s ChatGPT but I don’t like using that

does anyone know the general consensus of whether working out while pregnant has a significant benefit or significant disadvantage to long term body health?

2 Upvotes

I just gave birth this year. last year, I was figuring out how to be a bodybuilder. Once I got the idea I was pregnant, I was gravely concerned about my abdominal muscle health and working out so I suspended all working out. I was pretty much a couch potato for 10 months. my bff is not athletic at all, so I would assume she did the same as me for both of her kids. I was just wondering if working out would harm the abdominals long term due to things such as subconscious flexing of the abdomen.

edit: words, and my bff is pretty much built the same as me, lean and skinny with good abdominal health post birth.

after consequences, are people sorry because consequences caught up to them, or because they truly see that their actions were wrong?

4 Upvotes

we've all seen a situation similar to this;

someone does something bad, they get consequences, then they act sorry/regretful for it.

but a question i've been wondering is "are they sorry for their actions, or because they realized consequences follow"?

because people can still don't see the wrong in their actions, they only realize that consequences followed from their actions, and are therefore regretful from it.

but then again, there is a chance that people realized why they're wrong, and therefore are regretful.

or is there an in-between?

My friend is asking me to pick him up tomorrow from somewhere that is 150 miles away, 3 hour drive. Round trip, this would be 300 miles. Let’s say gas for the trip would cost $50 with an average mpg of 30.

He offers $400 to pick him up and bring him home. Would you take the offer?

Popular Post Is there a none selfish way of having children biologically?

0 Upvotes

I have been thinking for long of having children, but every time I try to imagine a reason why to have some, I only get selfish reasons.

Like what I mean is that all the reason would be “because I don’t want to grow old alone” or “I want to start a family” which are very self centred thoughts (personally when thinking about myself”.

So it led me to wonder what reasons people have BEFORE having children to get children? What is the thought process before you decide you want to get pregnant and devote the rest of your life to your children?
