That’s pretty standard for any abusive relationship. The abuser usually waits until they feel like their partner can’t escape before they become awful.

I’m always waiting for my husband, too. Drives me nuts.

The Amish community I know aren’t super strict. They use gas farm equipment and are fine with solar batteries. They just don’t want to be on the power grid.

Oh I know! It’s so weird. Ovens are probably because we get ours from the US, but why we do pool temperature in farenheit is a mystery to me.

As a Canadian myself, it really depends. Most of us only understand farenheit in certain contexts. Some of us can understand it for weather but I think that’s mostly older generations. I use farenheit for oven and pool temperature only. In every other context, it is meaningless to me.

I didn’t know Canada and Australia were in Europe

Lol you guys are ridiculous. Get over yourself. My family has to miss several years of anything that requires a plane so YOU don’t have to be mildly inconvenienced for half an hour? Sure, bud.

Lol no.

The entitlement of the edgy childfree people (not all childfree people; most of you are cool) is hilarious. Screeching about entitled parents daring to take their children in public because they (the edgy childfree people) are entitled to being perfectly comfortable at all times. The irony is amazing.

Or like, you could stay home if normal things that happen in public bother you so much.

It’s unreasonable to expect parents to buy you earplugs. If you know you have sensory issues, you need to pack earplugs just in case. That is your responsibility.

Sometimes I buy liquid eggs in a carton if I need a lot of eggs for one recipe and don’t feel like cracking a dozen eggs. One large egg is about 50g, so 0.8 metric eggs is about 40g.
