What was your biggest childhood fear and do you have it to this day?
  • Oh god the grates in pools! A local rec centre has a wave pool and there's this wall long grate protecting swimmers from the wave machine. The grate is tall as I am and is in deep water, it honestly still scares me.

    What common grocery item(s) is it absolutely fine to buy the cheap/unbranded version of?
  • In Canada, No Name Brand. All the products are in non eye-catching packaging, and are quite cheap. They are quite popular with the college and university housing crowds.

    Anon notices the "grass is always greener" trope in movies
  • I'm a bit late, but try out a motion-activated sprinkler. That and inedible/smelly plants surrounding your garden. Works like a charm for my parents.

    What would be your dream theme park?
  • A park set in a old-growth forest with the rides built around the trees. Shaded and wild feeling. Waterslides and rapids would be extremely fun.

    What are some things that disgust you irrationally?
  • Roasted or fried chicken. Something about the strong smell just whips my brain into anger and disgust. I can't think, talk or smile once I smell it. Especially in a enclosed space.

    Riding a horse is sexual now
  • Oh ew. That's far from true. If you accidentally slam your junk on a hard surface you aren't going to be happy. I've done that a few times while riding a horse. Shit can hurt bad.

  • I've got a father-in-law who is very inconsistent with his moods and body cues. For one day he will laugh at any joke you tell him, and the next he will shout at you for a perceived slight from hours ago and then give you the cold shoulder. He's made me cry from his attitude shifts.

    My wife can't get through to him without a fight happening. His wife (my mother-in-law) is calm and understandable, but is a pushover for him.

    Have any of you navigated hard relations with an in-law? Do you have any tips?

    *Permanently Deleted*
  • Ya I would never be able to reclaim it for myself. For my whole life it was used only as a strong negative.

    It's the same for my wife and queer. It's a word she can't use to describe herself without thinking of old mystery books. "Well that's quite queer"

    A furry subreddit bans defending zoophilia/pedophilia. This surprisingly turns out to be a highly unpopular decision.
  • As a furry, this is unfortunately a large problem in the fandom as of now. We are constantly searching for these fuckers to get them banned from social media sites and conventions. It's practically impossible to keep up on twitter, nevermind if they find out you have a report page for others to know about them.

    Having to report people for posting bestiality and csam is the easy part. It's disturbing how much these people will argue day in, day out how these topics don't affect anyone. There's been an uptick of minors proclaiming they're zoophiles. Most following these content makers.

    It's an uphill battle for us...

    What's something you used to do/see/say but don't anymore because you don't feel it's right?
  • When I was in middle school a friend of mine used to dress up and call herself a gypsy. Due to where we live, we didn't know that word was tied to a real life culture. We thought it meant fantasy-like hippies.

    Years later I found out the actual meaning behind it and freaked out. Sadly I wasn't still in contact with her by that time, or I would've told her. Though her parents would've complained about it...
