  I told this story on here way back when I first moved to Lemmy, but I went through a period of eating some sea salted beet chips (fucking delicious btw) for lunch every day. I didnt grow up eating beets, no idea why I tried them, but I didnt realize what was happening when I started pissing red.

  Got in with my PCM and was panicking like “I have blood in my urine and I’m not on my cycle, and it looks different anyway!”

  So he was like “Aight, what did you eat yesterday?”

  I felt like such a fucking idiot wasting his time. But a bunch of kind Lemmings on here assured me that it happens a LOT, and its always better to get checked.

  That being said, there should definitely be a warning on those chip bags for those of us who lack critical thinking skills lmao

  Aight, I said I got a zero, and my husband says we both have one. So help me settle this riveting dinner discussion we’re having:

  20. Paid with a paper check - I say I have because we’ve made earnest money deposits via check, or down payments on loans via check. And he says “no” because the intent is using a check to pay for things like groceries. He says weve never balanced a checkbook so it doesn’t count.

  To think that vein popped because she was promised a helicopter arrival to her party and Anthony didn’t deliver. His coworkers coming in the background and shutting the door to the conference room, giving these two the side-eye while they were arguing sent me. The level of delusion this woman had was next level and I just remember sitting there at the time being like “Is this what rich people are like?”

  Haha, the fans remembered this from the premiere to the end of season reunion. Andy Cohen brought it up a lot in the comments, lmao. I think we all legit thought we were going to witness this woman literally “pop a vein” on live TV at the time. So fucking campy, I love it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨check it before you wreck it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lmao! Thank you! This is such a sweet comment, and I too love when I can feel someone get super stoked over something “silly” online. Something wholesome about just knowing that a legit person is on the other side of the computer getting happy over something inconsequential, haha.

  Finally! My time on Lemmy has come! For those who do not know, the phrase “Who Gon’ Check Me Boo?” was uttered by none other than Sheree Spring-Summer-Winter-Joggers Whitfield, of Real Housewives of Atlanta fame, while arguing with her party planner during the Season 2 premiere in 2009. The phrase temporarily shut down the man’s argument, before the conflict then escalated to the point that both were shouting at one another, leading to the iconic vein popping out of Ms. Bone-Collector Whitfield’s neck.

  (I know that’s not the point of this post, but the Bravo communities are the thing I miss the most about the other bad place, so when I see a RH reference, I fucking jump on it)

  True! Some actual info would be nice since this could plausibly be several people it seems.

  Drunk brain just lit up last night and was like “The time has come to dispense Real Housewives of DC lore upon the public”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨White House Faith Office⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are we sure this isnt referencing Real Housewives of DC Michail Salahi? Who Broke Up A Whitehouse Dinner?

  And also subsequently married Neil Schon from Journey?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beautiful stories like this just make you smile⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s actually legit fucking insane. I’ve been deployed 3 times, and the amount of infidelity I witnessed from both spouses, every time, was…something to behold. The first time I went I naively thought people were blowing the rate out of proportion before I got there but it was like…so many people.

  Like I get that military life is difficult, most people get married hella young so the partners can stay together, and then deployments happen. Deployments happen right after one spouse uproots their entire lives to move halfway across the world with no support system. It still sucks to see because once it all comes out, it tears families apart every time.

  Well, as someone who adores horror movies of all styles from pure camp to serious, and as someone who feels hella nostalgia for MD, I thank you for putting The Bay on my radar!

  My husband is a super cinephile though, so Im super hell be interested in the others (provided he hasnt already seen them).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just a little guy⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up on the East Coast of the United States. MD and FL to be specific. Going to the beach was a regular thing in our household, whether it was the Chesapeake Bay or the Atlantic Ocean somewhere in West Palm Beach. My grandad has a house on the actual bay. Grew up spending every family gathering there. The adults would visit/catch up, and us kids would be in the water. I was NEVER scared of the water.

  Then, as an adult, Im sitting at an inprocessing for a base in Okinawa, Japan, and theyre going over local hazards in the region.

  I had never heard of the Blue Ringed Octopus before.

  And from that moment on, I became terrified of things in the ocean.

  My husband always laughs about that story because its rare that they even make it into the waters around Oki, but that genuinely really was the moment that my brain was like “Omg, you have to worry about more than sharks in the ocean.”

  Fuck man, even the tiniest possible cruise cabins still have room for a stand up shower, toilet, and sink. And they fit a queen sized bed.

  Knock down a wall or two and don’t make people share a communal bathroom like they’re recruits in basic training.
