I feel sorry for women who don't have pockets
  • I found a pair of Wrangler pants on Amazon that has front pockets that are squares of fabric sewn on the outside and they fit my entire phone with room to spare. It's the first time I've been able to put a phone in my pants pocket and walk without worrying I was bending my phone.

  • I feel sorry for women who don't have pockets
  • This. My husband is approximately the same height and weight I am; we have the same waist measurements and if I'm being honest he looks hella good in my pants.

    However, I can barely get his jeans over my hips and they're too tight in the thighs. Not too mention the awkward kangaroo pouch crotch area.

    We both wear men's goodfellow PJ bottoms from target (because POCKETS) and I wear a medium, he wears a small because he doesn't have hips.

  • What did we eat today kids?
  • Consistently relying on weed to give you an appetite can make you dependent on it to feel hungry. Note how most heavy long term smokers you know are thin as rails.

    If you happen to have this problem, however, a meal replacement drink like Soylent can be a godsend. It's pretty hard to eat a nutritious 2000 calories if you have to wait until you're really high at 9pm to start eating.

  • Stoner
  • Yep. I I had no appetite, severe insomnia, headaches and sweats for about 1-2 weeks when I came off of my heavy use, decade long pot habit. It felt like the flu. I'm glad I found r/leaves or I wouldn't have known those were withdrawal symptoms that would eventually go away!

    I never plan to touch the stuff again.

  • Android users, What's stopping you from switching to iPhone?
  • Lack of customization, lack of options, lack of compatibility.

    With iPhones you choose from iPhone 1, 2, 3, or 4. They're all the same, and frankly they all suck. They're overpriced and the charger always breaks.

  • Horse people: are these horses in distress or excited?

    Sorry for the Facebook link, I hope you can view the video.

    I noticed the horses in this video all seem to be "prancing" a little bit, like the riders are struggling to stay in control of them. Dozens of horses in this parade, acting similarly.

    Every horse I've seen in a parade looks calm, mellow, or bored. So, are these horses excited and happy to be there? Or are the riders forcing/encouraging this behavior? Are the horses in distress?

    For context, this is part of a festival in Tomato, Portugal.

    I logged in to Reddit today
  • This makes me sad. Information is being erased that will keep people who could've been helped by it from ever finding it.

    The people who it will hurt the most have nothing to do with Reddit.

  • Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • But why are all the blue states cold?

    My husband and I thought about Arizona, or Virginia to get away from one of the highest CoL areas in the country.. but eventually decided to focus on Connecticut instead, because we don't want to be in a red state. With the exception of CA, none of the liberal states are sunny and all of them are expensive!

  • Reddit users lost?
  • That's a good question about users with the same name. I haven't wanted to try other instances because I thought I'd need to think up multiple new usernames... But maybe I don't? Interesting.

  • New Zealand bans plastic bags for fresh produce in supermarkets
  • The bags I get from Fred Meyer are so awkwardly shaped and crinkly I haven't been able to find another use for them. I used to reuse the old plastic bags all the time. To scoop cat litter into, small garbage can liners.. but these are wide and shallow, you can't even tie them closed. They're so ridiculous they barely hold groceries.

  • Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts down
  • I am so glad to hear that! There is so much information on Reddit, my heart aches at the thought of people wiping it away.

    Even during the blackouts, I sometimes googled things only to find Reddit posts with the answers weren't available to view. It was startling

  • New Zealand bans plastic bags for fresh produce in supermarkets
  • My state has plastic shopping bag bans across (most of?) the state and I feel like it's completely backfired.

    Now, instead of those thin plastic bags everyone used to get, people are charged 20 cents for a "reausable" bag, which is still a shitty bag that no one seriously reuses or wants, but it's thick plastic, like thick, crunchy, and indestructible. Maybe double the plastic waste.

    I TRY to remember my (actual) reusable bags, I really do. But sometimes I forget and I wind up with these big thick bags I don't want to reuse and wind up throwing out or "recycling" (which probably means shippibg then to the Philippines).

    I also do curbside grocery pickup frequently and the ONLY option is to get those thick "reusable" bags with your order. Otherwise the grocery employee (who can't accept tips) will need to individually place each item in my car one at a time.

    The thin plastic disposable bags were better. Paper bags would be better. This 20 cents for a "reausable" bag loophole is total bullshit.

  • How is it possible that roughly 50% of Americans can’t read above a 6th grade level and how are 21% just flat out illiterate?
  • It sounds so much harder than just reading.

    But I believe it. I work in law and often need clients to respond in writing to questions (so we have a record of their answers). The barely-coherent poorly-spelled responses we get are astonishing - and often from pretty well educated, smart people with high level jobs (after all, they can afford a lawyer).

  • Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts down
  • I wish people wouldn't delete their accounts. I've put information out there that I WANT people to see and find. Reddit admins shouldn't be able to take away the wealth of knowledge redditors have given the world in the last decade.

  • I bet a lot of teenage depression comes from people no longer thinking you're cute and smiling when they see you.

    It's such a subtle shift they probably don't even realize it happened. But suddenly people stop reacting with joy and love when they see you and it takes a while to adjust to that
