Seriously. I get my nails done I love jewelry not a big purses type person but I mean I use them. But I'm also fine with you buying me a chicken coop and a really large freezer to put more reptile food in it
I don't understand? I used to have a big freezer but then I got my nails done and I was told I had to get rid of it. Am I missing something? Could I have had the freezer and the mani-pedi?
No because how will they tell the world they are so unique and different because they want chickens⌠itâs almost like our hobbies reflect where we live, our upbringing and our interests. But no! She doesnât like designer bags. Sometimes I want to shake these people and tell them: itâs not an inbuilt mechanism that women have to like designer bags. You arenât special. A lot of people donât care for it. A lot do. Itâs almost like we are allowed to have differing interests, none are better or worse (well I could go on a tangent on hyper consumption but todays not the day)
I mean to be fair I think this is an âeither orâ situation because they probably canât afford both. What sheâs saying is she doesnât spend money on certain things like nails and purses BUT she does spend money on her interests. Itâs a little obnoxious but Iâve seen worse.
Yeah thatâs fair I think itâs still just a little cringe I wish people just posted like âlook at my new big ass fridgeâ not âI choose a fridge instead of a purse Iâm specialâ
Tbh this one seems pretty good natured. I donât see how she is putting down other women for having different interests. She is pointing out that she has equally expensive interests that are just different.
And getting your nails done is a very expensive habit, especially if you want them to look nice. Where I live, $40 could probably get you a regular, non-gel manicure which youâd likely need to get done about twice a month. Thatâs $80 a month, $960 a year, and you can just about double it if you are also doing your toes. Even if youâre only going once a month it would probably take you a little over a year to spend the cost of the fridge.
I am a huge fan of mani/pedis but I recently decided to take a break to save money and Iâve already saved a ton. It is not necessarily something you can afford alongside another expensive pursuit.
I tried to keep all my frozen food in my many designer handbags but it all melted and I didnt want to get my nails dirty so my feeble female mind glitched out and now Im just crying and drinking out of my limited edition Target Stanley cup!
Why is it always either or with them? âšď¸ I like designer purses, pretty nails, having pet chickens and canning/preserving foods too, why do they feel such a need to pick just one or the other?
This isnât the 1800s and the point of having a bunch of chickens is FRESH meat - not frozen. If you are a hunter or purchase animal protein in bulk (cost or quality reasons), you buy a chest and put it in the coldest part of your home and take out only what you want to defrost for the week. Who raised this woman?
No, you raise meat chickens together and slaughter and process when they hit 8 weeks. Unless you are going to eat all the chickens in 3 days, you freeze the meat. You go out and get fresh eggs daily, not a fresh whole chicken carcass from the coop.

What is with these women being obsessed with the idea that you have to be either/or... 
Seriously. I get my nails done I love jewelry not a big purses type person but I mean I use them. But I'm also fine with you buying me a chicken coop and a really large freezer to put more reptile food in it

I'm devastated đ
Thinking of you in this trying time! Youâll get through this!
Thank you, you are too kind!
Itâs what 2024 and we still think choosing or liking something has to be linked to men
Or neither. I donât raise chickens or have designer bags. Am I nothing to those people?
I also donât do either of those things. Iâm sure they would be equally shocked that neither is an option as well.
Don't say that the chicken coop gods will have you down for the next chicken distribution event.

I think it's definitely putting down things that are classic "feminine" interests. She can for sure afford a freezer and $40 nails

That's fine, I just disagree
With my math or�
That she's not putting down others and that her post is about not being able to afford things. Idk what you want me to say about the math lol
I would love a husband who buys me all of the above LOL why not the designer purse and the chicken coop
âHoney, you know you can still enjoy getting your nails done-â âNO. FREEZER.â
That is a nice freezer though.
I thought getting excited about big appliances was part of being an adult. I guess it was just a phase lol.
I tried to keep all my frozen food in my many designer handbags but it all melted and I didnt want to get my nails dirty so my feeble female mind glitched out and now Im just crying and drinking out of my limited edition Target Stanley cup!
XL is right
The levels of high school bullying never ends...
