I just realized while cooking that a measuring-cup cup (as measured out as 250mL in a glass measuring cup) is the same amount(s) as one of the actual plastic baking measuring cups that go inside each other like Russian dolls lol
I thought they were different somehow (something something imperial metric yadda yadda yaddda)
Your turn to come clean Lemmings!
**EDIT: to clarify, I mean volumetrically for measuring liquids
Until he was 50 years old my father did not know how his mother could see through walls.
When he was little his mother sat in the living room while he was playing with his sister in their playroom. With a wall and a hallway between them. But every time he tried to pull his sister’s hair or something their mother would shout from the living room for him to stop it. He was really angry and confused because he couldn’t fathom how she could see them.
On his 50th birthday his mother revealed that she could see them perfectly fine through the reflection in a wardrobe that stood in the hallway.
Yep, that’ll do it, altho its weird he didn’t see her. Mirrors reflections are usually bidirectional, no? Like if I see you <-> you see me usually…
You get used to seeing something your whole life and it becomes background noise, but it wouldn’t have been like that for the mom’s whole life, she’d be more likely to notice that she can see him that way.
This is a relevant metaphor for childhood trauma and relationship dynamics, wow. Thanks for that
This trick also works on pets. My cat finally caught on though. And she’s only 2.
It depends on the angle. There are definitely times you can see someone/something but they can’t see you.
