I am ashamed I never thought about this before. His name would have to change for different languages. 

Beautiful Ballet Portrait Of Performers Claiming The Streets Of NYC

Ballet is an intimately physical art that has been merged with the beauty of music, photography and dance, captured by Puerto Rico born, NYC-based photographer Omar Robles’ camera on the streets of New York city. 

DO NOT DO THIS.

This makes me so angry.

If you work in a movie theater and you do this I have no respect for you.

My younger brother is Type 1 Diabetic.

When we go to a movie theater, we always get him diet soda. If he were to get regular when we asked for diet, we would not give him the insulin he would need for it. If that happens, his blood sugar level could go so high he could go into a coma, go blind, or even die.

If somebody gave him regular soda instead of diet without telling us, that person could be responsible for a nine-year-old being killed or blinded.

Just thinking about that makes me so angry. I get scared every time we take him to a movie in case the people working there saw this picture and decide to do the same thing.

I am very sensitive to lactose, not Lactose intolerant but because of stomach ulcers that are still healing. A couple years ago I went to Starbucks right after my classes with some friends and asked for a green tea latte with soy milk. The barista, for some reason out of malice and/or hate for her life so she took it out on me, gave me whole milk in my latte.

5 minutes after my first sip of latte, my stomach cramped BAD. Not the “Oh! time to poop!” kind of cramp but it felt like someone had stabbed me with a knife and twisted it. Now I’ve had this happen before so I knew the cause of it. I went up to the barista clutching my gut screaming at her that she put dairy in my latte rather than soy LIKE I REQUESTED. She denied it and called me a “pretentious white girl for wanting soy”and so my friends got the manager. I had to explain that I had stomach ulcers that were still healing and if I were to go to the hospital for this incident, they would be responsible for it.

Manager flipped his shit and the barista was terrified out of her mind. Pretty sure both thought i was gonna sue. Manager actually fired her on the spot because of the negligence. My friends managed to get me home in one piece while I stayed home for 3 days in absolute agony and missed my midterm.

Last month I went out to dinner with a friend at an italian restaurant that had a small gluten free menu. I had been there once before and had their gluten free pasta and it was great! I think one of the managers had been there and was super helpful when taking my order to make sure that everything was gluten free for me. When I ordered the gluten free pasta again this time though, the waitress who took my order all but rolled her eyes at me. I didn’t think much of it at the time, because the restaurant was so accommodating before, I just assumed it would be the same this time.

But sure enough, they brought out my pasta, I ate it, and about an hour later I had extreme stomach pains and was throwing up (in a movie theater no less).

Barfing and agonizing pain aside, eating gluten when you have celiac causes a lot of internal damage that’s hard to notice. The biggest thing is that it damages your intestines, preventing your body from absorbing nutrients properly, which can take months to heal.

I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome - and while it will never kill me outright or directly, it can cause me hours, or days, of constant cramping in my stomach, as well as dehydration if I don’t push fluids because of constant diarrhea.

One of my triggers is sesame seeds. I can have some but I usually have to have them replace the top bun with a bottom bun, and that usually is enough for me - either that or a whole different bun that lacks seeds.

And most people are kind about this, and most places do this. Five Guys do warn me the lower half of the bun contains some seeds (again, I just can’t have alot of seeds).

But my local Burger King never completely grasped this until recently. And what made it worse was it was one of the only fast food joints grandma liked to eat at (especially for breakfast, as she liked their breakfast sandwiches over McDonald’s, and since I was more of a lunch… lady… oh my god that’s awful)

I don’t think this was ever done out of malice on their parts though, I think it’s just a request they probably don’t get often and their order placement system does not really have an option (they should fix that, even McDonald’s does). Worst comes to shove I go home and replace it with my own seedless buns.

But still, seeing all these other stories… my god people. Don’t fuck with people’s food.

I have friends who are diabetic or pre-diabetic, have coeliac disease, and nut allergies… and that’s the ones I know of off the top of my head.

hello! since it helped so many people last year, i thought i’d make this post once again.
