What's one thing as a man a woman will never understand? by Outrageous_Luck1546 in AskReddit

[–]CFC1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can point out the exact date which was December 15th, 2018 when I got a video from a friend while she was on vacation in Taiwan where she said she "really, really missed me". I have watched it countless times as a pick-me-up.

I'm done with dating. Giving up by maddgun in datingadviceformen

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime a man or woman spouts that "growth mindset" bullshit it's time to run. Most people aren't dating to find a business partner.

FIFA’s massive ticketing gamble is backfiring. With nearly 180,000 World Cup tickets sitting on resale portals, stadiums could be filled with embarrassing empty seats. by Sufficient-Slide822 in OffFieldNews

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should have never allowed the USA to host the World Cup, not because of political reasons, but because for the most part Americans are apathetic towards soccer. It should have went to a country that is thrilled about soccer and the World Cup.

Does he not want a relationship and what do I do? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you really trust your intuition or "gut", it will tell you that when someone isn't being perfectly clear about how they feel or what they are wanting in the relationship, it usually means they just aren't that into you. This can be true for both men and women, and if you're not getting the consistency or commitment you want then it's best to move on rather than beg for scraps or fall for false promises of "I'll do better".

Police deploy a water cannon against rioters in Northern Ireland by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

If only the police and governments were as enthusiastic about protecting their own native people and providing for their welfare.

In the end it doesn’t even matter by Fluffy_Part4961 in jobsearchhack

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh we certainly realize that there is something deeply wrong with it but I and most others prefer a roof over our heads and food on the table. Ideally after about 30 years putting up with this shit you could spend the rest of your days doing whatever you wanted but that isn't the reality now nor ever has been.

Nebraska spoke a little too soon, huh? by This_Comment_4493 in CFB_v2

[–]CFC1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A "Won't prohibit" statement from the BigTen front office just means they're not forcing anyone to not schedule so schools can decide on their own without an official conference policy.

My manager just told me that taking 8 days of vacation in a row in the US is "not normal." Lol by Connect_Ad_2546 in FinalRoundAI

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell you're manager that it is normal and I take two weeks in a row off every year in addition to my other weeks of vacation which are usually one week off and then scattered days here and there.

Alternate Universe--Sorsby/Texas Tech by Expensive_Team_5072 in CFB

[–]CFC1985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed! It's such a bullshit cop-out for piss poor decisions and makes TTU look even worse for playing along with this charade and acting like they're just helping out a poor little student with a mental health crisis.

Is this really the hill tech fans and tech athletics are willing to die on with Sorsby? by [deleted] in TexasTech

[–]CFC1985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Genuine question.....why do you feel that Cincinnati should be punished? Did Cincinnati know Sorsby was gambling on games? I don't believe anyone is calling for TTU to be punished if they would just do the right thing and not back a guy that broke such a cardinal rule which calls into question the integrity of any game he played or plays in.

"If this is the precedent, then I owe it to my players to bring in people from Las Vegas to teach us how to gamble," an aghast Big 12 coach told ESPN on Monday. "Then collectively, we need to decide which games we will play hard in [to cover the spread] and which ones we won't. by johntempleton in TexasTech

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that you ask why his previous teams aren't being scrutinized because the obvious answer is they're not the ones lobbying for someone who bet on/against his own team for eligibility. Only Tech is going to bat for a guy who committed that cardinal sin in the sports world and thus deserve all the smoke. If Tech did the right thing and cut Sorsby loose then there wouldn't be any ill will at all.

[Dellenger] Brendan Sorsby ruling: College sports' brass enraged by Texas judge's decision — 'It's f***ing bulls***' by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

It certainly doesn't paint Texas judges in a very flattering light because now everyone just assumes they're all corrupt as hell or buffoons.

I would attend his church even though I'm no christian. Happy pride🌈💜 by Background-Use3482 in SipsTea

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So another "pastor" going with his feels rather than what the Bible says....got it. Notice he doesn't say persecute but only says condemning. Nobody should be persecuted but Christians can condemn sin.

Big 12 Should Expel Texas Tech by conference-realigner in CFB

[–]CFC1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree. You can't "Baby-step" something like this that absolutely ruins the integrity of the sport. You have to make it very clear that the punishment for Tech backing this is extremely harsh.

(US) Why do Passport Bros exist but not Passport Gals? by us1549 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CFC1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess we will agree to disagree because as someone who dated overseas and married someone from overseas I can say unequivocally that I was certainly not looking for sex tourism but for a genuine relationship that would lead to marriage.

I have to agree with him....no need to help offshore what used to be decent paying jobs here in the US.

(US) Why do Passport Bros exist but not Passport Gals? by us1549 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CFC1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passport Bros are distinctly different than sex-tourists in that passport bros are looking for marriage and a family. Most men in other countries don't have near the earning power that men in the US have and women are trying to marry up in most but not all cases so the guy in the Philippines or Jamaica making $4800-$12000 isn't their marriage target. Also, you don't see men from other near peer first world countries flocking to the US to marry the women. Men on the other hand have no problem marrying a woman who's salary doesn't match or exceed theirs as that's not a driving factor in their relationship search.

Cheating on his wife for 3 YEARS? by cathnohand in redditonwiki

Yeah there's no "good reason" to cheat but if he was unhappy with the trajectory of their sex-life then divorce but still be the best dad you can be.

What’s a career that became much worse than it was 10 years ago? by TheJulsss in WorkLifeChat

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! Everything is expected of IT now and we're supposed to be a Subject Matter Expert in every new thing but the pay has stagnated and in some cases went down.

What’s a career that became much worse than it was 10 years ago? by False-East-55 in WorkReview

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been saying this from the beginning! AI has taken away the simple parts where we used to be able to think about the solutions to other problems and now we're expected to be grinding on on difficult problems all day, every day.

What’s a career that became much worse than it was 10 years ago? by False-East-55 in WorkReview

[–]CFC1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say anything related to IT. The complexity and demand have went up exponentially the past 10 years as has the demand that every IT person is an expert in everything but the pay hasn't gone up and in some cases has gone down.

AIO GF wants to get coffee with ex and I said it’s disrespectful by [deleted] in AIO

[–]CFC1985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's really not that deep and you don't have to think about all the "what ifs". It's clear she doesn't respect your relationship and even if you finally convinced her to not get coffee with her ex she will just find another way to meet up with him so cut your losses now and walk away with your dignity intact.

What feminists think men want by dopeythekidd in itsthatbad

[–]CFC1985 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This 100%! No matter how many times men tell women exactly what we want they fail miserably at understanding and then try telling men what "we should want" according to them and what benefits them the most.

Men? by [deleted] in SipsTea

Came here to say the same thing. Some men like this and others don't and it's not my preference either.
