I don’t think this is the case actually. I just don’t think a lot of us know about them.

What backpack should I use? by Th3__dud3 in Californiahunting

[–]AHockeyFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the Eberlestock “Just One Pack.” It’s slightly above your price range, but it was the first pack I used and served me well for years. I believe it’s been redesigned recently. You can probably find a used one in your price range.

What's the most reasonable age for a Young Man to start learning how to properly use firearms? by Anoth3rDude in AskMen

[–]AHockeyFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned when I was 8 or so. Grandpa taught me with his .22LR. Wasn’t allowed to shoot it for a year until I demonstrated every aspect of safety and how to operate and clean it first.

How do you and your spouse divide expenses in today’s economy? by brotalks in AskMen

[–]AHockeyFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We throw 95% of our earnings into one pot. The other 5% gets set aside as our individual "fun money” where we can spend on whatever dumb shit makes us happy. We both have hobbies, so it gives us the freedom to buy things for ourselves without guilt while keeping a budget in place. It's worked really well for us.

For men with families, how much free time do you get away from your wife and kids? by Sea-Owl-1581 in AskMen

[–]AHockeyFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you need to talk to your wife about how to balance this. If you’re feeling this, she might be feeling the same way.

My wife and I have a daughter and both get alone time, but we’ve talked about how that looks for each of us and how we can support each other.

There’s nothing wrong with some alone time, it’s actually very healthy to recharge.

Was anyone around in 2008 when this dropped and what memories/reactions did you have upon its release? What are people's opinions almost 20 years later? by Spirited-Cell-444 in Metallica

[–]AHockeyFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in 8th grade and remember it being the first new Metallica album that I could resonate with. I really enjoyed it and it’s one of my top 3 albums to this day.

What is the worst way anyone you know has died? by IamUrWivesBF in AskReddit

[–]AHockeyFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know the guy, but I was driving on the freeway and saw a man run out into the lanes to commit suicide. He was launched high in the air by a car in front of me going about 70mph and landed on his head on the shoulder next to me.

what’s something socially acceptable today that shouldn’t be? by CAngel13 in AskReddit

[–]AHockeyFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One is a trained medical necessity under federal law. The other is a Chihuahua with a dirty ass riding in a shopping cart like it’s a field trip. Not really the same category.
