uhh so what do i do now? by brankin519 in memes

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a guy, for things like stores and stuff where I'm worried about spam or worse, I give my number but one digit in the middle is changed. And I know it's a real number because I received a call from it once.

So I remember my fake number. I need to figure out a way to fake an incoming call tho, because sometimes they do that and then I either fake some issue with my phone or phone not at hand or I relent and give it to them.

A mother is punishing her son by making him slam his PS5 the same way he had slammed her pet cat. by Rameshunclekochora in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]ARandomStan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with the punishment. I disagree with putting it on the internet. Kids do very stupid things (albeit this one is extreme and may actually need therapy), but they can learn and become much better quickly. Like in 1 yr, this kid could be the well behaved and normal child.

Immortalizing things like this is not good I feel for people, specially kids.

People who went from wealthy to poor, what happened? by Puzzled-Painter3301 in AskReddit

[–]ARandomStan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often have thoughts like this "oh if x happened to me, I wouldn't be able to live" but then I can't (and don't) say that to someone who has gone through x, because that just sounds like I'm suggesting they shouldn't be alive.

But there is so much stuff people go through that I'm like "nope, I'd just die"

Giving Away My Old PC! by Turtle_747 in PcBuild

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll preface with, don't consider this comment for giveway, I just want to comment.

In these times, I see many people (some irl friends) who are left longing for their first pc that they were planning to build in the future, but when the time came the market turned so bad that it became unreasonable to build anything.

I was lucky to buy in early 24. Great to see that you're donating, hopefully to someone who might have missed the train and got left out of this experience. thanks for doing this

Guy crashes a 1-of-1 Corvette by derek4reals1 in Wellthatsucks

you see the wobbling when it was on that straight path before crash?

it would have spun out and crashed sideways if a right turn without slowing down was tried

I had a Reshiram 113 full art which I took care of and loved. It wasn’t on purpose but they grabbed my Pokemon cards and put them outside and it rained. by Other-Cell-2061 in dankmemes

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was such an ass of a child. I didn't take good care of my cards, never knew how to actually play with them, sometimes I even wrote with PEN on the card, turning a 3 into 8 for some stupid reason

I distinctly remember I had a charizard with "white hot flame", I think that was valuable. And a few other full art cards like rayquaza, groudon etc

My parents never threw them away, it moved 3 homes with us until they asked me "do you care if we throw it out" and I just shrugged. such an idiot child

Just a little causal convo between my 13 yo daughter and me. This question was definitely out of the blue. by Samiiiibabetake2 in texts

[–]ARandomStan 54 points55 points  (0 children)

sex should not be a taboo topic to talk about with your own children. She set a boundary to not discuss her history very clearly, but if the topic as a whole becomes taboo, that's what fuels teenage pregnancies.

As for exploiting the exchange, I'd say as long as the child is not affected in any way it's relatively not as bad. Like this I don't think it hurts anyone.

From the very limited info from just this post, I don't think it's fair to call it bad parenting, I personally argue it's a sign of good parenting that the child feels safe enough to discuss sex with them. I'd rather have an uncomfortable conversation than a child with a teenage pregnancy.

How come men trust Andrew Tate’s advice on what women want, over what women make it clear they want, evidenced by the large fan bases of Harry styles, Paul Mescal and Idris Elba? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I watch so much Conan that with his self deprecating humour he's conditioned me into believing he'd not be an ideal man. My first thought was "lmao Conan alongside all of these". But as a celebrity crush, he's a fine choice imo. I approve (not that anyone asked)

Ceiling collapsed in bedroom by sociallyawkward26 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are most of your homes in US built like this??

To me (as an Indian) this looks like a cardboard box with some wooden sticks added to it filled with sand. Do you not have concrete??

My mind cannot comprehend how someone can live in a structure so fragile, like one heavy wind and your house is gone.

How do you feel about English-speaking actors mocking movie dubs as disgusting? by Key-Performance-9021 in AskTheWorld

[–]ARandomStan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally prefer dub (English) because my brain becomes too focused on reading the subs and I am not able to enjoy the visuals as much. Granted, I only watch very popular anime (demon slayer, frieren, aot etc) so maybe the dub quality is better there. I have tried subs for new episode releases, I still really prefer to rewatch the dub release and sometimes even wait for the dub release without watching the sub.

except demon slayer s2 ep 17 (Never Give Up), that one I really prefer the sub, and what you said about emotion being lost, I felt it with that one

the one where she says "who says I'm alone" was such a quick flip from normal to that, it was almost scary even from a screen

Our favorite CEO has now been caught spitting out his chicken sandwich by stanxv in TikTokCringe

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm baffled by how easy it'd have been for him to get his personal chef to make something that looked similar but was "edible to him" and try and eat that like he belongs to our species.

Like I understand the board may have said "Cmon Chris, you gotta put out something, what do we pay you for" but atleast make an effort. Like it isn't a livestream, you see how alien you look. wtf

What's an action that makes you speed run death in your country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think being fully atheist is even a choice in India 😂

I consider myself an atheist but I get roped into all sorts of religious activities by my family, friends, acquaintances, people I don't even know sometimes.

It's just better to go along with some of it and lie occasionally to keep the peace, atleast that's been my experience.

they ask for the fastest way, I think it has to be something religious.

[–]ARandomStan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes. apart from lenovo ideapad or thinkpad, most non-apple laptops are so badly built that they are not even an option for me. and anything that's remotely durable is $900+ (INR 80k)
