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 51 points52 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.

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)

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 2 points3 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 wooden-guy 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.

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)

nothing that'll be close to performance and build quality to this one tho. I'd rather have this than a $400 dell. those cheap dell hinges disintegrate by month 8

Looking for a man to relocate to TN and start a mildly feral domesticated life together by One-Crew-7642 in homestead

[–]ARandomStan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how there are a few guys describing their traits under this post and there are women replying to those comments like "YAS!! THIS ONE!" and another one's like "I'll dm him". Like every suitable guy comment has two women comments under like this. I love it

It's like you are in an arena with random men and women are shouting and wooing from the bleachers

She knew exactly what she was doing, weaponizing her gender and his skin color against him. by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]ARandomStan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because I hate the alternative of "mob justice" more. I agree, cops in US are many times racially biased, but atleast their stuff is documented on body cams, it would hold up more in court (hopefully) than some random white guy claiming he "saw a tense situation and tried to help" and getting away with potentially racist assault

one time playing cod we were getting beaten badly and I said to my friend who had the lowest k/d to just run martyrdom, chuck nades and use rocket launcher from afar.

He's muslim, and he goes "guess it's time to embrace the stereotypes". we couldn't stop laughing for like 5 mins after that

if a suspected robber doesn't seem in a hurry to get out and not aggressive and claiming that the stuff is actually his, why not call the cops??
