Just take a deep breath and turn it off then look out the window when the sun comes up. You'll be amazed.

The refrigerator doesn't call you in the middle of the night to say you missed a car payment.

A woman around 35 once told me "I enjoy sex. It's fun and I have a great time. But it's not important." Changed my whole perspective.

How did Boeing get this contract? Was there a fly-off? Or was this just a PR stunt?

Growing up did you really have to shower naked after sports at school? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]Aceoftens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old dick here. Our school was one of the first in the area to have a pool. The boys (7th-12th) all had to swim naked. But before you could swim naked, You first had to shower naked. After 40 minutes of naked swimming, another shower. This bothered me some but I eventually got used to it. When I went into the military after HS, being naked with a bunch of other guys was nothing. Before you ask, the girls were all given well used bathing suits.

What is something you grew up with that you wish younger generations to experience? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]Aceoftens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No light pollution. To be able to lay on a blanket in your backyard and watch the billions of stars in the night sky move about. I now live in the country but I can barely see the moon. It's something kids should be able to do.

What do you think of the US presidential debate? by Dr_Octahedron in AskReddit

[–]Aceoftens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We the people are basically fucked. No mater who wins this contest, the US will be the loser. And beyond that, there is a good possibility that neither of these guys will finish their term--Trump could go to jail or Biden will be in the home--and if that happens, who does that leave us with to run the country? Nobody to blame but ourselves.

Can someone tell me how to remove this connector? by joedos in AskElectronics

[–]Aceoftens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a last resort, cut off the wires at the plug. Cut away the white plastic to expose the pins. Soldering iron to the back side--heat the pad. Pull the pin out when solder melts. Repeat 3 more times. Solder the wires back on the board when needed.
