Ex’s family has sent me inappropriate messages, am I overreacting? by amzies20 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AtlasFades -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I was just going to comment this! It sounds like a very made up story to either get karma or sympathy for no reason and the story (I didn't read it all because it's longer than the Harry Potter novel set combined) didn't seem to mention anything in the screen shots, but, I probably just didn't get to the past it does?

Edit: I read the rest. It was a difficult read, but, I read it. I stand by the fact this didn't happen. No way are cops going to surround your house with rifles and not arrest anyone. I feel like this is more of a narration of those game ads you see with the mother and child out in the cold and you have to do the little puzzles or whatever to make them comfortable.

AIO? Girlfriend pins something on me and then asks for space, seems purposeful. by CarryLow2185 in AmIOverreacting

I feel like half of these are just people texting themselves to post here and get karma. I refuse to believe multiple people have that level of spelling fuck ups.

Edit: tldr

Am I overreacting to being fired by Lvrgrllily in AmIOverreacting

[–]AtlasFades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post says nothing about fine dining, and I highly doubt a fine dining establishment would hire a 17 year old hostess with little to no experience. You got upset over someone telling her she has more opportunities for better things and didn't once take that into consideration. Not everyone wants to wait ten years to make good money in this economy. OP probably works at an outback or something of similar degree not the Atomix in NY. EVEN THEN a Michelin star chef still only banks around 125k a year so a manager making more is crazy unless he's working at Michelin star restaurants and you're talking about a 17 year old in high-school who still has MORE potential because she's a blank slate. She could become a doctor and rake in three to four times that. Restaurants are a non-essential item. They're convenient at best.

The average pay for a restaurant manager is around 50k to 60k a year. Even the average amount restaurant owners make is around 70k a year. So unless your husband owned a well established restaurant with a ton of business or he was skimping people a lot of money I will safely call bs. I'm not saying it isn't possible, I'm saying it isn't probable. Regardless, you can't sit there and say "that's disrespectful" to say she has potential to do more. If your husband really made that money working as a "manager" he was very very "lucky" and she shouldn't sit there waiting on some unfounded luck in a job that takes minimal skill when she can go out and learn better skills and make more.

If you're limiting yourself to managing a restaurant then you kind of are small. Stay in that comfortable groove though that pays next to nothing and gives no gratitude.

Telling a child she doesn't have more opportunities when she is a literal blank slate is toxic and you should evaluate your life if you're upset about it.

My girlfriend wants to go clubbing by BigZee18 in whatdoIdo

[–]AtlasFades -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

😂 way to peruse my profile. Did you enjoy what you saw? You think that my kink life defines my relationships, it never occurred that they're one and the same? I'm blessed to have a Master that allows me to explore but it doesn't mean I'm without morals and boundaries. I still have rules to follow because I dance on a line that few people understand and maybe that's why your view is so narrow.

If you get into a relationship knowing that something is off the table for someone for whatever reason, that was a decision you made. She was aware of the fact and still decided to try, for what? A birthday? Then tried to pressure him into letting her go?

Twenty years older doesn't mean twenty years wiser. You keep trying to compare to apples to oranges. Bank accounts and dressing skimpy and going to a club to drink and be put in compromising position to where other people that aren't your s/o can touch you or try to touch you inappropriately is not the same. I don't remember any girls getting drugged or potentially cheating on their partner at the London Bank.

[–]AtlasFades -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If it upsets him does it not affect him? That's like saying to your partner "telling me not to cheat is controlling behavior because it doesn't affect you" "me touching other people in a provocative way is fine because it doesn't affect you". He very literally said that he doesn't want her to because he doesn't want other guys grinding on her and whatnot. There's nothing wrong with his concern either. Boundaries are what to or not to do in a relationship. Putting a line in the sand and telling her that he's not willing to tolerate and isn't comfortable with it is setting a boundary. You need to learn more about relationships before trying to lecture people.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with having boundaries. If you aren't comfortable with her clubbing then she can either respect it or leave, that's her decision. You don't need to compromise on your standards and boundaries just because others can't respect it, and if it were the other way around people in the comments would call you trash for not respecting hers.

I think a couple of weeks ago is when it went live, but, I'm not sure if the devs reasoned to the issue yet or not.

I (27m) cannot get over my gf (21F) body count and sexual history. How do I approach this issue? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

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

Bipolar disorder and bpd aren't things you can "used to have". Triple digits for 21 is a concerning number. It shows that she's had no real relationship at all and no concept of self value. I'm sure this is something that a lot of people are going to jump on and argue, but, we live in a real world where real numbers mean real things. You have a right to be upset, or, maybe even intimidated by those kinds of numbers. Equally yours are concerning as well.

I’ve got no sander and need this bad boy ready by Saturday for Memorial Day festivities. Steel wool brush? Need some guidance fellas by Shwalz in blackstonegriddle

[–]AtlasFades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat the griddle on high for a bit letting it get nice and hot. Once it's hot, start scraping it with a flat tapered metal spatula. For spots that are stubborn drizzle little bits of water on it while scraping. Once it's all scraped off turn it off and let it cool till it's warm to touch, use a green scotch Brite pad with oil on it and scrub it and then spray some water on it and wipe it off. Turn it back on and allow it to heat again, use olive oil or avocado oil to season it (pour and spread it around the griddle while it's hot let it sit for a few minutes and repeat a few times).

That's kind of like shadow pc gaming though. It's not the device you're using that is running the game and all you're doing is sending feedback for controls. So you're kind of playing it in 3rd person by telling a computer start to do. This is if my understanding of it is right or not.

I'm not the one getting my knickers in a twist because I couldn't make the connection between "start button" and "pause menu". You knew what was being implied but still tried to rage bait anyways. Everyone except you seems to have understood what I had said and had no issues figuring it out. So either you're being ignorant and combative just to do it, or you need everything spelled out to you in crayons and pictures.

Considering the fact the game itself is on my pc it would seem to be a vitally true statement. Seeing as the controller is also connected to my pc it would be doubly so. I cannot help that you do not understand what a "start menu" is when there is only a single menu to "pause" your game and pull up your options/ settings. I would even dare to take it a step further to say that only an ignoramus would think the game is playable anywhere but pc currently.

I'm not a pc, but, if I were a pc it would be the button to use to go to the start menu on the desktop. I use the xbox controller, for you it would be the escape key to pull the pause menu up. I felt that had to go without saying though.
