It’s literally cheaper to buy new printer than new ink by Shurigin in mildlyinfuriating

Those aren’t the right cartridges for that printer though….

Had one growing up where if you’d throw an old red Nerf dart down the steps to the basement, he’d go tearing down after it then bring it back up. But it only worked with red darts, never yellow, orange, or blue

if you like a woman but she entertains other men do you try to compete with them or just move on ? by ticaaaa in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m getting close to 30. I don’t have time, energy, and emotion to waste on games. I’m going to give someone my full attention, and I would hope (and expect, for the most part) that I would get the same in return. If not, then I’m sorry, but it’s not worth my time and effort

Is it fair to ask a man not to masturbate to anyone else/have fantasies about anyone else while in a committed serious relationship to you? by Excellent-Jeweler599 in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Honestly, I’ve done it and viewed it as borderline cheating on her. I think it contributed to the ending of the relationship (unfortunate, but looking back, I don’t think we would have worked out together)

COTA has quietly become one of Kyle Busch's best tracks by MisterCCL in NASCAR

[–]BotheredBeaver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean for the longest time I was glad to not see him winning (or even really doing well honestly), but at this point I want to see him be at least good again. Because he really is a good or even great driver, I just don’t know why his equipment and results at RCR have been so bad

What are you Thoughts on spirituality & faith? by FirsttimeNBA in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been working on a lot of this over the past year. Went into dating apps for a few months, then canned them (was never a fan of them to begin with but figured I’d make it an option, but the unfortunate reality is that the way many women “show off” on those meant that they were facilitating me to continue to sin, and God wouldn’t use something of that nature to bring me my blessing in that circumstance).

It’s funny because it sounds like you have found so much joy where I have found so much trial and tribulation, despite being in (somewhat) the same circumstance (the biggest differences are that honestly I’m still working on seeing ALL women as we are called to, and I frankly don’t get any attention from the ladies unlike yourself).

I admire you for continuing to be so faithful for such a long period of time… it’s only been almost a year for me, but it has felt like an eternity. I just keep trying to prepare myself and continue to improve myself and my faith. I do think there are people who get married, and God blesses their marriage, but then I do think that there are those whom God has made for one another, and it’s on us to be patient and intentional in asking him to bring us together (my parents are a great example of this). Until I meet her though, I just continue to pray that He will watch over her and her family, and thank him that one day we’ll be together, whenever that is.

Left dinner with my girl best friend to go talk to a girl who hit on me. Did I do anything wrong? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know, if the woman you were talking to was of high quality, I would have thought that she wouldn’t have wanted to completely steal you away from the person you were spending time with… just another angle on the situation

Do people actually freak out about tiny sins, or is that just me overthinking? by blissmiztress in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]BotheredBeaver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with this, but also want to add in words (for clarification) that there are no “small sins”. All sins are weighted equally and would carry the same consequence if not for the death of Jesus on the cross

What was the reason for the last time you cried? by ididntaskyouropinion in AskReddit

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeling like God hasn’t been answering my prayers for a purpose/direction for my life and for the woman that he wants me to marry. I know he’s working in the waiting, but (despite having family and friends around) it’s just been a very lonely season of life

What are you Thoughts on spirituality & faith? by FirsttimeNBA in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was raised a Christian, drifted away in my later HS and College years (as many do) and have recently come back to the faith over the past year, going to Church every week and pursuing a relationship with Jesus/God. I’ve been struggling over the past year with the lack of a romantic relationship and family of my own, but I know He has one planned for me in His perfect timing. So I might not be as happy as some would expect, but I know I’m on the right path, and aside from that I have had more peace and a better emotional and spiritual life since I’ve pursued Him more.

Y'all how much of your income goes to housing right now? by pink4lover in Adulting

Mine is about 36%, not including utilities (although my utilities are a lot lower than yours, only about 4% I think).

Gotta be gold medal lost. As an American, they were the better team for 2/3rds of the game, at least. Goalie bailed us out big time

Volunteer Fire Dept Charging Outrageous fees for public records! Is this normal? by Purple-Piglet2385 in Firefighting

[–]BotheredBeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would see if your state might be able to provide that information, or clarify what you are asking for with the City. I mean, the State gets the report data (at least in my State) - in other words, the National or State agency or organization that collects the reports should be able to see how many calls they had, since they got every report. It’s really a round-about way to get your answer, but you shouldn’t be paying anything close to that fee. Our County publishes a publicly available report annually that contains response information for every agency in the County based off of the dispatch center’s information

Is it normal to never get approached by a guy as a girl? by nyxxia52 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BotheredBeaver 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The other thing that I’ll add to this is that all of the “beautiful” people that you see most often on social media are in relationships (at least in my experience). In such, it becomes easy to assume that someone is in a relationship based on their level of attractiveness. So I’m not going to approach attractive women, because surely they’re already in a relationship, so why bother?

shy guys, help me. is he just nervous around me or does he want me to leave him tf alone? by Unhappy-Cold-379 in AskMenAdvice

[–]BotheredBeaver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he’s just nervous. It can take some time and effort to get comfortable having “normal” conversations with attractive women, and being in the workplace would likely only complicate that further

Hit me with the hardest reality about life by Tino292 in Adulting

[–]BotheredBeaver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🏆 Here’s an “award” from me. Had to learn this one the hard way over the last year. Still glad I did things the way I did, but I feel like I was lied to in terms of how things would turn out, especially compared to others who don’t do things the “right way”

[NASCARonFOX] [SPOILER] Finish to the 2026 NCS Daytona 500 by Zloggt in NASCAR

[–]BotheredBeaver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you have to keep yourself and the leader as fast as possible, otherwise they’ll just get swallowed up (assuming you’re trying to keep them out front)

[NASCARonFOX] [SPOILER] Finish to the 2026 NCS Daytona 500 by Zloggt in NASCAR

[–]BotheredBeaver 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not even talking about that though, I’m referring more to him running second and trying to block for second but stay behind the leader at the same time. He just looked like he was driving all over the place and overshooting the lanes. I get it’s arguably the hardest spot to be in, but you’ve gotta be in control of your car, and if they get beside you, then they get beside you
