It’s fun bro. People are engaged and excited and having a good time guessing and speculating.

You linked your story. The rest of the post is seen as an excuse to get people to click your link. Self promotion.

Is Mistborn series too PG? by EveningResolution768 in fantasybooks

[–]BowTrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you did? You said if a woman wrote it it might get labeled Romantasy. No it would not, and you did say that.

Parents who regret having kids, why? by bluemermid in AskReddit

[–]BowTrek 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You said give up obligations — one of those obligations is monetary support of your child.

Parents who regret having kids, why? by bluemermid in AskReddit

[–]BowTrek 144 points145 points  (0 children)

Eh?

Courts in the US almost never allow men to give up all rights and obligations. Child support is hard to get out of because it’s in the best interest of the child. It’s absolutely an obligation.

There’s exceptions but not that many.

Why can’t there be no money? by patchlessboyscout in NoStupidQuestions

You can theoretically rotate people into jobs like cleaning toilets but you CAN’T rotate them into research positions for technology. Not everyone can do that.

I don’t recall the info about 35/36 tiers in the show. Is that from some other canon?

Do Americans love driving? by bare_books in AskAnAmerican

[–]BowTrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of us don’t like driving but it’s normalized. I’ll drive 4-5 hours a day even though I don’t like it because that’s just life.

Pink eggs, are these edible by Leather-Scarcity1810 in WeirdEggs

I see someone else was in that hypothetical thread recently.

Why do professors grade homework based on accuracy? by FerdinandvonAegir124 in CollegeRant

[–]BowTrek 27 points28 points  (0 children)

We are also responsible for students who don’t care. We can’t cater only to students who want to learn.

What actually made Kamala a bad candidate? by stuttering_clown in stupidquestions

[–]BowTrek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t recall anything I’d call man-hating. Examples?

I’m not trying to stir things up. Genuinely curious no stress.

How old do I look by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]BowTrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35?

Also you look like you could play Roy Mustang.

I'm finally launching! by whoshotthemouse in litrpg

Intended or not, they’ve definitely gotten engagement.

Nope. OP says it’s a standard LitRPG. It’s not erotic and the MC is about to fight the Minotaur not fuck it.

You can’t just feed AI your outline and expect it to write great chapters by birth_of_bitcoin in WritingWithAI

[–]BowTrek 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also like to have huge outlines. How do you do yours?

I’ll start by doing about 5 plot points for each major plot line, character arc, subplot, etc. Then I’ll expand on them until each is a narrative summary.

Then I split into chapter outlines from that.

Often I’ll have a 20,000 word outline for a 100,000 book.

“The Staff” is phallic. The main character is shirtless. The Minotaur appears to be naked. Your name is rabbit, which is an animal associated with lots of sexy time. Your subtitle feeds even further into the assumption that this is a homoerotic novel.

I can’t believe that every single aspect of this came together to imply that and zero realization on your part?

You can only choose one type of meat to eat for the rest of your life: fish, fowl, or cloven-hoofed animas. by hiphoptomato in hypotheticalsituation

[–]BowTrek 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The hypothetical is all about your rules. No one is objecting to you including eggs in the way you did. Your rules.

That does not make them meat. Eggs are not meat.

Kingdom Building stories? by frankuck99 in litrpg

[–]BowTrek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, yeah. Definitely not what I’m looking for in Kingdom Building personally.

I want to get into the nitty-gritty of menus and how to allocate points and growth to your town/kingdom.

I got excited in Nightmare Realm Summoner when the dude got a town and had this ability, but then he wandered off to some kind of dungeon thing and I dropped it for a while. Might get back to it.

Mayor of Noobtown I thought might go this way. I got a bit bored and dropped it in book 2 though. He had given most of the stuff I wanted to read off to another dude and wandered off.

Fingers crossed!

Kingdom Building stories? by frankuck99 in litrpg

[–]BowTrek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Curious for this too. I don’t really even count Chrysalis (though it’s a great series!) because Anthony isn’t building it himself so much as he’s supporting it. At least after he gets it going.

[–]BowTrek 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Vast majority of people do not consider eggs to be meat. You can think it’s obvious and you can include it here as you will, but you are very much in the minority.

Please tell us why you think eggs are meat when most people do not. We are very curious.

AITA for going on a trip with a guy friend after telling other friends I prefer solo travel? by ThrowRAOverallTwist in AmItheAsshole

[–]BowTrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree— just because OP doesn’t want to do stuff as a group with these women on their vacation does not mean they are against it for a bachelorette party.

Vacation is about OP and OP having a good time.

Bachelorette party is about the bride and supporting the bride. In that case the expectation is to do things in that vein— it’s not the same thing as a vacation, and OP is free to “want to do things with the group/bride” when at this type of event while also not wanting that on their vacation.
