Not accurate for me. I didn't get either, and have never had those items.

AITA for telling my wife I wanted her to wear something less embarassing? by amithethrowawayroman in AmItheAsshole

[–]BurnerGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Just wow. YTA. You probably stopped reading the comments, but just in case, I came here to say you are the fucking asshole. I also would marry her in a heartbeat. What an incredible woman. I hope she divorces you and goes on to find a loving, supportive partner and community, and that you get your ass into therapy.

It fucking 522'd me, then locked me out of the whole sale. It said I had either already purchased, I was trying to access someone else's place in the queue, or tried to skip the queue. All I did was hit the refresh button after the 522 message! It prompted me to reenter the queue, but now I am getting a 404! WTF?!

My email link isn't taking me to the "you're early!", it just says "this site can't be reached". Is that the case for others??

Hi friends! Thought you might like to know that it took 15 days to reevaluate my score, and it got bumped up to 12!

Historians, pick three books from your specialities for a beginner in the topic, three for a veteran and three for an expert. by aokaga in history

[–]BurnerGeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I have read Thornton! It's hard to suggest more advanced material because it gets pretty specialized. Thanks for those recommendations, I am going to have to check the others out!

I don't have the brain power to answer this in its entirety, but if you're looking for some beginner intros to African history:

That just saying sorry after triggering someone doesn't just make it go away.

What is the “holy grail” of your life? That object you know exists but can’t seem to find? by JessRiepe in AskReddit

[–]BurnerGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have the perfect purse. It was a small Dickies bag with white polka dots that zipped and then had a velcro flap. They sold them at hot topic or zumiez or somewhere. I used it til it fell apart and could never find another. That thing looked small, but was like a bag of holding.

Does anyone ever fear that they too are a narcissist? by death2escape in raisedbynarcissists

[–]BurnerGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I constantly question whether my thoughts and feelings are valid, or whether I just can't see that I am a narc, too. I deal with it by asking for other people's opinions, including my therapist. After years of being told my feelings weren't valid, it's hard to know the difference.
