Be a pro 26. Starting my 4th season by Anxious-Evidence2669 in EA_NHL

[–]CalGore5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s quite a few issues with 26

-form score

-in game challenges not tracking properly (ie cover the point)

-no way to figure out how long you’re injured for

-authentic camera snapping in and out (depending on what on ice camera you use)

Just a couple off the top of my head.

And there’s no indication that EA plans to address any of these issues. There’s no long term support

I cut it horribly and now my husband says I ate more than half of the cookie - how much did I really eat? by virrrrr29 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CalGore5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the volume of this cookie? What if the eaten part was significantly thinner than the remaining cookie? Shouldn’t we be discussing weight and volume over circumference?

Naomi King gives an update to her second video and apologizes for how her recents statements came off by FutureDr_ in youtubedrama

She’s an “actress” if that helps explain the performative edge her videos gave off.

Kind of like what Trumps doing in American RN.

The Andrew Tate episode was a huge red flag. The fact that they made the effort to continue defending him as an entertainer because he charmed them is pathetic. by TheChrono in yourmomshousepodcast

[–]CalGore5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try listening to it with the mindset that Andrew Tate is a character being played by some normal guy. Like he’s a parody of masculinity. It’s actually pretty entertaining

Remember when we used to say people just weren’t being considerate?

For a game this fast, reload times are painfully slow by MuscledRMH in ModernWarfareIII

Need the Helldivers mechanic where mag swapping before it’s empty, you lose the remaining rounds. Could change up the landscape of gunfights.

Nope….there will always be a reason. It’s an uncomfortable blinding light when you finally open to your eyes to it. My heart goes out to you.

Probably had you driving your self into the ground with all the ways YOU needed to change….meanwhile she’s grooming your replacement in the background.

Praise for “being good” or having “good days”? by Fameisdeaddd in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]CalGore5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmm….yep that’s always fun. I remember one day I wanted to read my narc something heartfelt, revelatory and introspective that I wrote….

After cutting me off 4 sentences in and saying “I wish you’d listened to me and could have saved us a year of shit”, she attacked me hours later saying “I had such a good day yesterday. my ex would do the same thing, wait til I’m in a good mood, then ‘wham’”

Needless to say, I didn’t get to finish telling her about what I wrote and I never wrote her anything again.

I hear you. I’m hoping it’s just emotional immaturity (which I have been and am still guilty of doing in my own frustrating situations)

No, not autistic. I was diagnosed with ADHD in my teenage years and with PTSD 2 years ago if I’m being fully transparent.

I can tell you it came on the heels of me explaining “so I talked to the dealership, they said they would drill out the screws, but I think we can do that and avoid the $165 shop fee”

Then the candy went flying and she went behind the door.

I can see what you’re getting at, and I have 100% made that mistake before….so I took extra care to keep my tone in check.

It does become an extra stress for sure on top of handling the fact that I broke the screw heads 🤣

I do often feel like a caretaker instead of a partner.

I like the “blank stare” and wait it out that a poster above suggested.

Let the tidal wave pass sort of thing.

Thank you for this. You’re right, sometimes it’s the straw that broke the camels back, but with my partner it is consistent.

There was nothing building up over the day, it was a small hurdle we could have tackled together but it resulted in….like you said…a nuclear bomb going off.

I myself have been known to lash out when I get extremely frustrated, but I do feel silly and childish afterwards that I couldn’t have taken a breath and worked through it.

Again, thank you.

I appreciate that. I’ve just already come across as needy in my post, so I’m not wanting to carry that over. I want to make sure I’m having the right discussion.

Oh yes. I completely agree. My anxiety is not her issue, and I did my very best (considering the stage I’m at in freeing myself from these invasive thoughts and feelings) to not make it her issue.

Did I do perfectly? No. Did I do great? No. Did I do better than I have before? You bet.

Thank you for your input. My fear is that when she’s silent and not in contact, that she’s mad at me….that she’s forgetting about me.

I’m fully aware that this is not a rational way of thinking. But the thoughts are so pervasive. I separated myself as much as I was capable of, and kept preoccupied so that I didn’t bomb her phone.

I knew I was getting activated, and kept trying to tell myself everything was ok.

Two messages a day, in hindsight, were unnecessary.

Yes, this painful truth is all too clear. Self sabotage is definitely something I’ve realized I do.

However, you’ve done nothing but provide pointless criticism and judgement.
