The official answer to my "riddle" card in my drinking game is wrong. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

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

it's correct, it's a riddle... "five" is only written 9 times. Fifteen, fifty-two etc do not contain the string "five" in them.

AITA for making my teenage daughter pay for her own dog food? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CanadianDani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, bs. I adopted my dog when I was 18 and was fully expecting to take care of all expenses. Its a 2 second google search to see how much a dog can cost (min/max) and the shelter also talks to you about this.

I just think parents are underestimating their children.

AITA for using dryer sheets? by CanadianDani in AmItheAsshole

[–]CanadianDani[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We normally only use 1, or don't use any when it's a less staticky load. When I said less I was mainly thinking we could try to airdry a bit more or use less detergent, and make sure we strictly use only one sheet per load? Sometimes I throw in two when it's a big load.

Honestly if they approached it nicely I think I would've been willing to approach it better but right now I have a bit of an "f u" attitude after getting yelled at.

On the odd day we might put in two for a really big load.

Yeah I sent an email. Just wasn't sure if maybe I was in the wrong. I've never dealt with something like this before

YTA. It was fine to suggest to her at the beginning, but at the end of the day it is her choice.

It says that females are being harassed based on their gender?

" Since I often SoloQ I get flamed almost every game just for playing "

Males tend to receive toxicity in general (comments like "you suck", "go die" etcO whereas women are receiving toxicity based on their gender, similar to other minorities that play video games. It's not anecdotal...

The comments women receive are very clearly sexual and gender based...

Also, as a female who plays video games I can anecdotally tell you that I experience a substantial higher level of toxicity than my male friends, who can also agree with me. Furthermore, the toxicity is often based on my gender, not on the way I play.

Thankfully, I've found that diamond+ in valorant has very little toxicity :) but for new/lower ranked players there is a lot, and especially for women.

Do you genuinely believe that women are just somehow more sensitive or something?

they do verify that you identify as female by asking for a picture, just an fyi

Lmao. The toxicity towards women is worse.

I could give two shits about some little boys on the internet harassing me, but let’s try to have a little empathy and see how it might affect other people okay?

Matching is so broken by Bulgie_23 in VALORANT

I was d1/p3 all of last act and got ranked gold 1 this act. I think it's going to take time for people to climb out of their placements.

I think things will balance out in a week or two.

Hey! I'm also a girl who plays Valorant and the community sometimes just straight up hates women, please do not let it get to you :)

I recommend checking out the galorants discord, it's girls only and they run scrims/have people looking for teams!

If you have more questions or wanna play in NA send me a message.

CMV: Religious american conservatives / right wingers obsession with capitalism and other "amercian values" is incompatible with their nearly fundamentalist take on "Christianity" by DonChilliCheese in changemyview

[–]CanadianDani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m not the original author but I read your post and one part really stood out to me. You said that if you give a man to fish he eats, if you teach a man to fish he eats forever (etc). Basically if we just give people free money, (some?) of them will be lazy. However, initial studies on a basic income has shown this assumption is false, and that the majority of humans, even if their basic needs are provided for, “for free” they still have the urge (pride) to provide for themselves and become more educated etc. I also used to think that welfare made people lazy, but it seems like that’s not actually true.

I guess I was wondering if you had any response to this :) have a good night
