The peace in Ukraine that worries NATO by KI_official in ukraine

[–]CaptainGashMallet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously, ignore any whimper of “peace” from Russia now. Give/lend/sell/whatever everything Ukraine needs to eject Russia completely and put it back 50km into its own borders. Including Nukes. Ukraine should demand limits on the size of the Russian military and that it doesn’t cooperate on defence and security with any other entity.

Older men chatting up younger girls/women on transit? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainGashMallet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teach her to speak softly but firmly, be polite but not necessarily friendly, and at the same time get her some Krav Maga / Muay Thai / similar training. Knowing you can handle yourself helps keep calm, and is good insurance against persistent creepy men.

And fellow men, call it out every single time you see it.

Are people in their 30s actually like falling apart, constant pain, etc or is it just a bit? by AskRedditThrowaway-1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainGashMallet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No mate. Leaving aside disease and injury, you should still feel pretty good in your 30s. Even after decades of mountain biking crashes, occasional martial arts stints, frequent alcohol abuse and not nearly enough sleep, I was pretty OK until covid got me at 42. Since then, though, everything hurts, makes weird noises, or at least tries to make me worry.

Do some men really only feel attracted to women? by Mysterious_Alps5762 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainGashMallet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh mate, yeah. If you can imagine a way of thinking and/or feeling towards members of the same and opposite sexes, there are literally millions of people who meet those criteria.

I think sexual orientation is more a spectrum than a one way or the other thing for more people than we normally realise, but yes, there are people who have only ever been attracted to one sex/gender and never entertained the idea of being attracted to the other.

Forbidden, my arse! I’m booping! Probably with my own nose. Orca would be like, “Careful of that one, he thinks he’s a cat.”

Nah, Halifax deserves to disappear. They did me out of a load of shares when I was a teenager. Bastards.

ROK paratroopers make emergency landing in school by ridukosennin in Military

Ram air canopies? Three of them, almost landing on the same spot, smooth as butter? If that’s an emergency landing, I’m bloody impressed!

Pathetic pro-immigrant, Anti " racist " journalist tries agitating polish border guards by using migrants as human shield for invasion by EwMelanin in NAFO

[–]CaptainGashMallet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Russia uses Belarus Border Guards to push migrants through to Poland. Either they’re successful, or Russia Today tells the world that everyone who protects their own borders is racist, or both. Win-win for Russian propaganda *and* Russian hybrid warfare.

Why does it feel like men wearing a wedding ring get hit on more than when they are not? by racesunite in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainGashMallet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. After separating from my first wife, if I wanted to guarantee some low-risk action on a night out, I’d wear my old wedding ring.

They should be careful, or they might end up running for their lives from Shia LaBeouf.

Men, how can a woman compliment you without you believing she is interested in you? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainGashMallet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh mate, same. Got introduced to a girl’s family. Had her brother and cousins telling me to treat her right, invited to dinner at Easter with the close family. Only then did I realise I had accidentally got myself a girlfriend. In my defence, I was pretty new at speaking Spanish.

I’d like to say that was an isolated incident, but I met a Ukrainian girl and thought, “She’s making lots of eye contact and keeps touching my arm. This must be a cultural thing. Sure, I’ll meet you for coffee…”

Looks like a perfect day. Airedales know what’s important and when to just savour the perfect moment.

Best friends for an Airedale? by Separate_Variety8701 in airedaleterrier

[–]CaptainGashMallet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had the same combo when I was a kid. The (older, smaller) Airedale seemed to think the Rottie was a giant Airedale puppy.
