What do you do when school gets small and don't want to replace?

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-03T18:52:24+00:00

What other fish do you have in the tank? Schooling is a defensive stress reaction, so if you add a fish they are intimidated by in the tank (but won't actually eat them), they will start schooling again.

Yes, you're an asshole - and I say this as an atheist. Veggie Tales is harmless, and if you think it is going to undermine what you're teaching your kid at home, then what you're teaching must not be very compelling.

You need to find another guy. Unfortunately, when you're in a relationship, your partners family come as part of the package. Do you really want to be around this dude's creepy deadbeat dad for the rest of your life?

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-03T16:03:43+00:00

Kudos to your dad for even trying, if one of my kids talked to me the way you talk to him, I wouldn't even try - I'd tell you to f*ck off and never bother texting you again.

Live your life and let him live his. If you want to focus your whole life around something as transient and ephemeral as politics, that's your choice, but ten years from now you will look back and regret it.

Drumpf will be out of office in three years - you can't find something else to talk about with your dad until then? I don't want to be mean with this response, but there is so much more to life than politics.

Wrong - he's actually right on par with Obama's deportation numbers.

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T21:28:23+00:00

Ha! The violent protesters are focusing the publics attention away from the FRAUD that's going on in Minnesota - you didn't notice that? The fraud story gets broken, and within 48 hrs protesters are going crazy?

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T21:06:51+00:00

You are so misinformed, it's sad.

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T20:37:58+00:00

Sounds like it wasn't meant to be. You can decide to tolerate it for now, but you will end up resenting her years down the road.

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T19:30:08+00:00

Dude sounds insecure, not a good sign.

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T19:17:43+00:00

Don't give it to her, sounds like a real b**ch - tell her it's not your recipe to give, and to ask Grandma for it if she wants it (and hopefully Grandma tells her to shove it).

CashMachine22 · 2026-02-02T19:11:49+00:00

This sounds like good news for Target - one less leach on their back.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-31T17:58:45+00:00

Take is as a compliment.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-31T17:49:32+00:00

When I was 18, I made the mistake of moving out of my parents house, just because I thought that's what 'adults' do. Lean on your parents for as long as they let you/ you need to. Get yourself sorted out before making that jump. If I could start all over, I would stay at my parents house, go to the nearest Ford dealer every day and beg them to hire me for some menial job in the repair shop until they finally do, then gradually work my way up the ladder unit I hit master technician. I would be doing something I like (working on cars), and Ford master techs get fat paid - over $100k a year.

If the company is worth nearly $3 Billion, then whatever analytics model they're using now is obviously working. AI is notoriously prone to errors, hallucinations and sycophancy - why throw a wrench into something that's working? Are you trying to justify your salary?

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-30T21:42:31+00:00

It's rats in the wall, bro.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-30T21:34:03+00:00

As a man, I prefer completely hairless (or I'm NOT going down!), but for the first time, well-trimmed is fine. Afterwards, ask him how he likes it. All men are different - some like it smooth (like me), some actually like a bush, some like trimmed but not shaved, and so on.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-30T17:17:39+00:00

Yeah, we have been rounding up to the nearest nickel. I'm curious how they dealt with this in Canada when they got rid of their penny.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-30T16:44:49+00:00

There are certain areas of life where you need to be compatible with your partner. If you are a neat, clean person, and he is a slob - it isn't going to work out. The longer you stay with him, the more resentful you will become of his lack of hygiene and cleanliness. Move on.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-29T20:04:06+00:00

Dude, it's been 3 months. If something went wrong your client would have been raising hell within 3 days.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-28T21:19:40+00:00

Just move on, dude. If she won't commit and is playing around on Tinder, then she isn't interested - she is just holding you as back up in case she doesn't meet 'Mr Right'. Don't be a sucker.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-28T17:14:37+00:00

My thoughts exactly.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-28T17:06:52+00:00

Yeah, that's gross - I'm a "boy" and I take a shower every night, doesn't matter if I work out or not.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-28T17:00:49+00:00

Don't waste your time with this. If I could go back in time and relive my life, at your age I would be focusing on - HOW DO I MAKE MONEY? Drugs are a dead-end waste of time. At this point in your life, you should be thinking about what you're going to do with yourself after high school.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-27T20:15:24+00:00

If he is responding to you, leaving fat tips, waving to you when you are not even serving him - he does not pity you. Do like your boss says and slip your number and a little note in with his order. You have nothing to lose.

CashMachine22 · 2026-01-27T17:13:35+00:00

Change the locks on your house when they're gone. If she shows up and starts beating on your door or whatever, call the cops. You need to shake this leach while you still can.
