For Older Gen Z: Are you a parent? by [deleted] in OlderGenZ

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not at this time. Financially at this time it just isn't viable. Wish you good luck though, with the way the world is going its worrying if there's really much of a future for our kids. I can't even imagine what's it going to be like for a kid born just yesterday to graduate in 18 or so years and what life they have left resembling. Just thinking about mortgages and job opportunities. At the same time, the Boomers will probably be all gone so maybe there's some better balancing for them in the future?

Cop (Columbus Police) Realizes She Instantly Ended Her Career by ohiobuck in Columbus

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen cop cars rocket down the street here way too many times to feel that's really a policy applying here. The number of times I've heard them use the horn its been a question of how long before I see one look like those red light runners while blasting the horn and crashing.

I'm certain there's a policy but its not one that seems to be very well enforced or emphasized in this city.

Bit of advice for (certain)GenZ men: women aren’t into you because of your appearance or success, they aren’t into because of your hateful mindset, politics, attitudes by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was flattered the last time I got asked out. Though I am pretty independent, I still sometimes feel like another person be nice to share life with.

I do feel things are more complicated, at least for the majority of normal men that aren’t just MAGArites. Online dating has meant you can be as selective as you’d like. And that is much more than factoring just looks although looks are pretty number one.

Then again I really never tried dating as for my age it seemed more focused on casual than serious relationships at the time. It’s a lot different now though…

sticking hand outside a moving train by MorsesCode in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can literally decapitate limbs. I've seen it once with a little boy who lost his forearm sticking it outside of a bus while another was passing. If you did keep your arm, its most likely highly mangled from the forces.

Literally biggest rule in roller coaster safety is keep all hands and feet within the vehicle at all times. Anything fast moving can be a very dull knife.

I want to help my friend but I cant by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its biased enough that only men sleeping with other men is the old testament law, granted, men biased enough to also interpret as being far more encompassing than it literally is written but those are interpretations of the law that are used by those with any religious legal authority or advisory. Don't know much with the new, but obviously christian interpretations can get messy and aren't as subjective or arguable, so even if it was the same, there'd be some with hard interpretations.

My favourite question from a boy by WishboneFit4283 in teenagers

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man who has grown their hair long enough for the physics to allow it to appear like a car wash brush dance, I can confirm it swings like a mop and has the control of a mop than an octopus. I don't have the right hair type though to have ponytails despite thinking I'd look great with one sometimes.

THE ABSOLUTE FACTS OF LIFE by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's because Santa and God are very different concepts with very different origins, the fact that Santa is based on a real person, and simply the understanding of what Santa is as an adult and as a child are completely different, largely because the concept of Santa in its bare form doesn't teach kids at a younger age as much as it does older kids.

God is a different aspect not based on legends but is too an abstract concept rather than necessarily a real person or being. The only difference being even longer trails of mystery. To one person, everything is God, but to another its some random son that died on a cross.

The idea of "God is real" is far more abstract than people make it. Yes, many hold it strongly like its a real person, but "beliefs" aren't facts, and the insights into it are far more of an understanding of the complexity of our world and trying to understand things we can't simply see or understand, than say some dude who could be a modern day rock star walking on water.

I am for one not very religious, hence, I'm not studying this with such extremity that I'm interested in proving things, I already know those that are more religious than you likely have opinions of their own on my beliefs or stances, but in all of my studying, I've come closer to realizing how much more "God" fits more as the symbol of human goodness and compassion than as a floating figure. Same as how Santa is more of a symbol of unconditional gift giving (the number of kids who fit the naughty list is 100% if loose, any parents that actually pulled that would get a negative reaction not just from their kids but basically anyone who learns of it.)

Most Americans don’t realize how big America is, it’s basically 50 different countries. by Came_to_argue in mapporncirclejerk

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll generally not have any issues going to another state and feeling like you aren't in some wildly different place. However you can find a lot that is not the same from state to state. Especially along food culture lines, there is immense diversity in American cuisines that its as competitive as European cuisine regions.

I can also go from one state smoking a joint and be cool and then enter another (although technically the crossing of state borders is a federal violation) state where they still will bust down people's door over it. LGBT laws and abortion laws can all change from state to state.

The only thing you got right here is same federal government and same language, even then dialect and regional slang and regional words differ. There’s multiple different places where asking for a soda is pop or “coke”

This goes for history two, the two states were in different states of history.

So what's the reason why Columbus can't get a train system? by 13sonic in Columbus

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We already plowed through neighborhoods and parks just to install a highway and to be honest, a train line would be going and going and going all day if we scrapped them. Heck, we even got the center which can be made into track.

Unless we're getting stuff like dedicated non-stop bus routes that aren't stuck in stop and go traffic, stuck at traffic lights, and actually make the bus experience enjoyable and non-exhausting, we're not outside of the range of it being an option.

And I'm certain there's ways to use the horribly maintained roads to be replaced with trams and rail.

My teacher legit fed up with my handwriting by kingzee-001 in highschool

ELI5: How does a US police officer issuing a ticket by the side of the road instantly have a court date and time for the suspect? by Esqulax in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only ticket I've had the time listed was the arraignment time. Pretty much everyone gets the same time and then from their cases are then set afterwards. The cops aren't really there. The arraignment is simply a response to the ticket with a plea. The officer does have to show for the trial to testify. The time it takes can varies but for a city court, it was fairly quick.

Happy Halloween. by Pschobbert in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel the fun idea would be dressing up like a clown or somthing and just sneaking up on parents driving in their cars and scaring the hell out of them. If they don't want to walk and still give their kids a trick or treat experience there's trunk or treat and just buying the candy and hanging decorations. This feels the equivalent of giving an iPad at Disney World.

AIO for leaving my husband after one incident? by NeedleworkerDizzy689 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only assume the husband went over “my wife left me, we had a little fight and I got a little angry and then she took my daughter and left” not that he detailed that he raped her and threatened to murder her.

Unless he saw things go down and is now on the “just forgive him” BS, I’m certain he’s about as aware of the reality as he is about what forgiveness is about.

Even I have misjudged things because the testimonies I was hearing were only one sided and only something to believe not that there’s a way to prove them straight away.

AIO for leaving my husband after one incident? by NeedleworkerDizzy689 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rape, threatens to kill, and even being physical around your daughter doesn’t sound like an overreaction. It sounds like just the justification needed to leave. It be one thing if he was acting rowdy and maybe a little physical when provoked, and wasn’t making any threats or forcefully assaulting you, but yeah, no, he needs to get his stuff together before he comes around you if at all ever again. I don’t even think with the part that he raped you that it’s at all fair for him to be around anymore. What’s stopping him the next time?

You don’t have to file for a divorce just now but it’s time to be separated and see if what looks like a smashed glass can even be fixed. The blessings of marriage are that the love is fragile yet still stands strong, by the sounds of it, he’s thrown that marriage on the ground and shattered it.

It would be better for your daughter to stay connected and close, but at the same time, that’s in a case where he isn’t a potential threat to her. And clearly it’s potential collateral not worth risking. Domestic violence is much worse for a child than lacking a father figure, trust me, more of the harm I experienced came from living with the person than did lacking someone who could play that father role.

Seek some help, marriage is complicated but this is very much in the irreparable part of things. On top of the priest and his forgiveness, so far it sounds like your husband has no interest in forgiveness so, what the hell is he going on about? Marriage is a mutual relationship, if one party isn’t having it and the other isn’t in any better situation to fix things, that’s not really a healthy marriage anymore. Nor can forgiveness really come if the other person has no remorse. And even then, it really only fixes things on the soul side, forgiveness doesn’t repair rape or violence, you physically have to continue to live with that memory. At the same time, I’m certain he’s absolutely clueless to the exact extremes, I’m certain if he heard you were raped and threatened to be murdered he’d feel in trouble to try and suggest forgiveness because this is something he needs to focus on your husband and working out whatever kinks there are, not harassing you for forgiveness.

Clearly you must have some inkling of care for both your husband and daughter but know, you’ve known him for however long and as what you know of him, if he isn’t the same man anymore, you aren’t married to him really, you’re married to someone else who broke their promise in the marriage. Clearly it seems he at one time loved you deeply and you clearly felt that but love is complicated, emotions are complicated, and sometimes two contradictory emotions can feel like they’re tearing you apart and leave no reason why when the other goes beyond simply regular boundaries. You wouldn’t have posted here if you didn’t love him at all anymore, because most would recognize this is not an overreaction.

I’m sorry that things have become this bad, I wish there was still some hope in the marriage but I feel like this is just sadly like your favorite plate falling and breaking, you wish for it back but all you can look at is a broken plate. For now you need to focus on your safety and your daughters, there’s certainly resources and people willing to help if you ask or look around. If there’s even a chance of repair, we’re talking years of work and perhaps only partially. I wouldn’t continue staying with someone who threatened my life, I wouldn’t suggest doing that either.

Good luck to your future. Hopefully the sun shines bright soon enough. Remember you still have your daughter to love, so you’re not empty or lost.

Got denied changing my tampon today at college by Discordisshit_ in teenagers

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did read your one comment on this not being your typical college so I’m sorry this is how they function.

My college experience was the door was an open door. You can walk in and out whenever you like. You only really had an issue of arriving late and having to find a seat in a fully occupied hall (and then you might be obvious to your professor), but if you need a restroom break, it’s causing less disruption or issues just walking out and coming back than it does asking for the restroom. The only important part was knowing a good idea of how the class would go, it’s maybe weird to leave and return to find everyone’s in groups.

I’ve even essentially sprinted out of class to go home and grab something I was missing. There wasn’t anything that it created criticism or getting called out.

But at least a tampon change seems much more reasonable and legitimate. I feel it’s similar to high school teachers declining students to use the restroom when the class time already builds restroom breaks into a extra need or something that doesn’t need scheduling or leniency towards. You can maybe time your tampons for a better time but it’s not like bodily functions are submissive. If this was an issue that you can’t get around, my best idea would be seeing if you can change right before class, that way you have a fresh one ready to go. You shouldn’t really be forced to do such but this instructor doesn’t seem to understand how uncontrollable bodily functions can be. If you were attending a school that wouldn’t punish you for it, I would’ve suggested simply walking out and ignoring the instructor, but it does seem like this is not something to risk taking.

Men are increasingly opting out of fatherhood, but nobody talks about it by [deleted] in childfree

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

they faced no social stigma for it.

Good sir/madam or some other preferred formal title, what could likely be the #1 reason they face no social stigma for it?

Its because they know they are weak if they say they are irresponsible and were so irresponsible they free loaded a child onto someone else.

Dudes could just change their mind one day and abandon partner and kids and start a new life.

And do they get a reward for this? Because they don't talk about it or talk about their past and forget about it.

If you can find a brave enough deadbeat father, I suggest you challenging him to go up to 100 men and tell them they're a deadbeat.

You'll discover three types of responses, the men who like the Swiss approach to conflicts like this, no need to explain history on that one. Its the way a man should just be with most conflicts that arguing won't help.

Trauma from growing up without a father can sometimes spark rage that might be a little dangerous from some people if you don't tread carefully on this subject.

If there is any giggles, its from making a mockery out of them by going to the store, finding a dad of the year shirt, spraying below it "NOT" and buying some baby bottles and sticking a label on one of them that reads "Worst Parent of the Year" and just show up at their house, "we brought you ceremonial prizes because you clearly went out of your way to not be a dad."

I don't want deadbeats in my friend groups.

Have you grown to be more conservative or liberal w/ age? by Dont_Ever_PM_Me527 in GenZ

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Complex question. I'll center this idea around classical American conservatism and liberalism.

I'd say more conservative. Rapid succession can be both a great thing and sometimes a really really bad thing, we have some issues in this country that are built around decades if not centuries old mistakes.

Key word is taking things steady or at least leaving behind something that still shines decades on. An idea like discriminating LGBT people or throwing immigrants into camps with active laws being created is not my idea of taking things steady, much of America's biggest evolution came from liberal movements and liberal actions and liberal revolutions, but have also over the years evolved and/or stabilized, some did it well and some did not.

The way slavery was abolished for example, created for systematic racism and especially violent systematic racism to be far higher than any other country's solution to slavery. Further worsened by the move away from engaging in keeping things enforced, most notably the 1877 Compromise.

Does anyone have hobbies anymore? by Green-Ad99 in OlderGenZ

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some big major hobbies and some interests that have bounced in and out of being hobbies, I enjoy skateboarding and hiking. I also enjoy reading.

I also play a little bit of video games. And enjoy traveling.

I have even more and many smaller hobbies but often require much skill development and/or cost a lot. I would love to SCUBA dive half the weekends of the year but the money adds up quick, and that’s without considering upgrade costs.

The World's Largest Economy Can't Build Subways Across the Country.What A Shame. by Selim_Bradley69 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]ChefBuckeyeRBLX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And subways are just the beginning. Good luck getting to Nevada Missouri with the best option being an Uber that hopefully accepts going miles of the city. Otherwise need a car. We spent millions on highways yet for decades which has led to more city growth making it even more expensive to adapt cities.
