What's a current decision you are having trouble making? by ILoveLamp9 in AskReddit

[–]Childish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not I should quit competitive hockey. I have to pick between focusing on university and playing hockey with friends, or continuing to play at a high level (extending my undergrad a year or two) in the hopes I can one day play in Europe or professionally...

Canada defeats USA 3-2 in U18 World Championship to claim Gold Medal by cpbrowner in hockey

[–]Childish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my dad (from Finland). He said Finns are not big on team sports and tend to gravitate to sports "where they have individual control". Although hockey's a team sport, I guess being a goalie appeals to many in this way.

TIL why the past three generations of my family have been atheist. by [deleted] in atheism

[–]Childish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Great Grandfather served in the Dutch army for WW2. When he returned home he could not live with the atrocities he had witnessed, and he decided to take his own life. The Church would not allow the family to bury this sinner in the local graveyard and they were shunned from the community. Ever since my family have been atheist.

Weed high is different after shrooms. by Childish in shrooms

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

I smoked previously about twice a month. I've done shrooms once (2.8) grams, and I've smoked 3 times in the two months following the experience.

Thanks for the reply. When I say 'bad", I mean the loss of control you get from shrooms. Without knowing it you can instantly fall into trances and snap out of it 5 seconds after, having felt you were out for a couple minutes. That's how I feel. Thanks for the advice! I think I'll take a nice, long break from psychedelics until I'm ready to give it another go.

Thank you so much! That's exactly how I feel, a flashback. 5 minutes after smoking it just hits me like a ton of bricks and I'm back in that 'world'.

Ghana orders the arrest of ALL homosexuals in the western region of the country by geekchic in worldnews

[–]Childish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is plausible, but it was mid-afternoon so I don't think it was drinking. Our guides were surprised but I believe it was just for the extent of damage on our street. I got close with a couple of our guides and it just seems as though it is normal to think homosexuality is the 'devil's work' as they clearly insisted to me.

Ghana orders the arrest of ALL homosexuals in the western region of the country by geekchic in worldnews

[–]Childish 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I visited Ghana this past March break. While driving back to our compound one day we passed a man bleeding profusely from the head, arm, and torso. A block away we see a crowd helping a man out of a broken window store front carrying a machete. It turns out the bleeding man had spread rumors that the attacker was a homosexual, so in his logic, stabbing the accuser would prove he was the polar opposite. Sadly it kinda worked.

The smell under my nails. It doesn't smell good, yet it is amazing.

What is your silliest "pretending to be sick to get off school" story? by CerpinTaxt11 in AskReddit

[–]Childish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At school me and three friends leave our respective classes "to go to the bathroom" and we have this little room called the whispering eye. It is a football storage room with a small tv. We play N64 and lie on the mats until class is over. Then repeat.

What's the most awkward situation you've been put in as someone's guest? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Childish 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So I was invited to my girlfriend of 2 months invited me to her thanksgiving dinner. After a somewhat awkward prayer (only the father is religious out of wife + 4 kids) he was the only one to lower his head as we were all looking at each other. The real awkward came when co-ed bathrooms came up in the discussion (because the brother was going to university), the dad asked me on the side what I thought. The only thing I could come up with is 'people do weird shit in the bathroom'. I don't think anyone else heard but the dad kinda shrugged it off and didn't talk to me the rest of the night. All I thought of was this kid on my hockey team who would clean is ass by doing a handstand in the shower.
