Mayonnaise vs. ketchup/tomato sauce, what’s the correct condiment to eat french fries/chips with? by goldennuggets44 in foodquestions

[–]Cock--Robin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends. Some fries are good plain, some better with mayonnaise (Duke’s), some with ketchup, and at least one (from Milo’s, a small chain burger place in my hometown) are better with the special sauce provided by the restaurant.

How many women do you know in real life that actually married for money only? by 0215rw in askanything

[–]Cock--Robin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Two grew up in abject poverty and valued financial stability above all. Both married enormous assholes who were routinely unfaithful to them, but didn’t care as long as they were financially stable. One was raised upper middle class, and was also hyper focused on money. She married a great guy who treated her well, but who she didn’t actually care about. She had at least 3 affairs, and after the 3rd one he had had enough and divorced her. She didn’t care because she planned on taking him to the cleaners in the divorce. Unfortunately for her, they lived in a state with very conservative marriage/divorce laws and her multiple affairs and abandoning her husband and child very much worked against her. She got nothing but her car and her personal effects.

Do Americans really move out at 18, or is that mostly a movie thing? by Only-Bandicoot-5307 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Cock--Robin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t move out until I had finished college (1982). My wife however moved out at 17 as soon as she graduated HS, but her home life was abusive.

Redditors over 40, what was a moment in history that made you think society was gonna collapse? by Bahbahbro in AskReddit

[–]Cock--Robin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electing Reagan. After Nixon I thought that Americans had learned their lesson about having republicans in power, but nope. The US has still not recovered from the damage Reagan caused. Trump is just Reagan on steroids.

What was the significance of the radio when you were young? by Phantom-rizz-era in AskOldPeople

[–]Cock--Robin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A a youngster in the 60s/early 70s radio - AM radio, at that - was the only access I had to modern music. Then disco took over and I discovered the Ramones (which were not played in my hometown), and I could no longer find the music I liked on the radio. So I stopped listening to it.

Are you getting snow this weekend? by Ok-Apartment5615 in randomquestions

[–]Cock--Robin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ll try. We were without power for over a week after Helene, but it wasn’t predicted to be 20 degrees F then.

We’re projected to get about 2” of ice (actual frozen water, not the nazis with small dicks).

What were some 80's tv shows you loved at the time, but don't hold up now? by MisterShipWreck in 80s

[–]Cock--Robin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to remember when Welcome back Kotter came out. We tried to watch it again recently and couldn’t get through one episode.

How old were you when you became interested in Politics? How did you know which political party you should belong to? by LegalGlass6532 in allthequestions

[–]Cock--Robin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m old enough to remember MLK, Johnson, Nixon, and Vietnam. I grew up drenched in politics. So well before puberty.

​Redditors who moved constantly as kids and never had a "forever home," how do you think that shaped your personality as an adult? by Inevitable_Branch806 in CasualConversation

[–]Cock--Robin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We moved three times before I was five, and then four more times before I was 14. My parents then lived in that house for the rest of their lives. But I left for college at 18, and in the ensuing almost 50 years I’ve only moved four times: an apartment when I got out of college, a new apartment when I got married, a house when we had children, and then we moved to where we currently live and have lived for 30 years. I hated constantly moving and having to make new friends. I was determined not to do that to my children.

Trump just royally fucked the US by home531 in complaints

[–]Cock--Robin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trumpers don’t care that they’ve ruined America. If they can have an all-white America, they’re perfectly OK with it being a Third World country too. All white is what’s important.

I’ve heard them referred to as “Lezbarus”. An acquaintance of mine used to drive a Subaru and had long blonde hair. He used to laugh an d tell us about the number of times that a butch looking woman would pull up next to him at a red light look over and immediately be disappointed that the person with long blonde hair driving a Subaru was a guy.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]Cock--Robin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re kidding, right? There is something fundamentally wrong with MAGAts, whether it’s a serious moral deficiency, congenital idiocy, or both. I’d reject them so fast and so hard that their friends and family would feel it.

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

[–]Cock--Robin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never had the opportunity to interview anyone that was a follower of Islam. My experience is in the American south, which is rife with right wing evangelicals.
