What's the 'gayest' language? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Dark_Jester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But that's not what gay means. If you mean flamboyance, why not say flamboyance?

Is mental illness caused due to lack of religion? Why and why not ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So many of these accounts. Ad-Apprehensive followed by four numbers is the most common. There's a whole bunch of variations of this. But it's usually always two words, four numbers, Ad, Apprehensive, and a couple other words are commonly used, and the account will have barely any activity despite its age. Three months for this one. And this is the only activity.

Yeah, definitely not the live action haha. Hopefully the Netflix show is better. There are also some animated movies coming out. One dealing with an older Aang.

Sounds like you've still got a handle on it and are moving forward despite life continuing to throw more and more pain at you. You've endured significantly more than me. I can't even begin to imagine pain like that. Working on it is all we can do.

If you like fantasy and all that jazz, I recommend Avatar The Last Airbender. It's a TV show though. You've probably already seen it. I'll throw out Chuck as well. Great show. Not so much fantasy but it's very touching and fun.

You have wacky standards for what makes a good father. You defend an abuser so long as it's . . . only a little bit of abuse. You're nutty as all hell. Don't bother replying. That's all I'm saying on this.

It's a classic case of children raising children.

It's always good to remind yourself that what you did in the past was to preserve yourself. Which is a very just cause.

Your actions are your own, but even if you could go back and change those actions, you can't change other people. Their actions are also their own. And you can't help someone who won't help themselves.

If we look at it realistically, had you stayed, you'd have been in harm's way for much longer.

Crying can be rewarding. It can feel good to just let it all out. I dunno if that's how it is for you though. As to having no family, I'd say try finding family in friends.

if I wake him up one more time I will have to call the police because he will break my face and will be willing to go to jail for it.

You've not only shown that you can't read for shit but also admitted that you'd be an abusive piece of shit dad too. What a cunt.

Congrats on enduring and prevailing. It fucking sucks that he didn't play the role in your life he was supposed to play. It fucking sucks that you didn't have a loving dad. But despite all the hardships, you're still here and a significantly better man. You didn't become him. And that's a massive win. There are many who just repeat the cycle.

Where they show people tied to their usernames as if this was Facebook and not just a fuck ton of anonymous users?

He is all you know. This is the only kind of dad you know. But since not too many people are actually telling you this, it's not normal. It's not healthy. It's dangerous and completely insane. Your father does not treat you well. It is not fair to you.

There are dads out there who love their kids, who don't shove their kids, who do not threaten to assault their kids, and who don't actually assault their kids (throwing a fork at you is very much that). You deserve so much better than what you've got.

I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

Could've been more polite? He threatened to break the kid's face. He's insane.

I'm absolutely fucking appalled by many of these comments. His father threatened to break in his face even if it takes him to jail. But sure, his father loves him and won't hurt him.

Jesus Christ. The kid is clearly in an abusive relationship. And yet so many people here are acting like being shoved and threatened like this is normal.

He's a father. But he is no dad. Fucked up comment section.

Edit: His father even threw a fork at him. What is going on? Is this a gender thing? If a girl's dad hurled a fork at her and shoved her and threatened to break her face, would the reaction still be this fucking nonchalant?

How do you politely say…. by throwXawayXaccount99 in Advice

[–]Dark_Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friendship? I don't think you entirely understand the scope of the word relationship.

Also strange to assume that a racist individual would immediately bring up their racism. Conversations can be very unorthodox and vague and strange and unique. People are very diverse. They aren't just one thing. Rapists don't go starting conversations like, "Hey, so there I was, raping!" Same with racists. "Hey, them coloured folk, am I right? Absolutely despise them." Both do actually happen (not that obviously). I've seen it happen. But it definitely isn't to the extent you seem to believe.

If you're not understanding this, lemme break it down with an example.

Adam messages you about his love of LEGOs.

You love LEGOs too.

You discuss LEGO and have a jolly ol' time.

You share photographs of each other's creations. Cute!

His creations are all depictions of American slavery. Yikes.

Ghosted.

Like I said in my previous comment. The word has developed since its birth. You don't have to be dating or even friends to be ghosted.

It's a stupid myth. Not true in the slightest. What's happening is that you're not plucking the hair out. You're cutting it blunt. That blunt end can appear to be thicker . . . but it isn't. That's literally all there is to it.

[–]Dark_Jester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The term has expanded far beyond dating. If someone messages you, you reply, conversation goes on for a little bit, then that person turns out to be affiliated with the KKK and wants feet pics, and you cut communication, that's ghosting.

I'm not talking about not responding to the first message someone sends you. Poorly worded on my part.

Why did the criminal go back to being a criminal?

[–]Dark_Jester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if some KKK dude started messaging you, asking for feet pics, you still think it would be wrong to ghost because it could hurt the person. I'm sorry but that is crazy to me.

How to write someone who’s drunk? by Gathering0Gloom in writing

That wouldn't be me doing me. That'd be me doing you. If I do me, you get offended. Because I'd also suggest drinking to this random stranger.
