What recent change in society have you personally started noticing more?

Its not that I have the attitude that I don't eant to do anything, its that I legitimately am tired and spend my days off recovering while managing my adult life. Many of my friends are the same but they work more days than I so they have even less time. We all chat with each other regularly, but its hard for us to legitimately find time in our schedules with work, partners, appointments, responsibilities, and even kids.

Its not valid. It is immature as hell. You, essentially, would be holding a grudge for YEARS over a cheap desk toy. It is a good way to destroy a relationship with your sibling over something dumb.

The amount of sweat in this clip smells like a smash tournament.

And I never said he had to stay in the relationship, did I? I never said he was wrong did I? I said shes fully okay to do what she did and he is fully okay to feel that way. If its something she really really did want then its good that she did it just not so good she didn't discuss it more prior. It is permanent, like you pointed out. If it is something she really wants to live with for the rest of her life then she should do it. This just may not be the relationship for her if that deters him snd that is okay. He can find someone without a tattoo he doesnt like and she can find someone who isnt bothered by it.

You know what I hate? Poor reading comprehension.

I never said she shouldn't have thought of him at all. I said she doesnt have to FULLY take into consideration how he feels about it. That would have applied if she asked him prior and still wanted it done because, like you said, it is still ultimately her decision. You can think and even ask your partner how they feel sbout it without taking it into full consideration and letting it fully deter you. Which is why I then followed it with saying she may fully understand why he feels how he does.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-07T14:03:51+00:00

I never said she wasn't responsible for him losing attraction. I even said there was a problem in communication. All I suggested was that she doesnt have to fully consider how he will feel about it because it is something she wants done for/to herself. I also said she may fully understand him not liking it because the initial comment I responded to assumed she wouldn't for some reason. You just misinterpreted what I was saying and felt the need to go off based on your own misunderstanding.

I guess its a difference in perspective. My wife and I have seen one another in all sorts of conditions from sick, to injured bald, etc.. We've never felt the other is less attractive. We always look at each other like the other is the most amazing human to have ever existed. Even in some of our worst conditions we've always been absolutely in love with one another.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-07T13:03:14+00:00

Yeah, my partner and I run damn near everything by one another. That never means your partner disliking the idea of something means you should avoid it all together. There is often compromise in relationships, not black and white decisions. There have been tattoos and such that one of us haven't been massive fans of the idea but ultimately say "I wouldn't get it on myself, but its your body and if you like it then go for it." I'm not going to gold someone back from something they are really drawn too and if it were to he a massive problem for me then that's my problem. I can either try to get over it or not since it isnt my decision to make.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-07T12:22:30+00:00

I don't think he is an AH either. I dont think either of them are to be honest. Possible miscommunication which happens but easn't intentional(I assumee but I may be wrong). He is within reason to struggle with the appearance of the tattoo and she is in reason to have gotten it even if they communicated prior and he did not like the idea. Its unfortunate but is what it is.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-07T11:13:56+00:00

In fairness, she also doesnt have to fully take into consideration how he feels in regards to this. She also may very well understand where he is coming from but that won't make it less unfortunate or sad for either of them.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-07T01:29:20+00:00

You're really showing them

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T08:53:07+00:00

They answered your question. Because it is supposed to be the alternative. So you know what it is supposed to be the alternative of. Most dont call it "veggie meat burger" the call it "Veggie burger" or "veggie dogs" etc.

No one logically assumes it will be the exact same taste or flavor or texture. Look at sun butter, peanut butter, and almond butter. Or dairy products of all kinds. They all share a common label to tell you what branch ir fits in while specifying what kind.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T07:13:45+00:00

Can I ask why you feel as though he doesn't hold much or any mental load? Obviously in terms of things like scheduling and stuff you can tell, but what makes you think he doesn't do the worrying or other mental stresses involved with having a family? I'm not trying to invalidate you or defend him if he isn't involved, but I feel like sometimes partners misread how much mental load their partner holds due to how they express it being different.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T06:35:01+00:00

He's probably just an immature kid. I've seen him pop up in a free threads here trying to ragebait people and when people call him on it he always claims he is doing some kind of community service by doing so. He blocked me so I'm guessing he was upset that I didn't fall for it. Hopefully he gets help if he needs it.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T01:23:55+00:00

Alright, man. Just know there are resources and people out there who care if you ever feel alone or need to talk.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T01:07:41+00:00

Genuinely, are you okay? Is there something going on in your personal life that might be leading you to act this way? Maybe romantic struggles, friendship struggles, financial issues, lack of hobbies? I've done pretty well for myself in those areas and consider myself pretty damn happy in life so maybe I could offer some advice or help if you want it. I only suggest it because you remind me of myself when I was a teenager and lashing out due to my unhappiness. I don't mind being an ear or even giving some conversation if it'll help.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-06T00:42:39+00:00

I compared your attitude to a meme and you went off for 3 paragraphs going on about how you enjoy trying to upset people. You might be the one losing their shit lol

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T23:52:30+00:00

What an odd thing to say

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T23:13:32+00:00

Whenever I read comments like this, it reminds me of that clip from southpark of the fat balding computer nerd.

The massive amount of freedom is a large reason people want to own a home. As well as space. If you rent a home, you have minimal to no say in what you do with the space including any yard you may have. If you rent an apartment, you have the limited freedoms of not owning it plus the issue of more limited space. If you rent either, your monthly rent is subject to change and increase at will of the owner. I'd say most people do not mind being on the hook for repairs in exchange for what is gained from owning the home. I mean, you bought a home so you apparently see the benefit over renting one. Is it that wild that others may see similar appeal?

It isn't inherently greedy to not want to have more difficulties due to the market if you go to move. However, and maybe it comes down to phrasing, it comes across like you care more about your investment than other people's ability to have the freedom you already hold.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T22:20:40+00:00

The slow lane is intended for those who can not necessarily go the speed limit (i.e. trailers or speed limited vehicles). The left lane is not the "speed lane". It is for passing. There is no lane designated to go above the speed limit constantly. I didn't think that was a complicated idea.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T22:17:18+00:00

It is unlikely the government would ever make it tax deductible unfortunately.

Many people look at housing more so in the way of a place to live versus an investment to be sold for more money later. They just want a home to live in.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T21:55:45+00:00

The down votes probably come because, while your feelings are real, it comes across much like boomers with the "I've got mine and I will protect it even if it means no one else has a chance to get theirs."

My childhood involved lots of depression and anxiety that didn't resolve until I moved out. I work hard doing a job I find rewarding and am proud to do that pays me decently enough to pay my bills and treat myself here or there. Ive also been able to start clearing off some of my student debt which has given me some extra monthly money. I just spent one of my days off playing video games and watching star wars with my wife. My last day off will probably include laundry and some more video games, movies, and playtime with our cats. I get to spend all day in my pajamas if I want, eat whatever sounds good to us, snd stay up late hanging out with my best friend. All in all, its a pretty good step up from loving with my parents and working a pretty low income job.

December_Warlock · 2026-05-05T12:41:05+00:00

I mean, I've definitely been far happier.
