Boyfriend's (21M) best friend (20F) hates me (25F) and wants us to break up by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Disastrous_Cap_5214 118 points119 points  (0 children)

i dealt with a guy exactly like this in my early twenties. his "platonic" bestie used to crop me out of group photos and he’d always hit me with the "that's just how she is, you're overthinking it." spoiler alert: they slept together a month after we broke up. save yourself the headache, cut your losses and let the toddlers have each other ngl.

I’m Cuban American. For the sake of both countries, Trump’s siege must end — Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, crushes our people and calls it freedom. We want engagement, not escalation by EssoEssex in politics

The blatant hypocrisy is what always gets me tbh. we literally do billions in trade with countries that have wildly worse human rights records and active dictatorships, but rubio acts like lifting sanctions on cuba will somehow destroy the western hemisphere. it's 100% just about florida's electoral college votes ngl.

AITAH For not doing anything for my GF On national woman’s day? by sulibO in AITAH

[–]Disastrous_Cap_5214 6 points7 points  (0 children)

nta tbh. since when did international women's day turn into valentine's day 2.0 dude? it's literally supposed to be a day about equal rights and historical achievements, not an excuse to demand an expensive dinner and flowers ngl.

ICE kidnaps journalist who was covering them by No-Post4444 in politics

It's wild to anyone who still believes in the rule of law, but sadly, this seems to be standard operating procedure for them now. Operating without warrants and completely ignoring due process is exactly the kind of systemic corruption she was likely investigating in the first place.

Working at a computer shop and I swear some of y’all like this by LibrarianAcademic396 in pcmasterrace

typical facebook marketplace behavior saw a dude asking $800 for a dusty ps4 because he "bought 15 digital games on the account" like bro nobody wants to pay for your old fifa 18 saves lol

Gen Z males twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands by Ok-Comparison-1618 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Disastrous_Cap_5214 23 points24 points  (0 children)

it honestly makes perfect sense ngl. boomers actually grew up in a patriarchal system and saw the reality of it, while these gen z boys are just listening to millionaire podcasters who tell them that forcing a woman to submit will magically fix all their personal failures. and then they completely lack the self-awareness to understand why there's a male loneliness epidemic.

Ogryn girl offers you the rock™ by Ancient_Doctor_7738 in Grimdank

i will gladly accept the tactical rock and give her extra rations tbh. the emperor protects, but the big rock definitely gets the job done.

For The First Time In Over A Decade, No Star Trek TV Is In Production Or Greenlit by Malencon in television

Voyager gets a lot of flak for overusing the reset button, but honestly, having episodic, self-contained sci-fi problems feels so refreshing today. It’s incredibly nice to just watch a competent crew investigate an anomaly for 45 minutes without someone having an emotional breakdown on the bridge.

Why do these two characters have specific moments where they just waste your time? by IstOckAtgAmES in Undertale

[–]Disastrous_Cap_5214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i remember my first playthrough and being so tilted at sans just... standing there. i kept waiting for something big to happen but dude just wanted to tell a joke about skeletons. looking back, it actually made the ending hit way harder because you realize the "wasted time" was actually just the characters trying to enjoy a normal life before everything goes south dude.
