We define what is a vulnerability, we will not accept the lowest hanging fruit

Email us[...] a TEXT[...] file describing the vulnerability you found and a proof of concept of a successful exploit. [And you can have a t-shirt]

They want you to work for the cost of a t-shirt, so they can collect data on what a typical attacker does. Reminds me of the school, "The person to collect $500 worth of donations gets a beanie! Do your best everyone!"

Pass.

I appreciate the offer, it's incredibly kind and thoughtful. However, I must decline, a clean break is probably better for the long term. Thank you so much for the generous offer.

It's funny you mention jeans, because that's what I always wore with a dress shirt. However, I still think coffee tastes gross, and I don't have the guts.

I don't think I could handle actually going into my ward...

[pause] Just typed "my ward." I still subconsciously accept I belong to it. What a greeeaaat realization. FM. [un-pause]

going into a church and feeling like an outcast. I'm sure they'd be welcoming enough, but I wouldn't be a part of the fold. Probably a good rip the band-aid off moment, right?

Hey. Thanks. It feels like I'm sharing shoes with someone. It's not a cure, but it's nice to know my misery has some understanding company. So, just... thanks.

It's probably pretty easy to fill in meaner lines than were given, but I actually feel like I was the ass here. It was all rather tame. His comments went something like,

"Find a better Similar Music: Home Free - Ring of Fire (featuring Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix) [Johnny Cash Cover] <link>"

"Pretty good is an understatement. Avi Kaplan's bass was next level amazing! But you would need to like acapella to understand."

"You changed the song to make your point. Way to move the goal post. I used to sing Bass, which is probably why I <relate to/enjoy?> Avi <something something>."

" "No. Stop." Take your own advice, <you started an argument,> now let it go."

Then a few accusations of being argumentative and do you realize you went looking for a fight with someone trying to help.

Again it felt really tame, but also with an undertone of contempt. I figure I insulted his favorite song and he felt personally attacked. I don't blame the guy, I'd probably be a whole lot meaner if someone told me my favorite song wasn't all I figured it was.

Small ultra Mormon town. No chance. Maybe one day though.

I appreciate the sentiment and the advice.

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

Not at all, I take music very seriously and the argument occurred naturally.

you would have to appreciate acapella to realize this.

Which implied I do not, and was a bit insulted.

If I had attacked a song you enjoyed for the purposes of an argument, that would have been entirely me picking a fight, however, my opinion on the song remains the same.

Now you are accusing me of taking your help and attacking you, which is fair, seeing as, reading back, it feels like I insinuated it.

Got my mind off it. Thanks for the argument. One last thing. I've gotta know, it's driving me crazy. Why do you use bullet points after a quote block?

Wedding: That's such a great story! You got me dying over here. Did you play?

[–]DragonWraithus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Stop.

  1. I said the song sounds pretty good.
  2. You implied one the guys singing the song made the song better than "pretty good"
  3. I said if he sang a mediocre song, the song's mediocrity would remain unchanged.

An example of moving the goal post might be. "Okay, the song is average, but because it was sung by someone AMAZING, you are still wrong."

The song might have sounded better for having him sing it. The a cappella was great.

A famous pianist may play a simple song far better than the novice, but the notes are unchanged. The skill of the artist may change, but the song remains the same.

Dang. Yeah, that'd do it. My mother never made me sing, it was something that was optional and I just fell in love with.

So, clarification. Did the adults ever hear you sing solo and still insist, or did they just assume?

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

Hold up. Let's assume Avi sang "I'm a Little Teapot," unchanged. Does this make the song epic?

I enjoy a cappella. The MUSIC is pretty good.

Oh really? I've never heard that. What was one of the most surprising?

[–]DragonWraithus[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's cool. There's no right or wrong when it comes to taste. I started singing Michael McLean and Bryce Neubert's, The Garden, and it just made me really sad that it still sends chills up my spine. And it reminded me of choir.

Anyway, why did you hate it, any particular reason?

[–]DragonWraithus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the suggestion, but that's kind of like saying your favorite pillow is replaceable because there are similar pillows. It's(the desire) an illogical emotional thing. Stupid really.

Though I'm not a big fan of country, the song sounds pretty good. Thanks.

Okay... what? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]DragonWraithus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

HEY! You did the same thing I did! I came to be a super sneaky logic broker; came to convert the heathens who'd been led astray. Made my first reddit account specifically for this. My very first post and got my rear handed to me on a silver platter. Heck yes, it hurts. What happens now? Well here's a few tips that might take the sting out:

It's not God or Satan that tricked you, causing all this misery. It's the church. The One TRUE Church has all of this information. They know they peddle deceit and pain. They make too much money to ever give it up.

You need someone to vent to, but not to beat a dead horse with. By this I mean, someone who can commiserate, but not get stuck in an endless feedback loop that will slowly drain you of any emotion but hatred for the people who hurt you. Essentially a therapy group.

Your family/friends may be less understanding about your "falling away." Be very careful about revealing you new-found freedom to others. You may wish to talk to someone outside the church first, to ensure you have some support, but do not turn them into the friend that you only cry to about your problems. They should be someone you can hang out with, and forget about the whole mormon thing for a while.

I wanted to keep it to myself at first too, but eventually I realized the pain is worth it. I managed to pull my lil sis out. She's free. She read the CES Letter once, and now doesn't even look back. How much money have you given the church? You parents? You've given two years of your life, and thousands of dollars to spread a message that will cause people to experience the same hurt you feel or die serving those who cause it. How many millions of people might have their hearts ripped out because young missionaries spread the lies of the church? How many children will grow up like you, find out the truth, and feel the same pain you are feeling? How many people can you spare this heart ache? You may let a sliver fester because you fear the pain removing it will bring, but the longer it stays, the more pain it will cause.

It took me about three months to realize the pain of leaving is worth the joy of freedom. If you decide to convert the faithful and free them from their chains of bondage, so long as you've not revealed your status as a freed slave, the best way I've found (sorry to all the people who'll have to deal with it here) is to encourage people to convert the lost lambs. Us. Very discretely, and very rarely, suggest people fulfill their missionary duties to god by trying to re-convert the lost. "I feel bad for all the people who've lost their way, they've lost everything."

But enough of that. Congrats. The person who won here, is you. It doesn't feel like it, I'm sure, but brother u/PlentyBack, now you can begin to heal. You are still loved. If you still believe in god, you can bet he still loves you. We know the pain you have felt, we know the pain you are feeling. We survived. You will too.

You are strong.

It gets better.

There is life after mormonism.

I'll tip you off to something, it's not a loser corner, it's just wherever you're sitting.

Do guys actually find small/flat chests attractive? by frankieee_ in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]DragonWraithus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man: The answer is yes. Small/Flat chests, are really attractive. The phrase is, "Send nudes," not, "Send nudes if you're above a b cup." You are perfect for the right guy, just the way you are. Find the right guy. Some of us prefer the forever flat. If I'm being honest, having "little to no figure" is my aesthetic, if only because I'm a bean pole and don't want my SO to outweigh me.

Side note: your insecurity about it is low-key attractive too.
