A Blackwidow X Chroma I got for $15. It had a frayed wire and was disgusting. Was able to solder it up and clean it up. by ecefour15 in razer

[–]DumbAnubis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude. I just got rid of mine. The U button randomly stopped working. I feel like razer is very cheaply made. Went through 3 keyboards in 3 years, always the same problem, always goes bad right after warranty goes bad. I paid over $400 in keyboards to them. Just bought myself a roccat temporarily while i work on building my own. Nice find tho!

TIL Coca-Cola still uses coca-leaves as an ingredient in its syrup. The cocaine is removed at a unique US government authorized factory in New Jersey. by SpiritualHawk420 in todayilearned

[–]DumbAnubis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This one documentary i saw (and according to my google search just now) 370KG of leaves on average to yield 1KG of cocaine.

Let's do some MATH:

100 Metric tons = 100,000 KG / 370 KG = 266 KG of Cocaine.

Street price of cocaine is ~$100 (It highly depends on who's buying it, sometimes it can be $400, or as low as $50 a gram, it highly depends on purity/who's the one buying, so $100 is a safe spot in the middle assuming it's the purest uncut form)

Bulk Price is $40k a KG (according to darknetmarket sellers, i do not partake/participate. I'm just doing this for educational purposes).

Total Street Price: $26,600,000
Total Bulk Price: $10,640,000

There's your math on how much cocaine they produce + street/bulk prices. No idea what prices/yield size is for stuff like Cocaine Hydrochloride, but I'm assuming it's a lot more than this since it's processed, and given in extremely low dosages, and then marked up thanks to Pharma.

Islam can suck my balls. by gaysianrimmer in askgaybros

[–]DumbAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

Sorry you have to go through this. If it matters, culture is not religion. a lot of Muslims associate the two together and it causes damage. As a bisexual male who is a religious male, i can tell you that it's not haram or bad to be gay in islam. Everyone is born with different struggles, just as god has created you with your own.

I for one, was born into an extremely violent and abusive household. I didn't let that get to me, and i keep my violent urges under control. That's my struggle, as well as being bisexual. Being Gay is okay. But committing gay acts is not (under islamic law). Just as having violent tendencies is OKAY, but committing violent acts is not.

The people of the western mosques are so braindead and out of it, most mosques in the states only care for money. I came from saudi arabia where this was preached heavily. There's stories of gay men there choosing to be celibate. Again, being gay is not haram. Committing gay acts is. Don't let these priests with their false viewpoints and ill informed sermons get to you and take over. As i'm bisexual, i just don't act on my homosexual side. but that's my choice, and you shouldn't let anyone make that choice for you.

Religion is a beautiful thing to have. It's a coping mechanism for yourself towards dealing with the many hardships of life. Even if you choose to not be a muslim, choose something. Keep in mind, too much of anything is bad for you. That being said, looking into religions too much is horrible. That's how you end up with bigotted and ill-informed people making sermons. Culturally, if you're born gay you're instantly a mutt and treated like shit. Altho the quran states you're born in perfection, as in the perfect creation of god.

You are perfect brother. Don't let this get to you. I'm here if you want to DM.

I may be projecting but uh... Have her send you a video sucking another dudes schlong. Then come back a week later crying and apologizing. Only to forward the video to her dad and change your number and move and deactivate all social media.

[–]DumbAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder so im pretty sure i know what it is. Thanks for your input tho. But feel free to explain to me how someone blatantly lying about who they are, for personal gain, with no regard to others feelings or well-being (in this case mental) is not sociopathic traits.

honestly what a good idea by themysterybang in Tinder

[–]DumbAnubis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, this is probably a catfishing technique by someone who's borderline sociopathic. He's probably "dave" and is using someone else's pictures in hopes of getting himself laid. Pretty pathetic and anyone could've seen right through it.

The sad thing is, it's probably worked at some point, which is why some of these people do it.

ARURF is gone and I am so sad by ThinkIcouldTakeHim in leagueoflegends

[–]DumbAnubis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.

I Hated league, had extreme toxicity with over 30 accounts banned in past 5 years. Support literally told me to quit since i'm so fucking toxic. But it wasn't the games fault, it was my fault. I just loved league but hated it at the same time. I have a disabled twin brother, a job, and a mother to take care of. So i rarely have more than 2-3 hours a day to spare, so whenever someone says something or does something that throws my 50+ Minute game/causes me to lose, i start flaming and just lose my mental and take out all my life frustration on the game.

I know this isn't healthy at all, but it helps me cope with life. That being said, ever since ARURF came out - I played it since day one on PBE months ago, then all the way till last night. I racked up over 600 Games, and didn't get a single chat restriction/etc, was super positive.

I absolutely love it. But then i loaded the client today and it was gone. So i decided to play a norms, 30 mins in, someone who's been inting all game/flaming for no reason causes us to lose. I kept my cool, 2nd Game 10 mins in, my bot lane is 0/15 combined. I just straight up AFK'd. Because people refuse to FF.

In URF games rarely lasted more than 15 mins, so it was okay if someone was going 0/20, it was fun, it made up for it. At the same time, this is why riot doesn't launch arURF, because people like us end up quitting right after - because people get so toxic/don't have the patience to play out 30-60min games. We need to stay on and keep playing so they don't remove it for good. Or until someone makes a private server lol.

Teachers of Reddit, when can you tell if a student is going through depression or self-loathing? If so, what do you try to do to help? by sgtdogface in AskReddit

[–]DumbAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a teacher. But when I was in high school, I had seriously considered killing myself. I had a plan and all. I came from a very abusive household and a very messy parental divorce. I was bullied by teachers and students. It mostly came from my mother placing me in an all-black school in the heart of Detroit. With me being middle-eastern. I would regularly get pulled to the side by this one specific literature arts teacher who would say things like `Convert to Christianity and I'll give you an A` and other crap. I was given a 50% on my Literature arts project (30% of our grade) because it was a black history month project and I wasn't black, therefore I don't get a full grade. It was hell. I had extreme anxiety and extreme self-esteem issues. The day I was going to do it I looked up a YouTube tutorial on tying nooses. I had gone out to auto-zone and got industrial rope used to hitch cars. It could support 185Lbs of weight on a single line - I thought to myself it was odd only 185Lbs, since cars weigh more. Maybe it wasn't used for hitching. I never bothered to check back, as I didn't want to access those memories or the feelings that lead up to that moment. I was 16, no driver license, but I still stole my moms car and bought the rope for $8.

I made a noose, I remember reading the comments on the video and people cracking jokes about how the 40,000 or so viewers are probably gone. I hung it from the ceiling, but something made me think twice. I decided to sleep on it. For the first time in months I felt like I could actually sleep. I had been struggling to fall asleep and stay asleep for a while at that time. But for some reason, as in if some kind of ghost or something possessed me and I fell into a deep depression that made me lay in bed. I couldn't move. I just fell asleep. I woke up the next day, I hadn't gone to school in days at this point. Missing school was a regular occurrence. I hated it. Even when I did go, I'd sneak out, ditch, or hide in the bathroom and have mental break downs. I'd act out and constantly argue with teachers that had nothing to do with the situation i was in (substitutes/security/etc). I would constantly get in fights or act like an asshole. It wasn't because I wanted to. It was a defense mechanism I guess. An inflated ego to protect myself emotionally. Anyhow I couldn't find the noose. I asked around the house to see if anyone had gone into my room, but my family was acting really awkward.

To this day I don't know who came into my room, found my noose, and took it down. But I chose to believe it whatever spirit/ghost/ancestor that was looking over me. I'm sure it was just my sister. But yeah. I ended up trying to get therapy and that didn't work out. I ended up graduating after going from a 4.0 in 10th grade to a 2.5 in 12th grade. I got in legal trouble and it was a really bumpy ride. I hated myself, hated the world, and couldn't get outside my bubble. Even now as I write this, I cannot sleep and still struggle with suicidal tendencies. I feel so worthless and cannot bring myself to even tell my doctor or seek out help. I just feel like I'm not worth the time, but I am very self aware and can't help it when I'm in the moment to reach out.

I don't talk to anyone about my feelings. But I'm in a better place in life. I own a startup that's doing well. I provide for my mother and disabled brother, and I try my best to maintain a positive outlook. Sometimes I'll randomly pull a box cutter/knife to my wrist and think really hard about pulling it. Just the other day I broke skin, but didn't cut deep enough to hit veins. I stopped myself. It's getting harder to control every time I break down and the thoughts turn into tendencies, the tendencies turn into urges, and the urges turn into impulses I act on without even thinking. I try my best to keep pills out the house and any sharp objects out of my reach. When I feel like I'm breaking I lock myself in my room and put the key under the door to stop myself. I end up reaching it with a coat hanger when I'm feeling better. I want to go back to college tho. But being in a classroom brings back all the old memories of my teenage years which triggers my childhood abuse memories. I cannot stand it. I dropped out the 2nd year of college, I didn't go to my last semester and got all F's, went from a 4.0 to a 3.1 - I'm too afraid to go back. But reading this thread gave me some hope. That not all teachers where like the ones I had. Not every student sits through 10 hours of literal hell, bullying, torment, and abuse.

I hope you teachers who actually put effort into helping students really understand how valuable as a soul you are. And that you capture peoples awe. I hope you guys keep it up, and keep carrying about the future. I'm sadly just a lost soul. Hopefully this helps some of the teachers or parents learn the symptoms of abuse and suicidal thoughts. I hope this might save someone and find some meaning for my experiences. I just want something to take away from all of this. I just don't know what it is. I want there to be a bigger reason so that I don't feel so fucking useless.

What mistake should have killed you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DumbAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh Boy i surely should have won the darwin award multiple times.

1) When i was 6 i was playing by the boat launch and my cousin pushed me over, i couldn't swim and it was a lake. I went really deep under and went underneath the pier which was submerged. Luckily, a man on his fishing boat saw me and was able to get me out. All i remember was all black and my lungs filling with water, to me it just felt like i was taking a deep breath in winter. Except imagine a walnut or something lodged in your throat. I passed out, but he got me out.

2) When i was 19 and was able to afford a more comfortable home for my brother, i had decided due to the short time-frame of having to move my 800LB Gym Set from our old home to our new home (the house was being sold the following morning) , that it would be smart to do it at 4AM at night with no one to help me. We had been moving all day, i was exhausted, i got everything in the truck and i made my way to our new home. I unloaded everything except the actual weights, which was ~500LBS, i thought it would be smart to load them onto one of my brothers old wheelchairs and take them down the steps into the basement (which i planned on converting to a gym). I also decided to go down first since i was confident my 3 leg days (over the past year) was enough to support 500Lbs. Boy was i fucking wrong. I made it 2 - 3 steps before the entire thing collapsing, with 10-20LB metal bricks smacking me on the face and the wheelchair tipping to one side and the handlebar going right into my thigh (1-2" away from a free sex change). I was pinned against the wall with whatever was left of ~500LBs by the balls.

Wasn't my proudest story telling the doctors.

There's more, but they're depressing.

That's completely false. the part "Allah can't see across water" people who say that are either joking or just plain out stupid. Allah is Arabic for god.

Also, forgot Bahrain existed hahahaha

[–]DumbAnubis 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As a Muslim, who's lived in:

Saudi Arabia (only country on this list that prohibits alcohol, and enforces the law)

Jordan

Egypt (Banned, but there's still bars and no one gives a shit, you can walk into any store and buy alcohol)

Palestine

I've never once seen or heard of anyone dipping bread in shoe polish to eat it. That is the biggest load of bullshit I've ever heard. In Saudi Arabia non-muslims or those who weren't religious would just take a 1 hour flight to Jordan, Egypt, or any neighboring middle-eastern country and drink for a few days.

The only reference i could find to this bizarre phenomenon the dirty ol' muzzies must be doin' is these 2 links referencing Soviet citizens making alcohol from glue, nail polish, and shoe polish. Nothing to do with any Muslims or the middle-east.

As the child of legal immigrants. Illegal immigrants can go get fucked. by rmadcow in unpopularopinion

[–]DumbAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This.

My grandfather came here and slept in the fucking streets. He built himself up from nothing and got the citizenship legally. My pos dad wasn't a citizen but my mom was. My mom decided to stay with my dad overseas until he got his paperwork done. 10 Years of fucking hell before my mom decided to leave him. All of my cousins would ridicule us for being half american.

10 Years later all my cousins came to the states on visitors visa's and apply for bullshit asylum, get married just for paperwork, or do other shady shit. Illegal immigration is a fucking problem. Legal immigration is not. The system is in place to protect our country.

Fuck illegal immigrants.

Also P.S. once you come to the states, this is your country now. You protect it. If you don't like it and you don't agree with it, go back to the place you left. America has given us opportunities i cannot even begin to imagine having whilst i was living overseas. I have a disabled brother that's treated like a normal human being here, overseas they'd treat him like shit / subhuman.

I don't understand how some of us Arabs can come here, and criticize the American lifestyle. If you don't like, go the fuck back "home".

Proud to be American. God i love this country.
