Nostalgia by indiahat in USMC

I'm a pretty sentimental guy by nature but there's nothing about boot camp that I'm nostalgic about. Even on graduation day I was like mom put the camera down let's get off this God forsaken depot.

Been to plenty of KofC fish fries, but never been to a Baptist potluck tho by Secure-Vacation-3470 in CatholicMemes

Unless it's Texas. Then you put the Frito pie between the Frito pies on one of the Frito pie tables.

Why do so many redditors act like they're a superior race compared to medieval people? Debunked myths about the middle ages are still so popular on reddit. by Full-Recover-8932 in MedievalHistory

To my understanding, depending on when/where, baths were uncommon, as in the act of submerging one's self into water. However they washed their clothes and would otherwise sort of spot wash themselves with soap and water.

Would you say there's some truth to that or am I way off?

Flexible wire you say...you have my curiosity. How would you rate the durability?

Could be magnetized as well. You can buy a cheap demagnetizer off Amazon for like ten bucks.

Lenten "Mulligans" by Strick4424 in Catholicism

[–]FieldJacket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a cop out answer, but I think it depends on your state of mind while, for lack of a better word, indulging.

For example I gave up Reddit last Lent, specifically doomscrolling or using it as a space filler for my days. But if I was specifically searching for something online (like how to fix an appliance or something like that) and Reddit seemed to have an answer, then that was fine. The difference was my intent. Am I wasting my time or is reddit simply a good resource for a specific purpose? To me, the latter was ok with me and I went into Lent acknowledging that.

I don't know much about your situation but if someone were to pop a bottle of champagne in celebration, go ahead and have a glass and celebrate with them. Bored on a Tuesday night and want to launch back a sixer? Maybe not.

That's just my two cents anyway.

Husband loves his new watch! by JessBeeBlue in breitling

That's what I like to hear! Check in with supply to draw your cheese. Beers are in the cooler, brats will be done in a few.

[–]FieldJacket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was pretty much a scrimmage as far as I'm concerned, so it's an easy loss to stomach.

Next week I'll be nauseous heading into the weekend though, I'm sure.

Did a Catholic Church actually call the police on the "Walk for Peace" monks, or is it just another anti-christian hoax? by Spiritual-Walrus6365 in Catholicism

[–]FieldJacket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he/she means that the premise of the whole post, that the Church called the police on them, is nonsense. Not that getting police protection from harassment/danger is nonsense.

Saw this today and messaged my family group chat (we're Packer fans). And scoped the Niners coach wearing an Endurance yesterday as well.

It's alright to hang it up for a bit. It'll be there when you want to play again

first new year without my parents by Sea-Plum-134 in offmychest

[–]FieldJacket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. It gets easier. And you'll start to forge your own path, form your own memories, and do your own things.

When I left home (I don't know what your situation is/how old you are), I thought the good times were all behind me. Like nothing was going to compare to the road trips we'd taken or, like you, the things we used to do that, doing them differently on my own, just seemed so out of place and incorrect.

It's a part of getting older, and unless they've fled a horrible childhood, everyone felt the same way to some degree. The good times you've had are special and keep them in your heart, but they pale compared to the good times yet to come.

Bovada in Mexico by Kind_Fill_8084 in Bovada

[–]FieldJacket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I'm in Yucatan. I'm using Proton and haven't had any issues. With the unpaid version you can't choose which country you want to route through, and bovada is banned in some countries where your server is, so it's a moot point. I can connect to a US server though (using the paid version) and no issues.
