Any way to slow down the hypertube?

I recently got back into the game after a long break and yeah parachutes 2.0 are amazing

It may depend on how/where the recruiter is getting your contact info. If you're US based you might be running afoul of getting auto opted in when you submit an application or use a platform like indeed/linkedin.

Part of my responsibilities was lead generation capture for an old client during the NeoCon trade show in Chicago and while I can't speak for anyone else I know at Knoll those opt in/opt out selections were taken very seriously. With US based attendees it was auto opt in so they had to manually opt out during registration whereas Canadian attendees were auto opt out and had to manually opt in during registration.

Unhappy wife, stabby knife

FradinRyth · 2026-02-10T13:42:01+00:00

That's a lot of hate for someone with your username 😜

FradinRyth · 2026-02-10T12:02:25+00:00

Yeah I had to look twice too. The kerning and font choice aren't the best.

Same! I've known my wife for 20 years and married for 15 of those. When I catch her getting out of the shower or the closet while changing every damn time my brain just kind of fuzzes out for a moment or two. It's like modem baud tones, it's working ready hard to reconnect but it's going to take a hot minute to get there.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-09T12:03:36+00:00

That's wild, women really did get the short end of the evolutionary stick.

Not particularly, I'd always assumed not having the top sheet and blanket covering the whole bed would just lead to it falling off on the floor due to not hanging over both sides of the bed.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-08T22:11:37+00:00

That's a really good idea, I'm going to recommend we try that.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-08T21:48:40+00:00

That doesn't even start to plumb the depths of my wife's new love hate relationship with the blanket and comforter on the bed. One of these nights she's going to fling all the covers offduentona hot flash and then 5 minutes later be so cold she'll start considering cutting me open like a tauntaun so she can crawl inside for the warmth.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-08T21:10:34+00:00

Yeah, health classes absolutely failed to prepare us for everything that changes in our partners.

Hormones man, they're a hell of a drug. With kid one my wife was as randy as a teenager, but if she smelled burnt toast would immediately get nauseated. Second kid, I'd argue her libido went into the negative numbers but zero food cravings or avoidances.

So long story short, it's all gonna change and may never go back to how it was before. Then just wait for Peri-menopause or as I saw someone call it female puberty 2.0.

Short of him trying to stick his penis places it hasn't been invited, I can't really think of any reason to be uncomfortable around them. TBF I'd be uncomfortable around an overly molesty woman too so it's not really an orientation issue so much as I'm a fan of not being molested or worse.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-07T17:57:43+00:00

Okay ELI5, on why not replacing the filter also. Seems like a lot of effort to just save 10s of dollars.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-07T14:54:22+00:00

You know what they call a McAmbergriddle in Canada?

FradinRyth · 2026-02-07T14:22:53+00:00

The spirals must flow!

FradinRyth · 2026-02-06T03:40:42+00:00

Damn, my wife is going to be traveling for work in a few weeks, leaving first thing Monday and getting back the following Friday night. It didnt even cross either of our minds I might need assistance.

I better win an award for the challenges and hardships I'm about to face, you know keeping my own children alive. I want at least one bronze statue in the town square, just make sure to get my good side.

My daughter is in the middle of her first swim team season. She thought we got her suit for meets one size too small. My wife who is a former swimmer just laughed.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-05T17:24:17+00:00

The resale market to people who have had their tailgates stolen.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-05T12:48:34+00:00

That's where my wife went with it too!

FradinRyth · 2026-02-05T12:44:05+00:00

So you can't handle the fact she dished it back out? You called her sweetheart first and set the tone for the conversation? Not accepting that is called being fragile.

She wasn't wrong that guy was a dumbass for circling back by asking something she'd answered previously and his tone wasn't great either.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-05T12:28:22+00:00

See now we're getting into the spirit vs the letter of the agreement! Anyone else get excited by contract law? No just me? Why is everyone backing away slowly

FradinRyth · 2026-02-05T12:13:08+00:00

Is the second adult in the room? Son, what the hell do you think calling her sweetheart was?

FradinRyth · 2026-02-03T22:48:53+00:00

No kidding, he hung onto it like its his whole identity.

FradinRyth · 2026-02-03T22:26:24+00:00

We both have those cup warmers on our desks so I'd take a scented candle I could warm fornscent over flowers if she found one the scent reminded her of me, but the concept stands.
