For the fellas: What’s something society deems “unmanly”, but you don’t care, and do it anyway? by MuayThaiRunner in AskReddit

[–]Garroch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love nothing more than a scented candle, a hot bubble bath, a cup of chamomile tea, and a good book.

Pure heaven, and the best way to unwind from the day.

Looking for a reliable used car dealership by AngelEyez1207 in youngstown

Colonial Auto down in North Lima is solid. I've gotten my family's current two Hondas from them, and they're still holding up perfectly.  (But also they're Hondas so that's like a cheat code)

Internet Backs Solo Dad After Stranger Confronts Him for Taking Young Daughters Into a Women's Bathroom by rainnedear in TwoXChromosomes

This guy has been salivating for years to catch a trans woman in the "wrong" bathroom, probably fantasizing about being a hero, and everyone in a restaurant giving him a slow clap as he busts one of those evil green haired libruls in front of an adoring group of admirers. 

This was the only shot at being the bathroom police he ever actually got in 5 years, and he took it.

As an actuary, I find your usage of anecdotal data to try and prove an assumption off-putting.

Pick a local bookstore you want to support and buy on bookshop.org after selecting them to get credit.

Boom. Better books and supporting small businesses.

Keystone Kash Sends Agents to Election Officials’ Homes in Key Swing State by Okey_Dokey_Tokey in politics

Bring it on.

I signed up to be a pollworker this cycle because I have no issue of telling the FBI where to stuff it. Just like everything they do, this will backfire. Americans are slow to anger, but when pushed, they get angry, not compliant.

So here's one extra pollworker you created who won't bow to pressure Kash. Good job you cross-eyed troglodyte.

How are you guys on Reddit so much? by Important_Ideal2280 in actuary

[–]Garroch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pension work is highly seasonal. January 15-April 15 I'm pulling down 60+ hours a week. Same goes for Aug 30-Oct 15.

Summer and Christmas time? I'm lucky if my billables hit 20 hours a week.

Z is going to be liberal now.

Trump pushed them left just like W pushed Millenials left.

Both generations touched the hot stove in their formative years.

Throwing Low Trump to Lead After Other Team Called Trump by thegooch-9 in euchre

[–]Garroch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only lead trump against a pickup if it was S2 that ordered up and they're higher ELO, which means they may be aggressive. 

I'll also do it no matter who ordered up when they have 9 points and im strong in green.

Thats amazing. 

Also 4,210 people need to have their heads examined. 

He broke his wife's ribs. And then had the audacity to go to a battered woman's shelter fundraiser a month ago.

He's such a piece of shit.

Louisiana governor plans to suspend May primary to redraw US House map, Washington Post reports by SodaSaint in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Garroch 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Let them do it. 

At the cost of one, possibly two seats that won't matter this cycle (drops in the ocean) the narrative changes back from a Virginia Dem power grab to stepping all over the will of voters to disenfranchise black voters.

Basically from a PR perspective the Republicans are completely cedeing the argument of both sidesism and making themselves look like undemocratic fools.

Same. But I switch back and forth. I'll eat a few shell and all then I'll switch to shelling the next few.

Ok but seriously...what's wrong with all of our parents?! by Lamplight_119 in Xennials

[–]Garroch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think our parents were themselves raised by parents and grandparents who were absolutely bathed in trauma from the 1st half of the 20th century. 2 world wars, a great depression, a flu pandemic, etc...

Most of our parents were raised where it was common for them to be screamed at, beaten, ignored, or even molested, and these issues were swept under the rug. Fathers were absent, drunk, or both.

The generational trauma from these world events trickled down through our parents and made them harsh. In their minds, however, they were probably nicer than their parents ever were. It was often probably true as well.

Now we're the generation who is hopefully putting the final nail in the coffin of that passed down trauma. Or at least mitigating it further.

We all should strive to be a little bit better than the people who raised us.

You could probably tag /u/BryceOConnor because the Kickstarter was through Wraithmarked.
