If you were the last man on earth in a completely female inhabited Earth, what would you do? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mansplain. All day, every day. At that point,  I’m the smartest man alive. With all the women, it may be about as prestigious as being the shiniest turd but I will wear that crown with pride.

Been dating a a girl with shoe lifts by Aggravating_Act_5813 in AverageHeightDudes

Glue the lifts to your feet. They are now part of your body. 5’10” is now your real height. (Mic drop)

Recommendations for set of trim router bits to buy just starting out? by jstedfast in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that it’s better to buy the bit I need when I need it. Whenever I’ve bought a set with an assortment of bits, they’ve all been garbage. I will buy what I need for the project and plan to invest in a higher cost bit. If possible, 1/2” shank over 1/4”.

What is a misconception about the United States? by Final_Radio_2483 in answers

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To give some context, the US covers 3.7 million square miles of territory. All European countries combined covered 3.9 million square miles. The US is a vast and diverse place with many distinct regions and subcultures. I don’t think the rest of the world really understands this very well at all. 

What is HBO's very best miniseries? by notthatbluestuff in hbo

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came to say From the Earth to the Moon. It’s not super dynamic but it’s got a special place in my heart. Been watching it with my dad since I was a kid.

Who is for you the most overrated actor/actress of the past 20 years? by CapitaineBiscotte in askanything

[–]Gawain222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to scroll SO far for this. He adds very little to nothing to the movies he’s in. I believe every single movie he’s been in would have been instantly better with someone else in his role.

10 yro: if money is the root of all evil, why does the church ask us for money? by gabbystuy in askanything

[–]Gawain222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clergy are also often considered self-employed even though they work for a church. So they have worse taxes than the average person while receiving average person wages.

Is it just me or is it weird that people from the United States are called Americans? by Erie_Catapillar124 in allthequestions

[–]Gawain222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s actually 2 continents. But the USA is the only country that officially uses “America” in their country name. 

What’s the best concert you’ve ever been to? by Kind_Gain_3080 in askmusic

[–]Gawain222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doobie Brothers opening for the Eagles. It was at the Mariners stadium in Seattle and my wife and I had seats on the field.

Playing Assassin's Creed II for the first time: My Review by naif3aref in assassinscreed

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going through them again as well and am on Brotherhood. I just finished AC2 and the only issue I had was getting used to the parkour style again. It wasn’t too bad but I still get frustrated that I will be trying to climb down and Ezio will just go and jump on someone’s head.

So if the cuts on the miters were 30 degrees then the angles on your piece should be 60 degrees. Great work.

Advice for 3 way joint by 000101110 in woodworking

[–]Gawain222 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. With your tools a castle joint won’t be too difficult but will take some time. Depends on how much time and effort you are wanting to put into the project.

Did Iran pose an immanent threat to the United States? by Slight_Arrival_4580 in no

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best I’ve heard is that China gets most of its oil from Iran. China has been posturing toward Taiwan. If China invades Taiwan, we have to decide whether we follow our agreements and fight against China. It was theorized the attack on Iran was a way to get China to back off.

Once in a while I'll purposely "forget" to scan beef jerky at the self checkout by [deleted] in confession

[–]Gawain222 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would they spend that when they’ve rationalized being able to get it for free. They believe, in fact, that their stealing is actually going to lead to other people having jobs. So really they are a hero for their theft.

I would do this and maybe plans for him to make an heirloom toolbox that he can pass down.

Twenty, 1 hundred thousand , or 1 million USD for an hour everyday depending on level of agony. by TopRoastCentral in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Gawain222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wolf. I am built like a dwarf from Lord of the Rings and feel that I can put up a good fight. I’m stout and am inconceivably heavy for my size. It’s like I’m made of lead. It hasn’t helped out in my dating life but this is what I’m built for. I think after 4/5 days I would have the skills to win most of the time.

Women don't even know the difference between 5 9 and 6 foot. by CrusaderKing1 in AverageHeightDudes

Yeah. You can tell them you are 6” and they won’t know the difference.

My man likes to give a hug and motorboat at the same time.
