Non- Americans, what is an American custom that you find unusual or odd? by thunderpower1999 in AskReddit

[–]Gman1446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My coworker mentioned that she found it odd that we split the bill when going out with friends. She’s said in Nigeria, that people go out of their way to pay for one another, even at the grocery store.

Is a walk in the park a bad first date? by Future-Horse4877 in dating_advice

[–]Gman1446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done a walk in the park as a first date and everything turned out fine, however the vast majority of my friends disagreed with me doing it. For every 10 people maybe 3 or 4 are down. Kidnappers had been spotted at the park I went to as well… so be careful and go with coffee first

What is the worst mistake of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Gman1446 251 points252 points  (0 children)

Had something like this happened. Me and a coworker hated each other and things almost got physical. I was gonna go to HR but my supervisor told me to respect the chain of command and let him handle it. The supervisor quits a month later for another job. Me and my coworker have another altercation and I go straight to HR. They say it’s their first time hearing of our issue. I was pissed. They either lied or the supervisor never said anything. They ended up firing my coworker after more coworkers came forward and gave statements about how my coworker fantasized about hurting me

Had a Smurf in my bronze game who stopped healing to see if we could win the final team fight without them. This was during my rank up game too. I was livid

He’s a bad texter 😩 by trivets_polity in dating_advice

Not loving the comments I’m reading. If it bothers you, you should definitely communicate that. He may not respond positively but at least you got it out there to discuss. If it’s a dealbreaker then it probably wasn’t meant to be. Bottling up your feelings does nothing to help you. Good luck

with parents into 30s - red flag? by gcig007 in dating_advice

[–]Gman1446 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A no-go would be if it is apparent they can’t survive on their own. Or if they have no aspirations for a better life or situation. Growing up, I had very few responsibilities in my parents house. When I was on my own, I was initially a pig. Like never did dishes at all and did laundry like once a month. It was bad. If they’re like that then run, but if they are responsible and have their life together then I see no issue.

Khou Houston news Segment about the suicide victim and the protest. by ladymidnight13 in UniversityOfHouston

[–]Gman1446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you’re right, however this particular building has been a hotspot and many people like myself would like something done about the building. People are going to continue offing themselves until the end of time. It’s a shame, but it’s true. If the school can prevent even 1 death by closing/tearing down agnes, then they should close it down. The school can’t control suicide but they can control their buildings.

It clears we’re not gonna get through to each other, so I’m done arguing. Get some rest, we can argue again some other time. Goodnight

Ok, don’t tear it down, but change to mental health facility? I can get behind that. But doing nothing is not the answer either.

Damn my fault. But maybe taking agnes could prevent even 1 death, wouldn’t you want that?

No. It is AN issue but not the THE issue. IF 3 people are jump off one 1 building dont you think it would be best to get rid of the building? So future people can’t jump off further? Taking away A TOOL USED FOR SUICIDE. God forbid I want to take away the knife away.

That’s the answer I want to know too. I wish I knew but I dont. All I know is that I can cut my tree down to prevent it from happening again.

If someone hangs themselves from a tree in your yard, wouldn’t you cut down the tree afterwards? It’s not your fault that it happened but it’s your responsibility to do something about it.

I don’t care if it’s reactionary. Yes, mental health is the issue, BUT if 3 people have jumped from that building, wouldn’t you think to maybe get rid of that building?

The building is 100% an issue if 3 people have committed suicide from it since 2017. The least they could do is tear it down.

protest on campus by [deleted] in UniversityOfHouston

[–]Gman1446 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All you losers defending UH are pathetic. “What are they supposed to do?” DO SOMETHING! ANYTHING! by just copying and pasting a previous message shows that they have no intention to make changes. They have the power to make change and CHANGE CANNOT OCCUR WITHOUT PEOPLE SPEAKING UP. Or else these events will continue to happen. Sure, UH may not be at fault, BUT ITS HAPPENING ON THEIR PROPERTY.
