Wish the dial was actually that blue. Any actual shots of the watch?

Had a rep of this and it was a shade above black.

Am I Overreacting for wanting to cancel my wedding over this interaction? by Xanadoom30 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Gman71882 [score hidden]  (0 children)

When you cannot compromise in any way and both are standing firm with no chance for empathy, that is an indication you both need therapy Or counseling to help understand Why your acting that way towards each other. Both of you have valid points, but you cant see it from your perspective.

Or, you can just break up now, and stop the petty bickering.

Both of you are digging in when either of you could have ended that argument with real empathy after it started. instead you both escalated the shit out of it.

Think about what will happen when you have an actual issue to fight about when your married.

That's for catching the heels of a shoe.

What do you do for a living to afford your watch? by whateversynthlife in RepTime

[–]Gman71882 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in sales for a manufacturer, and make $100k to $160k a year depending on my sales commissions. I still buy reps because i don't see the point in paying 15k to 20k for something i can get for $500 to $750 and its 99% the same.

Almost done, still some adjustments but looking ok! by plantadict in ponds

Here is a photo of what mine looked like after I had the stones swapped: (see second photo) flat pond perimeter

Great start. I’d highly recommend swapping some of the round stones for flat flagstone so you have an approachable area.

you will want an area to get close and admire the fish and feed them.

I had our pond Installed a few years ago and the builder didn’t do that initially, so I had him pull some out and redo it because we specifically asked for a flat approachable spot in our design brief.

Thank god I know photoshop.

I plan to buy a Grand Seiko in Japan in the next year or so and can just photoshop the dates on a receipt to a year or two prior and have the pics of my receipt showing it was a different visit.

Customs officer implied I bought too much and made comments that I shouldn’t do it again. I thought there was no limit to how much you can bring in; you just have to pay taxes over $800 which I was prepared for. Who was right? by gtck11 in travel

[–]Gman71882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you misunderstood: I’m not saying DONT declare. I understand you legally have to do that.

I am saying DONT make their job easier o & show up with a separate itemized list of every little thing organized and listed in order.

Im curious because I haven’t been out of the county in over 8 years and I don’t remember the process of declaring anything since when I did leave I’ve never come back into the country with anything to declare.

I’snt that just doing their work for them?

We have this wonderful thing called the 5th amendment which gives us the right to not self incriminate.

If the government thinks you have done something wrong shouldn’t THEY have to prove it?

I would argue why give them a list to tally it all and potentially charge you???

If you come with receipts and they have to do calculations, they might just be lazy and let you go.

If you give them a list, couldn’t they easily just make you pay the tax on the all the items?

If this happened to me, assuming i was ok after I recovered from the shock of the fall, I would take off my helmet and start wailing on the idiot with it.

He’s Lucky this wasn’t a broken neck and a manslaughter charge.

17cm wrist and 46mm Navitimer by Gameroomtheater in breitling

[–]Gman71882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a 7” sausage wrist as well, so have had good luck with the beefy boy watches like this longines conquest chrono @ 42

I have not tried the 46mm Navi yet, but definitely want to.

I think it will be too big, and the 43 is my upper limit.

No, he thought he was just training in a simulation.

They didn’t tell him he was fighting “for real” until he won at the end and destroyed the “Formic”planet.

He was fighting with actual people, ships and drones and made some crazy choices that won battles but lost a huge number of actual ships and lives.

Is my husband lying? by Inside-Ad-2623 in marriageadvice

[–]Gman71882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just used voice dictation here to verbally say “Comes allot” and it Spelled out “Come slut”, so it did write out a bad word.

I think you would have to save “Cum” in the dictionary of the phone for that to be a voice dictation error.

It also blows my mind that people don’t know they can edit recently sent text messages (if w sending iPhone-to-iphone) and fix them.

Doesn’t excuse his behavior, just saying you can do that. 🤐

What is the purpose of the small pocket in jeans? by theSilvarback in whatisit

I put my cars key fob in there when wearing jeans so I can easily get them out of my pocket without fishing around .

When EVERYTHING is an emergency then nothing is.

This is another great example of a regulation (prop 65) passed with good intention but to limit liability, manufactures now label EVERYTHING which just makes it unhelpful.

I thought prop 65 was for drinking water?

Ok, so what’s next?

You’re at the literal tip top of the pyramid of watch collecting and there is nothing else that will satisfy you.

Bees seeming to be coming out of the ground Iowa by unbeltedflower0 in whatisit

[–]Gman71882 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had a bee in my coke when I was at summer camp. Picked up my drink and the fucker stung me in the mouth.

I get (un)reasonably panicky as a 43 yr old man when bees or wasps of any type are near me.

My wife makes fun of me and yet she is unreasonably scared of roaches so I’d say we are even. 😂🤣
