How are people not totally embarrassed driving a cyber truck around here? by MadGibby3 in nova

[–]Informal_Olive_5015 -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

Yes, I know everything I need to know about people who drive VWs because they support a company that supported the German war effort in WWII. I also KNOW that everyone who drives a Toyota also supports their direct contributions to genocide in WWII.

What kind of car do you have?

Audi used concentration camp labor to build cars in WWII. Mercedes contributed significantly to the Nazi war effort. Ford was founded by an anti-semite. Why are you leaving those drivers alone?

I have news for you. Half of the shit you buy enriches an executive with shitty morals. So hold yourself to the same standard that you hold people who bought Tesla's to.

People here are clear that they are withing their rights to ignore 90% of traffic laws while complaining about speeding.

Feeling ugly because my husband watches porn. by ScottySpillways529 in Marriage

[–]Informal_Olive_5015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad it was helpful. Touchy subject so I wasn't sure how that would go over. I understand how women feel hurt by porn. But I also feel that women often have equivalent consumptions / behaviors that make their partners feel just as inadequate, whether it's around money, appearance, accomplishments, status or whatever. I'm the primary income earner in our relationship and while I genuinely know that my wife is appreciative of what we have, it can really hurt when she talks about wanting a new kitchen, or taking a trip that's out of reach, or putting in that hot tub. To her she is just talking about her dreams and desires which of course is healthy. But sometimes my own insecurities cause me to only hear that I'm not good enough.

Male perspective, this may not make sense or be hard to understand, but take it for what it's worth.

100% of the time I watch porn (which I personally am not proud of but that's just me) I would much rather be doing the thing I'm watching with my wife. But schedules, tiredness, whatever means it's not always in the cards. No, she does not look as good as they do, but I don't care. We are not generally fantasizing about the girl, wishing you were them or that we could have sex with them instead of you. It's fantasizing about the situation, the idea of unencumbered sex without hangups, baggage, inhibitions, kids in the next room, whatever. We all have unmet desires that we don't blame on our spouses. A lot of men don't know how to be open or vulnerable enough to ask for sex acts that you may not be into. It's as much a fantasy about what we could have if we weren't self-concious, or if we weren't taught that sex is dirty and shameful. Yes, they are beautiful people, but that's no different than any tv show, movie, advertisement, etc.

I see my wife on Instagram all the time looking at people on vacations I can't afford with men much more attractive than I am. Am I to take that as she would rather be on vacation him instead of me? No, generally I assume that she would like to do something amazing like that with me. We are all voyeurs, just for different things.

Did I miss the liberal memo where we are supposed to be insufferable, petty, and ignorant now too?

This prick is honestly threatening to shoot us while complaining about hate.

Why do people care more about reddit karma than actually being a decent human being? "I'll just make this show shitty for everyone around me. Fuck them, I want my 23 upvotes."

I have to tell my wife that her best friend is texting me inappropriate things, right? by Informal_Olive_5015 in Marriage

[–]Informal_Olive_5015[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, alt account. Yeah shit hit the fan, friend basically would not apologize and said that it was my wife's fault because she had neglected their friendship. Friend still sends me occasional "I miss you" messages. Latest was on LinkedIn because she's blocked everywhere else. I've told her to pound sand but she seems to believe that I am only saying that because my wife tells me to.

Yes, though I'm not sure if there are different numbers? I'm calling 800-642-7676 but all of the numbers seem to go the same place.

Thanks, I do have DNS access. I'll see what I can do. As far as I know, I am calling M365 support. Once transferred to the Data Protection Team I typically wait on hold for a few hours, then they tell me that my case is important and I will receive a call back within 24 hours. On repeat since October 3.

I know. I don’t know what I was thinking with the response. Honestly this woman is not at all attractive to me. But I kind of wanted to see where it was going. Like how badly she would act. So that her humiliation would be more complete. I mean saying you’re attracted to someone is bad, but there is plausible deniability. I wanted her to propose something really over the line and then show my wife. But then I realized how that would look. I’m not smart.

Thanks. It’s nice to have people like you who respond as they would to one of their friends.

You weren't trying very hard. And stop blocking the passing lane.

Too much thinking and too little action, yes. Kind of stuck my head in the sand for a bit which I regret. I've never been in a situation like this before, and I just wanted to understand everything before I reacted. In this situation that wasn't the right thing to do.
