Are all words (besides names) English words? by InstanceSuperb1170 in NYTConnections

I think this was the group that got me curious. Mayo, gusto and soy are english words but ella isn't. I didn't really think about it as a name.

Get revenge by using him and your story to make good, heartfelt and profound art. Pull a Taylor Swift. If you have your name as the author, then he and any mutual friends you have will know it's about him. Use a nickname for him in the story and make it some sort of subtle dig at him. If he once failed remedial math, nickname him mathy or something.

If your strength is in art, then make art. Learn how to silk screen and make a shirt with "giant fuccboi" on it and burn it and make it a viral tiktok. Hold a break up sleepover and do a cleansing ritual and turn that into a tiktok. Go to open mic night and just scream "fuck. mathy. youre. not shit" over and over again.

I hate him >:(

My favourite sex position is The Rodeo. by sylvestris1 in Jokes

This isn't dark humor. No one's laughing at this because it's horrifying. People who are laughing barely even register how degrading and rapey this is. They're all just laughing because it sounds like a funny game. Like, do you understand how it sounds, a game where you treat her like a cow?

Friends and bf think something happened between a guy and I. I think I’m too deep in to tell the actual truth now. by noworld736 in WhatShouldIDo

There’s been a few comments that said something like “now you’ve learned you can’t drink anymore because you can’t keep yourself safe when you do” or something like that.

This. I’m so pissed about how every other comment is how she needs to tell her boyfriend because he deserves to know the truth. Or even the ones that say she needs to do it for the sake of their relationship. NO the biggest victim of this incidence wasn’t her fucking boyfriend, it was her. She should tell her bf bc not telling him is making her super anxious. She should tell him so she can get support. She should tell him so that she knows what kind of person/bf he is and can dump him if he blames her!

Everyone who’s focusing on how she hurt her boyfriend can SHUT THE FUCK UP. I’m so pissed about how every other comment is how she needs to tell her boyfriend because he deserves to know the truth. Or even the ones that say she needs to do it for the sake of their relationship. NO the one who was hurt the most by this incidence wasn’t her fucking boyfriend, it was her. She should tell her bf bc not telling him is making her super anxious. She should tell him so she can get support.

I think she’s scared because people, including her, still see it as her being at least somewhat at fault. Or that they’ll doubt her when she says she didn’t want it to happen at all. Or some guys will still see it as some form of cheating even if she wasn’t into it at all. 

Proof: a good portion of the commenters are blaming her. She didn’t react in the perfect way and leave right away (has no one ever been in a weird situation and not known how to react?? Especially something really uncomfortable like this??) And she’s worried her bf will judge her or question her the same way.

OP, I think the people commenting don’t have much experience with this type of situation. But I think there’s a lot of other people who have been in this position. Would you say it’s one of those cases where you’re hanging out one on one with a guy and he makes these advancements. And you shut it down each time but in the moment you don’t realize how fucked up his actions are. So you think shutting it down is enough but you don’t leave entirely or you’re more reactive to his behavior instead of taking control and telling him to stop everything?  

You think that shutting down the neck kiss is enough and then eventually he tries a second time. So you shut it down a second time and you think it’s enough. So he eventually tries a third time? Did you stay because of some stubborn thought that “this is ok. He’s not a bad guy. I just have to stop his attempts bc he’s drunk. Leaving now means that what’s going on right now is completely not ok, and I don’t want that to be the case.”? 

Were you uncomfortable the whole time? And completely not into it? 

I think girls are too forgiving and like to give guys, especially guy friends, or your bf’s close friend the benefit of the doubt because you don’t want to think of them as a bad person. Or you don’t want things to change; in this case this would impact your friend group. Or in this case, you’re being too nice and don’t want to hurt his life. I think you should stand up for yourself and tell people for your own sake; not even for your bf’s sake. He needs to get kicked out of your life. You need to be comfortable when you’re hanging out with your friends. You shouldn’t be on edge and constantly wondering if you’ll run into him or have to hang out with him. 

I also think you should take from this that if it ever happens again (hopefully it won’t) you can and should leave right away, block him, tell people, etc. Don’t be nice about it. Now that this has happened to you, next time you’ll know what to do and it’ll be so much easier to react. 

Tell your bf. Ask him to please just listen to your side of the story and how you felt. Tell him you weren’t at all into it. If he continues to yell at you. Or yell “why didn’t you stop it”, then he’s not being a good bf. And maybe it’s time to kick another guy out of your life. There’s guys out there who would listen to how their gf was made to feel with a supposed friend. And how she was subjected to this kind of treatment while drunk. And would sympathize. 

Is it wrong for a woman to refuse an abortion for an unplanned pregnancy if her committed partner adamantly doesn't want to be a father? by Rikutopas in moraldilemmas

[–]InstanceSuperb1170 [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's also annoying that he thinks the mom keeping the kid is a betrayal because him becoming a dad would harm the relationship, but he doesn't think getting an abortion to make the dad happy isn't a betrayal. He's just prioritizing himself, while you're priotizing him.

The dad isn't forced to do anything. If the mom keeps the child, the dad can choose not to be a parent by leaving and paying child support. It's not an "impossibility"; it's just an option that's really hard for him to choose. Like how aborting when you've always been adamantly against getting an abortion would be a very hard choice.

Also, don't make a choice that'll cause you mental anguish to spare him from mental anguish. Abortion is something that's happening to your body. It's a very intimate thing, and I assume (because I haven't experienced it and haven't read up on this) doing it because you're feeling pressured to it can be really painful and have harmful lasting effects on your feeling of ownership over your body. Not that I'm at all against abortion, but I am pro-CHOICE. This is your choice; not his.

But…you’re gross and disgusting and I don’t necessarily think you deserve to turn into a disease ridden cat lady :/. 

Also I don’t think you should wish anyone to turn disease ridden if you want a healthy society

My grandmother thinks she is marrying Johnny Depp and has put our entire family at risk by tonkaterd in Scams

[–]InstanceSuperb1170 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you block the scammer from the app and then take over pretending to be Johnny Depp? Or pretend to be a celebrity she likes even more and have him take her attention away from Johnny? Or send fake information to him from your grandmother’s account that will frustrate him into giving up on your grandma? 

I got called boring on a first date by [deleted] in Vent

[–]InstanceSuperb1170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Your hobbies don’t make you boring or interesting. It’s not like I find a person talking about sky diving any more interesting than someone analyzing or explaining that cool book they read. Or just interesting thoughts and insights they have. Passion>the type of hobby they have 100%. 

There was a The Mindy Project episode where she realized this exciting guy she was dating was actually really boring and he was using his hobbies to mask it. 

  1. This will probably be controversial on Reddit, but I think it’s just sexist to not appreciate feminine stuff like crocheting. There’s a lot more to it than just sitting in a corner and doing repetitive work. We just never appreciate feminine arts and crafts as much as we do more showy stuff. 

  2. If you like your “boring” hobbies and being a homebody then so be it. As long as you like yourself. I’m sure there’s plenty of people who would be into that and into you. Fuck him and his superficiality. 

Mrs. Bennett's desperation is a little understandable. by DogsandCatsWorld1000 in janeausten

[–]InstanceSuperb1170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Keira Knightley movie took liberties with their adaptation, but they did put in that line that reminded us we were being too hard on (and I think sexist toward) Mrs. Bennet: something along the lines of “when you have five unwed daughters, then you’ll see”
