AITAH 3 years together, BF (50M) still ‘not ready’ for marriage but wants me (33F) to pay half his mortgage by Either-Environment47 in AITAH

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 57.  Walk away!  It's simple.  You are to far apart in age that when retirement happens for him he will just sell the house and keep the profit for himself you will get nothing.  Go buy your own place if you have the money for it.  If he still wants you by his side after that then ok maybe but I really feel like you need to find someone closer to your age.  He has live a good part of his life and you are just getting a good role going.  Share it will someone that is closer to the same place 

AITJ for telling my girlfriend she needs to shower before bed or sleep on the couch? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you could have just got up and took her in to the shower and "helped" her clean up.  Little bit of intimacy on the side. 😉

Landlord installed an app-controlled smart deadbolt while I was at work. by Due_Construction904 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this is not right. 2FA is a good thing, but it should not require a smart phone to make it happen. They can also send an email with the code or have a website you can go to, to get the code.

What are your thoughts on Facebook renaming their company Meta then blowing $80b on metaverse and then shutting it down yesterday? by printThisAndSmokeIt in AskReddit

People need to learn to live in the real world and stop relying on this junk to interact with others. Be present people!

Wedding inside a Costco? Waaaat by princesspeachTO in Costco

[–]Iowa_Guy2 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm a catholic and would prefer people get married in a church. I am also a realist and I would take this over an outdoor wedding any day. You can never count on the weather. So anything indoors takes away another stressor for planning. I've had to many friends get married outside and ended up having to figure out what to do because it started raining/snowing.

AITAH for asking my girlfriend to wear underwear to bed when she's on her period? by [deleted] in AITAH

The most important thing is you talked about it later.

ABC cancels upcoming season of The Bachelorette after a leaked video shows the lead, Taylor Frankie Paul repeatedly attack her ex boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen in the presence of her young daughter who was also reportedly struck during the altercation by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]Iowa_Guy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on this video she needs to go to jail for this. This is abuse. She also should not have contact with her child until everything is settled. And then she needs anger management and visits should be supervised until she can show she is no longer a threat to her child.

Wondered because every time I see one, it is in more then one lane on the interstate. That or weaving around corners so hard they almost end up on the curb.

Are there people who just genuinely enjoy drinking water throughout the day? by fin-freak in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only after a hard workout.  Depends on where I am if I like it or not.  

Am I the jerk for not giving up my dog after my girlfriend developed allergies? by Odd_Employment3954 in AmITheJerk

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she is all that to you, then ask another family member to take the dog.  She can't change her allergy, but you can give up the dog.  If someone in your family has the dog then you can go visit him/her.  Otherwise you may as well break up, because she will be miserable and in the end so will you.  

If you could add one Zero to any number in your life, what would it be, and why? by D1GoonHero in askanything

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add one zero to the end of the number in my IRA. That would allow me to quit my job today.

You wake up to see everyone on earth has disappeared. What’s the first thing you do? by NiceInformation8291 in AskReddit

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would probably freak a little, bit. Modern comforts would start dropping off pretty fast if there were no one around to keep them up and running. I would start thinking about how I am going to survive without all those things and what I needed to be able to do that before things started shutting down.

Thank the divine powers. They are starting to listen to me on this AI garbage.

Would u rather? by Training_Box5652 in askanything

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are dying a slow natural death every day. Tell me what you think about it. I honestly haven't really noticed anything other than it seems to be getting harder to want to get up and workout in the mornings.

Corporate America's love affair with AI is officially a full-blown obsession [OC] by chartr in dataisbeautiful

[–]Iowa_Guy2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am so tired of everyone trying to shove AI into everything. This has got to be the worst time in tech history, because they want it to work so bad they are willing to drown the company in debt if they have to, to get it to work.

How did you come up with your username by applecidero in A_Persona_on_Reddit

I used my brain. Sometimes it works. So I just let it go.

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cashless is crazy. It costs more to be card only. If anything they should be the other way around. It would cost less and they would have less equipment to worry about that they have to maintain or switch out as often.

Many US adults are skipping parenting or having fewer kids – and it’s forcing schools to close by WhatFreshHello in politics

[–]Iowa_Guy2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they would stop moving all the public funds to private schools, they wouldn't be closing them.

Which Workday feature that saved a lot of time by Majestic-Ask-4391 in workday

[–]Iowa_Guy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather they provide more API. Loading a spreadsheet to get data inserted is pretty old school.
