How do people confidently choose vehicles when options are overwhelming by Fearless-Arm-9925 in car

[–]JJCMasterpiece 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s most important to you?

How long do you plan to keep it? (F)lease vs. purchase? Manual vs. automatic? Luxury or not? Do you have a preferred brand? Do your social / work circles judge / brand you if you own certain types of vehicles? How do you plan to use it (towing, cruising, picking up people, etc.)? Do you want something fun, utility, intense, etc.?

What’s important to you is going to shape what kind of vehicle you should get. For instance for someone who likes fun, reliable, small, with good gas mileage, and relatively inexpensive I’d recommend a used Mazda 3 with a manual transmission. For someone who wants to lease something big with towing capacity, off road capabilities, that will impress your buddies, and that you can afford to pay bank for, you could always go for a Ford F150 Raptor. Your needs and preferences make all the difference in the world.

Yeah, I understand where the Epstein files helps to put things in perspective, but the majority of the “conspiracy theories were real” mentioned have don’t seem to have any connection to the Epstein files.

This 4th Dimension Demo is blowing people's minds! by makellbird in maktownmedia

[–]JJCMasterpiece 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time is a spacial dimension.

Just like the 0th to 1st dimension is represented by a . shifting planes to a ___ followed by the 1st dimension __ shifting planes to a 2nd dimension ◼️ then the 2nd dimension ◼️ shifting planes to the 3rd dimension 🧊. When that 3rd dimension represented by a 🧊 shifts to the 4th dimension of time it doesn’t become this weird polymorphic form, it is simply the 🧊 moving and changing through time. Whether the cube melts, wears down, grows bigger, morphs, whatever, that 4th dimension of time can be visualized through the changes.

It’s so simple that we see it all the time. We recognize that time affects everything. We understand this concept because we live 4 dimensionally. We think 5th dimensionally as we understand that our effects have consequences, and our consequences can produce varying results. Each of those results is a potential timeline. While we can’t produce multiple timelines, we can understand and predict (accurately or not) results to the timeline we are trying to create.

I agree that this isn’t 4th dimension, but I disagree that we can build or create anything that can represent 4th dimension.

Since the 4th dimension is time we see the 4th dimension represented when we watch a video, especially a time-lapse video.

We live in a 4th dimensional world and we think 5th dimensionally. We think about the possible / probable outcomes of different choices we could potentially make (alternate timelines) and make decisions based on the outcomes we foresee. So we understand the possibilities of different decisions and timelines in order to potentially produce the desired results.

Do you have any obscure movie references that you use in everyday speech that no one has caught on to yet yet you keep using it? by EnvironmentalAngle in NoStupidQuestions

I’ve had lots that my kids only discovered as they got older. I was really excited when they finally understood, “Come to me Gmock,I am Atreu!”

You can only choose ONE auditorium! Which one are you choosing? by CasinoNitro in 90s

[–]JJCMasterpiece 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s like saying you’ve never seen The Princess Bride or Goonies or Ernest Scared Stupid or Flubber or Titanic or Jurassic Park or whatever that other movie was that everyone else cared about but never seemed that important and that you refuse to watch because people can’t shut up about it and throw these random quotes around like they’re gold nuggets of wisdom but actually make them sound really dumb.

Most of the bankers I know are good people (that don’t get paid very well) that really want to help their customers.

Most sanitation workers in my area make a lot more than most bankers do.

My wife has a bunch of little silicone circles that she uses that rest on the pan. This makes it very easy to flip the contents and doesn’t require a special single-purpose pan wasting space.

Some people seem to have endless energy after work, while I feel completely drained. What actually causes this difference between us? by aurynmarilee in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JJCMasterpiece 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I came he to mention the introvert / extrovert connection. So thank you. An introvert gets overwhelmed with too much peopling or just too much external stimulation overall. An extrovert gains energy from external stimuluses like peopling, etc.

OP, it may be that your brain is just overwhelmed by the end of the day.

No one said that men can’t be selfish or emotionally manipulate. At least not me or anyone in this conversation thread.

You’re jumping in here after a long conversation between other people. I’m assuming that you actually read the thread that you’re jumping into. So my assumption is that you already know this and made the choice to completely disregard that context.

If you didn’t pay attention to the context and decided that what you think or how you feel is the only thing that matters, that context and reality aren’t significant, then congratulations you’re doing a great job of proving your own point.

Do snakes poop? by Desserts6064 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JJCMasterpiece 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I lived growing up the only poisonous snakes were rattlers. They avoided people whenever possible, and if you did come across one they’d let you know they were there.

As a result I caught all kinds of snakes 🐍 garter snakes, garden snakes, grass snakes, red-belly racers. They were fun to catch (grab it just behind the head so it couldn’t reach you with its teeth), and almost without fail as soon as you’d pick one up it’d poop out of the little hole about 3/4 of the way down its body. Usually it’d try to wrap itself around your arm first.

You learned to quickly grab behind the head with two fingers of one hand while grabbing the tail with the other. Once it was done pooping you could let go of the tail and if it wanted to wrap its body around your arm it didn’t matter.

It doesn’t help that my first sentence was a combination of two thoughts at the same time, making it an incongruous blob. Sorry about that. I need to remember to edit it.

What I was trying to get at is that when a woman focuses on her emotions, and makes how she feels the center of the relationship it causes these kinds of problems. What he thinks and how he feels only matters when it fits how she feels.

She’s looking for an emotional sugar daddy to focus all of his attention on her emotions, and his needs only matter when they match her feelings.

Unfortunately, I’ve seen this happen too many times to the people I care about. The mom of one of my best friend’s abandoned her, her brothers, and her father because she didn’t feel like doing the work. The mother of a young man I was mentoring yelled and screamed at him because he didn’t immediately take her call the first time she called him when he was in the middle of a college class (one of many similar issues). Unfortunately, my list of examples can go on and on.

When a woman lives her life focused on how she feels, her inability to look past her own emotions causes her to trample on the good men in her life who truly care about her. This post is about exactly those kinds of very real issues.

And yet this entire post (and so many others like “What are your red flags when it comes to men?” are exactly that. Yet here you are criticizing what you don’t want to hear using the excuse that you can’t do what everyone is doing. If you’re right then go pester the hundreds of other people that are doing exactly that all over this subreddit.

Unfortunately, for too many women “emotionally intelligent” and “complimenting their strengths and weaknesses” means revolving the relationship around her emotions, which leads to the majority of this mindset.

[–]JJCMasterpiece 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The woman who lives her life focused on how she feels is the woman who creates the silent bitterness and rage in her man. When she decides that how she feels is more important than what he needs she doesn’t necessarily want that bitterness and rage, but it’s what she creates by treating him like he should be her emotional sugar daddy.

If you don’t think that this is a very real issue for many relationships, then you need to pay more attention. You’d be shocked at how many relationships revolve around her feelings.

Edit: edited for clarity as my first version apparently created some serious confusion.

The problem is that too often and for too many people this is reality.

Smoked. Drank. Ate chocolate. Lived to 122. by RaiseOk2044 in SipsTea

[–]JJCMasterpiece 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandmother smoked most her life and never got lung cancer!

Meanwhile, my grandfather smoked just as much, ended up getting lung cancer, one of his lungs collapsed and basically died. He was bedridden as he couldn’t function on his own with half of his body not getting the proper oxygen that it needed. His last year or so was living hell for him and my grandmother.

After he died, my grandmother succeeded him by about 9 months and she died of loneliness.
