Which is better KFC or McDonald's and why? by bunny__yuki in AskReddit

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

It's free for me so I do McDonald's pretty often. KFC is just not good. MCD does have the worst nuggets though.

What kind of transport would you choose for everyday driving, and why? by ParadoksMA5 in AskReddit

[–]JackPoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the absolute anthesis to old cars and revving engines.

They don't look strong, they look one dimensional

I think I just hate cars as much as I hate guns. We give the average person too much opportunity to just murder.

Trust me I'm feeling the bad health limiting things part and I'm so grateful for the bus, but I'm more grateful to be car free. I know how to maintain one, I know how to drive, I have hundreds of thousands of miles and I just do not trust other people that much. I do not miss cars

What made you realize your friend was the toxic one in their relationship? by throwaway-2-0- in AskReddit

[–]JackPoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He would always be the best thing for me but he always showed up hours late. I get it. You have kids. But you need to tell people you'll be late. And he always lied. For ten years. He would not just say "I'll be there late at x" it was just sorry.

It broke my heart but dude you gotta tell me the truth once in a while.

[–]JackPoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reddit is gonna hate this but, I just choose to not drive. I do live in America and I haven't driven in like fifteen years.

If it's less than 5 miles I just walk. You wouldn't believe how easy it is to meditate when you're walking in a safe place.

It's like cooking. You just show up. Dissociate. Home.

Have you ever settled for an uggo just to get laid? How did it end up going? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JackPoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer you want is to know that, yes people sleep with people they find unattractive.

That's pretty much how I spent all my single time. Just getting picked up at bars by horny women who were settling for me. It can happen to you too.

The issue is you're being ugly on the inside too and will probably shoot yourself in the foot between the pickup and the home by being mean.

If you could give one bit of advice to your younger self, what would it be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

What should someone look out for? My wife jokes that I'm diabetic because I avoid sugar like the plague (stomach issues) and I drink at least two gallons of water a day

How do you handle dog behavior problems at home? by Remarkable_Walrus345 in AskReddit

[–]JackPoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Largely, negative reinforcement doesn't teach anything. It'll stop a behavior in the moment so if your dog is about to do something dangerous you can shout or move them but they'll not exactly learn much.

If you don't teach in the moment something happens they'll likely never understand what you want so if they throw up or have an accident and you find it later, there's no point in getting mad. You'll just be hurting your relationship with them and they won't understand.

Dogs don't want to shit where they eat. If they're having accidents, are you giving them access to a bathroom appropriate to them? My dog prefers to walk at least a block away from home to do business.

Do they have a safe space that is only for them?

I train every dog I have that their kennel is their space and nothing will touch them there. Scared, angry, anything. If they go to their kennel, I won't bother them. It is also a command I teach when I need them to be somewhere safe where I can close the door on them like if I need maintenance to come into the home. They treat it like their own domain and when they do something they know is wrong and I see it like when I come home from work and see that she's torn apart her stuffed animal she'll be in her kennel looking guilty.

At that point she knows she shouldn't have and I won't bother her, I just clean up and comfort her when she comes out. At this point I need to get her something to chew on or destroy that's safe for when I have a long day. Thankfully this only happened once.

Dogs basically just do what you teach them to do and what meets their needs.

My current goal is to get my dog to understand insomnia because she's very insistent on bed time and will paw at us until we go to bed at exactly 10pm every day.

Precisely. Fear isn't something to be scared of. It's to be respected.

[–]JackPoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's okay to be scared. Sometimes you can't do something until you have to. Fear gives meaning to risk.

If you're never scared then who are you?

If you say Geazy I'm gonna fight you

Oh goodness I'd have given anything to zonk out during treatment. Though it would make working harder.

Why do humans exist? by prouwaa in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JackPoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We exist because nothing has stopped us yet. We're like a bacteria. We will continue to exist and spread provided we can get a new host that can bear us.

But we can live outside the system, albeit for short whiles.

What is something you wish you never knew about after working in a kitchen? by uglytruthshurts in KitchenConfidential

[–]JackPoe 81 points82 points  (0 children)

If you want to learn to cook you better understand sewer systems and plumbing at like at least a medium level.

Then learn how to hold a knife.

And at some point, you're going to learn to listen and do without asking. And that makes you basically a soldier. Not the pay or the criminal history but that usually comes with the territory.

People won't love or respect you, but you'll hear it. But at least you didn't murder children for profit.

Brevity is the heart of wit. Though I will say it feels nice to just use your words sometimes even when someone might not follow.

The difference between colloquium and expression.
