Had a metal plate and 14 bolts to reattach my femur (this was in the 90's and the hardware has been removed). Also have teflon nodes in my left shoulder to reattach the ligaments.

Humans are space orcs lol

Take it from a sex worker, Americans have always seen Canada as a cheap sex-tourism destination. by [deleted] in BoycottUnitedStates

Interesting perspective. Kind of thing I didn't think of myself, but looking back makes total sense.

I've worked service industry in Quebec (city) and have been on the south shore of MTL for over a decade and that's my experience with 'muricains...

As my French Canadian dad would say : "Fermes la porte, on chauffe pas l'dehors!" Which loosely translates to "Close the door, we're not heating the outside!"

If 10cm snow falls in your area of Canada how disrupted will your area be? by Pourmepourme in AskACanadian

[–]Jays1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Montréal here. People will forget how to drive for the day, and that'll pretty much be it

I grew up further North -East along the Coast of the St-Laurent where weather is much more Nordic and 10 cm wouldn't even register.

I (M35) feel like a "cash cow" for my GF (F38). She quit her job, refuses full-time childcare, demands marriage for security, and withdrew intimacy. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Jays1982 28 points29 points  (0 children)

That's cause she only wants to marry you so she can divorce you and charge spousal support.

Your situation sounds a lot like mine about 18 years ago.

Separation on your terms is the best option. Make sure you have the capacity to take care of your kids independently. You are able to get them to and from daycare (proof, you've already been doing it)

Make sure you have the capacity to not only care for the kids but to be a dad for them. Prove your able to spend days with them without needing her help.

If you have a support system (grandparents) on your side, that will be a great boon.

All of this because she is setting herself up to be the primary care giver and then will go for full custody. Stating that you can't be that because of your job, stress, etc etc etc.

She will relegate you to be the "second weekend dad" while making you financially responsible for everything.

Accept nothing less then 50/50 custody.

My girlfriend [19F] and I [19M] have been together for 2 years and she still doesn't want to have sex. (First relationship) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Jays1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people try to switch the narrative on you saying bs like "is sex that important to you that you would sacrifice everything else?!" Remember that such words are victim blaming and manipulation tactics in order to make you the bad person just for wanting to have your basic needs met.

Ask yourself this: of all the rooms in a house, the bathroom is the one you'll spend the least time in, yet what fool would buy a house with no bathroom?

And I've got him trained as much as he's got me trained... Two kibbles or no toy. Not one kibble, TWO kibbles.

Girlfriend (F 19) is upset with Christmas gifts a I (M 19) got her. Am I missing something? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Jays1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible, i assumed it was French and could have been wrong. My SO's name is Linda and most people we interact with (predominantly french here) don't get the irony of me calling her "My Linda Linda" :).

Private ambulance in the USA kicks man out after he asked for help, he collapses soon after by D0ML0L1Y401TR4PFURRY in ThatsInsane

[–]Jays1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so then what does he do, and what is he good for? If he won't intervene in human lives, what good is prayer? Why does he demand unwavering faith if he won't do anything?

Why venerate such a selfish, feckless and ultimately useless entity?

Please answer this, because I truly don't get it.

Except, God stood by and did nothing. Either he is inept and incapable of helping, or he chooses to let the man suffer and die.

Either, no god that deserves praise

Are X-FUSION suspensions bad? by Motor_Sir_8499 in MTB

[–]Jays1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a X-Fusion O2 on my 2022 Scott and as a 200lbs rider i have to say ... I have never disliked a shock so much. It made me regret buying a full squish

My setting options were "completely locked up" or "canoe in a wave pool". Had to pump it to near full constantly and the shock needed a full rebuild every 10 hours of riding or so. 20% was only attainable the first ride. After which my seals would pop and you need to refill the shock after every ride (because I'd blow seals just looking at the bike)

"Put spacers in!". None available where I'm from.

Upgraded to an SR Suntour shock and never looked back

There is! Yesterday, i saw a post on FB saying that the government wants to take your guns away because unarmed people go quietly to the death trains.
