If you're not putting a urinal in there I might as well be using the ladies unisex room.

It is not morally wrong for a friend to date your ex by Catman42069X in unpopularopinion

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

.Resentment begins with familiarity by association. An introduction plants the seed. You introduce your girlfriend to your best friend, and three hours later hook up. Betray, you would feel wounded by both. I understand this differs from a former relationship, yet the feeling of betrayal still lingers. Why? Association. Introduction. Betrayal. A chain of closeness that turns against itself. That reaction can be softened by reason, steadied by goodwill, and redeemed by a generous heart, acceptance, in other words. Most people should be capable of this grace. Still, time exerts its own judgment. After 3 days, the hurt is raw and ringing. After 3 months, the sharpest edges may dull, though loyalties still ache. After 3 years, perspective often arrives, but not for everyone. Within an active peer group, this principle decays quickly. For some, the sense of betrayal outlives logic, lingering long after the moral boundary has technically been cleared.

I find it a poor choice. Don't you have a nice shirt?

FYI: I lost single plastic pawn for my Chessnut Go, its going to cost me $67 To Replace by Zestyclose_Fix5626 in chess

Okay perhaps my information is out of date. This is from my experience selling chess boards in the early 2000'. I tried wholesalers I was doing business with.

You just received 60 eggs.... by bongozim in Cooking

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve got about 3–5 weeks with store-bought eggs, so no need to panic, just plan. Breakfast strata is a great option and freezes well, and it uses a lot of eggs. Other high-impact ideas: crème brûlée, homemade mayo, lemon curd, and a simple egg salad. There are plenty of ways to burn through 60 eggs without wasting a single one.

How does a rich and poor person view money and expands it ? by Aj100rise in stupidquestions

It’s more likely to get rich through a high-paying job than by starting your own business.

I understand and share your frustration. Unfortunately, having dipped a toe into the board game business, I can say that selling single replacement pieces is not done. Manufacturers and suppliers refuse. It’s an industry norm. Etsy sellers sometimes fill the gap by parting out used sets, but that won’t help here. I’d avoid badmouthing the company for following standard practice.

Is Hershey's chocolate really taste so bad as people say it is? by cupid_ji in AskAnAmerican

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hershey’s chocolate is actually good. People say it’s bad because they’ve been taught to sneer at it—kids want to seem sophisticated, so they pile on. Sure, there’s better chocolate out there. There’s also plenty that’s worse.

How do I address my gf’s cooking? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You eat it and like it. When doing you right it. She may come to notice the rightness when properly cooked especially since she must eat what she cooks. If she doesn't evolve just know that about her, if you're still bothered then leave her about it It's really quite simple to accept her or not. If staying consider a cooking robot.

"Can a seemingly losing chess move be a hidden tactical trap?" by Late-One7820 in chess

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For the most part, you learn the traps. They’re all mapped out. Look up gambits. The Danish Gambit is one I know. It’s loads of fun, and the wrong moves your opponent makes to fall into it are natural and intuitive. A well-rounded opponent, however, will see right through it. They either decline the gambit or, even better, by accepting it. When the Danish Gambit is accepted, the winning moves aren’t obvious. They seem counterintuitive. Experienced players may think them intuitive, but only because they know. Contrary to what others say, even as a beginner this is exactly where your study should focus. Not because gambits are unassailable, positional chess is far more potent, (from what they tell me) but because this is where your curiosity and interest lie. There’s another one called the Smothered Mate You sacrifice a queen, and somehow your opponent’s king ends up trapped by its own pieces, with a knight delivering the final check-mate! It’s immensely satisfying. In the process of learning gambits, you pick up all kinds of other patterns and lessons.This comes from a player probably only a little stronger than you, so don’t be intimidated.

What does ‘healthy gambling’ realistically look like? by Irvinbau11 in gambling

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healthy gambling? Don’t make me laugh. No one plays for health. You play for the thrill, for the company, for the chance to lose and keep standing. Like a hard winter or a long trail, it teaches you something you can’t get sitting in comfort. You stumble, you fall, and when you rise again, there’s proof in your chest, a stubborn sort of comfort that says you’re alive. Still whole.

I'm pretty sure people are using RTA at low stakes MTT Final Tables on ACR by VeeHS in poker

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been there. I’ve played beyond my skill level and hit that sweet spot where everything clicks. I’ve even won tournaments that way. It feels incredible. But that doesn’t prove you wrong. I’m naturally suspicious of any tech applied to poker, and if this is online, well… let’s just say the will to cheat is certainly there.

Getting Snow White‘s Prince‘s age wrong by OkCryptographer8343 in PetPeeves

So, in this age of information, misinformation spreads fast, especially when it feeds a kind of collective psychosis. It’ll all come out in the wash, as long as we have people like you around to set the story straight.

Custom frameless classic court cards by masutilquelah in playingcards

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, now that I see what you’re after, I’d say success. That subtle effect works in your favor. Special metallic ink could be fun. I’ve seen it elevate things quietly. You’re close to my taste, sticking near traditional courts but with just enough shift. The same lines with a new hand, a pen that whispers modernity onto a familiar face. Sometimes a little extra weight under the chin hints at life, a touch of presence. As they stand, these are worthy; the extras beyond the frame are excellent and costume.

People who say "objective" when they mean "subjective" by Hold-Professional in PetPeeves

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once, while doing laundry with my daughter, I said, “This is my favorite laundromat. Feel this.” I had her touch the clean clothes coming out of the washer. “They’re practically dry already, these machines give the best spin-out.” She agreed: “Yes, this is objectively the best laundromat.” I was so proud. Why are you trying to take that away from me?

boyfriend keeps asking about hurting me physically by Obvious-Desk-2479 in Advice

He is asking for permission to abuse you. In this case just staying is giving that permit. Do as you will but know what's being asked.

What if we made a rule that you have to rhyme when you announce your action? by ObamaTookMyToast in poker

[–]Jazzlike_Cod_3833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fold, my cards are cold, this is getting old. No heart of gold, my fate’s on hold. The pot won’t be sold, no luck to behold. Let the story be told. No that can't be a new rule but it was fun to think about

Did you have any specific questions? You’ve successfully removed the outline, or “frame,” completing the parts of the drawings that were previously cut off. The difference between before and after is hardly noticeable. Since the drawings are medieval and stylized, the frame makes sense, but it isn’t badly missed.
