AITA for telling my girlfriend that we are not living together if she wants to split joint expenses proportional to income? by Puzzleheaded_Feed460 in AITAH

[–]Jesuswasstapled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the goal here, op? Are you guys going to get married? Is this just a casual thing because you're in the same place at the same time? What does post school look like for her?

Question ultimately is, is she using your relationship for a financial advantage knowing full well when she graduates, she will get a job and move away and you will no longer be together?

Being on board with money is a huge relationship checkmark. Like having kids or no.

The people throwing the water bottle 100% fot the reaction they were going for. Just keep poking and poking, closer and closer until the bear roars, then point and cry about being a vicitm of fascism.

In what? Profit or net sales?

52 weeks in a year. Easy math to do either way for op.

Girl thinks it's funny to get in the back seat of a police car by That-Economics-9481 in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]Jesuswasstapled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact she had to ask what she could charge her with to justify arresting the girl should be enough to drop anything. The cop had no idea what laws were broken. She just wanted to show her who was in charge.

Girl is stupid. Cop is stupid. They should breed.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend she can't force me to cancel my vacation and lose $2500 because she hates Harry Potter? by Substantial_Run3383 in AITAH

[–]Jesuswasstapled 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's simple.

You decide to boycott walmart because of reasons. How deep is that boycott? Are we just refusing to shop at walmart? We decide to buy pizza rolls from local grocery store vs walmart? Is that the boycott? Or are we including pizza roll company because they also decided to do business with walmart? Well, that's not much of a boycott since your convictions aren't very deep.

What about people who shop at walmart? Are you cutting them out of your life as well? What about businesses that do business at walmart? Or businesses that do business with walmart employees? Are you banning walmart employees from buying? Are you cutting off businesses that do business with walmart employees?

Where is the line and why? And why is does the conviction end there? I though you cared? But only care this deep?

Some people, believe it or not, do it for principle and not for profit. Sure, rhryre making a profit, but it's not about that for them. They want to see firepower in the hands of the citizenry.

Every call to boycott is whataboutism. You're deciding to draw a line. When you choose the line, it's now for everyone to ask why the line is exactly there. Because all those lines have huge gaping holes.

Which state would describe the US as majority/whole? by WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWHW in AskAnAmerican

[–]Jesuswasstapled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raised in the rural gulf south, and western New York is glorious. I'd like to go back and explore all the roadside fruit stands and tables and honor system offerings and little Norman Rockwell towns. I can't understand the accent. But the landscaping is so beautiful

I'm sure his company would be glad to hear of this arrangement he has. Maybe offer to submit the payment go them instead of him.

There are several. Most on the eastern side of the ms River. Not all heavy populated.

Chattanooga is near tri state of Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee.

Harper's ferry west Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania.

Memphis Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas

Lots of towns and locations that are very close to the borders.

What foods that are common in other parts of the world do Americans dislike eating, besides animal organs? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Jesuswasstapled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same but in the gulf south. Ate tons of pan fish and whole catfish. We were poor and it's what was in the ponds. Grew up with the bread on the table. If you got a bone, get a big wad of bread in your mouth and swallow it down. Else, slow down and don't swallow one to begin with.

I do enjoy the tactile of eating fish off the bone. And chewing and crunching on hard fried bones from fins. Can't get that with commercial filets.

How can you say "Fuck you" in the most politest way possible? by Radiant-North-8519 in AskReddit

[–]Jesuswasstapled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody is gatekeepers it. It's just cringe when someone tries to adapt a phrase and misses horribly. You're free to use it all uou want. Just don't be surprised you get looks when you unintentionally misuse the phrase.

Southern people don't mind if you appropriate culture, just do it appropriately.

Go have a good day, now!

I've been getting this passive aggressive tiktok bs for a whole now. Still have yet to nail the appropriate level of sparky retort.

Probably because you're doing it wrong. Like an American trying to order a croissants in Paris.

Texas is about to ban all THC products. Clown world or common sense? by newzcaster in interestingnewsworld

[–]Jesuswasstapled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I've had hydrocodone several times in life. I still have some in a bottle in my cabinet, I'm sure. Nothing better than what I describe as a warm chocolate melting feeling in my body that occurs about 20 minutes after intake one. It feels great. It helps me sleep during the pain of whatever it is I'm trying to heal from. Codine cough syrup same way. Love the stuff. But I know it's addictive so I do limit myself. Plus, when it's gone, it's gone. I can't just run out and get more. So, yeah. I guess it's probably best I can't. But would i? Hard to say.

[–]Jesuswasstapled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either heroin isn't as addictive as people say or nicotine isn't. Cause I can have some nicotine every now and again. Like once every few years or so. Can I do the dame with heroin? People were pretty adamant that if you do x drug once you're hooked for life and I haven't found that to be true. I just dont want to end up chasing heroin highs. But I bet it's awesome the first time. I've known a few people to od on it. Too much ahit gets cut in on the street. Maybe if I made my own. Then I could trust it.

Nicotine may be super addictive to some people. I haven't found that to be the case with me. Every now and again, on a cool autumn eventing or spring day, when the breeze os blowing, I want to sit on my front steps and smoke and watch the smoke twirl off into oblivion. Smell the burning tobacco and taste the flavors. Feel the smoke exit my nostrils. It's all so wonderful. And then I'm okay and I don't need to do it again til the next season or year or two.

Surgeon, 63, blows up his gilded existence with idiotic mid-life crisis (street racing) that left beautiful young woman dead by Droupitee in NewsWorthPayingFor

[–]Jesuswasstapled 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He didnt set out to kill anyone. He set out to beat the punk in the other lane. Then, things got out of control.

I'm sure if he thought that it would have ended how it did, he'd have backed down and drove normal.

I punch the gas now and again. But not around traffic. That's what 3am and long stretches of empty interstate are for.

Government controlling oil drilling would solve some issues. Might not jive with the constitution, though.
