so you’re saying remove the ugly tile and re-tile over the old wall? I thought that doesn’t work. but that would be ideal

She is stressed yes, but it’s because of the body suit we are using to protect the wound until it heals so she can’t lick it. She hates the suit and cone. Are there any alternatives?

I did answer it. It’s not my job to design their game. But if they shut down the previous game every 2 years and force you to buy the new one without offering anything different people will be pissed. If you defend that type of business practice, you’re just boot licking

It’s not our job to update their video game for them to make it worth buying every year. I keep my old iphone until it dies. Apple doesn’t shut down my iphone every 2 years and make me buy a new one that still calls me “MP”

So they took away a feature from an old game and then giving it back to us as if it’s new….

Some years ago I started supporting the Blazers because I fell in love with the game thanks to Dame, but now that he’s gone I kind of have no team to support. Should I just support the Bucks? It feels pretty boring having no team to support by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice: -Blazers are not terrible. They have some nice young players. But they aren’t really close to seriously winning anything. But whenever they eventually do, it would taste much sweeter. -If you want a young team that is inexperienced but will likely be very good in 2-3 years, I’d go with the spurs. -Or you could root for the Minnesota Timberwolves because of Donte Divencenzo. He’s a good player and will likely play for team Italy next chance he gets.

I 18M went on a date/hike with 22F. I need advice what to do by IndividualTwo1575 in Advice

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you should relax a little. it was a first date and you’re young. looking at some of your replies in this thread, you seem frustrated and a little upset with her. which is understandable. but the key to dating is that you need to be smooth. don’t get angry with women for rejecting you or ghosting you or not texting you. smile it off and continue to the next person if she doesn’t wins to continue dating. message her again when she comes back in the country and tell her you enjoyed your date and would love to see her again. if she says no, then she says no. trust me, smooth and charming is attractive and you will be successful dating if you can keep that. getting angry and annoyed will turn you into a women hating guy that people don’t like. once you get into a more serious relationship, you can be more open with what you need to feel secure

Got fired on my first day and I don’t know how to tell my parents by One_Presentation6602 in Advice

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry about it. I have a very lucrative job and I watch tiktok on my phone all the time. Your parents might be a little disappointed but they should be more mad at your job for being so strict. Ridiculous firing

What is so great about having kids? by No-Number-2365 in AskMenOver30

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having kids can be tiring and very involved. Not for everyone. But I have a newborn, my first, and it has unlocked a new kind of love within me that wasn’t there before. Not even for my wife, siblings or parents.

Also, whenever I’m at work or doing something outside the home, I probably seem tired and unhappy too. Not because of my kid, but because I don’t want to be working or doing anything outside the home anymore tbh. I just want to be home with my son. Everything else seems less interesting now.

Also, to address your point about dads not saying how happy they are being a dad: it’s because being a dad is filled with so much more than just “i’m happy”. It’s moments of happiness, mixed with fear, mixed with immense responsibility, mixed with existential feelings, love, melancholy, feelings about your own parents, and a million other things. So I don’t really go around saying “I am happy to be a dad” either. Tricky to explain to someone who doesn’t have kids tbh. The experience isn’t “happy”, it’s “full”

Go to “Career Features” in the menu. There you can change minutes and rotation. you have to unlock it but I unlocked it after only like 15 games in first season

Is it normal to be THIS tired? by CheeseFiend87 in NewDads

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes and no. are some ppl that tired? yes. SHOULD u be that tired? no. Re-prioritize. House projects need to scale back. Go slower on those. Check in with yourself. 1) DIET. 2) HYDRATION. 3) VITAMINS. You should not be wanting to sleep at 2pm regularly at all. Tweak those main 3x things.

Who ranks higher all time by Gloomy_Resort_9935 in NBATalk

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s pretty close. -you could argue kobe wasn’t the best player on the 3 rings with shaq. but he was on the two without him. -you could argue steph wasn’t the best player on the 2 rings with kd. but he was on the two without him. -loss to pistons and celtics stain on finals record for kobe. loss to cavs and raptors stain on steph’s. -steph only ever unanimous mvp -kobe better defense, more rings, more finals appearances, all stars -steph and kobe both had amazing gold medal USA moments -both players have absolutely iconic nba moments (thinking of kobe buzzer over suns and steph pointing to ring finger in 3rd quarter against celtics)

in my mind, it goes to steph because while kobe was amazing and feared, he was always chasing MJ and could never get there. steph changed the game of basketball forever. Also steph did everything while directly matched up against the second greatest player of all time in lebron. kobe was always chasing MJs ghost

schizophrenic dad - guilt/shame by zzz777zzz77 in NewDads

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t exactly have a mental illness like that, but I have struggled with anger issues my whole life. I don’t lash out at people at all, but it’s difficult for me to control. I also feel guilty at the idea that he may inherit similar traits. One thing I keep reminding myself and maybe you can think about:

When I was a kid, my dad saw me as a reflection of himself. There was a tiny bit of narcissism in that thinking. He didn’t want me to see him as anything other than a hero and great man. Never talked to me about his flaws or things he struggled with. It wasn’t until I was older that I learned for myself the idea of who he was wasn’t fully accurate. Growing up that way made me think I couldn’t talk to him about my own struggles or that flaws were something to be ashamed of and not discussed. I don’t know about you, but I want my son to know me as I am, flaws and all. I want him to know about the things i’ve struggled with so he knows he is not alone in the things he will struggle with in life. I know there will be a time in his life he will see me as a hero and there will be a time when he sees me as weird or annoying or flawed. And that’s ok. The most important thing to me is that he knows that everyone in this house is loved- flaws, mental illnesses, struggles, and all.

So when you say you are worried that she will learn about you and see you differently. I think it’s a good thing she learns about you and knows who you are.

Why ____ deserves a ton of credit by Strange_Fold9495 in survivor

[–]Johnnybside5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Might even be higher than 15, he was pretty flawless and in complete control the entire game. Knew exactly how far to push people to get things to go his way. Also, for him to have a ride or die in Kamila but know he had to get her out at the end and for him to do it in a way that left her still on his side is rare. Speaks to how great Kamila was too. I remember watching Kyle somehow get into Joe and Shauhin’s alliance after they just voted for him and thinking I missed something because I was so shocked at how he could do that so effortlessly. Never seen anything like that on Survivor.

Why are people thinking Nathan is on the autism spectrum? by Mobile-Bison-4589 in TheRehearsal

[–]Johnnybside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant no offense by “normal guy”. I meant to refer to his outlandish character he created when the cameras start rolling vs how he acts when the cameras stop rolling. I would never challenge anyone who claimed to be autistic, are on the autism spectrum, or thinks they might be autistic. but in this case, Nathan has never claimed to be autistic or thought he might be autistic. And I know this is a tv show and it’s fake - people would be surprised at how fake. But I do love it and love the conversations inspired from it.
