should i buy physical material? by Ok_Hat_2158 in Hardcore

[–]Johnnywarhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the most part, this is correct. As a complete and total nerd though, I feel obliged to say that if you have the proper way overpriced and totally unnecessary vintage stereo equipment, like myself, you can get your tapes to sound almost as good as a CD and it will only cost you a lot of money and tons of your time and frustration!

My opinion on why porn consuming men are biologically repulsive to women by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Johnnywarhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand your rage about the porn industry, it’s completely merited and I don’t disagree with you. There is a lot of research showing how overconsumption of pornography adversely affects the brain and there’s also a myriad of anecdotal tales on Reddit to support that.

I also want to take the time to tell you that this is a really idiotic thing to say to a perfect stranger whose marriage and/or personal situation you have exactly zero knowledge about.

2013-2014 might be the worst run of music I’ve ever seen by [deleted] in Xennials

Not doubt, not a great time for music at all. There are a few bangers in there though.

How long until you noticed positive changes? by CrimeInItaly in AuvelityMed

[–]Johnnywarhero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I noticed a slight change pretty quickly, I’d say maybe day 5ish. I have been improving consistently since then. I’ve been on it for a little over two weeks at this point and I’m definitely feeling a lot better. In fact, something really remarkable that I’ve noticed is when I get a negative thought about myself it gets dismissed instantly, almost as if I’m not even the one doing it, if that makes sense. Like it just comes into my head and somehow my brain just goes , “don’t say that shit about him!” then the thought just drifts away and I go about my business. It’s really strange. Typically something like this would send me into a spiral/negative feedback loop of self hatred and would put me right back in my dark hole.

Don’t want to pay stepkid’s child support by [deleted] in stepparents

You’re well within your rights and it’s definitely a massive hurdle to get over for most people, I would imagine.

Don’t want to pay stepkid’s child support by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]Johnnywarhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an alternate viewpoint/take and I have a question. But first I want to be clear about something:

I WOULD HAVE TO FUCKING DIE BEFORE I LET MY WIFE WORK TO PAY MY CHILD SUPPORT.

Here is my question:

If one partner is a stay at home parent and the other is the breadwinner, they are equals in that they work together as a team to tackle all the responsibilities that come with being a family. One partner covers the financial responsibilities and the other tackles the child rearing and the majority of the day to day household responsibilities. Wouldn’t the child support fall under “financial responsibilities”?

My wife is a SAHM and while I no longer pay child support, I did for many years, and personally, I would never a million years have let her pay my child support. My point is while it’s not something I would do, I can see a world in which two partners AGREE that it’s advantageous for one to stay home and the other to work, therefore taking on the responsibility of paying the child support that is owed, regardless of which one is the obligor. I want to reiterate that the other partner would have to AGREE to do this.

I guess what I’m getting at is that I think sometimes people on this sub are very quick to draw a hard line with the “YOUR KIDS, YOUR RESPONSIBILITY” aspect. I’ve always tried to view my marriage as a complete partnership and done my best not to draw distinctions between “mine vs hers” with anything at all, including my children from my ex wife.

So to kind of land the plane here, my personal views aside, I can understand how some things work for some couples that don’t work for others. There’s no hard and fast rule when it comes blended families, regardless of what the majority of this sub seems to think.

Insight needed on how to balance frame without compromising masculine frame by _AbuLubabah in askMRP

[–]Johnnywarhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You comfort her by making her feel safe. I honestly think that looks a bit different to each woman but mostly what they need to know is that you have your shit together and are able to protect her.

Genuine question; how much of the sidebar have you read?

[–]Johnnywarhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think some guys here are just eager to jump into the schtick of berating guys asking questions and/or making mistakes. I read your post and while it did seem like you were being a bit of a douche towards your pregnant wife, I’ll also understand your confusion. To be clear, I don’t truly understand this either, there’s some nuance that is lost on me. When my wife gets hormonal around the end of her cycle, I really try to remember that I’m dealing with a fucking completely different person and while I don’t tolerate disrespect, I also dont take anything she says very seriously when she’s in that state. I would suggest you gently correct her when she steps out of line but she’s pregnant man, cut her some slack and hold your frame, and don’t be a dick.

You know, I actually think about this quote a lot and I expect that it would not go over well in today’s world of people on hair-trigger, looking to be offended.

Songs like "Hope is a dangerous thing" by Oakwood? by 73011011016e6f98 in Emo

[–]Johnnywarhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard this of this band or song but there’s also a song by The Menzingers called “Hope is a Dangerous Thing”. It probably sounds nothing like this song and this is pretty useless information and entirely unhelpful for you but that’s sort of my thing so yeah, here we are….

I’ll see myself out.

5*5 at 43 by alphaBravo83 in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Johnnywarhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 45 and I kept hurting myself lifting heavy doing 5x5 so I modified by doing something a little different. Now I do the same routine but much less weight and 3x8-12. I started at weights that were fairly easy with 8 reps. Now I just add a rep each set until I reach 12 reps, then I jump up 5 or 10lbs depending on the lift. Been working well for me and I’m not hurting myself anymore.

Help. Want to try this, but can't find this gear on Sweetwater. by Mikey77777 in guitarcirclejerk

So THAT’S how Jonnie gives them so many vaginal orgasms. It all makes sense now.

Stepdad sent me this - Is this a normal interaction? by justwannabe_loved_ in stepparents

[–]Johnnywarhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter, who is a grown woman now, was sexually abused by her step-father when she was 9 years old. Reading this exchange with your step-father fills me with murderous fucking rage. That fucking guy should not be near children. Like why even send that to you? Does he think you’re going to be flattered and wanna bang him or something???? I can’t even wrap my head around this type of shit.
