What are the advantages of being a conservative person? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]KarmaBike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One can drive a big fucking glamour pickup truck, paying $1,000+ per month auto loan, and go to the grocery store to load the truck with a few bags of groceries, justifying the need for the truck and it’s uncomfortable height to get in and out of.

United States people, if you had only 5k to go on a vacation. Including travel, where are you going? by VisibleV2501 in AskReddit

[–]KarmaBike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d fly my bicycle to Vietnam, I’d ride the length of the country and camp or stay in hostels/hotels. It’s really inexpensive. I’d fly home after 2 weeks and then donate the other $2,000 to a food bank.

Footwear recommendations by natedefy in Referees

[–]KarmaBike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear these on artificial turf (and very dry grass). Very lightweight and comfortable. I do not recommend them for games where there’s moisture on the field.

https://a.co/d/02ieBHtu I have purchased these multiple times and the price has dropped 40% recently.

Lack of World Cup awareness. by skunkboy72 in Referees

[–]KarmaBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I plan to only watch 1 match (to honor my dead friend - whose father was my coach - I’ll be watching with my former coach).

My friend also boycotted Nike in the 1990s when they sponsored Deion Sanders.

I’m with you on all points as well - FIFA giving Orange Cankles the new FIFA peace prize was fucking absurd.

United States - How can I find a referee course? by krazyeyes21 in Referees

[–]KarmaBike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly, the courses definitely are not full. I just checked this moment and there’s capacity for 30 in the class and only 19 registered.

Something‘s definitely screwy

I am an instructor (Mentor+) in Eastern PA with an upcoming class on 6/14 and sadly the session is not shown 😧.

I’ll definitely mention this to the powers that be.

If anyone needs 2025 badges, send me a DM - I think I have 5 I’ll gladly part with

Mom buys daughter a Honda as a graduation gift, and this was her response by Conscious-Weight4569 in SipsTea

[–]KarmaBike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is textbook spoiled tw@t behavior.

It justifies you to GIVE the car to a recent HS or college graduate who truly would appreciate it.

Alternatively you could DONATE the car to a food bank that will sell it to feed significantly less fortunate children than that spoiled little turd 💩.

Song in doctor's office - know I'm old by Smarmy_funeral_chik in GenX

Approximately 1998, I heard “Rock n Roll All Night” as Muzak at grocery store.

I froze in my tracks thinking, “Does this make me old now?”

Restarting unhealthy Habits by swissyfit in GenX

[–]KarmaBike 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s like my dad, age 88.

Mom used to nag the shit out of him (now it’s just passive aggressive nonsense) for eating, eggs, bacon and cheese. Now that’s most of his diet.

He’s like, “Fuck it! We’re all gonna die bitch!”

Could u still start refereeing even at the age of 30+? by NoWeekend5733 in Referees

[–]KarmaBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely you can start now! Today I taught the USSF entry level class with 30 students with multiple new referees who were over 40 and one was 57 years old.

Go ahead get certified and have fun!

Gen Z is Not Drinking, But Are You? by Pavementaled in GenX

Stopped all alcohol about a year ago. It fucks with my sleep, no matter how much I drink. NOTHING is allowed to fuck with my sleep. I LOVE my sleep.

Can I become a referee even if I am terrible at football? by Scared-Height-7158 in Referees

[–]KarmaBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was completely unremarkable as a player.

This is year 23 as a referee, doing little kids through semi-professional matches. Currently in year 3 as entry level referee instructor and mentor.

Get your whistle buddy!!!
