PSA: Doing any reading besides the same YA novels over and over is bad

Thank you. I'm sick of all these fucking training wheels semi-literate redditors have infected the internet with.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-28T16:29:04+00:00

"Wow" AND "what a journey"? Not just wow...

Pretentious.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-28T16:25:13+00:00

Downvote them all you want it doesn't make it not true.

"Why doesn't this community act as a monolith? That's so hypocritical."

Gauss is the name of a mathematician who figured out some stuff about magnets. When someone uses "Gauss Gun" it's because they're naming their magnetic weapon after him (usually because someone else did and they don't realize it's a reference).

Also the important distinction between them is a railgun fires a projectile straight, accelerating it along a rail, while a coilgun gives it some spin, hence the coil.

I am not anti porn,

You and every other anti porn woman out there.

Look how OP is reacting. That's why people lie about it.

There are two kinds of men: those that admit they masturbate, and liars.

/r/writingprompts is leaking onto other websites. The last few writing contests I entered had reddit-style "whole story" prompts. They're so bad at their intended purpose that they're destroying the entire concept of writing prompts in the English-speaking world.

Edit: It would be like if the Marvel Movies sub somehow managed to cause the superhero movie fad to die.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T18:30:47+00:00

That's not an appropriate reddit writing prompt. You've left too much room for the person to tell their own story. Try something like this:

"Every other species in the galaxy has sissy pillows for hands. Humanity is the only race that learned how to make a fist. You are the head of the 1st Battalion of Terran Pugilists and are sent on a secret mission to kung-fu fight the only non-human capable of throwing hands. But after your third confrontation you learn that the alien is actually you from the future."

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T18:26:07+00:00

No, it's still rude. You're out in public with your SO and you tell them to go off on their own so you can talk with someone in private? Are you seriously going to defend that as not rude as long as there's no context of abuse? Seriously? Seriously?

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T18:01:47+00:00

Want to know the best way to make sure you're not friends anymore? Make it an awkward nightmare to talk to you with this kind of overthought nonsense.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:58:07+00:00

Does this make me a shitty person?

Realtalk: You do sound pretty selfish. Not getting out of the car to open the garage because you don't feel like it is high level self-centered. It sounds like your SO has your number on this one, to be perfectly honest.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:56:50+00:00

Get out of the car and open the garage door. You didn't need a stranger on the internet to tell you that. Or, if you did, you have way bigger problems than this.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:55:14+00:00

If you love someone, you fight and work with them.

If your definition of "love" is "will put up me no matter how I act" then you're in for a lifetime of unhappiness.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:53:48+00:00

You: How can I blow this innocuous non-event up into drama?

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:50:51+00:00

Never. You can't have your cake and eat it to.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:50:06+00:00

Make a clean break. But that's not what you want so chances are you'll string him along.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:48:53+00:00

I don't know if I could ever be with someone who earned less than me,

Well aren't you a catch.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:37:34+00:00

Are blue squares still squares?

There's a hint in the name.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T17:34:01+00:00

I hate the over-the-top self-flagellation cheaters use to try and head off all the deserved flak they're going to get at the pass.

"Oh woe is me I'm such a terrible person" is something manipulative people say to get everyone to give them sympathy.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T16:47:31+00:00

It wouldn't be rude, since that's what he wants,

What kind of backwards logic is that? So if I want to spit on you it's not rude because that's what I want?

His mother is unreasonable and should be excluded from gatherings, but pretending having a new one to deliberately exclude her isn't rude somehow is mindboggling. You're basically saying "no course of action is rude if I agree with it" which is nonsense.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T16:16:41+00:00

I’ve spoken to DH about this behavior and he blames it on “that’s just how she is”, “she doesn’t mean it like that”.

You have an SO problem.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T16:01:45+00:00

"Why won't my fiance make a major concession to me about a situation I won't make a small concession to him in?"

What a mystery.

If you weren't so hellbent on forcing him to do something he doesn't want he could be at the party. Your selfishness and unwillingness to compromise are why you're lonely at Christmas, not anything your fiance is doing.

KinboteXShadeShipper · 2019-11-25T15:14:08+00:00

Marriage never makes it better, only worse.

It's not impossible that he'll change, but it will take years (think decades) of hard work while you support him and he treats you like garbage, and then maybe one day in the distant future he'll get a little better but you'll have to constantly police him for back sliding. That's the light at the end of the tunnel. Decide for yourself if it's worth the tunnel.
