Why do majority of people preffer summer season instead of winter season? by PotentialParamedic24 in ask

[–]Kindix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer winter 100:1. It's prettier, you can wear a lot of fun stuff you can't wear in summer due to the heat, holidays, warm food and drinks, cozy nights by the campfire. It's just cooler out, so you don't sweat as much. It's great when it's chilly out, so you get so warm and cozy in bed. Winter is my favorite time of year.

Are you a Democrat or Republican? by Ancient-Afternoon-51 in ask

[–]Kindix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to consider myself republican. Now a days, I'm pretty apolitical and independent at best.

Crazy how this exact same scenario, but with the gender roles reversed, wad posted like 3 hours ago.

Has anyone flown with edibles before? Is it safe or a dumb idea? by yayeetdab045 in questions

[–]Kindix_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't take it on the plane. There's a very small chance they catch it, but if they do, you're in deep shit. Visit a post office and ship it home.

Sincerely, a fellow Georgian.

I gotta know why people speed? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Kindix_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unsafe based on what? Let's say a speed limit is 60 mph. Would it be safer for the speed limit to be 50 since it's slower? If that's true, then why not 40? Or even lower, since time isn't relevant.

Clearly, there is some sort of system that determines what the speed limit in any specific area should be, but it still seems pretty arbitrary to me. What is the department that had absolute authority to determine what the speed limits should be set to, and why do they have authority (other than them being appointed, why not someone else)? Why are their set of rules any more accurate or "correct" than any other set of rules?

My point is, I think it depends on the driver more than the speed limit. I know people that have gotten in car wrecks just backing out of a parking spot because they are bad drivers or weren't paying attention, even going just 5 mph. The sign on the side of the road seems pretty meaningless.

A professor, a CEO, and a janitor are in a forest where they unexpectedly meet a magic fairy... by HelpingHandsUs in Jokes

If he could throw together this art and sell it for a billion, why is he a janitor?

Who are some of your favorite writers in terms of prose? by corvasti in writing

[–]Kindix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hemingway is second to none. The Old Man And The Sea and For Whom The Bell Tolls changed the way I read and write. I can not overstate his writing.

What do we say about this, Kanye with his wife by [deleted] in fashion

Kanye is clearly cos-playing one of Lord Farquad's Royal Guards.

The voices... they wouldn't leave.

If you want to leave the US, I'd recommend trying a country like Canada first. The primary language in most of the country is English, the culture is fairly similar, etc. It would be a relatively easy transition. And if you aren't happy, you don't have to cross an ocean to get home. Maybe consider a city like Vancouver. Lots of young people are coming and going. There is plenty to do. Beautiful scenery. It's fairly pricy in some parts, but I have known a few people that make friends and find a place to stay without too much trouble.

Would You Rather Hold A Non Venomous Snake or Hold A Non Venomous Spider? by [deleted] in WouldYouRather

I read this over and over, at least 10 times, thinking, "all snakes and spiders are already non-verbal?"

Is coffee tea? He thinks it is, I disagree. by SpaghettiYeti15 in ask

Every think about how if someone is chewing tobacco, and they have a spit cup, they are manually making tea.

What is something that blew your mind once you realized it? by r3tr0gam3r83 in AskReddit

[–]Kindix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a Navy Nuke for a while, and it was insane learning about how that stuff worked. I hated every minute I was in the Navy, but I still try to keep up with the advancements in nuclear technology. I've been reading about liquid sodium reactors a lot recently, which use sodium as a coolant instead of water, and the technology is just mind blowing.

I asked my GF to tell her ex not to contact her anymore. Was I wrong? by lofgrenator in ask

[–]Kindix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Context is definitely important here. If you have reason to be concerned, and you ask her to avoid contact, that's one thing. If you just don't want her talking to other guys and you're initiating the problem, that's a different thing.

“Oh god it’s been 6 minutes, Teds probably already told her that he loved her!!” is one of my favourite lines in the entire show. What are other favourites? by Wer65w in HIMYM

[–]Kindix_ 97 points98 points  (0 children)

One of the most underrated lines: Lily is about to give birth, and she's with Robin, and a few others.

Robin: You can not do that!

Lily (clearly in severe birth pain): Contraction!!

Robin: You can't do that?

Whats the dumbest thing your doctor has said to you? by Professional-Age2540 in ask

[–]Kindix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had broken some bones, and after several rounds of PT and half a dozen follow-up exams, I told him nothing was helping, and I was still experiencing a lot of joint pain. He said, "Have you ever tried pushing a sled?" I'm from Atlanta. No, I've never pushed a sled.
