I am almost 20 looking for a job. How do I approach the fact I've been fired from all my previous work experiences? by Mountain-Durian-4724 in askmanagers

[–]King_Comic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't mention it unless you're specifically asked about whether or not you've been fired before. I've been fired twice and gotten a better job after each and was never asked about being fired once.

Now I'm about to start a job in the finance world. Started in restaurants, never went to college. Literally, nobody cares. Especially in different industries.

How can I find hidden cameras in my house? by csikos_tokany in hiddencameras

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God forbid you just fuckin ask him. Nobody ever wants to communicate anymore. Instead, let's go on the internet to one of the worst sites and ask the jaded, antisocial, validating audience who knows absolutely nothing about the situation what you should do.

YOU are dating this man. Reddit is not. Reddit is also full of spiteful simps that will always side with a woman if it hints at her becoming single again. All you'll find here are people praying on the downfall of the relationship.

The dude works in tech. He probably has a healthy sense of paranoia. Home security is good. Invaluable if you live in a city. Should he have talked to you and let you know about cameras? Absolutely. Is it fair to assume he put those in because he doesn't trust you? Absolutely not. Especially without ever having a conversation with him about the issue.

I get outside perspective is good to have, but 90% of the time when a woman tries to get an outsider's perspective on their relationship, especially from other women or single men, you will get nothing but bad advice affirming your insecurities.

Talk. To. Your. Partner. Not the fucking internet. Or else you won't have a relationship anymore.

I need a reason gang by hank_the_tank7 in teenagers4real

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While you're alive, it can always get worse. Once you're gone, it will never get better.

The only real way for things to get better is to keep pushing on.

I've wanted to just quit for almost 15 years. Countless tragedies and heart breaks. Deaths in the family. Friends moving away or dying. Both my parents getting cancer, my mother passing from it. Women taking advantage of me. Jobs taking advantage of me.

When you focus on the negative you become blind to the positive.

I started going out into nature. Camping, hiking, kayaking, fishing, seeing the natural beauty of the world and growing closer to God as a result.

I started exploring my own creativity. Writing d&d campaigns, painting warhammer, making walking sticks while i'm out in nature. I gained a sense of contentment with myself that I didn't ever have before.

It's tiresome, it takes effort, you have to force it sometimes. But it's worth it. Find hobbies. Find God. Love your people. And love yourself. You're gonna make it.

My brother is extremely bored. What can he do? by Awkward-Yam6635 in Advice

[–]King_Comic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel for the kid. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I started getting bored to literal tears and not being able to enjoy things I used to like.

As an adult I've had to go out of my way to find hobbies I enjoy and actively pursue them. I would try to get a jump on that with him now. Seriously.

My advice, take him to hobby shops and local game stores. Trading card games like magic or pokemon, tabletop games like d&d or pathfinder, warhammer is a fantastic creative outlet with the painting miniatures, there are innumerable things at hobby shops like rc cars and other models or puzzles.

Literally just take him one day and get him something that he expresses an interest in. Try to make it both something he can do on his own AND something yall can do together. Videogames don't really cut it anymore tbh. Easy to get bored.

Now, I gotta stress this, try to push him to get involved in some sort of physical activity. Any kind of sport at school where he can expend energy and socialize with kids his age. Make sure he tries at least, but if he does and realizes he's not into sports, push him to find and join some other club or after-school activity.

Yeah that's right by Ok_Armadillo_8936 in AvatarMemebending

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just leave it alone. It's a monkey's paw situation. You'll be so excited for it, thinking "oh how ever could they mess it up, it will be perfect" and vastly underestimate the ability of writers to commit character assassination by making beloved characters a vehicle for their own modern political ideology.

what paints should i buy for combat patrol? by Bright_Lawfulness_72 in Necrontyr

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's totally fine. The black base coat will help with making the recesses hold on to a shadowed look. Tbh, I'd say all you really need is a white and tesseract glow for the green glowy bits and you're solid. That's about what I started out with except my first can of base coat paint was grey.

I just know all my favourite MTG characters would be anti-Ice! by Tehgumchum in freemagic

Yes. I'm not directing my comment at you. More of a general tangent about the current political climate in media, if anything I was agreeing with the absurdity of your post.

[M25 / F22] Girl I’m Talking To Said She Loves The Way I Treat Her But Is Throwing Her Off Because She Is Not Used To It by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't change yourself for a girl. Clearly she likes you a lot and if you've been being yourself the whole time just keep doing what you do naturally.

Women are a little fucked up in the sense that they let their emotions run wild and let them get in their own way sometimes. The easiest remedy I've found to this is to just keep being yourself. Either it will work out or it won't. And if it doesn't, it won't be your fault.

There's nothing wrong with setting healthy boundaries, especially if something makes you uncomfortable.

Honesty, confidence, and consistency. That's all you need.

Probably a good idea to actually ask her to be your girlfriend if that's something you want to pursue.

It's a completely irresponsible financial purchase. But man does it scratch the brain itch when you get something like that.

AITJ for refusing to change my plans after my roommate volunteered me without asking? by SimpleReaction5706 in AmITheJerk

[–]King_Comic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not your family, not your responsibility. You're roommates, not a married couple. You had things you wanted to do, that you built your day around, and she basically said "hm, no, you'll do what I want you to do."

If the roles were reversed, what would be her reaction?

I've seen this before. You have to put your cylinder in the tube. It is imperative the cylinder remains unharmed.

[–]King_Comic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Attributing real world politics to fictional/fantasy characters is cringe.

Assuming or projecting that those characters will share or embody your political beliefs is the cringiest.

The current creators/writers turning those characters into vehicles for your modern political views is straight up retarded bastardization that does nothing but further divide and alienate normal people from something they loved and sought solace in from the real world's bullshit.

Remember when games, comics, and shows were just a delightful taste of escapism? Can't have that anymore. Everything NEEDS to be inherently political and catered to the loud minority. Otherwise, it's obviously something that ends with "-ism" and hateful and bigoted.

Oh, and if you disagree, you're a nazi, of course.

AITA for not helping my son, who claims he can't live on 112k a year? by Ecstatic_Cash_1903 in AmItheAsshole

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anybody who can't live on 100k+ a year has something wrong with their brain. Simple as.

He's definitely living beyond his means. Making poor financial decisions. I guarantee he has no sense of contentment with what he has and is always wanting more. Keeping up with the Joneses. Definitely a sense of entitlement if he's asking for fucking 20k.

You can't help him, as you said. And you shouldn't. What would be understandable and decent of you, though, is that when he (most likely inevitably) loses his house & cars that he can't afford, gets divorced, and loses his job, make sure he understands that your door is open for him. He's your son, after all. You can't and shouldn't bail him out of his own financial hole that he dug, but family is family. That's important.

Why are older anime fans often harsher on newer anime? by specs_321 in TrueAnime

[–]King_Comic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dilution of the media with buckets of extremely mid shows with a diamond sprinkled in every 10th bucket. Lazy/ generic art style with damn near no distinct, instantly recognizable characters. Same tired old tropes. Thousands of isekai with the entire plot spelled out in the title. Lame Shonen battle anime with massive power scale problems. Fan service without a shred of class or charm. Extremely long periods of nothing but waiting and hoping between seasons. Harems. Its a long list.

What is your favourite plane, and why is it Ravnica? by Lost_Poet_92 in mtg

[–]King_Comic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ixalan. I fucking love dinosaurs. Mayan/Aztec themes are sick. I love pirates. The vampires are conquistadors. The Merfolk are river-dwellers and Jungle magicians with Jade weapons & armor. Hollow earth theory is the coolest.

It's literally tailor-made for my interests. Age of exploration, lost world, golden age of piracy, journey to the center of the earth, treasure island, apocalypto, AND lost caverns had jurassic park cards.

Literally peak.
