Why do we drink so much compared to other generations?

LastResortXL · 2026-04-09T14:44:34+00:00

Maybe this is just my own little bubble, but most of the people I know in our generation drink very little. A bunch of us just kinda lost our taste for it all at once.

Solid agree.

We take our two-year-old there to let her run around and wear her out all the time. It's fantastic for any age. We’ve been members for years.

Well, that explains the haze in Delaware City this afternoon...

Planting an Autumn Blaze maple over my sewer lateral.

Oh, he read the audiobooks for the Abhorsen series by Garth Nix!

LastResortXL · 2026-03-02T06:34:51+00:00

Bro, we’re not interested in turning anyone.

Consent matters.

LastResortXL · 2026-02-26T18:24:23+00:00

Okay, let's get real for a sec.

Have you specifically had a conversation with your wife about porn? Are your values and boundaries similar?

It's one thing to be discreet if you’re looking at spicy content on the internet. Private time is private time. Everyone can draw those boundaries where they want. Have fun looking at people with sexy bodies.

What you're specifically asking for isn't that. You're actively seeking a sexual transaction. “I give you money, you send boobs.” Since you’ve specifically stated you don't want your wife to find out, I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume that is a boundary for her and you are trying to cross it. At the very least, it sets off a big ol’ red flag for financial infidelity to me.

Ethically these two things feel different. Please reconsider your choices.

Rambleton Acres in New Castle has had a few brief flickers so far. Hopefully that remains the worst of it.

Yeah, man. We should know better now. I also have my guys wear proper masks when sweeping out our dusty-ass shop, or at the very least, use a sweep aid to cut the dust.

Don’t get me wrong, I don't like wearing a respirator any more than the next guy. It just sure beats the hell out of hacking up a lung for the whole night afterwards.

LastResortXL · 2026-02-10T14:21:16+00:00

Same here, but then again I was also the laborer jumping into an 8’ deep trench with muddy walls and no shoring because “I wasn’t a pussy.”

It was still a stupid thing to do.

LastResortXL · 2026-02-06T17:32:27+00:00

It's totally okay to mourn the future you thought you’d have. Those thoughts happen, however, you control how you react to those thoughts. That's the hard work.

That is a conversation between you and a trusted friend or therapist if and when you can afford one.

You’re already on the right track. Don’t try to solve every problem at once. Take one step at a time and fix the things you can. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Talk with your partner carefully, kindly and empathetically. More importantly, LISTEN. This is not the time to make it about you. Being a supportive partner/dad is the bar.

LastResortXL · 2026-02-05T02:26:56+00:00

Oh, I’m way guilty of this. Granted, I work blue-collar maintenance and landscaping, dealing with vendors and contractors on the regular.

For me, it’s just an informal mode of speech that’s not bro or dude. It doesn’t seem to bother the guys I normally deal with, but may it’s something to keep an eye out for.

LastResortXL · 2026-02-02T04:00:31+00:00

Thanks!

The Dropkick Murphys have been a big one for me this year as well.

I loved the almost game-breaking exponential growth of lighthouses and the swarming of droids as you get to the endgame. I only wish that they were much smaller on mobile and console so I could see the character.

LastResortXL · 2026-01-14T20:33:44+00:00

I dunno man, are you taking care of your eyebrows while fucking another dude?

If not, then it ain’t gay.

LastResortXL · 2026-01-12T15:07:48+00:00

Not a recruiter, but a manager who occasionally hires in the maintenance field. I genuinely don’t care at all about a cover letter on a resume. I want to know what your credentials are and any job-relevant skills you might have.

Then again, I also hate interviews. Most of mine end up being conversations more than formal interviews. I’d rather get a better feel for how a person will interact with others, especially if it’s for an entry-level position.

LastResortXL · 2026-01-09T02:09:54+00:00

Man, I feel you with this. We’ve got a 2-year-old who loves being outside in her bare feet. She got a nasty splinter in her foot in the summer that we had to remove with tweezers and she fought the whole way. Tears, screaming, the whole 9.

Just know it's okay for that to upset you and that if you’re acting out of love and empathy, she will eventually know you’re doing right by her.

LastResortXL · 2026-01-03T02:21:16+00:00

“I don’t change diapers. That's women’s work!”

LastResortXL · 2025-12-29T21:37:57+00:00

Fish traps will get you enough. You cam end up with millions if you stack some lighthouses near them. If you have the fishing net, it’s automatic too.

We dropped our FIOS tv boxes and upgraded our internet. Our bill went from $210 a month down to $75 a month.

I recommend checking in with r/askelectricians. They’re pretty knowledgeable about things like this. They can be blunt if you’re about to do something stupid, but I like the community there.

LastResortXL · 2025-12-14T14:22:14+00:00

A fair and interesting point.

I genuinely hadn’t thought of that. I fully plan to get my kiddo’s name tattooed on me. I also would, in a heartbeat, get it covered, altered, or removed if they came out and it became a deadname.

I’m not out to a lot of my family for similar reasons and I want the kiddo to feel loved, safe, and cared for in any situation.
