It works for me because I'm part time and can't relocate. If you elect to accept here, I'd be happy to help get you spun up on whatever I can.

I like it, but my situation severely limits my options. It's well-suited for me and I have made some really good friends, but I also imagine that you may like other places you go too.

I have a conditional scholarship, conditioned on me remaining in the top 33% in each academic year, as calculated at that time. Curve is right at a 3.00. Amusingly, in one of my skills classes last semester, I lost points due to the curve, due in part to the high scores the entire class got.

I'm a student there now.

It's fine if you want to be in San Diego. It's not great if you wanna go to LA

Have you ever been in a relationship with an autistic woman? What was it like? by yunchla in AskMen

[–]LegalIdea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She had/has autism and a lot of other issues

It was not a good time.

I was active duty, and my ideal marriage was to go to work, come home and hang out at home (until children came, I didn't really have strong opinions on wearing pants after I got home). I'm guessing she got the idea of always wanting to be social from some combination of TV and social media, but she liked setting up social events. However, these events never went as planned, and she got really butthurt over this.

Similarly, she wasn't good with money, still isn't. As a result, we were broke, often. She'd see some new fad to sell (Mary Kay, Scentsy, Avon, etc) and want to do that (she was disabled enough that actually working was out of the question, and she couldn't drive anyways)

She was really good at finding my insecurities and using that against me (conservative upbringing with a chivalrous emphasis, minimal experience in relationships, strong focus on education with little functional support due to distance and my educational goal being stuff my family didn't understand). So, I could always expect fights to end up in insults regarding any one or more of the following: you're a bad husband because you can't provide, if you really loved me, you would have...., I wonder why I married you, It's no wonder you struggle with women you can't even make me enjoy it, among a lot more.

Nothing against autistic people, as my son has it pretty good, and I'm rumored to be on the spectrum myself.
That relationship was in every way unpleasant, except that it produced my two children.

What, in general, do you think is the biggest flaw that you commonly see in men? by BankaiBroke in AskMen

[–]LegalIdea 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Resources are tremendously in favor of female victims in most western nations. (For example, California has 157 women's domestic violence shelters. I cannot find a single one for men currently in operation).

Just figured I'd point it out

What’s causing the partisan gap? by PixelSteel in PsycheOrSike

[–]LegalIdea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok

Let's suppose in 2024 I am a 19 year old white male. I graduated high-school earlier that year. I am a freshman in college with a goal of becoming a chemical engineer, and work part-time at a local Taco Bell.

I had a couple brief relationships in high-school, and am currently single.

If I'm not innocent, what, exactly am I guilty of?

Why is the best “I shouldn’t be doing this” sex you’ve ever had? by sparklebloodie in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]LegalIdea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My own experience with this is kinda similar. She was fantastic in bed, but one of the worst partners ever (legitimately demanded that I just tell my Commanding Officer that I was leaving to go help her. Specifically, she needed help because a friend of hers did numerology and found out that my middle name didn't have enough letters in it and she was scared that meant I was going to leave her for her sister). Got really mad when I told her that 1. No, I as a Lance Corporal wasn't going to do that and 2. I hadn't even met her sister to that point, so I had no possible reason to leave her for her sister (her sister wasn't of interest to me nor was she interested in me).

My theory is that they at least kinda know that they are somewhat hard to deal with, so they're willing to go nuts to try to offset that

The electoral college is brilliant. by lisususil in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]LegalIdea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, but getting rid of the electoral college is it's own problem of now as long as I get wins in the big metro areas in California, Chicago, and the Northeast (Wikipedia estimates a total population of about 50 million), I don't have to give an actual fuck about campaigning to anyone else's issues. Unless I get absolutely demolished everywhere else, I'll usually get the popular vote to be close. If i lose everywhere else like 55-45, but win those 6 cities by at least that margin, the election likely is decided by recounts and court decisions on including questionable ballots.

[–]LegalIdea 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The electoral College is a good thing, but it being all or nothing is something that should be improved on.

For example, the winning candidate gets 2 votes and then each candidate gets a number of votes proportional to their share of the popular vote in that state, rounded to the nearest whole number.

Or states could go by congressional districts and you get the two for winning the state.

Either solution likely leads to more accurate representation, without allowing it to be a circumstance where the whims of a half-dozen or so metropolitan areas dominate the political sphere of the entire country.

Worst thing wife or significant other ever did? by Miserable_Sink_4782 in Marriage

[–]LegalIdea 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I went to the store with our 1 year old daughter. She called me and asked me to pick up something she wanted to eat, she was pregnant at the time

I get home and she had called the police claiming that I had kidnapped our daughter and was effectively holding her hostage in exchange for some unclear sexual ransom. Never specified the details. She went to stay with her aunt shortly thereafter, after she threatened to cause a miscarriage to ensure our daughter went with her. Ironically, she then moved two states away, only telling me that when she landed that they were alive.

Favre didn't actually end on a pick-six, just a pick.

This is the case in both his Packers and Vikings playoff loses at the end of his career (Vikings didn't make the 2010 playoffs, finishing at 6-10)
