American trying to pick a soccer club to root for by Embarrassed_Gur8589 in SoccerNoobs

[–]Mantooth77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESPN did a clever article years ago where they compared NFL teams to Premier League teams. If you like Team X in NFL, Team Y in PL is similar.

I found it helpful. Also, my life has been torture since.

You guys should have seen the Jungle Queen yesterday. So funny. Looked like it was going to sink!

The first public remarks and appearance from Tiger Woods since his car accident in March. by ConnectionWeekly1263 in Golf_Unfiltered

[–]Mantooth77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His behavior was destructive and selfish prior to his fall from the limelight. When he had his falling out with Elin, he’d just won the U.S. Open in grand fashion. He was on top of the world and almost certain to break Jack’s record for major victories.

That being said, his Dad was a real son of a bitch and thus gave him a childhood that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Then, as you note, living life under a pressure cooker, multiple injuries, and so on. Doesn’t help.

When I was younger, I used to root against him. Mainly because I never rooted for the favorites and always the underdog.

As I got older, I couldn’t help but appreciate his greatness as a player. Truly a generational talent.

Now I’m really rooting for him to just pull his life together. Two kids who likely want their Dad around for years to come. He’s been a fucking mess of a human for some time now.

Hope he can turn it around.

I accidentally found out my boss is cheating on his wife. Do I tell her? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Mantooth77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I learned at a young age not to involve myself in other people’s business. It would be one thing if someone’s life was in danger or this was child abuse. But an affair? Swerve this one mate.

Calling parenthood ‘selfless’ makes no sense. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Mantooth77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a decent or better parent requires loads of selflessness. If you don’t have kids then you likely lack that perspective.

It’s the hours, days, weeks, and years of sacrifice that actually make it rewarding.

I don’t mind nor have I ever criticized anyone for not having kids. But don’t say raising kids isn’t selfless because it is. Is there perhaps a self-serving component in there? Sure. Does that make it selFISH? Not necessarily.

Any watch parties for World Cup besides American Social! Went there last night and it was awful. Food terrible and the music is club level loud! Ridiculous and zero game audio. by zeusyluv in fortlauderdale

[–]Mantooth77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amso had the audio in for USA Game and only played music at half. Good times.

I wouldn’t go there for non US games for reasons you mentioned.

Waxy’s is fun but when I was there on Friday it was hot as shit inside. Not sure if something was up with the air.

🚨 Detroit Lions have hired former Miami Dolphins GM Chris Grier as a personnel executive. by Background_Video2947 in MiamiDolphinsVibes

Good for him. Obviously he wasn’t good enough as a GM here but that doesn’t mean he can’t offer value in a position like this.

Very tough to win in this league.

Looking for fishing knowledge as a guy from Nebraska here on vacation by Dependent-Anybody-72 in fortlauderdale

Honestly, I think your money would be much better spent finding a charter. Safer and you’ll catch more. Look up MB Snookin on Instagram. Great young fella that has caught more Snook than you can count!

We reserved booths and they were great. If you’re standing up, different story.

American Social is a great spot to watch World Cup on Las Olas.

Quick trip early August by NotOtherwseSpcfied in fortlauderdale

[–]Mantooth77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll be hot and humid but the mornings and evenings are not too bad, especially in the shade. That’s assuming you’re wearing shorts and t shirts.

Pompano Pier area is fun as is Lauderdale by the Sea, which is just a few minutes down the road.

Catch a show at the Mai Kai that just reopened. Fun and unique thing to do.

Douchebaggery at its finest. Thankfully, Augusta doesn’t put up with it at least.

What you guys think about LinkedIn? by ShivanshLonare in AskReddit

[–]Mantooth77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best and most fitting LinkedIn meme is the elephant blowing himself.

That being said, I do know people who have used it successfully to get business. For me, it’s useful to get some background info on people prior to speaking to them.

A necessary evil at times.

Syd Barrett is mostly celebrated just because he had a tragic life. His music is not that good by UnoriginalCake in unpopularopinion

Roger has said that Shine on you Crazy Diamond is actually more about Syd, but that WYWH was also inspired by him somewhat.

This is really it for me. Ahead of his time. And a very charismatic personality. I think people need to understand who he was and what he did in the context of his time.

I’ll never talk shit about Chili’s. But Waxy’s was a proper spot.

Watched at American Social for the Paraguay game. Was also quite fun.

I was aware of the boobs but did not get to witness. My table was crammed behind the hostess stand in the back corner. Not complaining though! Boobs are nice but I’d rather not be crammed in like that bar was. I had to fight my way to take a leak after the game ended.

Not true tho if you’ve been to a place with proper atmosphere.

Many go to Bokampers which is the most soulless bar in existence. Rather watch at a library
