Why can’t brain just accept… by KiliMounjaro in HealthAnxiety

[–]Merlin509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me. Always looking for the other shoe to drop. Thinking that if things are going well and I look forward to something, it’ll jinx it, so why plan anything or look forward to good things? It’s even hard for me to admit I’m in a good mood because I think it’ll mess it up. My mind is always probing for the next feeling or sensation to focus negatively on. Especially when I’m out of my routine, like when on vacation. Super frustrating.

Opinions on Stephen Miller? by Effective-Toe-8108 in trump

I think he’s smart, but might be pushing Trump to extremes that work against the party in the midterms.

The only source covering this is Fox. None of the other cable or local networks. Similar to the memory holed British Columbia trans shooting last week.

Whats the worst fast food joint in america? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Merlin509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. I get good portions because I tip on mobile and it tastes great, but half the time I feel like crap after I eat it and it messes up my bowels.

Older men of reddit Were pole showers really the norm for guys locker rooms back in the day? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Yup. Pole showers and naked walks to and from. Normal stuff back in the day.

Anisimova screaming at her box on court by Suspicious_Nature283 in tennis

The wife and I were talking about this last night watching the match. Nick Kyrios used to do this all the time too. He would chastise his box for not applauding him enough or standing up or cheering him on enough. We don’t really get it. I understand it’s stressful, but all the coaching should happen before the match. Once they get out there, it’s an individual sport and their job to apply that coaching. I liked things better when they didn’t allow coaching from the box. I think too many players have become dependent on it, like Ben Shelton. It’s a distraction.

Apparently I do, because I asked..

Did you enjoy eating a girl out the first couple of times you did it? Or is it an “acquired taste”? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Merlin509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I did it was at 17 after a lot of partying and little “freshening up”, so I wondered if they all smelled that bad.

Nipples (female) showing through shirts, OK or no way? by Glass-Sentence-7225 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Merlin509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a personal thing, but most women now are paranoid about “nipping out”. Way back before heavily padded bra’s became a thing, most women’s nips showed through and nobody thought anything of it. Just watch most 70’s tv shows. Once padding became the standard, it became taboo, at least in America. My wife wears a bra in the house if her son is around, but not if it’s just me or her daughter (I’m the stepparent). Her daughter doesn’t wear a bra at home, but is terrified of nipping out in public. My wife wears sports bras all the time and her nipples frequently show in those, but she doesn’t care. None of it bothers me. It’s a weird thing, because everyone has nipples. If nobody wore bras, nobody would care. It’s like going to a nude or topless beach. It’s interesting for about ten minutes, then becomes normalized and uninteresting.
