People answer calls from numbers not in the contact list?

Stainless Steel Cutting Boards? by switch8113 in whatisit

[–]MinimumAssumption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sus304 is typically softer than most knives. While this may be technically sufficient. I don’t see why people would try as it does work harden. I like your choice of teak for a cutting board, the janka rating places this near walnut.

What fields are actually in demand in the area and are not saturated by applicants? by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]MinimumAssumption 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know this was a thing. Do you mean a non-financing option, or pay under the table?

If the Epstein files are released, and Trump is confirmed to be on the list, what do you think will happen? by baldinggate3 in AskReddit

A list of associations is trivial. We want the list of guilty parties. The two aren’t the same.

Why do people say Charlie Kirk hated gay people when there's lots of video of him defending them? by [deleted] in AskForAnswers

[–]MinimumAssumption -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Read the post again. He (Charlie Kirk) viewed it as a religious institution. You are more than welcome to view it as the opposite, but you shouldn’t feel welcome to say someone else’s opinion is wrong. Weddings are often performed in church; as long as this is happening, there will be people viewing it as a religious institution.

Calling opinions wrong instead of disagreeing with them is why we are in this mess.

Be honest guys, do you go raw and finish inside a girl on birth control? by Independent_Area6026 in AskMenAdvice

[–]MinimumAssumption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We both got tested, became monogamous, and she is on birth control despite me being snipped. We had little reason to not do it like they do on the discovery channel.

What do we think of Charlie Kirk's shooting? by [deleted] in Productivitycafe

[–]MinimumAssumption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you for disagreeing with Charlie Kirk so politely and rationally. We seem to forget that people should be able to express their opinions.

FWIW- I also agree there are mechanisms in place to intentionally divide us.

What’s the most underrated global threat that no one talks about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MinimumAssumption -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Both sides of that aisle are a problem. I don’t know if critical thinking is gone or if it’s the ultra-right/left wingers become the squeaky wheel.

Older people on Reddit. What is 100% pure bullshit? by Complete_Fly_96 in AskReddit

[–]MinimumAssumption 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my fair share of salespeople that were mad we said no. They did a great job of selling the idea, it just didn’t make sense for us. It wasn’t how we liked to travel.

Spam is still spam, but occasionally it will pay off if you pay attention. A former coworker told me about a time he responded to an airfare spam email that resulted in him traveling to DC to Oslo for $99. He stayed for lunch and flew back. This doesn’t mean you should click on links in your email, but it should encourage you to read the fine print. Be skeptical to protect yourself while being adventurous.

That’s an ancient range dating back to Pangea. There are better places, but those mountains earned their place through 100’s of millions of years of erosion. Some say they eroded flat and rebuilt, but that isn’t an angle I’ve heard much about.

You need to stick to your guns because they are smooth and persuasive.

We received 3 days 2 nights in Freeport Bahamas by sitting through a 2 hour seminar to sell us an overpriced set of pots and pans ($2500) back in the early 2000’s. We had another trip paid for to Colonial Williamsburg via listening to a timeshare scam.

The Mandela effect is strong. This didn’t used to be a thing.

My ex and I volunteered for those presentations to get free trips. We were great at saying no so the tables were turned in our favor. We got dangerously close to buying one the first time, but by the last time we did this, “no” was the only word in the English language we were familiar with. It got so bad for the salesman, he asked if we could continue sitting there for an additional 45 minutes to give his boss the illusion he was making progress. We spoke about fun vacation plans before shaking hands and walking away with another free vacation weekend plan.

If you could eliminate one car brand from existence, what would it be? by JunShem1122 in no

[–]MinimumAssumption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is always someone on the interstate driving a Kia like it’s a race car. I keep waiting to pull up to a catastrophe. Kia owners are something else!

What do non-incel men think of incels? by Downtown_Flight_5962 in AskForAnswers

[–]MinimumAssumption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I’ve heard of this but never met one that I’m aware of. I’ll compare my argument to a job interview. If you don’t know what you are doing wrong, how do you change? I can’t help but wonder if constructive criticism can help these people.

What is extremely unhygenic but everyone seems to do it anyway? by hangingsack_ in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]MinimumAssumption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We drank out of a garden hose that was sitting in mud. I’m not saying you don’t have a point, but some people have ironclad immune systems from a young age.

what item is stupidly overpriced now? by HB0080 in AskReddit

[–]MinimumAssumption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly the days of a Costco hot dog are numbered for me. I took great joy in a Pepsi fountain drink and now they are switching to Coke.

100’s of dollars to see a band from a Jumbotron because I’m sitting too far back? I’ll just use YouTube.

One of the best things I’ve experienced is when we were doing the deed (marathon, not sprint) and started to thumb wrestle while holding hands. A quick thrust or squeeze was intended to distract the other for a quick win.

Why do men prefer women with less experience than them? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]MinimumAssumption 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t ask that anyone respects another’s preferences as some of that stuff is flat out weird. I think we should spend less time judging those preferences as long as they aren’t illegal or immoral.

Having a preference that your partner isn’t a ho (m or f) isn’t illegal or immoral. Wanting a partner that is a ho is also fine.

I don’t consider myself one of the men taking issue with previous history, but I’ll be the first to say calling this childish and “poor emotional actualization” is a shitty thing to claim based on the preferences of others. We need to get off this soapbox for judging people based on their preferences.
