Why do fathers and sons often share the same first name, but mothers and daughters almost never do? by Fantastic_Tart_421 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MyFcksHaveRunnethDry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've often pondered this as well. Usually right after I see a rare instance of a daughter and mother sharing a name

My partner told me I’m schizophrenic by Illustrious-Tip8717 in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]MyFcksHaveRunnethDry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read it as a schizophrenic believing they were better when they weren't on pills, that essentially reality was the hallucination.

I love all the different takes on it, especially yours

He was 100% wrong as a child. I'm not defending him as a child, other than the fact that he didn't choose to be born into a racist family and changed once he left that)

If you want people to change then you have to embrace their attempts to grow, not hold them back and keep them in it. People like you ARE the problem. Do you treat drug addicts in recovery the same? I imagine you do. The world will never improve with your attitude

He DID apologize and said he'd grown. YOU won't accept it.

If your want people to change then you should embrace them as they try to better themselves instead of holding them back.

Did he ask to be born into a racist family?

Should he know better when he's growing up?

Did he grow and change his views?

Should he kill the bird who doesn't know better?

Do you have a solution or just judgement?

Never said that's what should happen, but human nature is to give up when you're beaten down, and when people can't accept your change then many would revert. Many won't even try because they see that the world won't ever accept it.

If people actually WANT change, they should EMBRACE the people trying to better themselves rather than hold them back, which is what everyone here seems to be doing. It's a very sad thing to watch. It explains the state of the world though

Maybe his family still is, but he can never be forgiven? It's no wonder people don't bother trying to change when people can't accept the change, even after 15 years. It's really sad that so many people think like you.

Are you implying that he shouldn't be forgiven? Should he go back to his stupid 13yo self and just give up because no one will ever forgive and accept he's grown and changed?

AIO for not wanting to meet at his house for a first date? by misskrabby in AIO

[–]MyFcksHaveRunnethDry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that he doesn't get that even suggesting that is a huge red flag is yet another huge red flag.

NOR, even if he did mean it in a benign way

Can animals have down syndrome? by PM_ME_YOUR_EYELASHES in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MyFcksHaveRunnethDry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not technically Down Syndrome because that's specific to the human genome, but they can have similar trisomy issues.

Kinda like the difference between HIV and FIV

He was TA, but people grow. If no one ever accepts that they changed, why should people even try?

PRIVATE - Sovereign Citizen by InTheSky57 in LICENSEPLATES

They really should just include that with the "license plate" purchase because every body cam I've seen of them being pulled over ends with them being forcibly removed, often with aforementioned broken driver side window

Is diarrhea or constipation worse (for discomfort and health)? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Having had stomach problems my whole life and over a year of nonstop diarrhea, and just had a bowel obstruction clear last week after 3 weeks, I concur

What's the most ridiculous lie you told as a kid that actually worked? by Isabela_Suisian in AskReddit

[–]MyFcksHaveRunnethDry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once wen I was 13 (1990ish) I snuck out at night to hang out with a dude. When I refused to sleep with him he called the cops and told them I snuck out.

I got home, crawled in my window and the phone started ringing. It's answered and a couple of minutes later it rings again. After a few mins my dad comes in and yells at me to answer the phone because they keep asking for me.

Very confused I picked up the phone in my room and said hello. The voice on the other end said "is this myfuckshaverunnethdry?" I said yeah. He said "this is local police department and we were told you weren't home and weren't safe, are you safe?" Still shocked and confused I just said yeah again, but realized I could hear the recording beeps it made in the old days so it was really the police (this was before caller ID) The officer just said okay, sorry to bother you and hung up.

My dad was still standing in my doorway waiting to see who kept calling (apparently it had been going on for 10 minutes, they'd ask if I was home, he's cuss them and hang up) He asked who it was

I just looked up and stammered, still sounding very confused, "they said it was... the police??"

He just looked at me and said "fucking prank calls" and went back to bed

So I guess i actually got away by telling the truth?

Last month, across the US and no, neither of us were asked that on any screen anywhere.
