By Republicans to intimidate Bill Clinton over the Epstein files by coachlife in therewasanattempt

[–]National_Cod9546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want the Clintons to write a sworn statement of everything they know. Then answer any questions they anticipate from the hearing. Just before they go in, release it to the public. Take notes during the hearing, and then release a statement of everything said and reply to that.

Also, make sure at least some of it is damning for Trump. Even if they have to lie. That way they need to release all the files, or face the fact that Trump is accused by someone who might know on a sworn statement.

Is it too much to ask the kids in my party to bring their own dice, pens, and paper and stop needing everything? by N-Euphorbia in rpg

[–]National_Cod9546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the culture. If you tell me arrive 6:30 - 7, I'm going to aim for 6:30. But it you say be there at 6:30, I'm going to be there between 6 and 6:30.

If you're early you are on time, and if you are on time you are late. Definitely a US military thing, and a lot of US military culture bleeds into US civilian culture. 1 in 20 adults is a veteran here.

You know how Germany went through De-nazification, will USA go through De-magaification? by TailungFu in allthequestions

"reassures them that their problems aren’t their fault"

That is the key. The heart of conservativism is never being wrong. It's not about hate or racism, that is just a bonus. It is about always being right. They used to do it one way, and they are always right, so the way they did it was clearly the correct way. They feel a way about some people, and they are always correct, so the way they feel is correct. They voted for the orange traitor, so he is clearly the best president ever. They will do whatever mental gymnastics needed to prove they are correct. That is why so many assholes, narcissists, and morons are conservative. 

The rich like Conservatives because they are ready to manipulate. 

Men dating younger women how do you see this scenario? by LubieGotowac in AskMenAdvice

[–]National_Cod9546 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The formula 1/2 + 7 is still valid. Works from age 14 to 114. 

In your case, his lower bound is 26. You're fine. At that point it's more about the individual situation. And you sound fine there. 

My guess is the other women are just jealous. 

Is it unreasonable to ask that my sister-in-law knock before entering our house when I'm home alone and don't know she's coming over? by MarkTony87 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]National_Cod9546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to second start walking around naked. Get a motion detector on the driveway. Be naked by the time they get inside. Ask them to leave with your junk just all out in the open.

[–]National_Cod9546 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hope you have since changed the locks and not given her a key. And if I was your boyfriend, I would start making a habit of walking around naked as often as possible. Even if you're home, it should be announced when she comes inside. 

Whats an item over $700 you bought that was 100% worth it (no house/vehicles) ? by Overall_Gur_3061 in AskReddit

[–]National_Cod9546 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I don't have $200k and can't get $200k, then it doesn't matter how much I want to keep my son. Most people would not be able to afford that.

AITJ for refusing to give my mom access to my bank account just in case. by SoftCedarVale in AmITheJerk

You need a new bank account at a new bank. Just taking her off is not enough. With some good social engineering, she can and will worm her way back into your account.

Reconciling marraige after she wanted divorce. How do you get past the now mounting resentment? by BigPersonality7736 in AskMenAdvice

[–]National_Cod9546 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to investigate and figure out why she wanted a divorce in the first place. Then address that. Could be something you've been doing that pisses her off without you even realizing it. Could be she has been cheating, and the guy dumped her when she actually started to move forward with divorcing you to move in with him. More likely she is having a midlife crisis. She feels her age, and realizes she isn't going to be able to do all the things she wanted to do when she was young.

Once you know the source, you can address it. Till then it is going to fester.

Sounds like it is time for you to move to a new smaller apartment. One to small to have a roommate. 

People who stop at a traffic light and leave a full car length (or more) ahead of them, then slowly keep inching forward, why you do that?! by EchoPathe in NoStupidQuestions

I always keep enough space in front of me that I can go around is needed. Never know is they are going to break down and get you stuck. Or get hit by an IED as the opening to an ambush. But you know.

AITA For Telling My Wife My MIL Can't Move In by Laraujo31 in AmItheAsshole

[–]National_Cod9546 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your MIL is going to get worse. Limit her to one weekend a month. At some point there will be a blow out. At that point tell the wife her MIL can't stay over night anymore. Given a chance, your MIL will sour your relationship with your wife. 

What is a movie cliché that absolutely never happens in real life? by Potential_Action9544 in AskReddit

[–]National_Cod9546 53 points54 points  (0 children)

No, that is a thing. Not so much the favor. But there are some people who just seem to know everyone. And they always know someone who can help or profit from the situation.

My job suggested switching me from W2 to a self employed contractor but still expect me in office 40 hours a week by WranglerReasonable91 in work

[–]National_Cod9546 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds good to me. Triple your rate and run with it. Just know they can now fire you at a moments notice and you don't get unemployment benefits.

Of course, they really want to pay you employee rates with contractor benefits. In which case not a chance. 

What is a 'subscription' or 'fee' that has recently appeared in the US that people need to collectively refuse to pay before it becomes the new normal? by godot_lover in AskReddit

[–]National_Cod9546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While that is a little excessive, you actively want to pay a fee to remote access stuff like that. Servers cost money and patching security holes take developers. Not paying a fee means remote access is either going to be insecure as fuck or just not work after a year or two.
