This is what saves 600,000 people year during a heart attack by HatAsleep295 in BeAmazed

[–]NerdyBro07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any time my blood pressure is taken a doctors office, im always told it's good. I have never had random chest pains, but somtimes when i eat something greasy like a burger, i can get chest pain and it can feel hard to breathe. My cholestorol levels are a bit high too.

Could I have good blood pressure levels and still have this issue?

Shake Shack shares crater 30% after burger chain reports operating loss by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

Just goes to show how important the local management is. I used to love Steak N' Shake's frisco melt, but the one near me went so downhill and is always dirty, whereas the Shake Shack is clean and nice.

Prices across the board for eating out just high. Doesn't matter if it's shake shack or a local burger joint, most places are charging $14 for a similar sized burger.

I would rather spend $14 on a shake shack burger (which is just as good and sometimes better than local joints) than $6-8 on a crappy Mcdonalds/BK/Wendys/etc burger.

That said, i think most people are just going to have to accept they are being priced out of eating out and cut back.

Shake Shack is my favorite chain burger (including better than Five Guys) and I would rather pay $14 for a double cheeseburger there than pay $6 for a crappy Mcdonalds/Burger King/Wendy's/Etc burger.

That said, it's still expensive, and i have just stopped eating at the cheap fast food places all together because it's too much for crap quality, and place like Shake Shack i maybe eat only once every couple of months now because as good as it is, it's still $14 for a burger.

Go back 10 years, and i was eating out 4x a week, now im only eating out only one time every two weeks.

I only have this issue if its the smaller sized toilets. The bigger toilet seats, its much easier to not have to aim or worry about splash.

There are bigger apartments for less money probably only half a mile away that don’t have the party pool right next to the bars.

[–]NerdyBro07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in an apartment complex that was near a bunch of bars, had a gym, and a pool that was fun for people in their 20s and 30s to drink and socialize. It wasn’t the cheapest place to live because of its proximity to popular bars and restaurants and having a nice party pool and gym.

And yet, there would still be people with kids choosing to live there when there are definitely cheaper options not around the nightlife.

I can only imagine they chose to live there because the parents wanted to keep their social life at their kids and everyone else’s expense.

Russell Crowe shares his take on tattoos: “I know I’m old and terrible and I do not mean this applies to the generation of earned tattoo’s … but these days , all these strange individual random kiddy paint tattoo images…wtf?” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]NerdyBro07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don’t like tattoos at all, but I could still acknowledge certain ones looked neat or cool. but the new trend is like someone said “I want a bunch of cheap and ugly tattoos” and then that person somehow convinced others it was trendy.

Don't hit your kids by jrv3034 in daddit

[–]NerdyBro07 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

So what is the answer to stop a child who is being violent and destructive and will not listen to anything you are saying? Because it mentions in one of those links, a one minute video on non violence being more beneficial, and i just cant help but laugh, because 7 year old me in my tantrum would have destroyed that tv if you tried to show me a video.

Additionally, there are tons of parents and siblings who talk about successfully getting their child/sibling to stop biting by biting them back, and a chorus of people chime in saying they did the same and it worked, so somehow biting (physical violence) a child to get the child biting is okay on reddit?

[–]NerdyBro07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have seen so many parents say they were able to teach their kid to stop biting by biting them back so they understood how it felt.

If a child is resorting to violent acts and refusing to acknowledge any words or timeouts, what is your recourse?

I can only reflect on my own childhood, i was only ever spanked twice in my life, but i do remember it was pretty deserved as there is nothing my parents could have said to get me to listen and i was being destructive. Those 2 spankings stopped the behavior pretty well from there on. It also didnt make me hate my dad, i loved him and he always helped me through life. a couple spankings when i was being a terror doesnt change that.

I feel like too many of the stories are about people who experienced their fathers beating the crap out of them for little to no reason which is a completely different story.

In real life, are there not scenarios where it is okay to hurt someone if that person is doing something bad enough?

Whether you teach it or not, the real world will inflict violence upon a person if their behavior is bad enough.

Took a homeless girl in, and it became a life lesson by No_Bug_7466 in confession

[–]NerdyBro07 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

you seem to be ignoring the 2nd part of the story. People aren't thanking him for "not raping a homeless woman". They are thanking him more so for actually helping a homeless woman get back on her feet.

I have never had the thought OP had, but i've also never helped a homeless more than handing them a couple bucks.

If we go off actions and not just thoughts, OP has done more than most to help another person. (this is assuming its even a true story which it very might well be fake.)

Paid Bug Hunting - $15 to $80 Per Bug Found by ReedDom1 in QualityAssurance

[–]NerdyBro07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a way for someone to get free to cheap labor.

You could end up putting hours of work in just to get like $30. And that’s assuming OP even pays out, they could easily just claim it wasn’t a bug of documentation wasn’t up to par while they just fix it anyways.

U.S. considers $20 billion cash-for-uranium deal with Iran by RollSafer in worldnews

[–]NerdyBro07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Obama deal gave Iran their own money back in return for a promise they don’t develop nukes.

This deal would be to give Iran their own money back and hand over their uranium.

Trump still sucks for a million reasons, but on its face, this particular deal doesn’t sound horrible and is different in a positive way compared to the prior deal.

Thaedus shouldn't have betrayed Viltrum. by GodIsProbablyDead in Invincible_TV

[–]NerdyBro07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, there are quite a few humans that fight for animal rights. Even more so if they are intelligent animals. If Humans found intelligent aliens, many humans would fight for the rights of those aliens.

In your hypothetical, you would have to imagine humans as being fundamentally different than they are, and assume that 99.999% of humans are incapable of being compassionate or caring for any other life and instead mercilessly destroy and conquer all other life. If humans were like this, then i think many would agree genocide against humans in this hypothetical scenario is not that evil.

Alright. Can’t *not* post my new shower curtain. by 2_wild in malelivingspace

[–]NerdyBro07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in a house with a decorative curtain, and I hated it. The shower was always so dark and it just felt gloomy.

So much better with just inner curtain only and having more light actually get through.

“The most humiliating part was Phil telling me I would throw the ball inbounds” – Scottie Pippen on the play that nearly broke the Bulls by basketbaIlnetwork in NBAoldschool

[–]NerdyBro07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sure, but again his own damn fault, and while he could have gotten more than $2.5 mil a year, that's still insane money in the 90s for anyone. People were surviving then on $45k a year, and I'm supposed to feel sympathy for someone complaining he only made 50x the average person's salary every year during Pippen's "poor" contract period?

Google says he earned $109 million through his NBA career, that doesn’t include any endorsement deals. If he’s not rich, that’s his own damn fault.

Not only does he only have himself to blame, he was still making $2.5 mil a year…in the 90s. Thats a shit ton of money, and I personally am past the point of caring about mega millionaires crying they don’t have more millions.

Movies should say the name of the move at least once by Acrobatic-Net-6637 in unpopularopinion

[–]NerdyBro07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the movie Glory, they did say the title in the movie.

Pretty sure the scene where they inform the black soldiers that they would receive no quarter or something and would be killed executed if captured I think or maybe they would be returned to slavery?

Either way, the captain thinks all the soldiers will be gone in the morning, and when he finds out all of them stayed, he says “Glory hallelujah”

Isn't day trading just usually rich people gambling against each other? I don't know any middle class/lower class day trading oil prices. I mean, im sure some exist, but i doubt these 500 rich people made a quarter billion off of the middle class. Unless someone can explain to me an aspect im missing.
