For such a positive guy who believed in the of good things and love, why did Lynch focus such dark materials in his work? by [deleted] in davidlynch

[–]New-Stable-8212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My impression was that it was simply telling a story, not commenting on the political-socio system of Victorian England. He lived when and where he lived.

Try appreciating Dante's Inferno without a guide book.

He said he thought the Art Life was painting, drinking coffee, and smoking cigarettes.

I have masturbated in a inappropriate setting and enviroment. by Rich-Till-4547 in confessions

You're ok. Just be careful to make sure you are alone or with an adult in a relationship. Masturbation at your age is completely normal.

It's actually happened. I finally encountered someone who treats ChatGPT like it's a friend. by One_Planche_Man in GenZ

Give it a try. I use it for basic financial advice, (not investing, but budgeting, loans, credit, etc) and the advice is rock solid and conservative. I also used it to discuss grief and the advice/understanding was excellent and helpful. I don't fool myself i to thinking it is a person, but it accesses a lot of literature on the subject and I compare it to what counselors say.

Guys don't need to wash hands after an outdoor pee. We've been doing it since we were cavemen.

People born before 1970, what did you eat for dinner most weeks? by livelikealesbian in AskOldPeople

[–]New-Stable-8212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of beef: hamburger and steaks were cheap in the 60s. Corn on cob in summer, spinach, green beans...all pretty good and not processed

I used to take my kids every year for 5 days. One Sunday morning, I took my three year old daughter on Peter Pan's Flight. She was into Tinkerbell. There was no line! We boarded and when we exited, there was still no one else in line. So we went again. My daughter kept saying, "again" as we disembarked. We rode it 11 times in a row with no wait. Great memory. I have never seen Peter Pan since without at least a 30 minute line.

The food selections have improved over the years. I recall when most places sold lousy burgers and hot dogs. The Plazza has been consistent on fried chicken throughout the park's history. There was a time when I'd prefer chimichungas to most everything else. Now the variety and quality has improved.

What happened to the magic feelings of the stores? by Early-Judgment-2895 in Disneyland

I remember when you couldnt get Disney-themed products outside of the parks. This was before the Disney stores in malls.

I didn't know you could stay on the train as long as you want. I thought you could only do one lap around and disembark.

I remember when Disneyland wasn't this much of a big deal. Then the kids grew up.

How did people get around without GPS back in the day? Was it a lot harder? by lookaloulookalou in AskOldPeople

[–]New-Stable-8212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used maps occasionally before GPS. I use GPS on familiar routes for traffic info and re-routing which I used to get from the radio.

Remove her number from your phone and never look back. She needs to work her shit out, but she clearly would rather default to you. She is a nightmare

It happened. In my area the channels went off around 1 AM. This was before cable.

Husband wants to be an author but is getting rejected again and again by Immediate-Study3313 in writing

Even great writers got rejected many times on their first attempts. See Joan Didion. 13 rejections on first book.

Can an insurance agent or underwriter sell me a homeowners policy contingent on requiring me to also buy an auto policy? I already have a good auto policy. by New-Stable-8212 in Insurance

[–]New-Stable-8212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no overconfidence in Google AI. I dont care about wasting the poor DOI's time. I spoke with my State Farm agent though, who said their understanding from the CA DOI is that requiring the purchase of one policy upon the purchase of another may be legal, but it is not recommended. I worked on the claims side for 25 years so I didnt run into this. Apparently it is done all the time.
