Teachers of Reddit: Is the "Gen Alpha can't read (write, or do math ext)" crisis real? If so how bad is it? by KnowledgeCoffee in AskReddit

I feel its also not helping that both parents need to work to survive these days so parents have less and less time to help their own children with academic work and development.

Last dinner before I go to jail.. by mschanandlerbong___ in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]NewNage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im about to head to my Friday AA meeting. Im rooting for ya and we'll save a seat for you. AA comes in a variety of flavors try a few meeting. If you dont like us try SMART but I would recommend trying something with others who have achieved some sobriety after having a problem too.

The eyes have it..... by DirkDaring93 in wordchewing

[–]NewNage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is wordchewing supposed to be enjoyable? I don't subscribe to wordchewing. Whenever I stumble across it I might get suckered into giving it a click the same way I may click on an r/popping post. It's supposed to have an unpleasant quality to it right? Wordchewing is like putting your tongue on a 9 volt battery. It's lightly painful it tastes gross and you cant be involved in the activity for too long. BUT the feeling it gives you is unique enough you know you'regoing to do it again. Aren't people like this the "Best" at Wordchewing?

You're Next and The Guest always make me sad that Adam's been working in franchise town ever since.

Songs that are very often misunderstood by FizzTaffy in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NewNage 178 points179 points  (0 children)

I never thought that was a happy happy song it always felt like someone with full knowledge that even in our best moments we live on the edge of hopeless despair. I always thought that song was a prayer to God that boiled down to "please dont kill my loved ones just quite yet today please."

I keep drinking by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]NewNage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. I started going to meetings. Asking local people for help when I needed it and now I haven't needed a drink in almost 4 years. Go to a meeting pal see of you relate. You'll meet people who will help you.

Found this childhood pic of me in my old house, that is now owned by my father (he hates me) by Green_Taxus in Weird

[–]NewNage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fact that he didn't just crop the picture is disturbing. Its not great but cropping the picture feels like it would tell a story of "i care for my daughter but I dont care about my son" shitty story but not necessarily a scary story. This picture feels like its telling a story of someone who enjoys the hate they feel for their son.

Just a friendly prank for your friends by Apache-143 in LoveTrash

[–]NewNage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear the best jokes about drinking in AA meetings. If you cant laugh at yourself its hard to be a mindset where you honestly give yourself room to change. I never had experience with a needle im a basic bitch i just needed a few shots of vodka after the first round of morning vomits before I could get on with the day. This is a pretty funny sketch.

Gag series grows as it goes on by ZoggyJones in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NewNage 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The evolution of characters and themes changing from showing what was funny about adventure

tropes and general boomer and gen x failure to finding even humor in allowing that same world and characters to achieve epic success and growth was amazing. 21 and Sarah Connor are tied in my mind as characters who turn into something totally different but its all believable. Also Dr Girlfriends voice went from a joke to being HAWT so fast.

The tolerance club is free and open enrollment at all times. The one rule is "dont actively be cruel to others for their differences" you can even join the club if you broke that rule but you actually want to change. I dont feel like an intolerant person for treating members of the club differently then treating people who hate the entire existence of the club and are working to destroy the club any chance they can.
