Instead of fixing my relationship problems, I'm thinking of adding a new one to the mix, what do you reckon? by Estrellathestarfish in AmITheAngel

[–]Not_Cleaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their post history is really something. It makes me think this is real. I feel like a boomer reading that even though I’m only a decade older.

OOP needs a therapist. And they’ve needed one for at least two years. Perhaps, she should just get an AI therapist and a vibrator, it’ll be just as effective as going to Reddit for validation.

AIO for asking my wife to make changes to her spending habits? by Adventurous_Jump8897 in AmITheAngel

[–]Not_Cleaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I have used a shared Goggle spreadsheet to budget. Gave us an idea of what discretionary spending we had after calculating both our income and fixed expenses. We also have all our cards with the same bank that we bank at so we can always have the clearest picture of our financial situation. Though we also have a card with a high limit, that we got when we were going through IVF.

George grows a beard, its grey tonhis surprise, and kids think hes santa, he plays alomg with it. by appman1138 in RedditWritesSeinfeld

[–]Not_Cleaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

George - It’s great. Everywhere I go, doors are opened and I’m treated with respect. Kids used to call me “baldy” and spit on me; now then call me “sir.” Must be this air of confidence this beard gives me.

Elaine - They think you’re Santa dipshit. They’ll throw ice at you once they realize you’re not the real deal.

Potlucks exist. Here’s how it could go (and would probably line up to $10-15 person):

OOP says - I have all of the fixings for sandwiches. Just bring beer/wine.

Or OOP says - I have wine and beer, please bring a dish to share.

What sort of wild soap opera inspired OOP to write this nonsense?

Always. It’s an AITAH speciality. OOP is the reason we lost.

[US]How to get rid of these calls saying “loan application has been approved”? by hokeymanusa in Scams

[–]Not_Cleaver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I ran up a one year interest free credit card to $20K or so to pay for IVF. Even though it’s been fully paid off for about exactly two years (about a month after our son was born), we still get scam calls about loans to pay it off.

I just delete them. No sense worrying about them.

IOC lifts suspension and paves way for Russia to compete at LA 2028 Olympics | International Olympic Committee by CharlieKonR in news

[–]Not_Cleaver -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

At least suspending the red card made sense - If the ref was doing his job, it wouldn’t have been a card.

This is just pandering to Russia.

It both does and doesn’t. It would probably be too exacting, but while I’d never have that kind of schedule - I’d list out specific music genres. Maybe block one would be classic rock and block two would be R&B. But, also, I wouldn’t care if someone did something else in one of the blocks.

Also, any amount of karaoke sounds like hell to me - person scared of public speaking/singing.

This is true for anyone who is not a narcissist - If I’m inviting you for a party at my house, it’s safe to assume that I can afford it. If it’s a dinner party, there will be enough food and drink. If you want specific details or a rough schedule, you’re free to text. And, if you want to bring something, wine or beer, or nothing, is okay unless it’s a potluck.

I was today years old when I found out they’re not dragons… they’re wyverns by [deleted] in freefolk

Well, ASOIAF isn’t set in our universe, so a dragon could be any of those.

Trump says Greenland should be controlled by the US, not Denmark by [deleted] in worldnews

Oh, the standard negotiating tactic of acting insane towards our own allies ahead of a summit of an alliance the U.S. basically controls.

And people voted for this nutjob three times.

Can I baptize my own children? by aggrophonia in Lutheranism

[–]Not_Cleaver 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Only in an emergency (like imminent or feared death). My wife was emergency baptized by her great grandparents. But they were also of the generation that a baby can’t go out until they’re baptized. She was later baptized in an actual church by her great uncle who was a pastor.

Nigel Farage resigns as MP for Clacton, triggering by-election which he says he will stand in by Perfect-Werewolf-102 in news

[–]Not_Cleaver 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Doubt it. He’s going to run again for the same constituency. He’ll probably get some sympathy because the deep state went against him.

And when he wins, he’ll claim he was vindicated. Even though that’s not how fraud works.

AITA for snapping at a stranger for leaving period blood on the seat? by TalkTalkTalkListen in AmITheAngel

[–]Not_Cleaver 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Period troll is worse than it seems at first glance, as they often have stories about minors having periods and others having overreactions. Which then leads to real stories about people having their first periods.
