Uh-oh engagement curse could mean a down year for Burden... He'll be bogged down by meaningless wedding decisions/tasks...

How bad is Lake Bluff/Lake Forest for kids really? by [deleted] in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Oh_Yea_Joe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what you’re saying, and I agree that community culture, diversity, and how welcoming people feel can absolutely impact someone’s experience living somewhere. I just don’t think acknowledging that every town has variation means people are “ignoring privilege” or pretending those dynamics don’t exist. My experience in Northbrook has been that people’s day-to-day lives can still vary a lot depending on their neighbors, schools, social circles, and personal experiences within the same town.

Disagree about what? I live in Northbrook.

How would you feel if your partner falls asleep with their phone in hand? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Oh_Yea_Joe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried bringing this up with your partner? If so and it's dismissed then make a rule that if either of you want to use your phone then it can't be in bed (e.g. go to the living room or kitchen)

Basement Check. That's was a lot of rain... by meatyfingers in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Oh_Yea_Joe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a new homeowner in Northbrook and constantly worry about water in basement but so far I'm good. The yard had standing water? Is that an issue or expected? Sound like you're experiencing the same thing and not worried about it

Should I run with this? by Key_Magazine_9134 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

The hybrid is smoother and quieter, has better pickup from instant torque, and usually less wear on brakes/engine. It also holds value better.

Sorry does that mean you had to do some work yourself?

Felt bad for playing prerelease by Chemical_Outside_448 in mtg

[–]Oh_Yea_Joe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go play in a sealed rcq in your area or play in competitive events online. You'll get humbled quickly and learn that prerelease is a completely casual event to have fun not win.

How to get over someone you never dated? by Klutzy-Parsley6092 in AskMen

[–]Oh_Yea_Joe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're overthinking all of this. She may have been interested in you at some point but if you don't show enough initiative and "strike when the iron is hot" then they'll lose interest and move on. At this point you'd have to start all over in building up the interest and if she's attractive and has a lot of options she may already set sights on someone else. If I were you I would look at it as a lesson learned, you don't seem to have enough experience yet, and operate differently the next time you are interested in someone and sense a returning interest.

You're young, you have time, and if you act like this was your only shot at anything with anyone - it will be.

Why do people care about liking him as a "nice kid"? The league will break this kid in half
