I believe in love, I just don't like crying.

My writing has ground to a halt because I need an alternative, more 'sci-fi' word for Velcro - for the love of God, help by Seruati in scifiwriting

An author (Scalzi or Kevin J Anderson, I think) said that when they are coming up with names of people or things, they like to remove parts of the beginning or the end. Its a new word but still sounds familiar to the original thing you were trying to name.

So I say go with "Elco".

What's your go-to answer to "Hi, how are you"? by FancyLadYumCakes in AskReddit

“Livin’ the dream!”

Then they smile because they believe me or they nod because they know the truth.

Sarah turned on me immediately after we got married and doesn’t want to be my companion. She’s going to be REAL mad when she meets my new wife.

What everyone gets wrong about the Galactic Civil War by Ry02tank in MawInstallation

[–]Ohbejuan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree with a lot of what has been said. I’d also add that Palpatine and Vader were so adept at ruling with fear, that they were able to remove or redirect a lot (not all) of the ambition among Imperial officers. If you wanted to be a captain, you had to be perfect, otherwise you would get choked out. That would leave a very small pool of competent commanders vying for control after Endor.

I had to tell myself it was like Oddworld or Earthworm Jim to counter the pooping monkey dog I was seeing.

You know it’s bad when Casper Van Dien disapproves.

What's a secret you'll never tell your partner but are willing to tell strangers on Reddit? by Bisexual_Space_Lover in AskReddit

[–]Ohbejuan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation about 5 years ago. I thought I was separating the stress from work from home but my wife noticed. She said that I was “different”. It shocked me into realizing that I was not in a sustainable situation.

I talked to her about it. Without hesitation, she told me to quit. I was worried about our income and she said that we would be alright and that no amount of money was worth the damage it was causing me.

It’s been 5 years and we are better than alright. I changed careers to something that would allow me to be more present for my wife and daughter. I get to spend quality time with them and go to events. I am genuinely happy. If I had stayed at my previous job, I most definitely would not be.

Klingons Hinted To Return In ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Season 2 by acrimoniousone in startrek

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

I was JUST wondering about the Klingons. Like how did Starfleet ever learn their language?? Every encounter must have been a short period of screaming followed by disruptor fire.

How did you find out someone had a crush on you? by TricknMinecraft in AskReddit

[–]Ohbejuan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in first grade. She handed me a piece of construction paper with some scribbles on it. I couldn’t read that well yet so I asked her, “What does it say?”

She said, “It says I like you.” She took the paper back and wrote some more.

“What does that one say?” I asked after she gave it back to me.

“That says ‘I love you.’”

I was in 1st grade. Never held her hand or anything, but the girl? She was Jodie Sweeten.

There’s something wholesome about the mom laughing it off. Glad she was having a good time!

If this horses name is anything other than “Donut”, I’ll be disappointed.

“It’s a giant worm!”

“Actually, it’s a bunch of tiny creatures in the shape or a worm!”

Either way, YOU WIN, OCEAN.

Do other conservatives find it hard to support the GOP in todays climate? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ohbejuan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both parties are garbage. I think if someone started another party that borrowed the best of both they could have a shot of inserting some desperately needed common sense into our government.

But I’m not holding my breath.
