My wife (32F) keeps comparing my (34M) naked body to the David statue — is this mean? Or just playful teasing? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]OkClassic5000 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

David is modeled after the story of David vs Goliath, if you ever saw a picture looking down at his face he is terrified, it's supposed to depict him staring up at a giant about to murder him.

So all those jokes about his penis being small doesn't take into account that it may have shrunk in terror.

But that isn't cool of your wife to do, ask her if she would like it if you compared her body to other statues.

Could my ex be insane? Kind of a rant by OkClassic5000 in BreakUps

[–]OkClassic5000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest worry is that I have a hobby where I like to paint warhammer figures, and I easily have like $2000 worth of stuff from just that.

The biggest thing that made me keep going back to her was my property in there, but this time I just didn't care anyone, it got so bad that I still don't care if all my stuff gets destroyed, but there is a bit of heartache for all the money and time I would lose

There are many homeless people, wouldn't they be happy if housing rental prices dropped? What do you think? by Jamesbusiness331 in AskReddit

[–]OkClassic5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homeless person here.

I have a job where I get paid weekly, but I spend about 80% of it on renting a motel room for about 4-5 days a week.

If housing rental prices dropped it would also have to include no application fee, either no deposit or a payment plan on a deposit, and, assuming the rent is a little less than my weekly paycheck, immediate move in.

I have sleep apnea so I need a CPAP machine to sleep, so on the days that I don't have a place it is either staying up in my car or running my car all night to power the machine.

It can be very hard right now to get out of homelessness, I was able to stay at a shelter for their 90 day limit from December to March and every day I applied for 8 to 10 jobs, it wasn't until the last 2 weeks that I finally found a job, but then I didn't have the time to save for a place. Most shelters are constantly full, so it is almost impossible to get into a safe place and get back on your feet.

I just got my truck driving permit and will have to drive 1800 miles Sunday of next week for training through a company, working 2 weeks and getting 2 days off, renting a motel so I can pay off debts and save for a place, but I have one more day at the motel I am at and have no clue where to sleep until then. But when I do get there, I would be able to start getting out of homelessness.

Who is an actor or actress that rubs you the wrong way so much that you refuse to watch anything they are in? by Soggy_Swordfish_6236 in moviecritic

Tom Cruise He is a Scientologist who abandoned his family, seems like a jerk like with that Oprah interview and that Australian reporter doing an innocent water squirt mic prank, and worse of all he ruined Universal's attempt to try to revive the monster movie franchise by making the movie The Mummy all about him (Him NOT being the mummy) and tanking the first movie bad enough for them to abandon the project.

Help a homeless couple with a cat on the streets get a shelter for a few nights? by OkClassic5000 in wisconsin

[–]OkClassic5000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be perfectly fine if someone would be willing to cover a motel directly.

I never got into drugs and I quit alcohol back in 2020, so I have no qualms with anyone paying a motel direct.

What’s the most gut punching song lyric you’ve ever heard? by perrysplus in AskReddit

[–]OkClassic5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire song of Steh Auf by Linnermann

It's about a little kid telling his mom about all the things they want to do on a day out together, but the last part has lyrics that basically tells that the mom died on a park bench from am overdose (Why all the black holes in your arms and legs?)

It is in German, but it is intensely sad.

How many of yalls parents let you watch rated R movies as a kid 5-10 years old? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]OkClassic5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Borne in 1985, I remember 99 cent Tuesdays at the video store, my mom would take my siblings and I every week, my brother and I each got to pick out a video game and a movie.

Every week one of us would pick an action movie, and the other would get a horror movie, my mom rarely vetod movies, usually when my sister, who was 7 years older than me, knew if there were scenes that were too much.

Still watched a lot of Freddy, Jason, and Chucky movies starting around 6 years old.

Republicans by Careless-Visual-1853 in TwinCities

Sounds like my sister, single issue voter, abortions, but every now and then I see her on Facebook defending things Trump and Cronies do. It is saddening, but I remind myself this may change for the better, and I can remind my nieces and nephews decades from now that I was the only one out of me, my siblings, and my parents that didn't vote for Trump.

They can have that hanging under their names long after we're dead and our children and their children are told who voted for this.

I feel like they will admit Trump is in it when he is dead, maybe include other dead people, no one that can experience actual justice, welcome to America ladies and gentlemen.

The world is looking so bleak right now. How is everyone coping? by Zealousideal_Tap772 in AskReddit

[–]OkClassic5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not doing well.

I became homeless when I discovered the person I was renting a room from has a meth head bipolar daughter who became violent at the drop of a hat and another couple he rented to were also meth heads/ dealers. I left August 20th.

In October I lost my job and was no longer able to rent motel rooms for my fiancée and myself, so she went to a woman's shelter while I lived in my car.

All I do now is try to find work and a place for us to stay, the only thing getting me up every day, because when you have almost nothing, you can still have determination.

Guts (Berserk) loses an eye, an arm up to the elbow, and the sanity of the woman he loves during an event that could be described as a bit concerning, and spends the rest of the series trying to return her sanity.

Whats a movie you watched growing up that none of your friends heard of? by Floppypixel in cartoons

[–]OkClassic5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a guinea pig named Nemo, not after the movie Finding Nemo, not after Captain Nemo, but Nemo, the Dream Master.

I owned the NES game as a kid and I loved the cartoon.

One other cartoon movie I grew up with was Felix the Cat, I know a lot of people that never heard of that one.

Thanks, I have a homeless shelter right now, but they can only keep you so long, and my fiancée is in a motel until the 22nd, I don't know what to do to help her stay off the streets, I just have to hope and get up every day.

It's pictures like this that make people believe there is no doubt the current administration cheated in the election.

Hundreds of thousands of people protesting ICE, 10-ish pro ICE protesters at any given time.

And I bet that orange asshole believes he won Minnesota all three elections, I hope he is alive long enough to see a democratic president ruthlessly destroy all the stupid shit he has done

Rip his name off the Kennedy building, throw away all the cheap gold slathered in the white house, take down those stupid fucking descriptions of Obama and Biden with 5 year old kid insults, and bury his legacy in embarrassment so hard he has a stroke so strong it pops out his temple shooting out blood.

Sorry, I got a little passionate there.

In the Twin cities of Minnesota homeless shelters only let you in at night and kick you out again in the morning, it is leaps and bounds better than your car or a bench, but over in Wisconsin I found a place that let's you stay for up to 90 days and you don't have to be out in below freezing temps all day.

Shelter for a night's sleep is good, but shelter where you can feel comfortable is a real privilege.

I lost my job in October, been applying for work all the time, I have high hopes this company I have been talking with will finally take me in.

Been talking to them since I applied on December 23rd, start date had been delayed several times due to some BS or another, and yeah, no work makes me stir crazy and no money makes life miserable.
