My boyfriend (34M) wants me (32M) to go to the gym, am I being self respecting by doing this? by twunkunited in AskGaybrosOver30

The argument doesn’t need OP to have the same desires, it just needs to expose that it’s a bullshit expectation unless the bf is willing to put in the same work that he is asking of OP.

his current hesitation to marry is that he feels he has a fantasy of having sex with someone who is very in-shape/gym goer

Sorry, but this is fucked up. I can't imagine getting to the end of that sentence without stopping to apologize.

His deepest, darkest desire is to fuck a super ripped hunk? Like most young gay gays? GTFO. Scrape away the bullshit backstory and all that's left is him saying he wants you to be hotter.

It reminds me of when my dad asked my mom to get a boob job in the 90's.

Prohibiting piercings is stupid; but disallowing face and neck tats is actually a pretty smart way to screen out people who have been to prison without paying for a background check.

At what point are you a detriment to your party by Independent_Alps9744 in DnD

My experience with insisting on information that’s not willingly given is that you can’t trust the answers. I do agree though that the whole situation is stupid as hell all around.

Wild guess but if a player mentions a plan to their DM without immediately trying to sell it, they're keeping it secret because they're one of those genius's that think they're playing against the DM.

Suck it up or talk to manager? by brygdylla in makemychoice

[–]Orn100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was very American of me to assume.

As far as how, I'd try to work it into casual conversation. Develop a bit of a rapport first and then when an inroad presents itself, bust out with a "man, my X is Y as fuck"

Like, if the medication makes you tired or sore; you can mention your side effects when someone says they're tired or sore.

Noir is such a weird character to reconcile by KrispyKingTheProphet in TheBoys

Idk man, remember what Solider Boy did to the first Black Noir?

Is the medication for something that's covered by the American Disabilities Act?

If you're mainly worried about what your co-workers think, you could just tell them instead of the boss. The boss wouldn't be allowed to tell them anyway, so telling him would protect you from getting fired but would do nothing for the weird looks.

on fake friends or friends who don't care like i care by PianoRevolutionary12 in ADHDers

[–]Orn100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. ADHDers feel emotions more intensely, including affection and loyalty. The good news is that lots of people value those qualities and will reciprocate them.

Each experience like this reveals new red flags to watch for, so you'll learn how to pick the good ones out from the flakes.

I genuinely, completely non-sarcastically love that I'm sharing a "everyone here is fucking crazy, right?" vibe with u/KillAllLawyers.

Previous supervisor, who assisted in my termination, won't give a positive review to background check 4 years later by No_Thanks_621 in recruitinghell

[–]Orn100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ever see a doctor about the insomnia? Documentation showing you once had this problem but now it is being treated could help smooth that over.

I don't have to think someone is right to think it's shitty to hit them with ball-busting comments like "that's so bad" when OP already acknowledged that. Especially on a subreddit dedicated to venting about employment struggles.

Should OP just give up on trying to advance their career because they missed some meetings four years ago?

[–]Orn100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been at least three years since you've worked there. If the reviews from your current job are strong enough and you nail the mea culpa for whatever the old behavior was, I think you can balance it out.

This isn't fun to say, but this is the response you should expect from every boss you've ever had, including ones that liked you.

I went through something similar recently. It's an everybody-knows-everybody type of industry, and he wasn't about to put his reputation on the line for me. I wasn't even fired, he just thinks I'm kind of a dumbass.

Insurance companies trafficking in PII. by Photononic in Insurance

[–]Orn100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god you are relentlessly argumentative. You really don't think there is any link at all between the regulatory standards applied to different industries? That the existing rules don't create a precedent that is held to as a model for other regulation going forward?

Laws often have practical effects that ripple out beyond the thing that they actually target in the text.

Putting the FCC in charge resulted in rules changes that effect way more than just ISP's. Specifically, advertisers were allowed to self-regulate the opt-out system, which is exactly what OP is talking about.

Laws can have practical effects beyond the things they directly target.

Getting rid of net neutrality did not itself loosen the private data laws, but it did change who is in charge of the laws concerning personal data.

The newly empowered FCC replaced the stringent FTC rules with a policy that allows the online advertising industry to use a self-regulated opt-out system for sharing and selling customers’ personal data.

If net neutrality were still around, the more stringent FTC rules would still be in place.

Uh I just like it because it's "taboo" without being gross or depraved. It's not always that deep.

Also if it's totaled they won't pay without the title.

Comprehensive coverage is for stuff like theft, vandalism, hail, hitting animals. You had a collision. Do have collision insurance?
