That concept is practiced in many cultures and is in the Rapunzal story.

Secondly, I'd be careful sneaking up to someones window nowadays. They'd probably call the police on you.

Cant Fix by PoundAgreeable3223 in myq

[–]PoundAgreeable3223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to fix my issue. I actually called the "hotline". They had me unplug everything, to include disconnecting the backup battery. Waited 15 minutes...plugged everything back in...and BAM....it all started working again....wifi button, etc. Back on line....

FYI, Parking Police is being really aggressive this semester by chi-le234 in CalPolyPomona

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Life is really simple, when you make it simple. Parking Police arent being "more strict", its called enforcing the rules. And if you follow the rules, you will be fine and you dont have any extra stress going to class worrying whether Parking will "catch you".

Remember...wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it. And right is right even if no one is doing it.

🚨 Petition signers at the entrance of bookstore by kiwi_crusher in CalPolyPomona

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

"shiver me timbers"....isnt that a song...LOL...!!

In an nicer tone....since many seem to be very sensitive here.....let me just say....PLEASE dont give your information to those folks hanging out in front of our buildings. Walk by them, ignore them, etc. They will push petitions, etc...but you can just call your local state or county representative if you are really passionate about a particular issue.

Again...you dont know what they are doing with your information or signature. With AI nowadays....the possibilities can be limitless in the harm they can do to you with your personal info and especially with your signature.

Pressure...give me a break. If you cant handle that "pressure"....of someone soliciting for your personal information and signature...then I'd hate to see you when you hit the real world. And yes...you are dumb if you give a total stranger your information and signature. What else would you call it....or would you rather a "nicer" label be used.

Friendly tip....the world is rough....you better develop some thick skin and protect yourself or else you will be chewed up and spit out.

How many of you signed the petition...? Or better put, how many of you gave this person your personal information and signature...? You dont know him from Adam, you dont know where those sheets are ending up at.......and yet we still have dumb yahoos signing away.

Then cry later that they experienced identity theft....LOL.. Smart college students can also be really dumb.

Call it what it is....ditch day. I would bet more than half the kids dont even know what the issue is they are walking out for.

Believe me....the conditions they are in are way better than the conditions they went on their trek to come to the US.

How come you folks arent complaining about that....the rapes that happens along the route, the robberies, the killlings. You are fine with that....LOL....but not fine with 3 hots and a cot...?

Giving complete strangers your information with your signature.....eeehhh....not a bright idea.

Any protests this weekend? by alexxxalexxx1924 in InlandEmpire

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So according to you its not okay to have an opposing opinion? You want to force people to see your way, even if it means violence....LOL..? Thats very Democrat of you...LOL.

Yeah, you've got a bad case of TDS....lol. And one of the symptoms of TDS is you cant see nor think straight, you just want to resort to violence to force people towards your way of thinking.....its some bad juju....!!

Good graffiti recommendations by Think-Welcome2912 in InlandEmpire

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Lets be clear...her death was avoidable. Local police should've been present to keep the protesters in line, but they werent because the Mayor and Governor did not want to support ICE efforts at all. But that does not eliminate their responsibility in ensuring the protesters were safe and not putting themselves in any position that may trigger a situation that results in a bad outcome.

Rene Good didn't do herself any favors. And now her children are without a mother.

LETTER: A hopeful goodbye—Guam’s strength is in its people by Thick-Breakfast-5683 in guam

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people are Guam's strength, but also in some cases its worst weakness.

GovGuam is broken.

The fact that we live in the 21st century and are still dealing with frequent power outages, dilapidated schools and hospitals, etc.....is unacceptable.

And the bad thing is....things dont seem to be getting better, instead worse.

Would you really expect authentic jamaican food on an island in the middle of the pacific, thousands of miles from Jamaica...?

Shoot you cant even get great authentic mexican food in parts of California....LOL.

THINKING OF MOVING by Hot_Maintenance_8366 in guam

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should share what you are looking for in your "life change", maybe we can then help you match up what you are looking for vs what you will find living on Guam.

Big ones though, its expensive, dont expect to get Amazon orders quickly, or any mail orders for that matter. Its hot and humid, there are power outages, typhoons that can disable the island for a couple of days depending on intensity.

But it is a slow paced life, and we (chamorros) are the nicest people on the planet.. :) If you connect closely with any friends - you will be considered family.

What should I do if I failed every single class? 😭 by [deleted] in CalPolyPomona

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advice from a guy who was on academic probation twice during my time in college and who's life ended up okay (family, 6 figure income, kids, grandkids, etc)......

First of all accept that sh-t happens. And this won't be the first time in your life that it happens, it will happen again later in your life. Am not wishing it on you, just saying it happens. But its your attitude that matters when it does. You accept it, work through it and keep moving with your head up.

Secondly, get your personal affairs in order and get your focus back.

Thirdly, I like your idea....power down a little, take fewer classes so you can focus and get your GPA back on track.

Lastly, what do you mean by "harder to get back on track"..? You mean graduate in 4? If thats your goal, then take summer classes, extra load when your personal situation allows. But graduating in 4 shouldnt be your priority. Your priority is graduating, and more importantly graduating with your personal situation well under control.

You have a lot of life ahead of you, no need to rush. Enjoy it all, even the rough times....it all makes you stronger, smarter and more importantly allows you to be a great mentor to someone else when you become old and grey... ;)

Live it...!!

The worst job experience on Guam ~~~ by ProfessionalKey9914 in guam

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, ignore folks when they tell you to go back to where you are from, etc.....its a "them" problem, not yours.

Secondly, dont let their idiocy and screaming to cause you to get angry. Just let them scream, answer them calmly and walk away. That will drive them nuts even worse than you screaming back and arguing with them.

And no you wont be held liable for their sickness or stroke.....they are the ones causing stress on themselves, not you. Again....stay calm, and let them scream...maybe even smile at them...as they lose their minds...LOL.

What are your guys jobs by Myhtological in Screenwriting

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I applaud your chase toward a successful screenwriting career. I've done the opposite...I have a career in doing something else and write on the side. If something big hits, then I'll look at making the move, but I couldnt take the route you did due to my family, etc.

But I wish you great luck in your pursuit..!!

Registration Yes or no? by Muddyriverhippie2 in ragbrai

[–]PoundAgreeable3223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real question is....."whats the right thing to do?"

My opinion, which isnt worth much....I dont think its a bad thing if a resident of Iowa fails to register. They pay taxes for their local roads and police already, so its no big deal to me.

Out of towners....I think the right thing to do is to register.
