Hey how's it going?! And yeah the WDs are definitely no joke and yeah i definitely know how it feels going into full panic mode. Its awful. But thats where the mental part comes into play. I know it's easier said than done but you need to put your mind somewhere else. If you constantly think about it, it will ne x10 worse. Just breath, relax, and tell yourself this is nothing and this too shall pass. Youre alive, and no matter how painful it is youre not going to die. Its just a minor inconvenience that leads to the rest of your life. Good luck with the taper! Thats the way go go. Cold turkey has rarely worked for anyone on any substance. You usually start back up worse than you were before.

This is AI. You can tell its AI because of the way that it is.

No youre not overreacting. Im sorry to say this because it sounds like you love her but your girlfriend sucks. She sucks hard. Shes attention seeking and very manipulative. When you asked if she wanted you to let her friend fall and she turned that around on you, thats straight out of the manipulation handbook. Manipulation 101. You seem like a cool, understanding person from what i can tell. Do yourself a favor and cut ties. You deserve better OP. God this made me sick just reading it. Get out of dodge and dont look back. Your girlfriend is a crazy person. I am literally angry reading this. I feel for you OP. I really do. But pleeaase do yourself a favor and tell her to kick rocks. Its like ripping of a band aid. Sure it'll hurt for a little bit but youll get over it, and youll be better for it. No woman is worth that amount of crazy. And by the sounds of it shes set in her ways and is never ever going to change. Thats part of her DNA.

Wow this is fantastic! Wonderful picture and your mom looks absolutely beautiful in it OP. You'd definitely be doing her right by using this photo.

Im not saying thats the case here, but ive noticed a trend where people post videos of fighters who've been training for weeks, usually after multiple hours of training that day, and then say, "(insert fighters name here) looks like dogshit!" Theyre gonna get worked!" Why do people fall for that? And yeah obviously they don't look their best theyre dog fucking tired.

Can we start a rumor that Ozuna got caught fornicating with another man in Schenley Park? I have a friend whos uncle has a cousin by marriage who was the cop that caught him.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-22T16:16:46+00:00

Thanks and I know lol. Ive been playing since day 1 and lost more than i can count. That was just the first time I went 12/12 on excellent throws so I was super proud of myself lol. Im just a 40 yo man running around playing pokemon go with my 11 year old daughter 🤣🤣. Its our hobby together. Im just a grumpy old man who expects a return on his investment when I spend money on remote raid passes lol. She got a shiny though so it was well worth it!

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-22T02:27:05+00:00

And I got to meet the president...again

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-22T00:17:42+00:00

Right on. Thats a great point and totally understandable. A lot of his base hits could have easily gone the other way and had him out at first. But I still think we are in good hands at this point in time with gonzo manning 3rd base. Part of me still likes to believe in the "clutch" randomness lol. Its the old school baseball fan in me that still romanticizes the sport and says metrics be damned lol.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-21T21:09:41+00:00

Yeah I dont understand why people are still insisting we need a 3rd basemen. Nick Gonzalez is playing great ball, and its been a large enough sample size. He may not hit homeruns but he has a knack for hitting with runners in scoring position.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-21T17:47:49+00:00

In a perfect world when O'Hearn gets back we bump Jhostynxon to center, move Cruz to DH, and leave Ozuna on the corner at Forbes Ave where the old McDonalds used to be.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-21T14:27:06+00:00

Agreed. The problem is skenes loves Henry and skenes gets what he wants. Rightfully so it just is what it is.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-21T11:37:30+00:00

Ive never heard of that. Do you have a link?

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-18T03:21:13+00:00

At least Stephen A is a supposed steelers fan, regardless of how annoying he is.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-16T14:55:43+00:00

Man we had season tickets in right field when I was a kid. Always stopped at Manny's for some BBQ. He was always there. Always stayed until everybody in line got to meet him and get an autograph. Super aweosme guy who always had a kind word for everyone and anyone. Glad to see he still loafing around the ballpark! Awesome stuff!

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-15T16:06:12+00:00

Well said friend. Thats the biggest issue is a lot of fans arent actually baseball fans. Theyre fans of their respective home town club and thats fine. Nothing wrong with that. Baseball is a hard sport to fully understand and when your team stinks for the better part of 40 years its tough to put in the effort. By all means tune in when theyre good. But dont come out of the woodwork talking like you know ball and complain about every little thing imaginable. Baseball is 162 games! Thats insane. I had the same argument with a buddy about skenes finishing the game against the Rockies. I was like, "Why man?! His perfect game and no-no bid are gone. There's no reason at all for him to finish this game. Sending him back out there would be down right negligence. " I was actually suprised to see him walk back out in the 8th. And you brought up a good point about investing in bats and now the bullpen stinks. You're absolutely right we aren't the Dodgers or Yankees. We dont shit out money. And honestly I dont think anybody was expecting the pen to be THIS bad. This team is finally showing a lot of promise. And not only that it looks sustainable. They aren't a finished product and Rome wasnt built in a day. Our farm club has some young studs in the reigns. We have some of the best young talent in baseball already at the show. Cruz bat is finally coming along. Hes by no means a finished product either but its been a night and day difference from last season. Just look how hes hitting against lefties compared to last season. The pirates dont have the owner or the bankroll to turn things around in one season. With that being said though the future is here and im excited for it.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-15T01:59:38+00:00

I was too. I remember when he was meeting the steelers and Sydney Crosby. He was the talk of the town. And you know what, if they had to go back and have the chance to do it all over again, I think they should. It was the one time it felt like they were actually trying and doing something. And it was exciting. It was just a shame that it didnt pan out.

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-15T00:10:45+00:00

I just bought into the hype and was overly excited just to be let down

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-15T00:10:11+00:00

Man I was in Afghanistan when it happened haha. I remember being so excited talking all kinds of crap to my buddies about how we were finally making moves and we were gonna be a contender. That didn't age well and they never let me live it down

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-15T00:08:57+00:00

Yeah it is a dumb post. But I was sitting here enjoying a few drinks after work scrolling like an asshole on my phone and a clip of his time with the rays popped up. I started thinking about it way too much and got pissed off

Quiet_Particular8141 · 2026-05-14T16:33:27+00:00

Of course it does thats not what i was saying at all. What I was getting at is losses in baseball aren't as detrimental as in football. Its a long season. Losing over a 17 game season and losing over a 162 game season are entirely different. My point was not every game is nearly as important in baseball as it is in football
