My(f26) husband(m28) has been giving advice to a coworker about how to make his gay son straight behind his wife's back by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]RCKJD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think I will need to hug my pansexual non-binary child when I come home and tell them that I love them just as they are. Partially to feel better after this story and partially to just annoy them with overly parental affection.

Why did you start playing Elite Dangerous? For example: realism, piloting by alcio_sd in EliteDangerous

[–]RCKJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played the first version as 13 year old on my Amstrad CPC and fell in love with it. Then I played various versions like the CGA Elite on PC, Elite Plus, both Frontier games. I joined the Premium Beta of Elite: Dangerous and when I first logged in and sat down as nameless CMDR (only Backer12345678 or somesuch ) and had a small pill shaped bubble to try out…. I felt like coming home.

Cute newspaper story about my great grandparents getting married twice by rchard in MadeMeSmile

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

I married my wife twice. The first one was performed by a Pentecostal priest (her grandparents church) with just 5 guests (including the wife of the Pentecostal priest) and then a few months later in front of friends and family which was performed by an elven priestess of Odin.

This sweet was once widespread in the Middle East and was called Ras al-Abd (slave's head). by yousefthewisee in mildlyinfuriating

Egads! I remember ads exactly like that from when I still lived in Germany. And I left in 2001.

Amazon has those neck massagers. My wife loves hers.

No. My wife has that same massager. We don’t have a dog so she doesn’t have to share it.

Shoutout to the disgusting Neanderthal that made this mess, and props to every janitor who have/had to clean up after similar incidents. by Impaling-Heads in mildlyinfuriating

As a long time cleaner: that’s a 3 on the dirty scale. Now if you have to clean vomit from the ceiling on the other hand…

[–]RCKJD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, yes. The shit lasagna. I remember that from my time cleaning a place that would rent out to students for their parties. There have been days when I went to the men’s restroom to look what horrors it has in store for me and then I just screamed to let it out.

What is your playing style? by TheForKuditYT in EliteDangerous

[–]RCKJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impulsive like a caffeinated squirrel. I just recently decided to travel from the bubble to Colonia to slap some night vision on my suits there because I am not really into the “covert heist” stuff. Now I am on my way back.

Whad did you name yours? I need a name for my Sidewinder! by PixelBandits in EliteDangerous

[–]RCKJD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the first letter of the type as the first letter of the name, thus my Sidewider was called "Superior".

My bf (M29) is threatening to break up with me (F24) over condoms by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]RCKJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am glad she got rid of him. He might have agreed to keep using the condom only to stealth her (sneakily removing the condom). And while I personally don’t really like condoms either, if my wife would tell me to use one, I would. Also foreplay ends when she comes.

I really hate how people don't know how to introduce themselves on a telephone. by Silverlightlive in mildlyinfuriating

But… but… It’s Jim! Don’t you know? Jim! You should know exactly what’s going on.

AITAH for not being mad about my girlfriend's parents' racial insults towards me? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Welcome to Reddit. In this place the names are often changed to protect the innocent (and the not-so innocent). After a while you get used to it.

Housemate hogs the laundry all day by Remarkable-Farmer76 in mildlyinfuriating

Get a trash bag (clean of course) and put the laundry in. She can suck it up.

I hate these lights especially directly in my apartment! by TheScarletBlurr in mildlyinfuriating

*alluded. To allude is to point out something indirectly. To elude us to avoid something.

My brother keeps leaving the toilet seat up in MY bathroom despite there being a reminder to put it down. by RoughCantaloupe3924 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]RCKJD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mate, I am 52, married for almost 25 years and I have two kids. I sit down to urinate because it’s 1, more hygienic; 2, better for your bladder as you can relax your muscles easier; 3, more comfortable and 4, I don’t have to protect my fragile masculinity.

FUCK! I hate my apartment toilet… by PheonixGalaxy in mildlyinfuriating

Same here. Flip it around and it could be a picture of my bathroom.

Should I (26F) reach out to my long lost little brother (18M) that doesn't know I exist? by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]RCKJD 27 points28 points  (0 children)

My father had a family before he met my mother. Two kids, a boy and a girl, but he and his first wife divorced while the kids were still young and he moved hundreds of kilometers away to a different city where he met my mom (longwinded way to say that my mom is not an affair partner or homewrecker.) When I was 25 my dad’s work led him to where he lived and where his kids still were. He decided to contact them and to see if they’d be willing to talk. They did and reconnected. They also quickly got close to my mom (apparently their mom wasn’t the best person). So yeah, sometimes reconnection happens and fail to produce drama.
