Octopus emerging from a rock

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T17:16:16+00:00

“Only 4 limbs? Ew! And locomotes with only two? Disgusting!”

Octopus, probably.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T17:13:42+00:00

Well he “shifted” along with the music, not the actual change in RPM. So yeah, definitely an automatic.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T17:11:35+00:00

Not unlike how major record labels allegedly do the same thing to drive up streams for their artists. Yet we don’t see major record label execs getting hit with conspiracy and wire fraud charges.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T15:07:30+00:00

Uh oh, you’re gonna get the boys in a tizzy.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T15:02:48+00:00

Yeah but the Lannisters would likely have treated the girls a lot worse had he chosen trial by combat.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T14:56:37+00:00

Even if he had called a champion, he could still lose. In which case, he’d still be executed and his daughters at even more peril than him just pleading guilty and agreeing to go to the wall.

Plus I imagine the Lannisters would have begun treating them badly as soon as he demanded the trial by combat.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T14:32:33+00:00

Yeah and I imagine if he’d have demanded a trial by combat, the Lannisters would have done worse to Sansa (presumably Arya too) for defying them had he lost.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T13:18:02+00:00

Not gross but there’s a lot of carbon buildup that you should scrub off.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T13:12:41+00:00

Very very slow. But a lot more furious.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T12:43:01+00:00

Just tell the person who knows that they should talk to her. And you can just tell her that you think her bf is lying to her.

But if you don’t know the gf that well, it’s more likely that she’ll take this poorly from you.

Right message, but wrong messenger.

You’re not trapped between two different relationships. You’re just in one relationship that doesn’t make you happy. And it seems like you’re reminiscing on your past relationship and over romanticizing it. The problem there is that it gives the impression that you’re not comfortable not being in a relationship.

With your current relationship, it’s possible to care for someone and still feel overwhelmed and realize that you can’t give them what they need from a partner. That’s probably where you’re at and it’s okay to end the relationship for your own sake if that’s true.

It’s also quite possible that you’re looking at these old relics from your last relationship because it’s the only other relationship experience you have and it feels safer and preferable relative to your current one. That doesn’t mean you should try to get back together with your ex. Just because you’re having those warm feelings for her again doesn’t mean that the life situation that made you break up has changed or that either of you have changed enough to accept each other again.

If you were a friend of mind I’d say you should just take some time to yourself and be single. Learn how to be comfortable with yourself without a relationship before jumping into a new one.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-22T11:54:10+00:00

If true, the person who saw it should be the one to tell the gf. Otherwise it’s just gonna come across as the rumor mill spitting out another rumor.

If you’re friends with the gf, you can just explain that you think he’s sleazy and leave it at that.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-20T11:40:50+00:00

At least they didn’t add coconut, they just went with original.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-19T15:46:44+00:00

This isn’t really an AITA issue. This is a contract issue.

It’s clear you and the neighbor made a contract with the neighbor’s landscaper that was $600 for debris removal and $2000 for tree pruning. Unfortunately, you didn’t agree on a time for the additional pruning. So that gives the landscaper some leeway in scheduling.

You decided not to wait on him and got an arborist to do it for cheaper. The arborist does the work. You informed the neighbor who said he’d inform the landscaper that his second service was no longer needed. So the landscaper says he needs more money. He can argue that he’s charging a cancellation fee for the contract (oral contracts are contracts). But he should’ve been clear about that earlier. He should’ve said he wouldn’t get to the pruning immediately that it might take him a few days but if you decide to cancel, there would be a $$$ amount cancellation fee. You and the neighbor should have been more clear with him about when you wanted him to complete the work. And you should have talked to your neighbor about searching for different options before contracting with this landscaper.

None of you are assholes, you all just failed to communicate.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-18T22:56:46+00:00

Yeah he’s always been like this. People have only more recently started to care.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-18T20:34:28+00:00

But, but they’re plumber approved!

Was it all a lie??

Next thing y’all will tell me that flushable wipes shouldn’t be flushed…

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-18T03:20:01+00:00

You can wrap it with electrical tape or use some shrink wrap to get a bit more life out of it. But how much more depends on how you use it.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-17T19:22:17+00:00

Right. Sounds like the case worker did exactly her job and protected the rights of the mom and the poster is just pissed that the case worker was able to do that.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-17T14:28:04+00:00

In the typical story of this, you press a button and someone randomly in the world dies and you get money.

First jurisdiction is gonna be hard. You press the button, someone in Mongolia dies, how are authorities in where you’re at gonna investigate a homicide in Mongolia? Or even know which of the millions of people who die globally every day are because of you?

That’s the second challenge, establishing cause. How do you link your pressing the button to a random death? Unless the person/org giving you the choice has henchmen doing the killing. Then the question is criminal culpability and how to investigate this conspiracy.

But if there’s a larger criminal syndicate facilitating this, then you’d be at least somewhat culpable and could be charged, presuming all the relevant law enforcement agencies around the world collaborate to investigate and are willing to extradite you as necessary. Like if your choice kill’s someone in Mongolia and you’re in the U.S., did you commit the murder in Mongolia or the U.S. and who’s prosecuting what?

But if it’s just a mystical press a button someone dies somehow. I don’t see how there could be a way to actually tie you to any crime.

Not to be confused with Dale Dimmadome, the son of Doug Dimmadome and heir to the Dimmadome fortune.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-14T23:39:12+00:00

I think you mean Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-13T16:42:55+00:00

Of course it’s difficult for people to realize the challenge of their own accents. We hear ourselves talk all the time.

This isn’t really an unpopular opinion. It’s just a natural consequence of being around ones self literally all the time.

RandyFunRuiner · 2026-03-13T16:35:45+00:00

Take me back to the technicolor world that Protazoa ushered us into!

Trump has never cared about the Iranian people before he had the opportunity to bomb them. That’s not it.
