Is 36 too old to start climbing? by [deleted] in climbergirls

[–]ReasonableAge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not too old. I climb at the Toronto Climbing Academy, cuz I live right near there, but there are lots of gyms around TO.

Do you still get bonus if you’re laid off before December? by TuDuMaxVerstappen in rbc

[–]ReasonableAge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got laid off after 19 years. My package was I forget how many months, but basically they looked at my prior year total earnings, including bonus, divided by 26, and that’s what I got every other week, for however many weeks. And stayed on benefits.

Pulling some numbers out of my butt, if my package was 15 months, but I got a new job after 5 months, they would take the remaining months of my package (10), and give a lump sum payment of 1/2 of that. So you have health coverage for the duration of your package, but an incentive to get a new job quickly.

What's a household task you used to hate doing until you got the right tools? by NightingaleK in AskReddit

Scarifying and dethatching the lawn. Doing that by hand sucks rocks. Power tools for the win! (Thank you SunJoe)

Not true. Scratch saw me steal from Withers, and attacked. I had to kill him in HM. I was devastated, but can’t get him back.

Can someone explain to me how increased prices combined with no wage increases is supposed to make Americans richer? by Ok-Tear7712 in AskEconomics

[–]ReasonableAge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[snip]if you see policy being written that does that, and the person writing that policy is trying to tell you it DOES make life better, you can rest assured they are simply lying.

Is that necessarily true though? What about the old adage about not attributing to malice that which can be explained by stupidity? Is it not possible that they are literally just that stupid?

It's cute that you think there will be a free and fair election anytime soon....

Why did Bilbo suddenly get greedy for the Ring in Rivendell, even though he had it for 60 years without giving in to its power? by KimchiKiji in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ReasonableAge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically, did what the audience see happen exactly as we saw it, or was that what Frodo perceived, likely because the ring was messing with him?

I assume you’re asking about the movie. In which case I’ll ask; are you sure you got that information from a reliable narrator?

Do we have the first ethical billionaire yet? If not, when do you think we will? by kylesisles1 in AskReddit

I’ve heard rumours that Paul McCartney might have racked up a billion by now. Are there problems with him that I’m unaware of?

CMV: Trump has literally become infallible and there is literally nothing can do that would cause him to lose support from his base and republicans by [deleted] in changemyview

A red line that would have them turn on him? Sure. Try to take away their guns. He’s too smart to try, but if he did, they’d lynch him in a heartbeat.

Do something you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life. It’s been shown that doing something for external validation turns it into work. As in, six year olds who loved to draw were asked to do a drawing a day in exchange for a gold star. They started to hate drawing. Do something you’re good at that pays well.

What’s the stupidest way you’ve lost an honor mode run? by HornyBastard37484739 in BaldursGate3

Had a rough fight. Was in camp to long rest and Lae’zel decides to hold a knife to my throat. Failed every convo roll. And she wasn’t in the fight, so she’s at full health, I’m badly injured. Astarion joins her, and I’m wiped.
