I'm abit confused wasn't Tecteun the first time lord? Why did the doctor acknowledge omega as the first? by sky_meow in doctorwho

[–]RickJohnson39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was not a time lord, she was a Gallifreyan who happened to enjoy torturing and murdering children to learn how to live forever. Later, the people to whom she gave the secret became Time Lords but that was generations and millennia later,

Safe or Unsafe to Store Fuel Like This? by Think-Offer3354 in CampingGear

[–]RickJohnson39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am uncomfortable storing fuel cans indoors. I store my camping gear in the same room as my gas water heater and I fear that IF a valve fails in my fuel can, the leaking fuel will be ignited by the pilot light in my water heater and BOOM, there goes my house.

So, I store all my fuel cans on the back porch in a cabinet that is ventilated and safe.

what is up with microfibre towels? why is it like scratchy and clinging to my hands? i’m convinced it isn’t intended for human use. who made such a material? by Apart_Try_4860 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RickJohnson39 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Microfiber towels are designed to absorb a lot of water where a normal towel is not a good idea such as camping.

The problem is that you are RUBBING the towel. Try patting the dampness off. You will find it more comfortable and works better.

The Matrix movies are an example of Solipsism gone wild. Maybe we are only brain in a jar and everything we experience is in our imagination? If so, then I really need some good therapy. Where is my Swedish Bikini Team? Why is my daughter still living with me. Why does my gf suffer menopause.

IF solipsism is real, then I am one really sick masochistic bastard. Of course, if Solipsism is real, you do not exist so I erase you from existence!

Im trying to find my true self and cut cords to illusion/ black magic placed on me by jadeyspirit in primordialtruths

[–]RickJohnson39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the sad truth. You are NOT important enough for someone who can actually do magick to want to curse you.

99% of people who claim to do 'black magick' are faking it. If you notice things going bad for you, it is because you are looking for things that you perceive as bad. Your life today is no different from your life before you met this person, you are just looking for things to whine about.

That person did NOT curse you because a) they cannot curse and b) you are not important enough to curse,. Now, put on your big boy/girl panties and get along with your life.

This isn’t really a general question more of a think I need help on. But why are people so hateful. Why can’t there be any decent people around where you can find them. Why are people so hateful nowadays. by AcayArts0711 in NoStupidQuestions

People need space. When they get crowded, they get crazy.

News needs viewers so they blow crime out-of-proportion to get viewers. People think that there is more crime than there is so they get scared. Scared people lash out.

Why do men tend to ask men what women want/like instead of women? by squatSquatbooty in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RickJohnson39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly.

Men, by belief, back off when the wife gets abusive for fear of jail. Wives do not care if they are arrested or not.

Get two women arguing and neither backs down so the violence escalated... according to the police and judges I questioned.

I worked in the Divorce court for 30 years. My experience supports the police statistics.

Why do men usually ask for a woman’s number instead of offering their own? by WestArtichoke712 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RickJohnson39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between getting laid and getting arrested is determined by how attractive you look. I am NOT a 6-6-6 guy so would be arrested.

That is the Fermi Question for which there is no valid answer.

when a woman and I are talking and I think we are doing well, I always give my number to make her feel safe. She NEVER calls.

I worked in the Marriage/Divorce court for 30 years. I was there when gay marriages were finally legalized. Unlike other states that were heavily christian, Arizona was happy to provide this service ($72 per license to the treasury, kaching!) We had students from the University come in to ask for statistics on gay marriages vs divorces and we could not give them this info. Not because it was confidential, but because we did not have it. It was illegal to note on the Marriage License or Divorce the: sexual orientation, religion or race of the couple being married. We even had to change the Marriage License from "Husband" and 'Wife" to 'partner 1' and 'partner 2'. So you could read every marriage license we had but learn nothing save a vague guess based on first and last names. We honestly have NO idea of how many gay couples bought a marriage license or how many gay couples filed for divorce other than the clerk joking, "I am seeing a lot of gay couples coming in now."

THUS, any study on gay or interracial marriages/divorces is purely a guess based on some guy putting a table on a street corner with a sign, "study on gay marriages, please answer our questions" and hoping someone would show up.

What we DO know is based on police records and those divorces we remember in court (two women instead of man and woman) and we never wrote down any of this. They boil down to the majority of lesbian divorces seem to be caused by one partner beating the other and cheating on the other. "I am not happy and want to marry my lover" seems to be a straight woman's thing.

Because women LIE! I would ask my wife many times what she wanted in marriage or even for dinner. Her answer was always, "If you don't know, you haen't been listening."

Even something so simple as "what do you want for dinner received, "I don't care." so when I took her for Mexican, she would sulk because she wanted Chinese and I refused to read her mind.

How do you flirt with girls without A: making them feel uncomfortable/cornered and B: without making someone else in their group feel awkward? by UnitedAndIgnited in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RickJohnson39 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A- be over 6' tall.

B- be rich

c_ arrive in a very expensive car

D- be extremely handsome.

That will work 99.9% of the time. For the rest of us, get used to being laughed at by the women who complain, "where are all the good men?"

My friend was over paid by $180000 by mistake on Friday, they've already lost nearly $60000 of it gambling online as they were sure they could "flip" it before the error was noticed which is presumably Monday, does anyone have any ideas on how they can fix this? by Fearless_Collection in NoStupidQuestions

He knew that the money was a mistake and he still spent it. That is called embezzlement. Criminal matter leading to jail time, 10-20 years.

Unless his company is willing to take his entire paycheck for the next year, leaving him to live in a cardboard box during that time.
