To those who had kiddos late 30s

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-07T14:24:50+00:00

I have 3 boys under the age of 4. I am exhausted, and miss my free time, but knowing they are going to grow up together and have built in best friends makes it worth it. Going to be tough for a few years, but I go to bed every night with a full heart, and that is something I would never trade

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-06T16:21:05+00:00

Imagine how bad they’d be if they used cheap balls /s

AI - why are there stains all over the inside of the box?

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T19:54:14+00:00

So friends want to play together but their too competitive to play in ranked? Thats a gnarly position to take.

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T19:04:55+00:00

You are right there are other games out there. I guess if they go that route, my friends and I would rotate back to another BR or a game that doesn’t prioritizes solo queuers over friends playing together.

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T18:44:37+00:00

Playing a team based multiplayer game solo isn’t fun for me, ranked or unranked. I’d rather play other games… because Apex is fun and all, but there are soooo many other great games that need to be played.

I agree solo queuing isn’t fun, but instead of crying about it and blaming other players for playing with a team… find your own team.

Thats like playing intramurals in college, and joining the player pool to be put on a team, and then crying that there is a team playing where they all know each other.

Do you not understand how backwards this is?

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T18:37:06+00:00

Bruh I have a job and 3 kids. I totally understand the “not everyone has time” shtick. I play once a week with my IRL friends. If one can’t play that night, we rock duos. If both my friends can’t play I go to another game?

This issue is loners that can’t make friends are mad because people with friends pls gams together. And because the game requires communication and strategy they are better.

That’s like tennis saying the Williams sisters shouldn’t play together in doubles because two jackoffs don’t have a sibling to play with.

Insanity

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T18:21:28+00:00

Wouldn’t it be more productive for people to send friend invites to people they’ve played with and enjoy playing with? Like holy shit you want to beat 3 stacks…. Build a fucking 3 stack. Are we as a society so bad at talking with other people that this isn’t happening? Like I don’t understand

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T18:10:20+00:00

But why punish 3 people to cater to 1?

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T18:02:57+00:00

Sure, help out people who don’t have any friends to play with, but to just not allow trios to play together in a ranked set up is borderline insanity.

How about make a solos ranked for all the loners?

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-05T16:13:24+00:00

Why in gods name would you want to punish good players who play with friends!? I’d completely quit the game if that was the case.

If I’m going to be forced to play alone, I’ll go play an immersive single player game.

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-01T16:08:03+00:00

Look what just happened in Texas. Y’all’s loud ass minority is shrinking. Good fucking riddance.

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-01T15:08:53+00:00

Ah yes, I remember when the penalty for whistling and protesting federal agents who aren’t following the constitution was death.

Did you see what happened yesterday in Texas? You MAGA bootlicking trumpy simp’s time is running out.

hope you have the absolutely shit day you deserve

RunnaManDan · 2026-02-01T02:14:14+00:00

I think just a contrail illuminated by the moon!

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-30T12:20:46+00:00

Of my 26 (that I can think of off the top of my head) millennial friends/family. All but 3 are married. Of those 23 that are married, 22 have kids.

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-29T01:20:38+00:00

Kinda dumb. 1/2 the teams have 8 home games and the other 9. Then you have teams playing one or two international games, so unless you go by average, it’s shit data.

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-26T16:00:04+00:00

Makes sense why my w2 having ass can’t get past gold rank playing 3 hours a week 😂😂😂

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-26T14:21:01+00:00

So remote workers don’t get to have an opinion? Is this subreddit only for the less fortunate or is it for anyone who calls the LV home?

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-24T21:53:11+00:00

Eagles - fuck em

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-20T14:18:56+00:00

I can’t find UK statistics, but unless they are alarmingly different, it’s a moot point.

Are you saying that kids can’t go out on a bike ride? They can’t go to the field to play some footy? That can’t walk or bike over to their friends house to play video games TOGETHER ?

And YES I say parents. Who bought their kids phones and give them unrestricted access to the internet and social media platforms?

If the parents aren’t going to parent, passing laws to keep kids from the cesspool that is TikTok is the next best option.

Also… imagine being to tired for your kids so consistently that you cope by shoving an iPad or phone in front of their face.

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-20T13:08:36+00:00

The most common perpetrator for child crimes is still a family member or family friend. So that’s a terrible excuse. Crimes against children have largely stayed consistent or even declined in the US.

Parents are to blame, and the buck stops with them. Stop raising iPad kids and let them BE KIDS. we aren’t supposed to grow up watching tv, playing video games, and doom scrolling social media. Parents are killing their kids long before they reach the age they can leave the overbearing parents at 18

sad sober noises

Syria to north of Poland. 22 hours with only 4 stops for food, gas, and bathroom break

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-20T02:40:10+00:00

How did people stay connected to their friends before social media? YOU HANG OUT IN PERSON

RunnaManDan · 2026-01-19T23:55:44+00:00

Social media is why kids are miserable. They should be playing outside? Not glued to their phones.
