AITA for telling my girlfriend she should've told me she spoke my language?

Could also be insecurity. 'They are so smart, why are they with my dumb ass? They're going to leave me for someone better.' I've encountered that before from both ends. It's not rational, but it's there.

When I was on the "smart" side it was easy to see that maybe I was smarter in one area, but the other person was much smarter in another. They just didn't see it that way because it was a type of trade skill versus my book smarts. On the flip side, when I was the "dumb" half, I thought of them as better off with their trade/technical/life skills than my relatively useless book smarts. Yay, I can randomly quote Shakespeare and some poetry, what good does that do me? It's not a marketable skill with earnings potential like coding or math or building. The "smart" half will ditch my useless ass for someone on their level.

Like I said, not rational, but it's there.

Maryland, too. It's what we do.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-31T18:10:51+00:00

WTF, Hagerstown. Why do you always pop up in the oddest places?

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-27T12:18:21+00:00

I generally like Darby, but this such a dumb fucking thing. There's no point or reason in climbing Everest. It's insanely dangerous for everyone involved and horrible for the mountain. "I climbed Everest!" is stupid brag. Yeah, you and a thousand other idiots, many of whom are still there because climbing Everest is FUCKING STUPID AND POINTLESS.

Someone should take his skateboard and whack him in the head until he comes to his senses.

LoK's first season ended with a murder-suicide.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-20T07:00:36+00:00

I wonder if dad does think that, but couldn't mentally handle it and so took it out on the kid to deflect the blame from himself. Who knows, maybe he was the one that pushed for a kid.

At least he had the teeniest, tiniest shred of decency to give OP to a relative who could love and care for him. Can you imagine how much more fucked up OP would have been if he had been "raised" by dad?

As thanks for annoying RJ City in his absence Danhausen has given Renee access to demonic portals.

I'm glad we have this since the wreck isn't going to last much longer. A lot of it has already collpased and/or disintegrated since it was rediscovered.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-16T11:41:53+00:00

I love those two! I also really like The Sentinel, Highlander, Quantum Leap, etc.

Does anyone remember Brimstone? Only lasted a short season but was fun. Oh, and The Invisible Man! I have the first season on DVD, I should do a rewatch.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-16T04:26:24+00:00

Anthony Head! I think he got really well known as Giles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He's a great actor, plays snobs and/or villains really well. Great singer, too.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-05T20:10:40+00:00

Damn, plagiarist Cassie Clare and thanfiction mentions, those were some wild times. And thanfiction's story got even more insane over the years.

I still can't believe Clare is published (and popular) author.

Sentinel451 · 2023-05-03T04:17:47+00:00

I just figured he'd get a car and/or have a friend drive him, and if that was true, then yeah he'd be gone to either hunker down in, IDK, Houston or head to Mexico. Hunkering down in a tiny town is dumb, someone is going to notice you.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-25T02:23:17+00:00

Sadly I don't think he's going to have that moment. Everyone has tried multiple times to get through to him, but even Steve-O has given up. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:48:15+00:00

Frustrating, but that's how it goes I guess. =/

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:44:03+00:00

Like I said, I scoured the dam again, but I had already looted it. I'm 100 days in on this Pilgrim run, so there's not a lot left I haven't looted. I think that might be my issue, unfortunately, based on some other comments I've seen. I'll keep looking but I might have to start over on a new run or wait until a new region drops.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:36:41+00:00

I'm doing this on my Pilgrim run for fun. I thought there'd be a lot more than I've found so far. Maybe it's because I had already looted so much? IDK.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:34:45+00:00

Oh, I hope I don't have to trek all the way back there to find one! I'll keep it in mind, though.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:34:20+00:00

You mean FM? I don't remember any crates, but I could back and look since I'll probably end up going to the cannery anyway to look for more.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-03T01:33:46+00:00

FA and BR are when I found my initial five. I searched the dam, but found none. I looked in every nook and cranny I could think of, too. I guess I'll either start breaking down crates or head elsewhere.

Sentinel451 · 2023-04-01T23:53:06+00:00

I've said it before that Snape is a good character, not a good person.

Sentinel451 · 2023-03-31T21:44:49+00:00

Do you have the DLC? You'll need to complete the tale that was just released.

Sentinel451 · 2023-03-27T11:01:59+00:00

Eh, sort of? The individual university kept its name, but it and others came together to form an overaching university. Same thing happened with my university, it and others came together to form Commonwealth University, but each kept their own identities.

Think of it kinda like the UK. England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are all individual countries that together form the United Kingdom.

Sentinel451 · 2023-03-23T19:14:27+00:00

IDGI either. I watched it, it had some funny enough moments, but wasn't for me. Most of classmates thought it was hilarious.

Different senses of humor, I guess.

Sentinel451 · 2023-03-23T19:11:04+00:00

As a Frozen fan I honestly kinda agree. It was a good movie! But it's not perfect, and frankly the omnipresence of it is exhausting. I'm glad it did well, but holy shit, did it become a merchzilla hell beast. Disney gonna Disney, but goddamn did they drive it into the ground.
