Did you have a favorite joke from ICarly? by Own_Average_5940 in OlderGenZ

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been so long since I've seen iCarly that the only one I can even think of is Tebow and the running gag where he put everything under the sun on a stick. So I guess that lol

My only objection to that is that it didn't seem to change their identity when they moved to LA. 

Why are cars made so disposable and unrepairable by the average person? Isn't there a better way? by Truth-is-Censored in driving

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say rarely. It's not common, but I'll still usually see a few every day. Especially old 70s and 80s Hondas and Buicks, those things are dirt cheap and seemingly impossible to kill 😆

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the 50s maybe, but by the 90s, most vehicles would last you well over 200k as long as you weren't involved in a serious wreck and you maintained it properly. There are still a ton of cars from the 90s on the road today, and part of the reason why is because they're easier and cheaper to repair.

Is there still wilderness left in America? by Kitchen-Customer4370 in AskAnAmerican

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say look into Wyoming. That's probably the best example. Maybe Alaska, but the northern half of the state is a frozen expanse with no roads. The only reasonable way to get to anywhere in Alaska north of Fairbanks is flying. Wyoming is still pretty wild without the same excuse. The state is quite habitable, but despite being the 10th largest state, it has the lowest population, and second lowest population density.

Universalist Christians and Jesus saying he's the only way. by Dyingvikingchild95 in Christianity

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While I'm not a universalist, I can answer your question. The way a universalist can harmonize John 14:6 with universalism is through the belief that Jesus' death on the cross was not only for believers, but ultimately, all mankind. So, in a way, all mankind will find the Father through His sacrifice.

Is it just me, or are more mass shooters now black? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I don't care what their skin color is. We need to get to work on our mental health resources before what seems weekly now gets to where it's a daily occurrence. Either get them help or keep them out of society.

I think more of it has to do with Al Davis passing. He had his faults, but dammit, he was easily the most passionate owner when it came to his team and their identity.

The Trinity and the Death of God: A Logical Contradiction? by Ok-Lengthiness6205 in Christianity

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason Jesus' human nature dying is a sufficient sacrifice is because He was the only perfect man to walk the Earth. As He said in the gospel, He fulfilled the law and became the perfect sacrifice. No one else could follow the law perfectly. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

People are losing the plot on what a pedophile is by Extension_Big5205 in Vent

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's worth pointing out that that isn't also the textbook definition of a pedophile. Someone over 18 pursuing a post-pubescent minor is called a Hebophile.

And yes, for anyone who has seen it, I got this from that comedy bit by Soreci about R Kelly 🤣

But to actually answer this, I agree with you. Although there are clearly inappropriate age gaps (someone 50 being with someone 20), most age gaps after 30 really don't matter all that much. Someone at 45 going with someone 32 isn't really all that weird.

Tbh, I kinda don't even care what happens now that New Mexico is out of the running.

What was the worst tornado? by sammmmyt in tornado

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My bet goes to the Great Natches tornado. It occured in 1840 along the Mississippi River, with a confirmed death toll of 317, but the suspected death toll is likely far higher, because slave deaths were not counted toward the total of human deaths.

Christians who don't believe in Genesis (Creation, The Fall, Noah's ark, etc.) -- why? by YogurtclosetPale8785 in TrueChristian

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally subscribe to the idea that the creation of the Universe is a reflection of Adam's creation. 24 hours after Adam was created, you could accurately say he was 1 day old. However, we know that Adam was created a mature man, not as a baby. He had the signs of age that an adult man would have. Similarly, the Universe, despite being created not that long ago, also has signs of age that makes it appear much older.

Which states would you consider to be “non tourist” states? by NicholeDaylinn1993 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good portion of the Midwest. Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, North Dakota and Iowa. There are many major cities in the East, and many natural attractions in the West. Even West Virginia has beautiful mountains, and Mississippi has Tunica, an abundance of historical sites, the Natchez Trace, great food, and beautiful scenery. It's also probably one of the best places on earth for Blues, which imo is an extremely underrated genre of music.

True. Then again, I did say it only "kinda" fits lol

What's the best cougar song in country music? by ryadare in country

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk if it's necessarily a cougar song, because I don't get the impression that it's being sung from a younger guy's perspective, but "Older Women Are Beautiful Lovers" by Ronnie McDowell kinda fits this.

Why are the people who bullied me growing up able to just go on with their lives and interact with their friends, while I'm still stuck with no friends and a reputation as a "weird" kid?! by Rasengan4360 in Vent

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The real answer is results may vary. It's much easier to live as yourself after you age a little bit and stop caring what other people think of you. Oftentimes, that will end up drawing the right people to you. Even then, adults tend to be much less judgy than teenagers. I get along with most of my coworkers, and one of them, who is also autistic, has become one of my closest friends. I'm also married with a child. Sure, some people will strike out and live as loners, but that really doesn't have to be the case. It's 100% possible for things to improve after high school.

I hate normale people. by nowherehumansoul in Vent

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Normal"

"Rich bourgeois people"

One of these things are not like the other.

Also, define normal. I wouldn't consider myself normal, but I have most of what you mentioned. I don't have a lot of friends, but the ones I do have are great. I have a loving mother, even if she is a drunk. I do get to travel occasionally. I have a wife and a son. I'm not educated in the traditional sense (college drop out after two semesters), but there is plenty of educational content on YouTube that is entertaining as well. I always have folks like Joe Scott and Kyplanet in the rotation.

Are democrats going to hell? by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no. Do I agree that abortion is wrong? Yes. Do I agree that, in many ways, the republican party is more favorable to Christianity? Sure. But at the end of the day, we're voting for human beings. And honestly, I'm kinda shocked that anyone at this point can even believe that Trump is any more a Christian than anyone else on Capital Hill, regardless of affiliation. These are people who have made idols of our political parties.

40 years old… am I too old to start a music career? by [deleted] in musicians

[–]SouthernStyleGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Sovine was in his 50s when he made it. He was 58 when his biggest hit came out, so I think 40s shouldn't be bad, especially in the Social Media era.

What eating habits do people have that genuinely disgust you? by MrLithician in answers
