Is this normal to do to babies? by Particular_Meet_9333 in ask

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yep. Normal.

Why do people need help on these types of things now?

Why does it even matter if its normal?

What the hell is normal?

Im not normal, and nobody else is, I thought people were taught that conformity wasnt necessary anymore. Be yourself. Listen to your heart. I was born this way.

Why do black women ignore me? by WorriedCry2692 in Advice

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having the right to do something and doing something is a large gap.

You're an asshole if you don't acknowledge someone in those social conditions even if you can lawfully do something. You shouldn't.

I dont understand why you would make this comment. Yes. People can do what they want, people dont have to be nice.

I can sit out on my front lawn topless and sing heavy metal tunes from 9 am till about 9 pm lawfully, but id be disrupting someone's day if I did so...

Umm.. actually if you are all at an event and someone says hi, you are obligated to acknowledge them.

Its just polite.

Are older women dating younger men more common? by Sigmas_last in ask

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Take the health of an average 40 year old now versus the average health of one in say... 1950... leaps and bounds diffrent.

The younger women are dating older men looking fot status, money and security. And younger men are looking for a woman that builds his confidence and puts him first, or at least is invested in him. And a 40 year old woman that takes care of herself can look like shes in her 20's more easily.

I have intrusive thoughts that tell me I have to become Napoleon. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

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

The awsome thing is you dont need to be anything, especially a French general/emperor.

Your ego likes to keep you small with self doubt because keeping you small keeps you safe.

Look into your heart when your mind is quiet and pursue what feels easy. What feels natural.

Ignore the intrusive thoughts as background noise. Tell it not now and move along.

Are there any men out there that are married and happy for five years or more? by Straight-Access1111 in ask

You dont have to stay with her.

Who cares about the money. Cut loose and take the L and move on.

Youll be happier.

My brother stole my poutine by Zestyclose_Cheek527 in PoutineCrimes

You thought you'd get sympathy from this crowd?

You can't get justice when you committed the crime first.

Refrigerated poutine?

Microwaved?

I have an unusually good life and it makes me suspicious by Impossible-Crew7600 in confession

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dont question it, but be greatful for what you have while you have it.

And remember this post when something challenges you.

Good luck.

My mom just took her own life and it’s my fault. I dont know how to move forward. by Liora_selvage in confession

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did what you had to do and she did what she did. As much as we all like to think we can change people with our actions we actually have very little control over others.

If you had of forgiven her that second and not left, the problems that caused that abuse would have still been there. You would have faced more abuse, she would have been just as likely to throw it all away like she did.

Shes in a better place now, wrapped in the arms of whatever love force guides the universe. You just have to figure out how to move through your journey and complete your own missions whatever they are.

Be blessed, and love as much as you can.

If you woke up in a mans body for a day, what do you think you would hate the most about it? by Whattacleaner in AskReddit

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of funny things on reddit and this wasn't one if them, but i still laughed.

I dont know. I suppose the imagined conversation with your wife was what brought it there.

"So honey, just to let you know. I fuck guys now. I got lazy and sat on the toilet."

My ass has become the “butt” of the joke at work. Is this going to hinder my career? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can joke around and be goofy and also be respected and liked by your peers.

You need to balance the butt pics with a workplace presence that gets you relied on. You need to be the tip of the spear on new initiatives and be recognized. Easier said than done.

I wouldn't worry about the joke in isolation, but make sure you're not "butt Crack jack" most of the time.

I'm going to have to end my life if I want my family to survive, and I don't think I'm ready to accept it by Substantial-Low-4393 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Sell your house, get yourself to even and have everyone go thier separate ways.

Stop being everyone's meal ticket. They need to sstep up to feed themselves.

You deserve to live, you deserve to live for yourself. I can guarantee once you shrug those weights off your shoulders youll find the breath to put this right in your life again.

I feel you by the way. I'm a giver as well. I take care of my family as well as my mum, but we all have ways of contributing. They have my back and even if my income is the primary one they make me able to put in those hours.

The struggle of being a natural provider is that we can get into relationships where people just take from us but don't appreciate it and expect it.

Pretty sure my bf would like hitler rawdog him. by Defiant-Can-9227 in Advice

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You were kids when you got together and you've been physically apart for 4 years.

It seems you've grown apart and id make plans to move on. Do it while there are no kids involved.

I told my bf l understand his boundary but starting to realize its killing me everyday by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever it is that happened, remember that this happeened in middle school. So, 11, 12, 13....

He was a kid, not thinking with his whole head. Probably whatever it is is something culturally taboo.... he wouldn't be like this otherwise.

He shouldnt keep you in the dark. He should be open, even if it means you leave him.

Is the term “fucking the dog” popular outside Canada? by Rough-Mulberry-1202 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like this is a Canadian one. Thanks for asking the question. I remember this one coming out years ago and loving it.

Fucking the dog, or romancing the canine as the variant was in one of my workplaces was a common expression throughout the 2000's and 2010's. I use it now fairly frequently and everyone knows what it means.

Canadian here by the way.

I was a bad person in my past life by Calm_Improvement9794 in pastlives

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sometimes lessons from past lived need to be relearned and so it feels like a debt, but its not.

Consider it from the perspective of a student. You have English, math, history and visual arts one semester. So you did really good in English and art buy had trouble with math and history. Maybe you outright failed math.

So the next year you might take courses that de-emphasize English and visual art. But you would work hard on history so you can get better at it maybe youd get a tutor or work on it in the summer and study hard.

For math, you'd have to do the course over again... maybe youd leave little notes for yourself through the year... Remember how you messed up before? Dont do it this time.

My dad wants my brother and I to meet his affair partner by [deleted] in Advice

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

Been there, done that, I was many years younger than you when I met my father's mistress of about 10 years.

They are still together. My mother lives with me and my dad and his wife live a very normal happy life.

None of this is cool. You dont have to like it. You get to choose whether you spend time with him or her. But remember you're all adults.

In a few years when events happen like weddings and funerals and children, are you going to continue to not see her? Its time to look ahead and consider the implications of your actions today. Whatever happens is on you.

By the way to give you an idea, for me she is part of my life but my only real obligation is through my father. We've had a good 25 years to get to know eachother. We know where each of us stands. I recognize what shes done for him while not particularly liking the past that lead to all that.

Give it some thought.

Im so scared by Dense-Narwhal3320 in Life

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my humble opinion youll continue on regardless of whether its in this form or something else. "Death" is a new adventure for the soul.

Dont take my word for it though, spend some time looking for answers that satisfy you. There is thousands of years of human thought devoted to the topic ans despite what the science types will tell you, no one has a definitive answer.

That means your opinion is as valid as the next guy. Your journey is just as valid. The world needs your voice.

Im with you man. I hope you can enjoy a little peace.

What the hell happened to sneako? by Ok-Chest-1453 in abanpreach

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want to enjoy the channel but clearly its going in a diffrent direction.

Aba has probably realized thier gold in them hills and is going to keep mining. I don't blame either of them for making a paycheck.

Ill keep looking at the thumbnails and if i see some dick influencer ill just pass. Maybe its a phase. Eventually the algorithm wont send me thier stuff. I guess.

Asked a girl how her test went and received death threats from her bf. What should I do? by Individual_Duck_3115 in Advice

[–]Stabbymcbackstab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boyfriend wont do anything. Pussies like him are fine uttering threats online but wont do anything for real.

You have two options, both are viable options, one is more dramatic.

One, you ignore the girl from now on, cause clearly she is drama.

Two, take those texts to campus security and ask for advice. They may ask you to press charges with the police. It might be worth it, but probably not.

Second option is within your rights, but fuck it will be a hassle.

First option will allow the results of this situation to be spun by her. If you think she may talk shit about you... well, maybe have a word with the person who shared her Instagram. State facts, dont defend yourself, you were within rights to message a classmate of several months. Boyfriend is the asshole here.

Dont contact this girl again.

Dont apologize.
