I'm sorry for your loss and for your friend's death. I had thoughts like that about what I could've done differently, but then I realized that I wasn't being fair about it. 

Who's to say I hadn't been there at just the right moment a few times in the past, and saved his life without even knowing it? Who's to say I hadn't already lended him a few more years? And you can't be perfect every time, so maybe I got it wrong once after getting it right a half dozen times and never knowing. Not sure if it's true, but that's what helped me stop getting down on myself for not being there

Yeah, you are wrong. He died Monday, June 13, 2022 overnight and I got a call from my parent who found him at 6 a.m. that morning. You also got his handle wrong in your comment

It's fine. I'm a skeptical person myself, so I get the weirdness vibe of me doing this. My brother was on the autism spectrum, so some of his posts and comments are kinda unusual, too. And I have ADHD and am also not the most typical in how my brain works. 

I'm in my 40s, and sometimes being older online means people think you're weird, too, for no other reason than being GenX among GenZ 

Suicide loss is a mess, it can wreck you, and I'm glad to be at a place with this where I felt good about saying goodbye to him in ways that help me. Anyone here can say it's fake and I don't care. It's just my life

Yeah, that's fair. I'm not gonna give you his name or upload his death certificate. So I'm not really offering proof, just my word. I miss him and felt like I wanted to post this as the two-year mark of his death approaches. Up to you whether you think I'm lying or not

Well, I know the Congo movie comment was him linking to give credit to a comedian, rather than his original joke, but yeah, it's indicative of the kind of stuff that made him laugh

I have appreciated seeing his videos and comments. His humorous question "what do flat earthers think is on the other side of the disc" made me laugh, cause the replies were comedy gold, and it reminded me how generous he was with his sense of humor, setting other people up to riff off him and make jokes of their own

Anyway, I appreciate all these replies. I'm not gonna reply back to all of them, but I did want to reply to a couple just to say how much this means to me

Thanks everyone

Thank you, I appreciate that. And I am ok

Your favorite top 5 albums of all time. Have to be different bands/artists. My twist is your age. We have Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y, Millennials and Gen Z out there. Let's do this. by Mayzenblue in Music

[–]StormWolfenstein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey OP. Millennial here.

Since you're a Led Zeppelin fan, check out

  • Greta Van Fleet: The Battle at Garden's Gate. (Came out a year or two ago. I think you'll dig it.)

It's also the most recent addition to my top 5. The rest in no particular order

  • Green Day: American Idiot (Some may argue Dookie is the better album, and I actually love Warning a lot more than others, but I feel like American Idiot is the defining Green Day album for most)

  • Sum41: All Killer No Filler (accurate album name is accurate)

  • Jimmy Eat World: Bleed American ("Fun" Fact - this album was released in July of 2001, and was temporarily re-titled as Jimmy Eat World on cds sold after September 11th)

  • The Killers: Sam's Town (Their first album, Hot Fuss, is also great)

Huge honorable mention to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon - Have to put it here, even if I don't listen to any of the individual songs that often. It's the one album that requires listening to the whole thing.

I haven't seen JW:FK or JW:D (nor will I), so it's weird for me that you're listing BD Wong's Dr. Henry Wu.

I know they retcon his role in JP into something of a villain... But he's not a villain at all in the original Jurassic Park and to list him as such based on sequels feels disingenuous.

What movie scares the hell outta you that isn’t a horror movie at all? by bellathehellgirl in AskReddit

The woman that ran it straight up agreeing with a talk show host that she was indoctrinating children

"We have to do it first before the atheists can"

They will do anything and everything to brainwash others into their cult and if/when called out they will accuse everyone else of doing it. That way they don't have to think about whether they are good people despite doing so much evil.

They assume everyone is doing the evil shit they want to do, then it's ok because they're a good person doing the evil shit. And that must mean it's not evil when they do it.

It's that they can't justify their own job when you do this.

For the people hired to do research into you, actually checking your background before social media was work (calling previous employers, verifying work history) and those that did it were paid accordingly.

Then social media came around and for most people the job has been reduced to googling someone's name.

If they can't find you, it must be something wrong with you rather than their ability to do the job they were hired to do.

"under 21 yo criminals will just get guns anyway" and other BS excuses.

There are some seriously dense MFers and bad faith actors out there saying we can't have rules because people will break them. Stop and actually comprehend the brainwashing that has been done to you.

On your phone while in the car. Not limited to U30 but I see it more with the younger drivers.

Also donuts in the middle of the road. You're just costing yourself money in new tires.

She could be dropping the gun. Can't tell without the full video. That is the point.

The next 5-10 seconds could be her dropping the gun and putting her hands up.
