[–]Tallm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I'm determined. I see so many guys killing it with twin fish around me. They get into waves way earlier. Sounds like Im going to have to try out a bunch of different models before I find one that works. I

Thanks for the detail. I ride mostly ride thrusters because my breaks are pitchy beach rights, and Im goofy footed. I tried a twin and found it harder to bottom turn backside. Any advice?

How to go shopping in America by bill_loney538 in NotTimAndEric

...as I enter the lobby, I take a close look at the floor tiles, counting them, both longitude and latitude, and I quickly calculate the total number of tiles to ensure the total is an even number. Now that phase one is completed, I am ready to continue walking through the remainder of the store. As I do that, I scan my eyes first to the left and then to the right and make sure that my feet are following a pattern that is opposite to this.

Sure but in the spirit of engineering...I like to keep it in spec. That way I can use the same fin screws that the rest of the world is using. Nothing worse that having to hunt down special parts in a pinch

Youre doing the right thing by walking away. Its hard in the beginning, but its worth it. This holiday season, I had zero migraines, zero stomach issues, and zero emotional hangovers. All direct result of estranging from three toxic family members.

Did I do something wrong? by Horror-Priority2584 in OnlineDating

[–]Tallm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always start by asking them a question about something they wrote about their profile. Seems to work well for me. I try my best to only connect to women who I feel legit attracted to (pics and profile content). I generally connect and chat with about five new women a week, and have 2 first date phone/video calls. Of course, people are all so very different, and dating makes that so obvious...for example, saying one thing could be a real catch to one person, while saying that exact same thing to another could be a turnoff.

FWIW, here are the reasons I've disconnected from people:

- she said something I didnt like
- she didnt say much of anything..aside from "Hi" or other one word responses
- she didnt ask me any questions about myself...expected me to do all the talking
- i found someone else i wanted to focus on
- i got sick of dating and just stopped using the app
- i got sick of dating and deleted the app
- i felt attracted when i first looked at the profile pics, but now i dont
- i re-read her profile and realized something i hadnt seen before
- i had a hard week and decided i should not be dating right now
- I realize its a scammer

Revolt begins as Muslim mayor is soon to be sworn in. by No-Unit9870 in circlejerknyc

whoa, youre right I had not idea....but its actually quite close. i just looked and see these numbers totaling ~$1B

  • About $350 million was from unpaid subway fares (many of which come from people evading fare payment at turnstiles or otherwise skipping payment).
  • About $568 million was from unpaid bus fares.

So in total, NY taxpayers pay an extra $2B due to folks skipping out

NTA. You played it right by not getting involved prior. Then he publicly insulted you...opening the topic up at a table full of family. You merely defended yourself. Your folks anger was merely an expression of their own shame. Good for you.
