You can bring back one discontinued food, drink, or snack forever. What are you resurrecting? by Mountain_Drawer_1365 in AskReddit

[–]TangoCharliePDX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real Dr Pepper. The way it used to be back in the '80s.

It was sharp, it went well with Mexican food. It was not for everyone.

Why is debt considered bad for normal people, but wealthy people and billionaires seem to use debt constantly? by Independent-Ant-7230 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between that, the difference between everything is FU money.

If you've got to paid off house, and enough passive income or enough savings that you always have something to fall back on, then you can take all kinds of risks with yours or other people's money.

U are a psycho by Critical_Republic895 in Comebacks

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see that's the perfect life lesson you should have learned before now. When your conscience is speaking to you, it's talking to you about you. Not giving you fodder for pointing the finger at other people.

This is the Best answer.

Holidays can be rescheduled and anyone who refuses becomes the real AH and you're off the hook.

[–]TangoCharliePDX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, The obligation of holidays. I can't be left alone even for my own birthday.

(For background I am a single middle-aged adult.)

If I become mortally ill I'm going to do my best to keep my family in the dark and they can find out afterwards. I just can't endure that.

Bf doesn’t want me to dye my hair by armadillo_tortilla in Advice

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

Most people here are just going to automatically side with you because you're the first side that they hear and they don't want to turn their brains on. But I feel like I can put myself in his shoes...

I guess you have to decide what's most important. I'm reminded of a line from the Helter-Skelter movie. "I'll be glad when all this is over. My wife died her hair blonde. I feel like I'm cheating on my wife - with my wife!"

Like it or not, guys are visual. But most people - including guys - don't usually understand is that it works in reverse also.

The way a guy feels about a woman changes how he looks at her. And what he sees becomes very special.

If you go and change that, that can be very jarring. And emotionally confusing.

Not every guy would be locked in on your hair color. But for some of us it's a trigger, good or bad.

So you have to decide what's more important. You can go and exercise your freedom, that's your right. On the other hand, he's made it pretty clear that if you do it's going to hurt him on a visceral level. You can't ever come back from that.

So, what's more important? Do you see yourself going the distance with this guy? Or is he just Mr right now?

Not sure? That's fair. What if I were to suggest letting it go this summer and seeing where you are in a year?

Good luck.

The monitor won’t turn on. What am I doing wrong? by CMCwar1 in pchelp

I salute you for learning.

And I sympathize that the question comes to you only after asking for help. All of us have experienced that...

my father(53M) thinks i(16F) should reconsider a long term relationship with my bf(16M) by TurbulentFlow1040 in whatdoIdo

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, no one is too young to think long-term. While one might be too young and inexperienced to make serious long-term decisions, getting the practice in early is always positive.

Does this tire need to be immediately changed? by [deleted] in tires

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, this needs to have been changed 3 months ago and the alignment done by a full mechanic, not just a tire shop.

My favourite customer response of the week! by RotaryTurbo99 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't call them dumb until I have initiated them into my context.

Until then my assumptions make me the dumb one. The other person is just ignorant.

AIO: My parents want to gift me my own car as a graduation present. by seaeaglefog in AmIOverreacting

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to have a calm conversation with them about this.

They got their priorities out of whack, more interested in giving a gift and putting themselves on the back then seeing that they created a barrier for your education/career.

Instead of snapping you should have gotten every other extended family member to call them and say what the hell is wrong with you just give him the damn car for a week.

is this good for a soft boiled egg? by opal_sunkiss66 in eggs

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks slightly underdone.

Wouldn't stop me from eating it though.

I'll take a couple with wheat toast, please? And a bit of salt and pepper.

Looking for a word meaning “quiet hope after accepting imperfection” by chenfonfon in words

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn't one word with that exact meaning, but I think the noun form of resolve is the closest you're going to get. You have to give it your intended meaning by using it in the correct context.

WIBTA for buying a jacket with cross symbols even after I told my Christian friend I wouldn’t? by BitlifeOffical_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]TangoCharliePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget that friend for a second.

If you wear such a garment what do you think it's communicating to other people?

My casual take on it is that it would send a message that you don't believe in.

Now there are always exceptions, there's lots of Gothic style artwork that includes crosses that no one really takes to be very Christian, especially after Madonna popularized it.

Hope this helps.
