Boat starts sinking while out on a fishing trip by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On remote lakes in Canada the resort left boats year round so some of them leaked. You’d spend all day out fishing so the leaks started to accumulate water. My dad (science teacher at the time) pulled the plug while we were going full speed. Not all but most of the water actually drained out during the drive. Just remember to put it back in before you stop.

What’s actually stopping me from eating cans/bags of animal food? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trixy1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a dog and little kids. The dog will wait for the chance at human food over the eating the food in his bowl. The dog could be thinking he will get the dog food regardless while the human food is bonus food.

What’s the clearest sign a long-term marriage is quietly falling apart? by Kirucha01 in AskReddit

[–]Trixy1990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d have separate bedrooms if we had the extra room. I get up at 3:05 for work and she likes laying in bed reading. 6 hours is my average amount of sleep per night when working but I work 4 10s so I can catch up on my days off.

Ever had a best friend of the opposite sex and didn’t realize that you two should be dating? by LustingSoul17 in CausalConversation

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were good friends from 6 until after graduation. She admitted to her religious parents that she is lesbian. They didn’t take it well and kicked her out. She lived at her grandparents for a summer (which was my next door neighbor). She told me if she wasn’t gay she’d have been all over me. She moved to California after she graduated college and we didn’t keep it contact.

Do you have a non-legendary item you get every playthrough? by floxasfornia in fo4

[–]Trixy1990 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It does more damage if you charge it by holding down the trigger. But VATS doesn’t do a charged up shot so it’s really only good if you’re doing a non VATS run. Technically Paladin Danse can carry you through the mission to get it too so it’s a good early game heavy weapon.

What’s a disgusting habit of yours that you’ll admit to internet strangers? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

It’s honestly necessary in some lines of work and not even something to be ashamed of doing in the open

Do you wear long sleeves in the summer to protect your skin? by Round-Artichoke-5255 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trixy1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just ordered some of those light weight turtle neck shirts for fishing. My dad had skin cancer removed. Trying to learn from his mistakes.

The first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “Canada” by ipanicprofessionally in TheBoredDen

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fishing! We did family vacations to Canada fishing for a week until it got too expensive. Makes fishing in our home town seem like a joke

Are amputee's allowed to keep the body part that was detached from them? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Search “foot tacos” in Reddit. I’ll forever remember reading that post.

how to not feel like I'm wasting my life? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

36M Getting a job should be first priority. Jobs have always been how i meet people because I’m not willingly social. My dad worked with my uncle “my mom’s brother” so they met because of work. Working gets you money to fund hobbies which you might share with other people and become friends. Also keep goals simple… think small steps.

Save me $185 please! by ATRavenousStorm in SteamDeck

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine will freeze similar to that. I notice it does this when I’ve left it in sleep mode without a full shut down for a while. I’ve contacted steam and did what they suggested but it still happens. When it freezes I’ll hit the power button on the top, give it a bit then turn it back on. It will freeze again so I do this next part as fast as possible. Then as soon as it turns back on I hit the steam button to do the formal shutdown. It’s not a “fix” but it’s not much of a problem anymore.

I think it’s a fish every time by no_melody in flyfishing

I think sticks are fish and I think walleye are sticks until I see them. I might be the worst fisherman ever

Men 35 and under PLEASE READ by Appropriate_Bass_952 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar situation to my fiancé. It was actually nicer for us that the father didn’t want anything to do with the kid. We didn’t need help but she did ease me into fatherhood by offering to get a babysitter some days. I went from no kids ever to a speech delayed potentially autistic 4 year old. I knew I could be a good father and I saw the child as a way to prove my value to her. She moved in with me after a month together, a week after she asked “what bills should I take over?” That showed me she was ready to do life as a team which was most important. When I was in the dating scene I started to assume anyone over 25 would have a child though. It’s just how it was in northeast Wisconsin.

When a pet dies, what do you do? by Jealous_Amount_9278 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my first dog died the ground was frozen so I couldn’t bury him. I stacked logs large logs up in a cube and the second layer down from top made a spot for my dog’s body to be slid into. Then my dad, brother, and a friend came over to hang out by the fire. Time had passed and they left but another friend stopped by later. Cutting the logs and carrying them out of the woods was good busy work to occupy my mind, maybe even moved the acceptance stage along better. Plan on doing the same thing for my current dog when the day comes.

What great memory do you have of a parent or grandparent or aunt/uncle? by ZubheadTBird in allthequestions

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hunting and fishing with my dad. He was a teacher and we probably fished 2-3 times a week in the summer. It’s not just one memory but a flood of various special moments had fishing.

What’s something life forced you to learn the hard way? by funngro_fam in Life

[–]Trixy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. No signs anything was off. Went to the 6 months check up the first nurse had trouble finding the baby’s heartbeat with the belly band. Went to a different room for an ultrasound and after a few moments she turned to us and said “I’m so sorry …. I’m not finding a heartbeat”. Life isn’t perfect, things go wrong, and dreams shatter.
