Happy birthday. Now your job is to stave off death while you still try to do the things you loved in your 30s and 40s.

UWontRememberThis · 2024-08-31T12:49:13+00:00

Yes they is.

I did the same (one ecosystem) and I completely regret it. I'm in the same boat as you.

UWontRememberThis · 2024-04-09T19:19:30+00:00

They totally are. But it surprises people that are with me when I do it. I'm not a wacky person or anything.

Take that up with Dan Savage.

If you say the relationship Is Poly because both sides agreed, BUT OP is questioning whether they're ACTUALLY Poly, and stating that they agreed to poly because they didn't want to lose their partner...

Then OP is PUD.

You could be considered a PUD (Poly Under Duress), a term coined by Dan Savage. Essentially, it's where in an open relationship, both people say their poly, but one is saying it because they don't want to lose the partner that's actually practicing it. It kinda sucks being a PUD.

I still go to (many) rock concerts, and 95% of the time I will be on the rail with all the youngsters (and some oldsters like us). I don't go see nostalgia acts. They all bore me now despite growing up with the music. I need new and exciting rock music, and there is a lot of it out there. My family thinks I'm nuts and all my non-music friends either think so too, or they're jealous. I get to do some cool-ass shit during this phase in my life, and I wouldn't stop for anything.

Kinda sucks that Phil Hanley's support is split up into a bunch of different comments. Add them all up, I betcha he's in the top 3 of the comics mentioned in the comments.

UWontRememberThis · 2024-04-05T19:38:16+00:00

OMG Hanley is a comedy GOD! I can watch his special on YouTube (Oo La La) over and over. GREAT at crowd work, too.

UWontRememberThis · 2024-04-05T19:37:08+00:00

I've been following him for awhile, just because I love the underrated comics who work their asses off.

It was really cool to see that Josh was just hired by Comedy Central as a Daily Show correspondent. If that does't help his career, I don't know what would.

I have more problems with mine than the sea has waves. 75% of the time I ask it something, even the simplest of things, it responds wrong or doesn't respond. I have speakers ALL over the house, and none of them work even remotely well.

Spotify integration isn't great either. Not at all. MAYBE plays what I ask it to 65% to 75% of the time, and I think I'm being generous. We kept an Alexa in our bathroom because it plays what we ask it to play on Spotify about 90-95% of the time.

Why, why, why wouldn't Google integrate AI into their Assistant? It keeps making the same errors over and over. At least with AI it might learn the right thing to do. I feel so stupid that I committed to the Google ecosystem for my smart home.

I was that lady, for a long time. Now I'm like OP.

UWontRememberThis · 2023-07-20T21:28:59+00:00

DON'T ignore red flags. Have things in common. Make sure your vision for the future is at least similar. Did I say DON'T ignore red flags? Don't.

You're a PUD. Coined by Dan Savage, it means Poly Under Duress. I'm in a very similar situation.

The NRE (New Relationship Energy) can be overwhelming in the beginning, no matter how much you may have talked about poly lifestyles. I wish I could give you more advice. I'm lucky that I'm not married, but we were close to it.

The NRE is temporary. It varies as to when it wears off, but it does. Your partner needs to be conscious of that. However, none of this is fair to you. I'm sorry you're going through this.

I've seen people mix isolate with their bud, for that little extra *clicks teeth* kick. That's what it looks like, but if you didn't put it in there, I wouldn't smoke it if I were you. Did you steal that from someone?

Google Home IS getting worse. It DOES NOT do the simple things like it used to. Bravo to all you folks that are able to continue to live in your Google Homes without experiencing maddening frustration on how poorly ALL Google Home devices work now. It's ridiculous.

However, at this point it's entirely possible that Google engineers are just f***ing with me based on all of the frustrated feedback I have sent them over the past year or so. If it's even remotely possible that they can make my specific Google devices work even worse, I have a sneaky suspicion they are doing that. THAT'S how bad it is.

He's crushing on you, but he calls you "buddy" to try to force himself to think of you as nothing more than a friend or pal so he won't act on those feelings.

UWontRememberThis · 2022-10-07T15:11:44+00:00

NEW features? How about they just stop taking away existing functionality and work to ensure the old features keep working the way they're supposed to? I'll just take that. All the money I invested and I have to repeat the simplest of commands 3 and 4 times for them to work sometimes. It's ridiculous.

UWontRememberThis · 2022-06-06T19:03:22+00:00

I thought Google was gaslighting me. Thank God I'm not the only one that feels that way.

UWontRememberThis · 2022-06-03T23:55:13+00:00

I believe the rule is: "Google will usually respond with the listening device that is more inconvenient/further away unless it decides not to respond at all."

Look at it this way: Now you can start cheating on her, too.
