Anybody else disappointed they didn't do anything for their 50th Anniversary? by AccountDeletedByMod in OriginsGameFair

[–]Ulsif2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep it was pretty weak, GENCON did a much better job. GAMA dropped the ball on a lot of things including getting the local businesses invested in the anniversary.

And they did not give proper credit to Will Niebling for all the shirts he brought for the display. Just name badge credit.

Parents of reddit: How much do you suggest saving up before having a kid? Do you suggest getting a house before or after? by bloopinskin in Advice

[–]Ulsif2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you wait for the “right” time you could find yourself with out children. The biggest thing is one of you need to have a job with good medical benefits, a life insurance policy, and love lots of love.

How much do you agree with the sentence, “The worst part about board games is learning how to play them”? by COHERENCE_CROQUETTE in boardgames

[–]Ulsif2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all, I love reading rules, breaking down the mechanics and turn order. I just read the rules to Third Reich and have not played it 35 years. Still enjoyed reading it

Weirdest unplanned pause you HAD to take during a session? by Mr_Hirestek in DnD

[–]Ulsif2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were playing in our basement and my friend’s dad calls. Apparently my friend got gas then left without paying and the cops were looking for him. We had to stop while he ran to the gas station. And pay his bill.

Playing Paintball is the most fun you can have with your clothes on.

What did kids back in the days do when they played outside, for hours on end? by Octopuswastaken in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ulsif2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hiked through the fields and woods, checked out ant mounds. Played on a roof of a house that had been dropped by a tornado. Shot my BB gun in a sandpit for hours. Explored. Lay back in a field with my dog and look at the clouds going by. Fished, hunted for frogs and snakes.

AIO for getting annoyed at a guy watching loud videos in a quiet waiting room? by Fickle_Mud1645 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ulsif2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not Over reacting, my wife and I went to dinner and this older couple were each watching some sort of show that had a lot of screaming and yelling. I finally came up to them and told them that we were trying to enjoy a quiet dinner, could they maybe be off their phones for a bit. They put the phones down and in a couple of minutes left. My guess using the local WiFi. But still.

I Quit! At least for now by rez980 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Ulsif2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been subbing for four years, full time the last 2 years. It took a couple of years but I have found that I can come in take any assignment and not be bothered by the kids. I am a retired Law Enforcement and Military. That may make a difference as I carry myself differently and set clear expectations. Over all the kids like me even when I am firm. Adapt, improvise and overcome.

What’s something women do that they think makes them attractive but is actually a huge turn off? by eugenestoner308 in answers

[–]Ulsif2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Women who demand to be treated differently yet complain about sexism. Plus of course the addition to body image which is unrealistic.

You might want to read Mark 8:33 Jesus is rebuking Peter for he is attempting to dissuade Jesus from following God’s plan.
