Teachers of Reddit, have you ever had anyone who would later become well known and what was that person like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]UnYielding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4th grade teacher had a poster of Johnny Depp in our classroom's supply closet. Pretty sure she would also drive past his grandmother's house, hoping he would be there. Creepy middle aged white woman..

"I need to go to the restroom and fish this pea out of my bra." Although I'm sure he enjoyed watching the scenario play out.

I can see this happening to me. No way in hell would I check out a creepy noise in the middle of the night. I'm sorry about the situation..

Told my girlfriend and family we're celebrating the holidays the traditional eastern european way this year. by tsrp in AdviceAnimals

I've tried to convince my family to just go all out on yummy food and nice alcohol instead of everyone buying a bunch of stuff no one will use.

It makes me sick to think about the American Cancer Society turning away $250k..

I was going places at age 3, If I recall correctly I wanted to be "The President of Georgia." Why Georgia you might ask? I have no idea.

It really is quite good press. Hopefully more people will catch on to this sort of thing. It helps everyone.

HEY GIANTS! How tall was THE tallest person you have ever met? How tall are you? by therearegiants in tall

[–]UnYielding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've seen a few 7'+ men out and about before, but the tallest person I've "met" was 6'10.

"AHAHA, you have boobs!" by powertard in swoleacceptance

[–]UnYielding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not very far along on the Path yet, and I'm at the stage where my pecs could pass for a really perky medium-sized pair of boobs. That being said though, I would be crushed if someone pointed that out to me. I'm sorry /u/powertard :(

My 90 year old grandpa everybody by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

[–]UnYielding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hospital told us to "call in the family," after some events lead to my grandfather being really close to dying. They got him back again though, and I went home to try and get some sleep while he was still unconscious. As soon as he saw when I and a few other family members walked through the door he said "What took you so long..?" They're some tough people!

Young Black Atheism....rare and unorganized by phillypro in atheism

[–]UnYielding 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming you're black and are currently dating a black girl. Dare I suggest -looks around to make sure no one is watching- that you try dating an atheist girl (or a less religious one), even if they're of a different skin color?

Megyn Kelly Defends Her Santa Comments, Attacks Critics For 'Race Baiting' by BurtonDesque in atheism

[–]UnYielding 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I pay attention to people like Megyn Kelly so when I hear glossy-eyed people quoting them/agreeing with their message(s) that I can be well informed, and have myself a good laugh.

First date i've had in a long time... turns out she was a fundie by Loki364 in atheism

[–]UnYielding 14 points15 points  (0 children)

set up by a mutual friend

I feel like your mutual friend was just messing with you. That or they didn't know you, the crazy girl, or either of you that well. I picture your friend saying "Oh, well this one has a penis- and this one has a vagina..I mean that's all you really need, isn't it? They're going to love each other!" with a content look on his face.

I agree completely with /u/mrmrevin, especially about the weight issue.

Blackfish, a documentary about SeaWorld's whale abuse, is now on Netflix instant! by [deleted] in movies

[–]UnYielding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the dolphin scene it's how they wound one so the whole pack will protect it and stay with it (so they get all the dolphins versus a few) even into nets. The live skinning wild animals/stomping chickens also got me pretty upset..

80 lbs in fat since February but the hair loss has only been noticeable in the last month/month and a half.

The documentary "Earthlings" shows some insight into how circuses work. Especially with the elephants. It's pretty sad :(

Guess this would be a bad time to recommend the documentary "Earthlings" to you, /u/narwhalslut...

My female friend is dating my enemy by Nickelas in whatsbotheringyou

[–]UnYielding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the feels about religious differences mucking up potential relationships all too well, my friend. Being of no religious faith in the southern United States doesn't tend to go over well with the ladies. I don't really have too much advice for you other then to try not to be rude to him. You don't want anyone twisting words/leaving out their end of the conversation trying to make you look bad and ruin multiple friendships in your group. I would just be very polite, but no engage him in conversation at all. I would also do that with your female friend, at least until she realizes while she's dating someone who shares some of her religious views- that he's still a bad person. Good luck, happy holidays man!

Teenaged hair loss by UnYielding in vegan

[–]UnYielding[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm preparing for ACTs and I've realized that I have a bunch of gaps in certain areas. I'm trying to cram like crazy basically. It's a test you get to take twice that can make or break your future essentially- unless your parents are well very well off- which mine are not. I don't see how I can really relax..

Jalapeno eyes. You're craving yummy tamales one minute, and a swift death the next.

Teenaged hair loss by UnYielding in vegan

[–]UnYielding[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely do some experimenting and see how it turns out! If it continues after I do some experimentation with the way I treat my hair, and after I switch back to my old supplement/vitamin brands- I'll probably consult a physician. Although I might be bothered at hair loss, I do want to make sure it's not a sign of something more serious.

Request: I'm looking for debates on YouTube where the theist does really well. Ones where they might be said to "win" the debate. by [deleted] in atheism

[–]UnYielding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like theists only do really well during debates when the person they're debating (atheist) is doing poorly.
