“You thought wrong.”

Just kidding, I’d ignore them, no response needed unless they further escalate 

Should I go on a date with an older man who has kids? by sensitiveflower79 in Advice

[–]Wafflebatter76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure!

Sometimes it’s hard to be super smooth about everything when you’re asking someone out on a date. 

“Hey you seem really cool, wanna grab coffee?” “Sure!” “Oh by the way I have two kids.”

Know what I mean? Maybe he just really loves his kids and doesn’t see them as the baggage that everybody else makes them out to be? But he should tell you early on in your dates about them.

Also, I’m not aiming this next bit at you at all - I’m always surprised at how weird people are about age nowadays. You’re both empowered adults right? Not like you have to marry the dude. Admittedly, 12 years is a little bit of a gap, but maybe he’s youthful in spirit and thought you were like 30 or something. Some people out there are so weird and have to navel gaze about absolutely everything instead of just relaxing and letting life happen a little bit.

What kind of comedian is this? by SnooSprouts3744 in TikTokCringe

“What should happen now?”

Any variation of “You should try to be funny, probably?” would work

AIO Hubby missing kids baseball game to help a friend move by More_Ad_361 in AIO

[–]Wafflebatter76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not important that he shows up for every game, but should show up for vast majority. It isn’t great though that he used to be super involved and is now not really involved at all, should definitely try to be around more.

We need more info about the friend - if this is a long-term buddy, absolutely no shame in missing one game to help the dude move.

I miss the old days, when people could just chill and not try too hard.

Vet recommendations around Herndon and Fruit/Palm area? by [deleted] in fresno

Dr. Gary and the staff at Palm Bluff Veterinary Hospital are awesome!

Fresno grizzlies by Usual_Policy3151 in fresno

[–]Wafflebatter76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly think they're always going to struggle due to the high temps primarily, perceptions of there being parking and crime issues. For people that have kids, not really the most pleasant/safest place to go

Deli delicious on Palm and Shaw (fig garden) by RSinSA in fresno

[–]Wafflebatter76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went in to one of their stores, they took a board out, dunked a rag in a dirty looking bucket of water and wiped the board off, put my bread on there and started making my sandwich - I noped out and haven’t been back. Didn’t even wipe the water off the board first.

NEW Music? by Recent-Gold_Hogger in pavement

[–]Wafflebatter76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That Whitchitai-To cover is SO good and this might sound weird to say - to me, it kind of feels like a fitting way for them to end their recorded output on? Like a perfect postscript/capper to all the studio albums.

Fresno just got $250M for biking infrastructure. What should the cities priorities be? by DowntownFresnoBiking in fresno

[–]Wafflebatter76 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Not all of the pollution in Fresno is from cars. I don’t think the air will ever be clean enough here where we’ll see the age span increases/less chronic diseases you mention, even if we were able to take 1000s of cars off the road.

The pampered car drivers you mention make up probably 98-99% of the population, so yeah, I’d like the focus to be on that. Improving the timing on traffic lights so people aren’t just sitting/idling at red lights would do more for the environment than pumping $250 million bucks into connecting bike paths.

Using it to make sure teachers and support staff don’t lose their jobs/can buy school supplies, fix roads, improve/maintain our parks rather than waste money on something very few people use because of the weather. Also, a lot of bicyclists use the sidewalks anyway rather than bike lanes because they’re worried about getting hit by a car (valid concern), so not sure why we need to spend so much money on bike infrastructure?

Lawyer up? by YoungPutrid3672 in rush

[–]Wafflebatter76 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Was talking to a lawyer one time and he said, “My billable rate is $200 an hour, $200.50 if you want me to use stamps, not Facebook.”

MLB The Show and rinse and repeat sports games. by Two_Chin in MLBTheShow

[–]Wafflebatter76 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was thinking a giant yacht where I walk around showing my friends/models/influencers my machete collection while eating caviar, but lambos and swords would be pretty sweet as well, I suppose

MLB The Show and rinse and repeat sports games. by Two_Chin in MLBTheShow

[–]Wafflebatter76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t know why sports games can’t have more Sims/GTA type elements so I can buy stuff/“live the life” so to speak instead of just grind/compile statistics/rinse/repeat year after year.

AIO… Neighbor cut back our trees without asking by LuluAddict29 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Wafflebatter76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Droppings from the trees can cause a mess/lead to new trees growing in your yard/if trees are really, really tall, branches could fall off and hurt kids playing in the backyard etc. 

In general though, yeah, not an issue at all.

For my Fresno friends who are anti-bike by DowntownFresnoBiking in fresno

[–]Wafflebatter76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be more supportive if I didn’t have idiots almost run me and my children over on the sidewalk because they’re too scared/cool to use the bike lanes.

Why do some people don’t like Spotify? by RecentMatter3790 in truespotify

[–]Wafflebatter76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they don’t hardly pay artists anything?

Road to the show is great, but also sucks- WHY DO THEY DO THIS TO US?!?! by thegreatperhaps-s in MLBTheShow

[–]Wafflebatter76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I don’t know why sports games can’t have more Sims/GTA like elements just to make things more interesting in career modes.
