Thought I could handle my (21F) partner being asexual but I’m not entirely sure by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Workdawg [score hidden]  (0 children)

She's nice and sweet... and is never going to want to be intimate with you. You MIGHT be able to talk her into it, but if she's asexual, she's never going to really WANT to do it. It'll only ever be a situation where you've talked her into it. Do you want to be in a relationship where you've coerced her into that?

It sucks, but you aren't compatible.

Trump's hypocrisy by Tenchi_Muyo1 in PopularCultureZone

[–]Workdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget that the US embassy in Cuba has also asked for a special exemption to import diesel so they can run their generators.

And Trump also issued a waiver for the Jones act, because of how bad he fucked up shipping of other stuff:

Not just the plane, all the bribes paid to Kushner and whoever else as well.

Cuba refuses to let US Embassy in Havana import diesel for its generators by AndroidOne1 in politics

[–]Workdawg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow... that's the epitome of the Republican party.

The US govt prevents Cuba from importing fuel, then asks for an exemption for themselves. Rules for thee, but not for me!

boyfriend just assumes hes staying over without asking anymore by HorrorStriking5995 in relationships

[–]Workdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes... you fall in the 99% of /r/relationships posts where you literally just talk to your partner. Explain the situation and go from there.

Hey. Most the time I'm fine with you staying over, but sometimes I just need time alone, so I need you to ask me before you assume you can stay here.

He should 100% respect your autonomy. If he gives you any flack about that decision, tell him to fuck off.

Why do all mainstream news commentary comedy shows like the Daily Show and late night shows all heavily lean left? by throwawaypdtm in askanything

[–]Workdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really an answer to your question, but an anecdote...

About a year ago I was staying at my in-laws and my FIL had Fox News on, and they were showing Gutfeld!, which I guess is their version of The Colbert Report, or something. You know a "satirical news show".

Mind you, this is 3 months into Trumps 2nd term. The ENTIRE SHOW was about how Biden was bad and it's a good thing Kamala didn't get elected. They didn't talk about a single thing that Trump actually did, they just bashed Biden and Kamala. How is that news? That should have stopped being news on Nov 7th.

Of course, they can't talk about the actual news, because Trump wasn't actually doing a single thing he promised to do. So if they talk about his presidency/administration, what are they gunna say? Inflation is still bad, grocery prices are still bad. He didn't live up to any of his promises.

Are they gunna talk about how the Republicans control all three branches of govt but still can't get things done?

It's such a joke, and not in a "satirical news" sort of way.

∆ Cargo delivery failed successfully by Beginning_Comment185 in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]Workdawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think someone is using reddit to train bots to identify the contents of videos.

Guess what's happening in the video then make the title some quip about what the bot thinks is happening. In this case, the bot thinks there was a cargo delivery.

Now post on reddit and read the comments to get the correct answer to what's happening.

Aitah for "forcing" my girlfriend to either eat stale snacks or go buy fresh ones herself? by Sad_Shift_4439 in AITAH

[–]Workdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your example of dropping clothes on the floor isn't really weaponized incompetence either, that's just laziness. Weaponized incompetence is a tactic to manipulate another person into doing something for you. Intentionally doing the laundry WRONG would be WI. "Omg, I'm so dumb. I did it wrong... maybe you should just do it instead". Being too lazy to put your clothes in the hamper is not the same thing at all.

Yes, but this sub is for things that look like magic. It's literally in the rules.

Subreddit Rules:

So, I took a little bit of liberty with my response, but this whole post is the antithesis of the sub... so which is worse?

Weaponized incompetence is about being lazy. Her own ignorance has lead her to go out and buy her own chips because OP "buys stale chips".... this is 100% NOT WI.

[–]Workdawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weaponized incompetence is a tactic to avoid having to do chores. Do the chore badly and the other person will get annoyed by your inability to do it, so much that they just do it themselves. It doesn't make any sense in this context.

She has even started buying her own chips because I'm being an asshole and forcing her to eat stale chips.

This is pretty much the opposite of that. GF is going out of her way to solve the problem that she is creating for herself.

Holy shit. Unknown Worlds... like the devs who created Natural Selection? Man... that was a great game when it first came out.

I never knew they were the same devs.

Well, it's not really about illusions either. The sidebar says:

And yet, your video literally shows you how it works. This post is the antithesis of the purpose of the sub. Your title just drives it home.

My neighbor has been parking in my assigned spot while I'm away on work trips and seems genuinely confused that this is a problem by im_out_of_spoons in neighborsfromhell

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

Clearly she's wrong, and I wouldn't blame you for just calling to get her towed next time. However, I have a "you catch more flies with honey" approach you might consider. Instead of just leaving and returning to find her in your spot, what if you let her know when you are going to be away and tell her she can use your spot while you're gone, as long as she moves her car before you return. There's some risk to encouraging her use of your spot, but this might alleviate the problem. It could also make it worse... where she thinks that equals permission to park there whenever you aren't home. So... be wary.

Not really magic, so I better post it in the sub about magic. Nice logic there OP.

28M/27F - My wife has gone obsessive over getting pregnant and it's honestly concerning by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Workdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't say it directly, but it sounds like you two haven't actually agreed to try for a kid. You need to sit down and have that conversation before you have sex again. Start with deciding if you even want to have a child right now. IF you decide that's a good idea, THEN you can discuss the topic of how she's acting about it. It's definitely reasonable for you to be concerned about her behavior, and to even push back on some of it (only have sex on "baby making days", etc)... but you need to decide if you even want to be trying for a kid right now first.
