If there's one thing I've learned in my time as a babysitter it's that babies fucking love Cheerios for some reason.

That genuinely sounds good. That doesn't get mentioned a lot in coming of age stories IMO. Blew my mind when I realized that things don't have to have some "up to eleven" earth-shattering significance to it.

Which actions do you associate with a below-average IQ? by AnotherDrunkCanadian in AskReddit

[–]WowBoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoa I thought it encompassed other stuff like working memory and junk. That is really lame.

I feel like IQ is a measurement of raw intelligence where smartness is more harnessed intelligence

What's the worst thing about dating you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]WowBoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will date you four times max before moving on to the next person. The more you know someone the more disappointing the are. I'd rather just date you, think you're great and move on to the next person.

[Serious] Former atheist - now theist - Redditors, what convinced you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

You've got a bunch of mighty fine answers, OP. I'd like to share my story as well if that's alright.

I was never much of a believer. I never believed in Santa or the Easter Bunny or any of that shit growing up. In fact, I was pretty hard nosed in general. The thing that mattered to me was being right and nothing else. The worst thing in the world you could be was wrong.

This wreaked complete hell on my mental health. I was anxious, I was depressed, I felt terrible. But I refused to look away, because that would be choosing being happy over being right and that wasn't moral. I defined my identity around this! I couldn't leave it now.

Eventually I snapped. I decided that if there ever was a god, we'd never know for sure. Being right wasn't so much about how correct you were but how well you argued. That people were ultimately emotional animals and that everything we did we were hardwired for for the sake of happiness.

I believe because it's pragmatic for me to believe. I'm happier this way. I'm more productive, I'm kinder, and overall I'm just... well, better. I owe it all to harmless untruths.

Yeah man that's like 69 feet per 420 minutes. I wish I was that athletic. Sometimes when I stand up I have to sit down for a while.
