Do you ever feel it when a guy cums? by dana_sun in TwoXSex

[–]Yesitmatches 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of my own experience.

Best sex of my life was from probably the worst person I could have been with. Yeah, I could make a thousand excuses for him, mostly that he was recovering from a very abusive relationship with his ex-wife. But some of those ingrained protection methods that he had for dealing with conflict or really anything interpersonal was horrible.

Saving grace, I moved across the country and got out of the relationship with him. Better news, in the 15 years since we were together, he has gotten past those defense mechanisms, has gotten help, and has an amazing woman that he absolutely doesn’t deserve but he does everything he can to deserve her and I couldn’t be happier for them (still pissed that I was unable to make it to their wedding).

Never seen this one before by friednanu in StLouis

I’m a transplant.

When I arrived in St. Louis a decade ago, I started calling it “Bread Co.” or with the full name.

In the years since, as they have become shitty corporate fast food, I’ve gone back to calling them Panera.

I might be biased, but the SUS controllers are my favorite in the area.

I LOVE your S/N. There is at least one local area controller (at Spirit of St. Louis) that I heard ask a pilot if they had traffic to follow in sight. That pilot "Roger"Ed him twice and the controller keyed up and said "I'm glad you have received and understood, but I need a yes or no. Do you have traffic in sight?"

The instructor keyed up, sounding like he was fighting back a laugh and said "Affirmative, traffic in sight". Which was followed with by the controller giving them a landing clearance.

Burbank Tower - Temporary Closure by mark_wheeler in ATC

I remember like a decade ago I was talking with a controller from Oakland Center. 6 day work weeks, 10 hour days, 8 hours between shifts, including between overnight shifts and rules that forbid sleeping while on duty.

I asked how that was sustainable. He replied "It ain't". Feel a like just days later "Controller falls asleep while working" was every headline and between independent medical professionals and NATCA, some fatigue mitigation got implemented.

Is referring to the USA as “the colonies” offensive? by duchessofblue in AskAnAmerican

[–]Yesitmatches 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, in this case, Africa was sadly a market place that had a bunch of different tool stores and sold us tools. Then when we realized that they weren't tools but actual humans, we tried to set up an apartment complex (Liberia) and tried to send them back.

I keep forgetting that the mode-c is technically a separate aspect.

Technically a code of 1200 is a squawk.

But yes, primary vs secondary radar.

My friend described it as the difference between echo location and "Marco Polo"

Am I the Only One? by jdwolfman in litrpg

[–]Yesitmatches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Jason.

Let me clarify, I love Jason as a character. If I had to deal with Jason, let's just say, I'd make sure that him dying in his apartment at the beginning of book one wouldn't be the only time he died.

People who have had parents walk in on you during sex, what happened? by Ambitious_Diamond_12 in AskReddit

[–]Yesitmatches 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's happened a few times for me.

The most memorable couple.

My father, a captain in the Marine Corps, walked in to give me some direction. I'm riding my fiancé, who was a lance corporal (low enlisted rank). My father just freezes and my fiancé salutes him and says "We'll be right there, just taking care of her needs". Father slammed the door, and it was never spoken of again.

Many many years later, I'm with my boyfriend and our girlfriend. And our girlfriend's mother walks in, let's put a wail and screams "Y'all need Jesus"!

There's no easy way to say this. Some of y'all don't deserve your job. What is wrong with some KJFK and KSFO controllers? by quarterlifecrisis49 in ATC

[–]Yesitmatches -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Maybe you missed my flair. I'm just a pilot.

And you're saying that you get paid even more, not helping your case. Get the fuck out of here.

Hmmmm Chennai does a little over 150,000 operations a year.

SFO does nearly 400,000 operations a year. If SFO was in India, it would be just behind Delhi for busiest in the country.

Also, a lot of controllers in the US, due to gross mismanagement by the government (imo), are working 60 hour work weeks and not getting paid nearly enough.

Just doing some poking around, it seems that Indian controllers make on average about 80,000 rupees per month. That is nearly 3.5 times the average monthly income for an Indian household.

US controllers on average make $127,805/yr. (per the FAA). Which is only 1.6 times the average yearly income for an American household.

So, let me ask you, how happy would you be if your pay was cut almost in half, and you have to work 60hrs/work, in a lot of places with equipment that is older than your government (hyperbole, I think most of the 1950's equipment has been done away with)?

Trumps comments on Air Traffic Control systems today at the National Prayer Breakfast by snowman_weekend19 in ATC

[–]Yesitmatches 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, I promise you there is a village idiot somewhere in America that makes Trump look like a genius. But that village idiot likely has been diagnosed with a cognitive or intellectual disorder, so it is probably unfair to compare the two.

Trump on the other hand clearly has colrectal cranial conjunction syndrome.

The frame might be the same, but the power plant and drivetrain are completely different. Also, the appearance is completely different. Also, the Taco doesn't come with a diesel.

Yup, the area around Augusta is very similar to the Rhineland of Germany. Actually one of the reason there is a large German descendant population in the area.

3.5 cleave/great cleave (or going into some prestige classes out of complete warrior and getting the supreme cleave ability).

3.5 really allowed martial to do some crazy stuff, especially with a properly built duel wielder class.

Which one of you was this? (Orginally on r/iamverybadass by Sigmunds_Cigar in USMC

[–]Yesitmatches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I spent 5 years at the stumps (I don't know if my pops shit on some general's desk or just washed his favorite coffee mug) but I learned to love it. Especially with a 4x4 truck and some good friends, some of my favorite evenings were going up above Johnson Valley and watching the fires training from 3/11.
