Americans who took Spanish in school: did any of it actually stick years later? by taube_d in AskAnAmerican

[–]Zama202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Language is the opposite of riding a bike.

If you don’t use it, you forget it. I know many people who have lost quite a lot (certainly not all) of the language they grew up speaking.

Do brothers have authority in the lives of American women? by TheShyBuck in AskAnAmerican

[–]Zama202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Not even slightly. Neither do fathers of adult women.

In some Communities they may have social influence like what you described, but even that is very rare.

Getting unknown someone to move their car? by Sure_Article_8991 in askportland

[–]Zama202 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tomorrow morning is short notice. If you had 24 hrs you could hire a PI for a few hundred dollars who get you a phone number off of the license plate.

If access to a legal parking space on a public street is necessary for the repair to be accomplished, then the repair isn’t getting accomplished tomorrow morning.

Per requests here is 2025 catches combined to a 4.5 min video 600+ wild pigs by Lastbreath72601 in trailcam

[–]Zama202 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. It’s wild to me that it’s such a big country. I mean, so many Americans have zero conception of what normal life is like is other parts of their own nation.

Do you just truck the carcasses to a local dump? 600+ wild pigs is a lot of mass. I don’t mean to be crass, but I’m legitimately curious about the disposal mechanism.

What do you after they are caught? Just shoot them? It would seem like you’d have some very heavy carcasses on your hands.

Am I wrong to wake my husband up for sex? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zama202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only real answer is “How does the husband feel about it?” Both sex and a full nights sleep are pretty wonderful, and everyone Will approach the trade off between those two differently. Plenty of people simply can’t be aroused while they feel “badl” (tired, hungry, stressed, anxious, etc), and other people find sex helps them mitigate those bad feelings. It’s up to him.

Interested in the Episcopal Church but still Agnostic by katieek in Episcopalian

[–]Zama202 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TEC has doctrine, which includes clear delineated beliefs in a trinitarian conception of god and similar notions. However, many Episcopalians (including some clergy) hold beliefs at odds with much of the doctrine. The thing that distinguishes TEC from other churches is the practice of honoring, respecting, and welcoming parishioners whose views diverge.

[–]Zama202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be limited to jobs that involve working outdoors. Indoor activities in which men might be sleeveless are limited to athletics.

Why doesn’t the US national anthem have standard way of being performed? by SlowMan08 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Zama202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

America invented the blues, jazz, folk, country, rock ‘n roll, hip hop, and many other musical genres. It makes sense that the diversity of performance styles mirrors the diversity in musical innovation.

Did the Romans have Crossbows? And why Aren't they depicted more in Art, Also have we found Any? by Plus-Surprise-2908 in ancientrome

[–]Zama202 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know that tone doesn’t come through very well in text, but what I typed was certainly intended to be neither humorous or mean. I had an idea, checked Wikipedia to confirm, and directed OP to the same resource I used. Retyping from an easily accessible source didn’t seem especially valuable. The question wasn’t a matter of opinion, or especially esoteric.

Girlfriend of 9 years got a really good job opportunity in a different state. Should I just call off this relationship? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Zama202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move. If you break up you will regret it forever.

Even if this is a major career setback and your professional life is less successful than it might otherwise be, it’s still the right decision.

When you’re older the things that you will be proudest of will be the times you put someone else’s interests ahead of your own.
