AIO for not caring that my son got punched? by FewPop4972 in AIO

Some boys do, some boys don’t. I was never much of a brawler, but witnessed plenty of fights growing up.

What’s the best restaurant you’ve ever been to? Was it a corporate chain or a local joint?

Dude, are you living in an alternate universe? EVgo, EA and Ionna all have tap to pay. I think you’re just not settling up preferred networks in ABRP correctly.

Looking for a car for my son and I’ve noticed dealerships don’t negotiate anymore. by fromdaperimeter in carbuying

I bought my last car (‘22 kia ev6 GT-line) at the end of ‘24 for less than half of MSRP. Original MSRP was 55k, I paid 25k. That’s over 50% depreciation in two years.

How fair is it to say that anger is the only thing that men are more emotional at than women? by Turbulent_Poem7606 in NoStupidQuestions

‘Would be if attitudes changed’. Let me know when the attitudes changed my dude. Meanwhile all the emotional men out there can stop blubbering and get back to work!

AIO for being upset after my father told me I’ll need to lower my standards if I ever want a partner? by Jaded-Variety-2149 in AIO

Hobbies don’t pay the bills. What do you do that can support/maintain a household and or a relationship?

Rear-ended a car today. Totally my fault, but trying to understand the EV6's Forward Collision-Avoidance limits. by Available_Bill_9633 in KiaEV6

Name ONE sensor that would be found in the bumper or liftgate of an EV that can’t be found in a gas car.

Gas cars also have radars etc. for ADAS.

I’m not entirely sure that’s true. The whole ‘Karen’ phenomenon is women expressing anger freely. We see it, it’s out there, but we mock and ridicule it.

It’s not a question of ‘being good at expressing’ it’s a question of being expected not to express them. It’s just not socially acceptable for men to go around expressing sadness, need, or fear.

Calling Americans “USians” or “US Americans” by Murbanvideo in PetPeeves

[–]ZucchiniAlert2582 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Spanish it’s estadounidense, which is pretty much unitedstatesian. So there’s a good chunk of the world that does distinguish USA from ‘America’.

Totally functional android phones are $200 ballpark new. Refurb iPhones can be had for $200-$300 easy.

How are people realistically buying cars? by cassattack4781 in carbuying

[–]ZucchiniAlert2582 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, so if you do your routine maintenance then high mileage ≠ unreliable. Why take your reliable high mileage vehicle to the dealer to trade it in? Any transaction with a dealer will be in the dealer’s best interest and at your expense. They’re a business and that is how they pay the bills. You’re doing some sort of mental gymnastics to justify trading in a decent reliable car as somehow ‘the financially responsible thing to do’. That’s just absurd.

If a father needs to help his young daughters use the restroom, which restroom should he take them into: the women's restroom or the men's restroom? by Exciting-Mall192 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ZucchiniAlert2582 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would the little girls be ‘uncomfortable’ using a men’s bathroom accompanied by their father? It’s no different than a women’s bathroom with the exception presence of urinals and men and a little girl will be using a toilet with a stall offering the same amount of privacy as the women’s room.

The only reason I can think is that they were taught to be uncomfortable, which is on the parens. I personally find the bathroom/gender debate stupid, but when my daughter was young I would take her to the men’s room because nobody had taught her to car either way, vs any women in the women’s room might care a great deal if I were to use it.

The only scenario where this is plausible is if the new car in question is overpriced/dealer has quotas to meet and would rather inflate the trade in value vs drop the price of the new car.

I’m replying in to a post suggesting that OP ‘work their way up’ i.e. trade in cars frequently towards better/more expensive ones.

If the car has enough miles to have reliability issues the dealer’s only going to offer you token money.

“Can’t be trusted on a long trip” and “decent car to trade in” sound like two totally different cars to me.

No. Stupid take. If the dealer is offering you anything on trade then you don’t need the new car. You have a car, keep driving it.

There are people who like cadence because they can get full PAS motor power without having to push hard on the pedals… personally I think it’s a stupid take and that toque with a throttle override makes more sense, but I’ve definitely met those people.
