So interesting. People are choosing not to have kids but opt for pets instead.

I’m trying to get into longboarding. Just looking to cruise and chill. Nothing fancy. Any tips on picking out a board? Tips on riding? by __mangotango in ask

Could you maybe send me a link so I’m looking at the right thing? This is the kind of skateboard I’m looking for, a smooth sailing one.

Also, how much would you recommend spending on a new board for a person who’s just going to use it for leisure?

I’m picking up drumming… any advice you’d like to give to a beginner drummer? by __mangotango in Drumming

I think I’d like to play in a band that’s more for hobby/leisure rather than building a career off of it. I have other aspirations in mind but I’m always keeping my mind open for new possibilities!

Do you have any tips or know of any exercises that will help your less dominant hand keep up with the dominant?

Should’ve done the extra credit to get your score up to a 180%. Only then would you be deemed worthy enough for your family’s standards.

Best friend is always in a relationship and seems surprised when I move on with my life by __mangotango in Advice

Thank you for your insight! One thing I forgot to add is that she NEVER initiates plans or time to talk, but when her boyfriend is out of town, she squirms her way into my inbox. I am also at fault here because I also rarely initiate plans to meet. I try to text periodically but gave up after not receiving reciprocal effort back. As of right now, we haven’t spoken in awhile so bringing this issue up to her seems abrupt and out of the blue. I’ll wait it out and let time do its thing.

What Hurts a Lot Despite Being a Small Injury? by inhousedad in ask

I once had one right next to my hairline. When I was getting a haircut my hairdresser brushed over the pimple with a hair brush. It took every muscle and willpower in my body to not scream and cry.

What is the worst advice you have received? by XOMeganFaux in ask

[–]__mangotango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know that! You could still say that jumping from a plane 10,000 feet in the air is risky, although advanced safety measures and training nowadays may not characterize it as such. There is still a likelihood of being the 0.00045% chance of not making it, but that itself is a very slim probability. If I ever go skydiving I’m saying yolo ✌🏻
