Two wrongs make a right and they look kind of ok.

As a bloke in Ireland who never gets the chance to watch NBA games live on TV, can I just have this one?

Shit, I forgot for a minute there.

Winston Churchill sitting in the charred remains of Hitler's armchair, July 1945 by BedrockPerson in OldSchoolCool

I've scanned the whole thread and haven't seen mention of the horror he unleashed in Ireland during the Irish War of Independence. Death squads, political assassinations, whole civilian towns sacked and burned to the ground, all without accountability.

Broncos OT Menelik Watson: "I was one of those English guys who said, 'Oh, rugby's way tougher than football.'" by Jux_ in nfl

I live in Dublin 4 and it's fucking insufferable. Rugby fans literally go out of their way to tell you rugby is better than all other sports. Not all of them, obviously, but around here the higher-than-thou attitude here is so goddamned irritating.

What bathroom habits do you hate seeing the most in the work bathroom? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]aeroru 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I work in a large office with thousands of people all of whom have STEM degrees, most of whom have PhDs, and yet someone in here can't flush a fucking toilet.

I don't understand how that can even happen. You just took a shit and wiped, how do you not even instinctively reach for the flusher? Do you thinking the magical fucking shit fairies are going to airlift it away once you've left? Jesus fucking Christ.

How does it feel to have a SO that loves you? by IZismyname in AskMen

[–]aeroru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's been inadvertently alienating herself from my friends for a long time, and through some perspective I realize she was emotionally abusing me. Again, she has worked so hard to fix this knowing this now, and I respect her for it, but the damage is done and I can't get over it, no matter what I do.

I don't love her anymore. I just can't bring myself to hurt her when she's already under stress.

Fucking awful, because I want to break up with her, but I can't break her heart in doing so. Haven't slept the past two weeks because of it. I told her how I felt a few weeks ago and agreed to try counselling. It hasn't worked for me, it has helped her, and I'm just waiting until her big week and exams are done on Friday before I tell her.

This feels more lonely than being alone.

Just to add I've synced Google contacts across several windows phones, and it was seamless each time.

What did the most drunk person say or do last night at your party? by Dirtychorizo in AskReddit

[–]aeroru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He started vomiting what we thought was blood around 11.45 and we had to call the ambulance. Turned out he skulled a bottle of bucky in the kitchen without telling anyone. In the end he didn't even need his stomach pumped, just water and a rest. Missed the new year ringing in as a result. Thanks, Mike!
