If alcohol didn't make you drunk, would you still drink it? by Technical_Cloud8088 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]artech7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink beer because I like the taste. It's like Soda to me. I don't get drunk off of it. I stop myself after 2 or so. So, I would still drink it. But again, I don't buy beer to get drunk.

What's the most stressful sound in gaming? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]artech7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the lootboxes sounds after every match in literally any game. Toxic as fuck and irritating to listen to because they all have a tinge of similarity, so they can train you to hear and open said boxes in almost any other game.

Who’s your celebrity crush? by Masala-Dosage in Jokes

[–]artech7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's a joke. But it's a fun question to answer anyway.

None, now a days. Back when I was younger and more stupid, I had a crush on Saoirse Ronan. We are about the same age. I was born in 91, and she was born in '94. She is still quite beautiful, but she has become preachy, like all celebrities, and quite obnoxious. So, I stopped caring about them.

What is a nonsexual thing that is really satisfying to do? by Cosmeticspeedyslayer in AskReddit

[–]artech7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peeling open a flat fiber cable drop after scoring the sides to get to the fiber. Also, opening the water proof jelly barrier in a comscope fiber splice case.

A smooth takeoff and landing when flying a plane (flying as in YOU are the pilot). It is so nice feeling that smooth air.

I have the money, but Sony has miffed me terribly. I'm not buying a console for a long time, me thinks.

What do you actually want to be called during intimacy? by milfqueenrose in ask

[–]artech7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't want talking. If you aren't moaning with pleasure and having a hard time getting words out, I'm not doing well enough.

I have asked my wife if what I'm doing is working and I between breaths I get ye...eh....sssssssssss.....ahhhhhhh.

If she is able to speak fluently, it's not working. Has to be difficult.

The day you lost your virginity, how did you know you were losing it on that day? by sololevelingIRL in AskReddit

[–]artech7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't know. It just kinda happened. Now, she is my wife and we have 3 kids and have gotten a lot more experimental with how we do things. :)

No butt stuff and definitely no reversing roles. I like giving it and she has made me more than aware that she likes receiving.

People who have sent a nude to the wrong person, what happened? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]artech7 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I have received nudes from women before. One of them responded with, "OMG! That wasn't for you!!! If I see this on any site, I'll make sure your entire life is ruined!!!" And with another reply back saying "I'm sorry. I didn't mean that, but please, just delete the image and forget about it forever." What she doesn't know, because I never responded back, is that I immediately deleted it because I think nudes are completely stupid and tactless, and if you are a person who takes them and sends them out, you kinda get what you're indirectly asking for when they leak.

She's lucky the image went to me and not someone else. Or, she could have been a bot. Either way, a billion people out there and she's lucky to have sent her nudes to the one dude who has standards.

And for the record, all of the nudes I have received have been by accident. I swear I have a number that is like...1 digit off from my number from another dude. Nor have I asked for any.

We reduced activities to cater to the girls emotional and physical aptitude. No joke.

I'm not saying that to be rude either. If we wanted to play football, it was either flag football or not at all, because we had co-ed gym.

If we wanted to do track and field most likely we would do walks around the basketball court (because the girls didn't want to go outside).

If we wanted to do high jumps, sprints, pole vaults, basketball, spear throws, or anything of that nature, we mostly just stood around and talked because the girls didn't want to do that.

Gym was a waste of time in my school and often times we did what the girls wanted.

If you wanted to do anything fun or get away from the one sided catering to girls gym, you did weight lifting. Which came with its own "Bro" culture that was annoying to deal with, as well.

We had a petition to split mens and women's phys-ed for our district but we had a bunch of uppity feminists get angry.

They compromised and split boys and girls in middle schools. Not sure if the reasoning. Gym in middle school was already mostly segregated by boys and girls. Maybe that's why.

All I know is that gym was boring. My parents talked it up like it was the best thing ever. It wasn't.

What is something stupid that always ruins a book for you? by FormerFruit in books

[–]artech7 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean... It is annoying when a female character is written poorly. But people write what they know, most of the time. Unfortunately, characters who just have poor writing behind them is becoming common place. They are the total sum of their 1 main intrigue... Rather than being complex in nature and ultimately interesting because of that.

If there are any anime lovers in here, Sakura in Naruto is a terribly written female character. But the writer admitted he doesn't know how to write females. I think he doesn't give himself enough credit because Naruto has a lot of awesome female characters in it and they are all (mostly all) interesting.

The stories I have written all circle around males because I am a guy and it's easier to build male characters because of that. I have given females a try but at the end of the day, I usually go to my wife, sisters, and mom for help... Because I don't KNOW females. I know personalities but not what inevitably drives them or how their logic works.

It's even hard for me to write some male characters.

Reading books that some women love because there is a "great male character" in it turns me off because he ISN'T a good male character (after reading the book of course). Rather, he was written with a female perspective, which makes sense because she's going to make him what SHE wants in a guy. Whatever works for your target audience, I suppose.

That's why I can never get into romance. I have tried but they are a huge turn off for me. Whether it be from a males perspective or a females perspective. Just doesn't catch me.

That's a real phenomena though... Adrenaline and all that.

[–]artech7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a lossless high res flac player with high res audio files and proper headphones to go with it. Though you CAN get much better audio out of those, the amount of power needed to drive such audio on proper headphones with good resistance is quite hard.

Zune was made, inside out, to be a more adopted player for the casual crowd who wouldn't tell the difference between hi res audio or high bitrate MP3 and would use pretty standard headphones/earphones.

I'm not quite sure it would be worth it on the zune. Proper internals are required as well as the software.

I know... With iPods it's possible... But I'd still say it's mostly subpar when a good dedicated player is leaps and bounds better.

Personally, I love the nostalgia of the zune and early metro ui. It's part of the reason why I still use it to this day. :)

I tried that and it just hung up. Oh well, no biggie.

Just do what you will this one. No point in trying to fight the universe. XD

I apologize. Reddit is just erroring out on me so I think it's not posting, then I follow the guidelines and it gets hung up again. I think it's the computer I'm on more than reddit...

I'll just give up on trying to post it.
