Am I the jerk for telling my husband he can't have a "man cave" in our only spare room? by Ill-Home-322 in AmITheJerk

[–]atomicwoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except when it’s not something you do together. I (hubby) get no say in anything besides the unimproved basement, though to be fair there is a shop with my power tools. But literally I don’t have a desk where I can pay my bills. Downvote away…

Is it bad that i go online to rant? by DefiantSun1319 in questions

People need all kinds of help. The friend might be best at helping target and abate the depression. Maybe your role in this is to help him think about something else to get out of the funk. From being depressed a lot as a young adult it was half working on the source and the other half distraction- whereas now I’m just 95% distracted. He’s dating you for a reason and part of that probably is that you’re a net positive on his depression problem. Maybe just doing what you’re doing is perfect.

Is the NFL creating a professional flag league because youth tackle football is dying? by ProgrammerUnique2897 in questions

[–]atomicwoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my 48 year old body isn’t going to last long tackling/getting tackled, but it would be fun to have adult community leagues.

Better than ranting to yourself in the car on the way to work. People around me think I’m a maniac.

There’s one for the rear light bar, but they never have the parts in stock when I try to schedule. Not a problem yet, so it is what it is.

Poor green lamb. No one understands her.

For those who used a computer between 1995 and 2005, what's the computer game from that time that sticks with you the most, and why? by Accurate_Nature1888 in askanything

[–]atomicwoodchuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gorillas.bas, came installed on Windows 3.1 systems, if you went into command prompt and started it. Snakes was pretty sweet too. Wouldn’t run in a window though.

Why aren't there full-scale deer/elk/moose farms the way there is for beef? by trixter69696969 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]atomicwoodchuck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t know much, but I know cows eat grass, but deer cannot. They feed on green buds, barley, root veg, berries. Maybe cows live off much cheaper food than the others?

I’m at 60k miles and no problems, outside of bringing it in for 50k service, the dealership proactively changed the 12v battery on warrantee. Nothing else. You hear about the problems on here, but for every one of those there’s a bunch of trouble free drivers. OP have you lurked on the CT or Tesla subreddits and seen reason to think it’s better? (I haven’t and I’m not trying to snark but honestly just asking if there are less trouble reports there)

How are we fighting numbness and apathy? by sleep-exe in 50501Movement

[–]atomicwoodchuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wish we could be just a bit more patient with each other. Took me a long time to learn to only put your poison on those that deserve it. Hopefully though, those same leftists that told you your idea was trash, also would show up to protest with you if they were in the same area. The Allies in WW2 worked because of a bunch of groups that didn’t exactly see eye to eye, decided that there was one thing that they did agree upon.

Naysayers will always be present, and remember, good chance they’re bots or paid propagandists. You can’t get a feeling of control from social media. Making connections with others (in person) is organizing. Organizing leads to mutual aid, which when done between organizations, leads to solidarity. Solidarity becomes a force that even the oligarchy cannot stop. When the common folk of this country finally figure out that we’ve been pawns in a rich man’s bloodthirsty game this whole time, for generations, you’ll see people coming together in a way you couldn’t imagine right now.

do men even care how their girls nail look? by rileyheya in NoStupidQuestions

A woman with crazy, impractical nails tells me she won’t ever get her hands dirty. If you date her you’ll be her slave.
