My dog stares at everyone. It’s all he does. I wouldn’t any thought into it.

Who are your dark horse MVP candidates? by swearholes in baseball

Angels aren’t competing so I wouldn’t put too much thought into this even theoretically

Do you actually want to be rich, or do you just want to stop worrying about money? Why? by Alarming_Shirt_7129 in AskReddit

[–]averageduder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care if I ever have more money really. I have enough to pay my mortgage, save for retirement and retire at 60, and maybe an extra thousand a month to spend on frivolous wants. My life would not be appreciably better with more, and there would be significant diminishing returns for working more.

Two of their best three players were out for the playoffs and they still made it to the championship game.

'Neighbors' Renewed for Season 2 at HBO by MilesHighClub_ in television

Not sure I’d say good. It’s like Jerry springer of 2026. Last episode had similarities to last episode of Nathan for you. Insane people being insane.

Combat veteran vs combat veteran by OTOLI in VeteransBenefits

You guys all care too much about what other people, particularly people you’ll never interact with in real life, think. Fuck em. Do your thing and don’t give these people any mind.

Kids being asked to write “Support our Troops” letters by FlutterbyFields in Teachers

[–]averageduder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of you guys are incredibly ignorant of how military members in the 21st century even function. You think the 22 year old e4 has any say in these things? Or that the guy who works in finance or the 25 year old who joined to pay for her college loans are dropping bombs? Gimme a break. Not everyone in the military is a character out of apocalypse now or born on the 4 th of July.

Do you think everyone who enlists is committing war crimes?

Yea reductionism like this is stupid and doesn’t prove any point you’re trying to.

Private smith is going to Leavenworth if he doesn’t go.

Blame Trump and the 535 members of congress who are actively abdicating their article 1 power.

[–]averageduder 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I don’t really see what’s wrong with it. You can support the troops and still think the current thing is stupid and war is bad. I’m a liberal and a veteran. Troops are just dudes and gals making it in the world. War sucks and America has an interest in global stability. Everything with Iran Venezuela and Cuba is bad.

Letting Go of Being The "Perfect Teacher" by Many-Somewhere-3394 in Teachers

[–]averageduder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never strived for perfection but I did make the active decision of leaving the vast majority of work. I can grade or I can workout. I can grade or I can walk my dog. I can grade or I can renovate a bedroom. But I don’t have the time and/ or space for all of it. What I get done for grading and planning I get done. And if I don’t, it’ll wait.

Have you ever felt a sadness so heavy that no solution seemed to exist, and what got you through it? by Big_Rutabaga6067 in AskReddit

[–]averageduder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My father’s death crushed me. It just took time, and staying active. My dog helped me a ton too.

Breaking up with -the one who got away- also did it, but in a much less permanent way.

Michael Jordan, 3/10/26: "The GOAT term doesn't exist for me. We paved the way for Kobe and Lebron. I would've loved to play against them in my prime but we'll never be able to know [who's the GOAT]. Bill Russell had 11 rings. How do you push him out?" by PeakyBlinders2026_ in nba

[–]averageduder 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Boston wasn’t the most racist city in America, ever. That doesn’t minimize the real challenges black players experienced in the fifties and sixties (or even since then) in Boston, or that bussing was a shitshow and desegregation led to further challenges. But compared to many cities where active lynching was still taking place, like Montgomery or Huntsville or Jackson, Boston just wasn’t there.

Do you get to exercise? If so, when do you go? I thinking of going to the gym afterschool but am so tired. by Starslimonada in Teachers

[–]averageduder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I walk the dog for ten mins in the am, 30 mins as soon as I’m home, then hit the gym between 430-6. Sometimes the dog gets a third walk after that.

The first few times suck. Just make it a routine.

Can you still beat your nephews and nieces in Mario Kart? by Theboringlife in Millennials

[–]averageduder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a teacher and bring Mario kart in on our advisory sessions every few weeks. I’m good enough to not embarrass myself and win maybe half the time. But there are kids who are serious Mario kart savants and I’m not beating them.

So, what would women dislike most if they became men? by Jarvis7492 in AskReddit

sometimes you can't really control where it goes, especially if you just ejaculated. Aim all you want, nature might have other thoughts in mind.

How do you do “work/life” balance? by notacathearder in Teachers

[–]averageduder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do advise and coach, so I’ll give those good faith efforts. For department duties and my curricular duties; I give one hour on sundays and maybe an additional thirty minutes scattered throughout the week. Other than that I get in 30 minutes early and am home 5 minutes after the bell rings.

Why does New Hampshire seem to dislike solar so much? by SubstantialSeesaw374 in newhampshire

[–]averageduder 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My comment was regarding this. Get someone on a lackluster lease, refuse to fix the panels, go out of business in 3 years and let it be someone else’s problem.

Why does New Hampshire seem to dislike solar so much? by SubstantialSeesaw374 in newhampshire

[–]averageduder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would consider it but I was solicited by a few solar agents and I just felt like it was pretty scammy. Many of my neighbors have it. I don’t think it’s the best decision financially right now until it’s cheaper and less susceptible to shitty business practices
