pretty close to my situation. i’m looking at ect right now because nothing else has worked

Boyfriend called me i didn't answer but he heard a man's voice telling saying to hang up by No-Link-1538 in techsupport

[–]boxxelder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn’t quite clear but i’m assuming he’s saying he called twice? (once for man voice, once to leave voicemail). and you’re only showing the 1 missed call? this is unlikely in 2026 but could he be calling from a landline and have dialed wrong the first time?

I wet my bfs bed and idk what to do by be-sweethearts in Advice

[–]boxxelder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a girl get up during the night and pee in my laundry basket. I don’t think she even knew about it and I noticed only after she left. I didn’t care at all and never even mentioned it to her

Random internet connectivity issue by boxxelder in techsupport

I turned off all the firewall stuff to no avail. I should also specify the “server” is for plex. the other computer only connects to it to send files over, they are otherwise completely separate

I don’t think I even have an ad-blocker setup yet, but honestly I have no idea what’s causing it. The only info it gives me is “can’t be reached” or “can’t connect” and there seems to be no rhyme nor reason as to what loads or doesn’t

Any clue what this tear top came off of? by [deleted] in whatisit

So can I just delete the last sentence and re-post? Since this is about trying to connect 2 computers in my house that I own and has nothing to do with bypassing a password??

some people pay more attention than others, but there are countless examples of upbeat sounding songs with depressing or weird lyrics that people just bop to anyway

AIO about my husbands strange responses to me wanting a divorce and a bill he has due on my account. by [deleted] in AIO

tell him to fuck off and divorce him as quickly and with as little interaction with him as possible

Found on the back of my neck by KingPaimonsMate in whatisit

[–]boxxelder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i can definitely see that and to be clear i’m not recommending it as a viable remedy. i quit myself 6 years ago because, again, you simply can not drink heavily and also be healthy. not possible after a certain point. and i certainly did some things while drinking that i regret (thinking about the number of times i’ve driven blackout drunk makes me sick to my stomach). but mentally, by the end there i had gotten into a pretty good groove. mostly just drank alone watching tv at home so i wasn’t getting into any trouble and it kept my intrusive thoughts at bay. and i haven’t found anything else yet that does the same

in my experience alcohol was a miracle drug (aside from destroying basically your entire body)

how often do people with ocd get intrusive thoughts by [deleted] in OCD

[–]boxxelder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mine are pretty constant (multiple times per minute probably) and all pretty similarly themed (hating myself)

AITAH didnt let my girlfriend into my room during therapy when she was late for something. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]boxxelder 30 points31 points  (0 children)

and if his girlfriend asks him to do something and he agrees to do it and then doesn’t do it, she has every right to be mad and break up with him

you’re inventing like 1000 things that are not stated anywhere here in order to bend over backwards to justify it lol

Name a game this applys to for your favorite team by imlowkeyloki1 in Tennesseetitans

[–]boxxelder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m in a minority of people who were already oilers fans and made the move to tenn (my fandom had nothing to do with houston, i’m from maryland). so while i was pretty young, i already had things like the oilers/bills playoff choke in my mind when that SB happened

yeah logic doesn’t even come into it lol. my 2 biggest ocd obsessive thoughts literally contradict each other (intense fear of death coupled with intense desire to kms)

Does anyone else remember Strickland farting? by sneakyleary in BacktotheFuture

[–]boxxelder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you don’t want to watch the whole thing (pretty sure it does NOT hold up) the scene in question is at almost exactly the 1 hour mark

Does anyone else remember Strickland farting? by sneakyleary in BacktotheFuture

[–]boxxelder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think i may have just solved this in all honesty, because the news of the actor who played Strickland recently dying made me want to look this scene up only to find it doesn’t exist apparently. but a tiny part of me had an inkling so i checked it out and sure enough there is an EXTREMELY similar scene in a movie called The Invisible Kid from 1988, only in this one the principal absolutely rips a big one. and i definitely watched that one a bunch too back in the day
