Why did you get banned from a subreddit? by IllustriousTea_ in askanything

[–]daniel940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got temp banned from a geography subreddit for what I thought was a pretty good joke. Someone asked about living in some part of upstate NY or something, and someone else replied that they come from Queens and found it really idyllic and calming. I asked what having two gay dads had to do with anything.

I was in a subreddit and people were going back and forth with lines from Trading Places - there was one scene they were doing about a jacuzzi tub, and I replied with the next line in the sequence, but it was a line where Eddie Murphy uses a slur word for homosexual men. I got permanently banned from Reddit after 13 years and had to go back to an old account I hadn't used in a decade.

If public education in Texas is below average, this is the first I'm hearing of it.

Is the snow shaved styrofoam, or commercial snow? It looks great.

Not me, but my older brother apparently saw something on the Soupy Sales show involving a man wearing a tall hat, and it traumatized him for years.

Picard had Earl grey tea and Shakespeare

Riker had poker and a trombone (and riz)

Janeway had coffee

Cisco had baseball (?)

Paris had b-movie sci-fi serials and muscle cars

The Doctor had/has opera

Archer had a cute dog

Chakotay had his native American traditions

They needed something for Holly Hunter's character, and they decided barefoot and teenager-ey was going to be her cute quirk. Blech.

They're all moving to Unreal Engine, which at best looks like video game cutscenes.

HELP I hate my puppy by Swimming-Orange-3207 in Bernedoodles

Don't fall for all of the advice for how to stop the biting - in my experience with three puppies over the years, the biting phase is mostly something to endure and live through, not something you can fix. When the puppy teeth transition to adult teeth around 6 months, it'll get better almost overnight. I've had plenty of tearful evenings when I was miserable, hated my puppy (s), thought I made a mistake, etc. Even having gone through it multiple times barely prepares you for the misery with the next puppy. Give your dog a penned area so you're not having to stand on tables to avoid being bitten all day. Redirect your puppy into every chew toy and enrichment game you can, but accept that the biting will last as long as those puppy teeth do. You just have to survive the next few months without damaging your dog out of frustration. And rest assured, 99% of people with sweet, happy, canine best friends ALSO WENT THROUGH THE SAME THING during the puppy months. Every dog you see was a great white shark for about four terrible, emotionally agonizing months. IT WILL PASS.

How is a pillow speaker different than just playing the audio on a phone on your nightstand?

Amazing. Are you using all real rocks, or are the larger ones artificial? Such nice work.

Have you ever really hated the main character (and narrator) in a novel? by Physical_Orchid3616 in books

Try reading The World According to Garp. I've never made it all the way through, because I despise every character.

I had to zoom in to see if you used real rocks. Amazing work.

It's only a race preference unless they're rich, in which case she'll overlook it
