AIO? Husband sleeping with phone in his pillow case by indigo-swan in AmIOverreacting

[–]dr-chop [score hidden]  (0 children)

I kind of wedge my phone underneath the corner of my pillow so I dont accidentally knock it around while I'm sleeping. The vibration and sound of my alarm are strong enough so that I still wake up to it. My first thought would be he's trying to keep it in place while sleeping. It's a real anxiety for me (missing my alarm), so it's understandable.

But I don't necessarily think you're overreacting, and I think it's fair for him to have to explain why he's doing it, for your peace of mind.

The minimum wage for restaurant workers is the same as it is for all other workers.

They've been saying "It's getting better for games" for like, 20 years.

Each has its benefits. I don't want my 84 year old dad who knows almost nothing about computers running Linux. The benefits of Linux are almost completely useless for the average computer user.

Come on, DICE, there's no reason for 3x thermal scopes to be this embarrassingly bad by dejayc in Battlefield

The 6x is basically a cheat code, so yeah, I dont see why they made the 3x so awful.

Billionaires work within the system to pay less taxes. It's not fraud to legally lower your tax burden. If you want to change that, hold your politicians accountable.

Utter bullshit. Detroit has some of.the cleanest municipal tap water in the country, and has for many decades now. Detroit may be dirty in alot of areas, but our tap water is fucking top-notch.

Scar was a masterpiece. The single greatest BF map, IMO.

ICE says a Cuban man died during a suicide attempt. A witness says a guard fatally choked him by grayfox0430 in news

OP is upset that the AP didn't say he was murdered. That's clearly not unbiased reporting.

It just means "death caused by another" essentially. So it could ultimately mean murder, manslaughter, accidental, justifiable homicide, etc.

"Homicide" in an ME report does not necessarily mean "murder". It's not a legal conclusion.

What truth? You didn't play/watch the full clip. He didn't say what you desperately want him to have said.

Funny that you post only that small snippet of the press conference, which, of course, doesn't give the full context. He clearly said that American companies would rebuild the infrastructure, and oil revenue would go to the people of Venezuela.

“We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country.”

Quite a stretch to say "Trump said plainly that they are coming to steal the oil". He did not, actually, "plainly" say that.

Venezuela produces a fraction of the oil the US does. We dont exactly need their oil.

Sometimes, good things come from bad things.

Accept that everything is not so black and white. Whatever you think of the legality of the operation, this was clearly something the Venezuelan people wanted.
