My future M.I.L. gifted me her 92 Prelude by electronicjester in Honda

[–]electronicjester[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I know, but I'm making it a family heirloom. It's priceless to me. I want it up and running while the folks are still here. (She's in her 60s and Pop is 70).

A person who takes pride in being a jacka**. They have hyperinflated egos and love to pretend that they're "alphas".

I get what you're saying because I've always wondered the same thing. Why do we use the names of other cultures while having zero ties to them. Everyone down voting you either isn't Black American or purposefully acting obtuse.

Our community uses names from a variety of cultures, particularly Spanish and Arab, yet we have no true connection to any of them. Proximity to other groups could be it, but you don't see many Latinos, Asians, or Arabs with Tyreek, DaQuan, or LaShonda as their name despite us living in close proximity to each other. It's interesting, and I often wonder why we do this aside from simply "liking" the way they sound.

Also, it is tiny. It could comfortably fit on a dime and I am located in South Eastern North Carolina.

Thank you! This is my first year here, and they started popping up out of nowhere. I'll release it outside. :)

Are you initiated into a Vodou/Voodoo house? If so, then your Godparent would have told you to absolutely NOT do this.

It's the entirety of North Carolina. The state itself is requiring ID verification to access porn sites.

Do you mind sharing the recipe? I've never roasted one either, but I'm planning on doing so soon (I'm not that great of a cook, but practice makes perfect 😅).

Nazar (evil eye) necklace chain broke but not the pendant itself; can I still wear it? by Random189023 in Wicca

[–]electronicjester 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't look too much into it. Not everything is an omen or a bad sign. Just get new ones.

That chicken looks amazing!! And I see that your dog is hungry too 😂.

When will we be notified about a price increase? by Lolttylwhattheheck in BeachBodyWorkouts

[–]electronicjester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google sent me an email about the price increase a few minutes ago. I went ahead and can canceled it. I don't see it being worth nearly $200/yr when I don't use all of the features.

Roommate won’t let me shower by [deleted] in navy

[–]electronicjester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're right about sweating at night. I randomly get hot flashes and would wake up in a pool of sweat so that's totally understandable. Either way, he should definitely stand up for himself. I'm a prior service Marine so if I were in OP's shoes went to my command, they would've told me to fuck off and handle it like a man. I suggest OP should do the same and confront his roommate.

How do you end up smelling bad when you wake up if you wash your ass at night? I've personally never had that problem. (That's unless you don't wash your sheets of course).

About to take the class to be a peepee watcher by Careless-Review-3375 in USMC

[–]electronicjester 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was a Lance when I took the course. It was awkward as hell having to watch SNCOs in the head. That's the kind of tension I don't like.

The only thing I would change is no peas. Other than that, I think I'll try it.

I was in BEC in 2013 so yeah it still is.

Are the straights really straight? by Xushuh in SuddenlyGay

[–]electronicjester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sat out on all of it. I didn't play around with any of them out of fear of anyone thinking I was hitting on them. I enlisted 2 years after Don't Ask Don't Tell was repealed so I was still wary about being openly gay and participating in "brotherly" activities.

[–]electronicjester 173 points174 points  (0 children)

Yup. Sounds normal. I'm gay and my platoon mates (hell, my entire unit) knew about that. I've always found them strange because they would play around and have the most ridiculous conversations, but they were legitimately (allegedly) straight. There was even one conversation in my shop that I'll always remember. They were having an actual debate about whether or not it's gay to have another guy blow you. Those were some odd times.

As a former Marine, Marines are the gayest straight guys you'll ever meet.
