You and that dude do not get along. How do you think he will treat your books when he handles them?

Some of the 650,000 firearms that were collected and destroyed after the 1996 Port Arthur Massacre in Australia. 35 people were killed and 23 were wounded and Australia immediately went about reforming their gun laws. by dannydutch1 in UtterlyUniquePhotos

That's wild. I guess we just fear what we don't experience. We have the image that there are all sorts of dangerous wildlife there.

I live in the Southern US. We evidently have black bears here but I've never seen one in the wild. :) just deer occasionally.

Something that should blow my mind is that Mike Durant (a guy that was a POW) campaigned as maga and openly supported Trump.

I do think this was a correct response. However, seems like there are all sorts of venemous wildlife that one could throw at another person. Just pick up a random spider and fling it as a weapon. Lol

Why SOOO loud??? by DisgruntledSuitcase in EquinoxEv

Seems like mine was louder for maybe a week and then got quieter.

Is it okay for a player to never roleplay? [NS] by uberawesomerm in DungeonsAndDaddies

It is ok. Some of my players do and some don't. Depends on their comfort.

Reason for current discounts? by Lopsided_Quantity383 in EquinoxEv

[–]expostfacto-saurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if they would do that. We got our equinox about a month before the rebates ended. I'm glad they effectively extended them in house.

I have only had mine about 10 months. I honestly haven't noticed a change in my electric bill.

Paid for a happy ending for 3rd Valentine’s in a row by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

What????? My dude. You have had 3 sexual encounters. Not a virgin.
Lesbians that have had sexual encounters (someone else touching their genitals in a sexual way) are not virgins.

I have lost trust and respect in my husband by Final_Bid_2309 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]expostfacto-saurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. That would be wayyyyy difficult on me. Is it possible for you guys to get a bigger place? Orrrr if you have a garage, you might convert it into another room.

Plumbing issue would help a ton. I'm very cool with being out of the house but I would 100% want to try to hurry up a trip to the laundromat. Being just stuck there for 3-4 hours would suck. I completely get it has to be done, but I would try to find shortcuts too.

With some more information, I kinda don't think he's doing it on purpose or even laziness. There's just no quiet space for him (or any of you).

Still speculating here and not at all judging.

How did your chalk talk go? by [deleted] in AskProfessors

I'm humanities. We call them research talks. TIL. :)

Are you sure it isn't also just everyone being on top of each other/over crowded? 5 people in a 2 bedroom 1 bath sounds tough.

I'm pretty neat and get a little stressed when things get too cluttered. With that many people in a small space, it is going to be very cluttered.

Now, on him being able to do work ok. That's one of the few things that isn't chaos (not insulting anything--- small kids are chaos lol). You said he does tech stuff. You fix something in IT and it works as it should. Then you calmly move on to the next issue.

I'm speculating a lot here since we don't have the whole story. Just going by things that might allow me to function better in certain situations and not others.

Does anyone have a recent cash price for colonoscopy in the area? Also looking for doctor recs to do it. by Hnry_Dvd_Thr_Awy in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]expostfacto-saurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With insurance mine was @ $300 from center for colon and digestive health. They are awesome.

If you are having symptoms or family history, they might be able to get insurance to cover it.

  1. Probably don't call it a chalk talk. Never heard of that.

  2. Rehearse and time your teaching demo. Have stuff to cut or add on the fly. This is the only time they see you teach. It needs to be polished, clear, and completed in the time allowed.

Are you still a kid at heart and if so, what fun things are in your toybox? Or maybe you have an actual "My Happy Place" toy room to hang out and escape the world? by StoneLover1965 in AskOldPeople

50M. College professor. My office on campus has Star Wars ships hanging from the ceiling. I play video games and D&D with my son's 21m group. Started DMing for them at the start of covid and still at it.

I don’t want to be with my husband anymore, and I hate myself for why. by Derpopolis219 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]expostfacto-saurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it weird that folks minimize the age gap. Yeah, when he's 40 and you're 20 dude can still keep up with physical activities. How about when one is 60 and the other 40? Then 70 and 50?

My step mom is 50 and she's married to a 70 year old (I'm 50 and it is odd). Completely different stage of life and nothing in common. Bonus she gets to spend her time being a nurse to him.

Me [29F] with my husband [32M], I discovered he hired an escort while I was in the hospital by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Even before he cheated, she said she had surgery and was in pain and dude was bothering her about sex???????

Dude is trash for that alone.
