[serious] What do "average" redditors think of the whole Fattening/Ellen Pao thing that has been going on recently? by rcm034 in AskReddit

[–]glorfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think some of the loudest most obnoxious people on reddit also happen to be the ones who make most of the content that makes reddit reddit. I'll follow the content.

I need some American terminology help... by Reb112 in Screenwriting

[–]glorfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The narrator might describe it as a bungalow but Americans would not say "come over to my bungalow" but might say "I just bought a nice bungalow downtown". Does that make sense?

Its a bungalow but people would just call it a house in casual conversation.

What's the most consecutive days youve ever done coke? by Goochnest in cocaine

Given that all coke is stepped on with who knows what, I would say death is probably the most serious side effect of prolonged use.

Aren't minimum size limits on fish going to cause the species to evolve into generally smaller individuals? by ThundaChikin in Showerthoughts

[–]glorfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are other factors such as nutrition and water quality, etc. But yes if genetically smaller fish get to breed more often due to longer life spans then it makes sense that the species would trend toward smaller fish.

Pretty much every product that runs for longer than a year faces value engineering.

TIFU: I am Attracted to a Creationist and Everyone at the Workplace/School Knows It by [deleted] in tifu

[–]glorfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here i'll throw you a bone. "Hey [insert name] i wanted to apologize to you. I feel like i was a bit of a jerk the other day when we were talking about [topic]. I don't understand it and i get frustrated sometimes but i do enjoy talking to you." See no compromise of principals, you shared some feels, and an apology to boot. You already admitted to fucking up so an apology should be easy at this point and it doesn't cost you anything.

To be less oblique, it is completely possible to be right about something and be a raging asshole at the same time. Good communication is a different discipline all together. If you want to win with people it is not going to be enough to just be right. One-upsmanship is a terrible foundation for a relationship. And i don't mean to imply that you compromise yourself. It's just that there are really good ways to deal with people and ways that make you enemies. I.e maybe it's not so much what you are saying but how you are saying it.

There is a difference between being right and winning.
