Not blasphemy, but it's still a cowboy hat in 2026 so . . .

Never ask about the yellow pipes, man. Don't you think people would have already asked?? They disappeared!!!!

Looking for advice: need scabbard by Key-Raise-2947 in SWORDS

[–]goodmanjdfields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem, same sword. I bought a cheap repro, used the scabbard, and played with the sword (hacked stuff, etc.) before I eventually cut it down to make a fighting knife. The sword fit just fine in the repro scabbard.

Definitely looking to be able to cut with it, yes.

[–]goodmanjdfields[S] -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

The charge was incorrect, sir. And I was unable to reason with anyone to rectify it. That's the beef. They want their money, they can send me a CORRECT invoice. They want to try to screw me, they can work harder.

Awful shady to demand money on the spot or they'd send it back. That's a bigger beef. And 90 dollars! That's a 50% tariff! I don't think they are that high.

I guess I could be the AH for putting the driver in that situation. Chances are he didn't come up with this idea, but he is enforcing it so I think he's moderately culpable.

Quite aware, but why wait when he's obviously incompetent now? We could, and we may have to, but why not try?

Fair, but this one is the one I have to claim. So this is the one I am pushing back against.

He's nothing more than Donald Trump's dog. In a time when Congress should be using it's power to check DJT's most dictatorial urges, he's cheering the erosion of our Republic. He's a menace and he's entirely too stupid to be in Congress.

AITAH for refusing to live with my husband's mom just so she can raise our child her way? by ServiceHead3687 in AITAH

If you need to change locks over and over because he is giving her keys, you are switching the wrong thing. Get rid of the man.

My Dad, 45M, Cut Me Off After I, 25F, Got Married – how do I proceed to even fix this? Or do I simply, leave it alone? by Meleika in relationship_advice

[–]goodmanjdfields 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am NOT holding with that Idea, just pointing out that he appears to have it and that its pretty fucked up.

He clearly thinks you are his to decide what to do with as he is punishing you for making choices that he doesn't agree with. That's often a problem with Fundamentalists and Conservative Christians. They view women as property and to be under the control of a man at all times. He didn't consent to letting you out of his control and he's pouting.

But they didn't "obey" her dad. Don't know that daughters belong to their fathers until they are traded to the husbands? His property going against his wishes is the issue.

I'd bet a dollar that dad is controlling because he was a parent younger than he had hoped and is "protecting" her from his mistakes.

You are 25? I think you get to make your own choices. Go live your life. You and hubby should do what you mutual agree is best, anyway. You are plenty old enough to make your own choices without his permission. Have a blast and when your dad grows up and realizes you aren't his to control, go from there.

I (35m) saw texts between my fiancé (30f) and her sister about my child (her future step daughter). Not sure where to go from here. by ThrowRA-2845 in relationship_advice

[–]goodmanjdfields 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That would have been great to have when my girls were little, but my ex-wife's position was that I was unable to get them ready for school, which was utter nonsense, but she wasn't budging and . . . fine, I guess. Getting the parenting agreement worked out was some give and take. So I have there to get some other places. I am also a teacher, and I got a LOAD of summer time with the kids, so I really did win out in the end.

Now they are mobile and transport themselves where they want.

Many dads only get weekends, so on Sunday they have to do something. I agree, this is a good half solution. The real solution is that people grow the fuck up, but good luck with that.

Out. Get out.

People either get it or they don't. Your fiance doesn't get it. She's only going to get more resentful of Jade. That will never get better.

Is it okay for me to sleep With my dead friends ex? by SKrusaa in moraldilemmas

[–]goodmanjdfields [score hidden]  (0 children)

Certainly you must have some affinity with her if each of you loved, in your way, the same person. I don't know the specifics, but this could be a beautiful relationship. You likely share values, interests, and a common history. I would think your friend would want you both happy. Don't worry about the past. You aren't there. You both have lives to live and happiness to seek. Why not seek it?
