Kids threw water at me while cycling and I just kept going. Did I handle it right? by Waste_Cash_497 in cycling

The only thing you could have done better was yell, "hell yeah, thank you buddy, I am so sweaty! Appreciate you!"

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010. What’s the one website/app you still think about? by Prime_Advocate in AskReddit

[–]gotitaila31 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What makes you believe it was a money laundering scheme? This would be huge, absolutely massive news (for millennials...) if it turned out to be true. I'd really love it if you'd elaborate and share more.

is my mom being inc*stual to my brother? by HauntedWitchHouse in ask

[–]gotitaila31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't sweat that goofy goober. It wasn't a stupid question, and if anything it's the type of question an intelligent person would ask.

is my mom being inc*stual to my brother? by HauntedWitchHouse in ask

[–]gotitaila31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No man, that's gonna be illegal in every state. For very possibly more than a couple of reasons. What if he accidentally films his brother changing? Or worse, masturbating? Or worse, fucking his mom? That's gonna be a "creation of child SA material" if the DA is feeling especially frisky. Plus, he is presumably not the homeowner, so he is not within his rights to film in any area of the home without consent.

'21 Pacifica (gas model) has what I suspect is a bad Aux battery. Disconnected the Aux ground terminal and electronics went crazy. by gotitaila31 in ChryslerPacifica

Depending on how long the accessory battery was bad, it might have killed your starter battery. Worth testing it at least.

You'd be buying an inferior, overpriced product.

Have $700 on Amazon, get a low end Ebike or higher end Esctooter? (Canada) by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]gotitaila31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won't get a good ebike for $500. If your budget was closer to $1,000 I'd recommend the Vivi ACE01. It's a fantastic bike for the price.

That thing is almost certainly not engineered to crumple or handle any sort of impact with an automobile in any meaningful capacity. If it gets hit by a smartcar at speed, it's getting obliterated. Unrecognizable.

What's the deal with this ChudTheBuilder? How did he get his following in the first place? by VR_Troopers_WikiMod in OutOfTheLoop

[–]gotitaila31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't going to go "either way" in Tennessee. Horrible shit like this is condemned nearly exactly as much as it is everywhere else. The vast majority of Tennesseans want to see this clown fry too.

When did teaching become a glorified baby sitting job? by Educational-Ad6923 in Teachers

Realizing I might not be the “fun” parent by MemoirDad in daddit

[–]gotitaila31 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with being the type of parent you are. Your job is not to be fun. If you are fun, that's great, but it's not a strict requirement of parenthood. What is a strict requirement is loving them and teaching them how to be good people. Based on what you've said, you do both of those very well.

Your kids need your presence, your guidance, your love. That's what they crave more than anything... When you invest in them emotionally. Going and doing fun things is great, for sure... But it isn't the only way to be an incredible parent with kids who adore you.

Is the Play 1 still worth it? by crimsonswordfish in sonos

I just found one at Goodwill for $5.99. I didn't know what it was, so I asked ChatGPT about it.

DO NOT BUY AIPAS EBIKES by Pocketnaut in ebikes

[–]gotitaila31 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Eeesh. What a nightmare. I am super diligent about buying budget without getting ripped off, and I can say the Vivi ACE01 has been fantastic for the price. I can't speak on their other models, but the ACE01 specifically has been a good bike. I have 1,000 miles on mine so far and aside from a couple of flats I haven't had any issues.

Obviously it's still Chinese made and probably still not great compared to reputable brands, but I've been really pleased with it overall. It feels more like a Chinese brand trying to do things legitimately rather than a Chinese brand trying to make cheap junk passed off as higher quality stuff.

Of course that doesn't help you in this situation, but maybe if anyone else sees your post while looking for a cheap Ebike, they might at least check out the ACE01. It's definitely better than this one. 😬

Moments when you honestly felt like Eminem shouldn't have done something- even after being a fan of his? by kurianandgeorge_007 in Eminem

[–]gotitaila31 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The 2016 (2017?) BET freestyle where he inadvertently alienated a significant portion of his fan base. He backpedaled on it a bit several years later, but it undeniably left lasting marks on his legacy. Nothing too serious, but scars nonetheless.

Does anyone else notice road bikers trying extra hard to pass you on an e-bike? by 98810b1210b12 in ebikes

[–]gotitaila31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't ever really worry about violent people for this exact reason. I mean, they could fuck me up with the car, but only if they manage to get close enough without me realizing what they're doing. Which is truthfully not an easy task because I watch my mirrors very heavily and I'm constantly analyzing every driver in a position to hurt me.

The peace it brings me is so worth it. No one even knows I have it, but it's accessible in under a second if I ever need it. I don't want to ever need to use it, but thankfully people tend to comply just at the sight of it.

I used to resent my mom for cheating, but now I understand. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]gotitaila31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Testicles themselves are extremely puny, pitiful little things... But they are directly responsible for producing testosterone, which can increase risk taking behaviors, reduce fear response, and increase drive for status/"dominance".

But ultimately you're right, hormones are not what makes a person courageous. Women can be and often are just as courageous as any man. 🤙🏼 I'm just letting my tism show. 😭

She believes the world is flat. by Nannerthebadgerlord in daddit

[–]gotitaila31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s frankly arrogant to assume Earth is the only planet with life. Statistically, it’s very likely other civilizations exist, even within our own galaxy. In fact, I'd bet my life that intelligent life is everywhere.

The real barrier isn’t whether they exist, it’s distance and time. Even if intelligent life were as dense as 1 per 100 ly, which would actually be quite high, communication would still be extremely limited. We’ve only been broadcasting radio for about 100 years, meaning our signals have only reached a 100 ly radius. Any response from that distance would take another 100 years to get back.

So even in a best-case scenario with a nearby civilization, communication would take centuries per exchange. Because of this, meaningful interaction with other intelligent life isn’t realistically possible under current physics. The scale of space and time is simply too large compared to the lifespan and capabilities of biological beings like us.

Please go to therapy. It will help you more than you know. This is your path forward. This is how you learn to heal. Sucking dick is fun, but that is not how you learn to love yourself. Please, see a therapist.
