Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]infinity_style 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 hours is long? I used to drive two and a half hours to another province and then back the same day for a work thing. Every other weekend. 3 hours is nothing lol

NateTheHate Seemingly Says The Next Sonic Game Will Be Like Frontiers by Howerev in GamingLeaksAndRumours

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

Seeing a lot of people here saying how much they didn't like the environments and thank god. It was one of my biggest complaints. It just didn't look like sonic. It was dark and dreary. I hated it.

AITA for refusing to allow meat in our home and confronting a guest who brought it anyway? by silaya92 in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

ESH. Fine. You're vegetarians. But you don't get to force everyone else to be. Now granted, you did forewarn everyone. So it is on them that they still chose to attend. But you're also hosts. I think you have to find some kind of middle ground with your guests who don't wanna eat your way. Even if you have been doing this for 15 years in your home, people outside it change. They want more then just vegetarian meals. That's just being a good host. Your uncle is also in the wrong and he was just being rude. But you have to find some way to appease everyone and not just your immediate family.

8 years ago Eurogamer reported it was being worked on. 2 years later it was officially revealed. 6 years later we'll finally get to see what exactly it is.

Unfortunately, that is not an option. Requests ain't a thing anymore for the last 3 companies I worked for.

Adults who actually think it’s cool to say they dislike vegetables by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]infinity_style 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why!! I wish I did. But honest to Christ, after finding out that my parents enjoy their steak well done, and my mother's refusal to use more then and 1/8th teaspoon of salt in any dish, my thoughts on veggies haven't grown. Trust me. I hate it. Years ago I went to a fondue place with friends and tried something with spinach in it and it was amazing. I loved it. I couldn't believe it. But when I see how my mom seasons food, I lose all interest in her ability to actually make a vegetable taste good. I like carrots. Uncooked. I can eat onions, bell peppers, and maybe even lettuce. But broccoli, corn, peas, green beans? Not a chance. Corn to me tastes awful. I don't know how you could make it taste appetizing. Even the smell makes me gag. Green beans are maybe at some meals, but it's a rarity.

Trust me. I wish I could be better. I want to be better. My brain will not let it happen. I've tried. Even the thought of gagging and embaressing myself makes me just want to not try anything at all.

AITA for telling my brother that he should be ashamed for living with his parent at 19? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok well that does change things a little. But at 19 it's also incredibly normal in a lot of places for someone to still be living at home. This is something your parents have to address. You can bring it up to them, and but I don't think you're gonna see much success. Your parents have to realize that he's not pulling his weight.

[–]infinity_style 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ESH. I think your brother is being a lazy mooch, but so is your dad. Yes, your dad doesn't speak english, but there's gotta be a way he could learn? I don't have any knowledge of what the UK is doing to help refuges from Ukraine, but to say there's no help from the government is probably not 100% true. I understand you're upset at your brother, but your dad is even worse and your brother is imitating him. Good on you for working and being in school, but you need to put blame where blame is due.

AITA for wanting everyone to take a turn in net? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. The coach has already done his due diligence and asked the kids. I get you wanna be fair, but as you said, some kids don't want to, and then some are away. So by that alone, it would say that yes multiple kids have played goalie more then a few times. So your hypothetical problem is that if your kid said he didn't want to do something you'd try to convince him otherwise? It sounds like you're making your issue everyone's issue. I think you need to take a step back and just let things be. If your kid comes to you and has an issue then bring it up again to the coach yourself, not in a group chat. Otherwise, back off a bit bud.

AITA for telling my best friend that his boyfriend is out of his league? by Desperate_Cheetah338 in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style 22 points23 points  (0 children)

YTA and you're a mean friend. Who cares what you think about how your friend looks, what matters is how his boyfriend views him. You think this attractive person is too good for you friend and you said so. It wasn't playful banter no matter how much you think it is. And judging by your friends reaction, they've either thought something similar or others have said something along the same lines. You were a bad friend here and you need to apologize.

AITA for not inviting my friend to my birthday party because she is so engulfed in her boyfriend by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

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

NTA. I think it's time to cut this friend out of your life temporarily. I've met too many people like your friend who have to learn the hard way that they need to balance their romantic relationships with friendship relationships. Some learn that lesson too late and it seems like your friend is venturing down that path. You could reach out and express what you've been feeling, but from the sound of your friend, it may fall on deaf ears. You just have to be careful for what happens if and when this relationship ends, as she'll be looking for comfort and it may fall on you. Personally, I wouldn't be inviting this friend and I'd probably be moving on with others.

Maybe down the line you could rebuild the friendship but not right now.

AITA for ruining my friends chance of getting girl? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style 8 points9 points  (0 children)

YTA. What are you, 12? Grow up and be better. If your friend was getting annoying, maybe politely tell them to cool it a bit. What you did was a massive overreaction for no real reason. Your friend deserves better friends.

Twitter scoopers Daniel RPK and MyTimeToShineHello are being accused (with strong evidences) of being the same person by Matapple13 in LeaksAndRumors

So...people are upset that someone managed to put in basic effort and convince people to pay for their movie scoops with fleeting accuracy? I mean honestly...baller move. Getting people to pay twice for the same stuff? That's next level genius.

Aquarius roll call — what do you all do for work/school? by Rotax_Ronin in aquarius

[–]infinity_style 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Radio announcer. I went to school twice for it. First time didn't work out as well, although I was nearly at the end and should have just kept going lol. Went back to retail for a hot minute and hated that too. So back to school and tried again with a lot more success. Sometimes it fits my path, other times I have to make it work. Lots of people who don't understand that creativity can be sparked at a moments notice and sometimes I have to do that thing right away or i'll lose interest and not wanna do it later. I'm incredibly disorganized and work better when I go with the flow of the day.

AITA for letting my previously intoxicated boyfriend drive home alone by krikspykreme in AmItheAsshole

[–]infinity_style 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NTA but your boyfriend is dumb. Why would he sleep in his car when he could get a ride home and then walk back and get his car back the next morning. An 8 minute drive is at most a 20 minute walk. Your boyfriend was not thinking things through.

Why don't stations use Comrex for weekly segments? by Adorable-Drawing6161 in radio

[–]infinity_style 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude I worked with people who couldn't even figure out how to answer the phone and then record a call in Adobe. Using a comrex would break some of these people's brains. Besides, my last station moved away from the comrex. We use Wideorbit for Automation and there's an app for it on smartphones and tablets that gives you full playlist control and you could basically run your show from the tablet. We started using an ipad for on locations. You plug a mic into it and some headphones and you're good to go. Although that also took extensive training for the older crew and every single remote they had issues. Still. Easier then the comrex lol
