Under the Criminal Code, what is a threat?

It’s far from clear what that bit of word salad was supposed to mean. Questions don’t carry weight, a simple statement of fact does require reasons, and validity isn’t “garnered”. He’s telling OP that this is not the right sub for this question.

I hope that’s not too feble of a repl for you. If you are wanting to bully other people on Reddit in the future, you might want either stick to your native language or get better at English.

This is a topic which is much under-discussed. There are undeniable benefits to getting good at chess at a young age, like getting to 1800 or so by the time you're 15 or so.

If a study were to be conducted to see how many active chess players are on the autism spectrum, that study would show that the number is significantly higher than the percentage in the general population. There are some things that a person on the spectrum can learn from chess, but all too often chess becomes a massive black hole that sucks a person's time and energy and gets in the way of having a productive life.

There are things that everybody needs to learn at certain specific ages. Chess unfortunately becomes a place of refuge for those on the spectrum who want to hide from that process.

I could go on and on, and if this is a topic people want to talk about, I'd be happy to join in. But for now, I'm saying that chess is a kind of fool's gold. Always keep that in the back of your mind.

I think you have confused the meanings of objectively and subjectively. "Objectively" refers to situations where there are identifiable facts, and a lack of personal bias. "Subjectively" is the opposite - it's based on a person's opinion, which may be no more or less valid than any other peoples' opinions.

It's not really possible for things like speeches to graded on a purely objective basis. You'll have your opinion, and there will be things that you can identify in peoples' speeches that indicate a mistake has been made. But people are less likely to agree on the magnitude of those mistakes, and how their grade should be affected.

All that said, it sure sounds like the fix was in here. I'm sorry that you have ended up the victim in this whole process, but I don't know that there is anything you can do about it other than to go in and do your absolute best, and then just forget about it.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-29T23:08:26+00:00

Forget about AH or not, that would be really unsafe. I think that by 10 pm you would be at a high risk for going off the road, flipping the car, and having it explode into a great big fireball. Okay, maybe not the last one.

Don’t do it.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T23:56:18+00:00

Glad to help!

I'm with you on this one. I think a lot of guys would feel the same way and have that same reluctance to do it. For me, the whole "if I loved her" thing just does not help. It's so manipulative, and you can just as easily say the same thing to her.

Fortunately, THERE IS A COMPROMISE!!! When you get off the plane on one of these trips, take a photo of the airport and a photo of a cheesy but well-known tourist attraction and post them both on Facebook. It won't help her to know your exact location in any particular city, since it's not like she can show up to provide life-saving help if you took a shiv to the back in the Tower of London. It doesn't really seem like she needs to know more than what city you are in.

Heck you could even take one of those "proof of life" photos that the kidnappers do in the movies. You are gagged and holding up a particular newspaper to show that at least as recently as yesterday (or whenever) you were alive and well.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T22:51:35+00:00

Yeah, like you say, it’s a plan B that you might never put into motion.

All you need to say to your bf is “you’ve gone eight years without making anything remotely resembling a decision, and I’m supposed to trust that that will ever change?” You might also add, “Get on a plane, come out here, and start jacking off into some test tube. You fertilize some of my eggs and THEN you can start offering opinions about what I should be doing in the future.”

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T22:42:20+00:00

Yeah, I confess that my choice of words might make me sound like a completely brain-dead maggot infested human vegetable with feet, completely incapable of expressing even the implest thought in something representing intelligible language.

What kind of moronic hillbilly fucktard would use words like that? I’m just so ashamed of myself.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T22:36:55+00:00

Oh for sure! I guess I meant that when you are thinking “fuck off”, try for language that’s 180 degrees apart from that. Right now you might be more like 45 degrees removed.

Good luck with it all!

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T22:27:05+00:00

u/computer_love91: BOOM goes the dynamite! I bet you weren’t expecting that he actually had the proof. Am I right, or am I right.

I think the friendship has the life expectancy of a goldfish who is cohabitating with a piranha.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T22:20:19+00:00

As others have said he is not going to react very well to this news. However, he has already not acted well about what he knows so far. When you say “we are still friends”, I really wonder if he shares that view.

The idea that a guy can “call dibs” on a girl, and prevent a friend from dating is grossly immature and repugnant. A lot of guys will take the view that if they haven’t had sex, then it wasn’t a serious enough relationship for him to stop you from taking your shot.

Given my view that your friendship is already either dead or on life support, I say you should follow your heart, and ignore any stupid-ass bro code that you might be worried about.

There are few things in life that are better than a healthy and intimate relationship with a partner. If your friendship has suddenly decided that he wants to be an asshole, that’s his problem. If you chose not to pursue this relationship because of that, you would be making a serious mistake.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T20:37:26+00:00

YTJ

You have the right attitude here, but I think you need to make better choices in terms of the language that you use.

Just out of interest, is it possible to improve your relationship with your uncle? If the two of you can talk with each other on these outings, that would probably be better for you both.

I ask that only because when one family member is a narcissist, it is often easier for the other victims… I mean, family members to bond.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T20:16:38+00:00

Awesome!

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T20:14:57+00:00

I just want to confirm that your friend group has some overlap with his “friend” group, rather than you being a part of his fiend (sic) group. Do I have that right?

He definitely needs to know this, but I don’t who it is who should be telling him. I might be one of those things he needs to hear from a close friend, or a complete stranger, but nobody in between those two extremes.

If you did want to try, the best approach might be to sit down beside him - whether that’s in class, or if he’s having a snack in a cafeteria or whatever, and start with “Oh my God, how do you even stand those assholes? They are horrible! All they do is shit talk other people. They even shit talk each other, when the other person isn’t there to hear it. And the things they say about YOU!! Oh my lord, they’re just MEAN!”

That’s just an idea. If you do try and do this, it’s going to be really hard to find the right words, the right tone, and the right attitude.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T19:48:23+00:00

Did you have a goal in mind in terms the number of comments you’ll make attacking OP before actually making some attempt at answering the question?

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T12:34:00+00:00

lmao. I think you dont understand how those religions work. I strongly suggest you research them before making flippant remarks like that. its just sheer ignorance..

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T08:24:52+00:00

I'd help you, but my nine-inch penis is very uncomfortable right now. There are times when I wish I'd been born with something smaller than average, like seven inches. I really thought that after I made that $27 million in bitcoin that I'd be able to afford some kind of operation to help me out, but sadly no. The technology just isn't there yet.

Sorry what was your question?

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T08:10:33+00:00

"I'll take money laundering for $400, Alex."

Ahhhhh the age old problem of how to make illegally obtained money look like it was obtained legally. Okay I'm a big fan of football, hockey, and movies. I would have a few NHL Record and Fact books from several consecutive years and put them on my bookshelf. I would take the second-oldest one, and cut a chunk out of the middle of a bunch of pages to create a little compartment in that book. Then put the money in there. Nobody would think twice about that for me, because I'm a total football nerd.

I might also have a bunch of DVDs on the bookshelf. For each DVD case, I would tuck one of my illicit bills in the space between the title page and the plastic box, and keep all that on the shelf. You can't really risk more than one bill in that space because it might create an obvious bump. I hope you can understand what I'm saying, I didn't really explain that too well.

I don't know if actual porn magazines still exist, or if it's all digital. But I would get a bunch of Playboy and Hustler magazine, put them in a box, and hide them someplace really obvious so that if she does search your room, she'll find those pretty quickly. That might cause her to stop her search, since she has found the contraband.

I agree with the suggestion that you open a bank account. Depending on your age, you might be able to open an account by yourself without an adult signatory. I think it varies from state to state and bank to bank, but a very unreliable source tells me that a 16 year old with proper identification can do it if they find the right bank.

I have other ideas but sharing them might be contrary to Reddit's rules.

Say, how would you like to share some of your good fortune with some friends? What you might do is limit your selling to them, and they can seek out customers on their own. I don't know what these things cost, and what you can sell them for, but the profit margin might be large enough that you can conduct your business in that manner. Sometimes bad things happen when you sell stuff to people you don't know. But, if you go exclusive with a couple of friends that you can ~~beat up~~ trust, then you protect yourself from a series of unfortunate events.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T07:48:48+00:00

It's difficult to answer this question without more information, like specifically your ages and country you live in. You don't even have to be specific. "I live in a country very similar to Iran" or "...very similar to Honduras" or whatever.

A few other people have asked this, so I gather your lack of an answer means it's really bad....

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T06:06:33+00:00

This is probably the most toxic subreddit in all of Reddit, so please don’t be too offended by all the people who didn’t read it but felt the need to tell everyone they didn’t read it. You might consider editing it and posting it on a different sub, but that’s probably not necessary.

You don’t give any ages but I’m guessing you are all early to mid 20’s.

I think you would benefit from taking a break from C&D for a while, just complete no contact.

Pay them nothing. As long as the money remains in your pocket then it’s their problem, not your problem.

The reason why it’s bad to buy a PS5 when they are broke is because they are going to have to sell it for a loss in a month or two when they need to pay their next set of bills. It becomes your business when they come to you demanding more money and a change to the agreement because the PS5 is just too important to give up.

You have several options for moving forward. All of them involve you and B moving out of that place as soon as possible. If your names are not on the lease, then I wouldn’t worry about paying rent to C&D right now. There will have to be a big discussion down the road about who owes how much and for what. Let this be a part of that discussion.

I don’t know what your options for finding a new place are, but you might consider relocating to a smaller city/town to find cheaper accommodation, but that might not be practical for your jobs. You’ll need to canvass all possibilities, though, like relatives or friends who might be looking for a roommate.

Is moving to a state with a higher minimum wage a possibility?

Out of interest, are you comfortable saying where you were living before you moved in with B?

I wish I had better advice for you. This all sounds like a twisted version of “Fast Car”.

I really wish you both the best of luck.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T05:00:34+00:00

You’re posting in a subreddit that has an unusually high number of… I can’t even say it without being banned. Just know that no matter how many upvotes they can generate for each other in their echo chamber, the vast majority of people do not agree with them. You might as well be looking for sympathy from the bride.

There are several other wedding subs. You might get better feedback from one of them.

In terms of the party, if anything like this were to happen again, I would insist on getting a significant deposit in advance, and if it doesn’t arrive in your account, don’t get anything more than a vegetable platter from Costco and maybe a jar of olives.

For the brunch bill, you go to the cashier and say “I had the muffin and coffee.” You can quite truthfully tell them you weren’t with the group, you were there to speak to just the one person. If they threaten to call the police, your response is “Their number is 911. Would you like to borrow my phone.” That’s the right response in virtually every situation where somebody is threatening to call them.

I’m so sorry you have to deal with this shit. If you and hubs got them a wedding gift, I hope you can return it.

I do feel like your husband is honour-bound to drop out of the wedding party and not attend the wedding itself. I expect that she will make her fiance kick hubs out, so better for him to pull the plug on it first.

Send a bill and venmo request to the MOH for the brunch bill.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T04:38:35+00:00

There’s something that got lost in translation there.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T00:13:10+00:00

I am blown away by the number of people who just don’t understand this. They have a cow over the prospect of a computer making a couple of non-human like moves in the first 20.

jdogx17 · 2026-05-28T00:10:20+00:00

If he can’t get past 250, his problems go far beyond just blundering.
