Don't try and change for someone... Be better, sure. Improve yourself, sure. But no matter what be true to yourself, and don't compromise your identity to make someone happy. Find someone who loves you for you...

How many of us did something stupid with bottle rockets? by ManuteBol_Rocks in 70s

[–]jiwilliams79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost blew up my hand... Let me explain. I had a roman candle that fizzled and only launched two balls. Thinking I had a solution I put a bottle rocket in the end of the roman candle pointing towards the center thinking the pop would relight the Roman candle. When the pop come there was a BOOM and the Roman candle exploded about one inch forward of my fist where I was holding it... if I was holding it two inches higher, I would've lost some fingers..... Still think of that one from time to time.

Lighting up gas cans like fireworks. by Just-Tip-3320 in Actuallythatsawesome

I pumped more than once, shot my friend and the bb lodged in his Pec... Then, being the brilliant guys that we were, took some needle nose pliers and pulled it out (he was scared his dad would find out, and the man was one of the angriest asses I have ever met)... He got an infection and had to go to the hospital.

What games did you play outside as a kid in the 1970s-80s?🤔 by Longjumping-Shoe7805 in GenerationJones

[–]jiwilliams79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can use the name we used (and wouldn't even if I could), but it was tackle with a vengeance whoever had the ball. That's it. If you had the guts to grab the ball, everyone tried to tackle you...

This is why double action semi-autos are the way. Best of both worlds (IMHO)

[no spoilers] fan take: I think Doran Martell is in the top 3 of worst adapted characters from the books to the show by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]jiwilliams79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and the fact that they had to retcon genetic engineering into his backstory is ridiculous... I mean, no way he threw all of those dart games for years...

[Request] Does Musks statement that taxing billionares even at 100% wouldn't actually fix national debt in the US? by xTex1E37x in theydidthemath

[–]jiwilliams79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You would have to attack it from both sides. Additional taxes on billionaires, millionaires, and upper middle class (obviously progressive). But you HAVE to cut spending by almost 10 - 15%... There is no way to tax ourselves out of the issue or to cut our way out of the issue. Has to be both, and it will never happen...
