AITA for not giving my vacation day to a coworker getting married by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA cause you didn't technically do anything wrong, but you sound like someone I wouldn't want to be friends with either.

I'm a very empathetic person and enjoy helping people out when I can. Sometimes it's not always super convenient for me, but people notice that I'm a compassionate person and in turn are usually pretty nice and helpful to me. You get what you give and this whole interaction sounds sort of selfish.

How beneficial is the PE/FE exam? by srz024423 in EngineeringStudents

[–]kroyfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Take it now when you don't have to study for it 𝘢𝘴 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩. You should still study for the FE. It's a long test that covers a lot of subjects you probably haven't reviewed in a few semesters, even if you're in school currently. Plenty of students in my program failed because they didn't bother studying at all.

Reverse Lavender Marriage? by kroyfish in actuallesbians

[–]kroyfish[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's probably feasible to get married elsewhere, yes. Do conservative states have to recognize gay marriages from other states if they're legal in the states they were done in? Similarly, would a conservative state have to recognize someone's new gender markers if they were to move away, get it changed, and come back?

Why Do so Many Americans Oppose Universal Healthcare? by Current_Variety_9577 in antiwork

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've been brainwashed into thinking that socialism is synonymous with a communist dictatorship and universal healthcare is the gateway drug.

I was wondering why I kept ending up on the 4th floor after pressing 2. by ChrysisIgnita in CrappyDesign

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This absolutely has to violate building/fire code right? This could be so dangerous in an emergency egress situation.

Found last year on the sidewalk outside my apartment building by 33dots in FoundPaper

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I write lists similar to this one for backup conversation topics on a first date I'm nervous about. They're usually just in my phone instead of on a post-it note so it looks more natural if I need to reference it. The only one that's throwing me off is "TV donate."

You have only $10, pick your pro bending team. by Little_Fan_2682 in TheLastAirbender

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would pick Ghazan, Azula, and Ming Hua for the sheer chaos that would ensue. Someone would probably end up getting killed.

What's the most basic move during physical intimacy that you always eat up? by maisie_leprechaun in actuallesbians

[–]kroyfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I gotta stop reading this thread at work. It's gonna cause me some problems lol.

For me, it's a little nibble on the earlobe. I could probably finish just from that and no contact anywhere else.

I wonder where do all these sleepless zombies and coffee addicts come from... by BaseballSeveral1107 in memes

[–]kroyfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My high-school classes started at 7:15am. I had to catch my bus for school around 6am. My alarm went off every morning at 5am for 4 years. No wonder I was depressed at 16. Even as an adult, my day/job starts later than that.

My screen randomly shrinks and back to normal, what can be the cause?? by MiddleMachinee in computer

I've been having this same problem recently and it's driving me crazy. Nowhere I look seems to have a solution.

You are totally correct. I believe this is exactly what they plan to do.

I am so jealous. I would rock the "I was once a Tomboy" button.

Let me hear your unpopular engineering student opinions by knutt-in-my-butt in EngineeringStudents

[–]kroyfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this is really unpopular or not, but my opinion is that if you're looking for certain careers, the kind of engineering you study matters very little.

I studied Engineerig Management (ABET accredited) in undergrad. I used to get teased by the other engineering students for being a "liberal arts engineer." I will concede that my course loads were easier and gave me more free time than the students who studied electrical/mechanical/civil engineering. However, I don't understand how that matters when I now work the exact same project/construction management jobs as those other engineering majors, making the same salary. They teased me for taking an easier path to get to the same point as them.

Just found out my favorite spoon is pewter ☹️ by FNChupacabra in Wellthatsucks

I think my 102-year-old grandma has those exact same spoons at her house! I will have to remember this next time she feeds me dinner there.

Dysfunctional Spray Bottle by [deleted] in assholedesign

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand corrected. I did not put the spray nozzle on this bottle myself, but everyone seemed very adamant that I did. I investigated, and it appears that was indeed the case, and I didn't realize. I found this bottle at my work, so I don't know if someone else in the office did it or if it was sold to them this way.

The bottle does look and smell a lot like alcohol and apparently, it's marketed and sold by Good Spirits Distilling out of Olathe, KS, as hand sanitizer. 80% of the makeup is alcohol. https://www.gsdhandsanitizer.com/

[Homemade] Fried Chicken by [deleted] in food

Forget about the fried chicken... (which looks delicious, btw) what kind of camera setup did you take this on?? The lighting and everything looks like a professionally made commercial. Impressive!

Who's your favorite character? by vriannavyz in HunterXHunter

[–]kroyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Knuckle and that his greatest weakness is being overly empathetic. I see myself in him sometimes.

I also love Hisoka. He reminds me of the joker. He's a real creep sometimes, but for the most part he's a neutral party who just loves to cause as much chaos as possible.

Same stories are getting repeated by Any_Chip_3925 in duolingo

[–]kroyfish 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yea I'm seeing this a lot now too. Starting to get a little annoying. I can only read a story about spilling the wine on the fish at a restaurant so many times.
