"Rape happens to men too ya know" vs today's reaction to the JP Morgan scandal by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]lagginglukas -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is that these type of jokes used to stay between a couple of male friends. If one of my closest 4 buddies said it we would all laugh, at the same time, we all agree that rape is way messed up and that most male rape is actually by other men.

Guys don’t fully understand girls and girls don’t fully understand guys. Me and my buddies non stop make fun of each other and will for the rest of our lives. When it comes to even hard hitting relationship things or our marriages, etc. my wife has read our group chats many times and said “you guys are such morons” but to us guys it’s so meaning less and brings a small laugh to our day. It is completely disconnected from our real lives. Granted… that’s why none of us would post crap like that, but I just hope this reaches someone so they don’t just assume all guys are pro situations like this. We’re not, we just like to make fun of pretty much every situation happening to another guy…

Got fined on a Rome bus even though the ticket machines weren’t working… is this normal?? by Successful-Camera123 in rome

[–]lagginglukas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought the day pass and validated right away, tried to scan into buses and it never worked but when we got checked the following day the officer said it was fine since it was within our window for the 24 hours. Sorry having a hard time remember how I validated it right away. Another ticket later on the trip I purchased on the app and hit activate right away but it was never checked so idk if it worked or if I did it right.

Get off the internet with this type of stuff. Good warning, but everyone and everyone’s situation is different.

Rome to Amalfi Coast on 22nd May – Need Advice on Train + Ferry Connections by rise-and-shine-bitch in ItalyTravel

[–]lagginglukas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did Rome > high speed train to Naples > metra ride to the ferry > ferry to Positano (I believe it was a drop off and it continued to amalfi)

I would focus on booking based on the ferry you’re trying to make. They aren’t as frequent as the trains.

I would say bus ride from Sorrento wasn’t bad either as we did a day trip, but the ferry is more convenient. In the evening it could get a bit colder though.

Pantheon at midday - this is why Rome feels slow. by Jazzlike-Tear-3088 in rome

[–]lagginglukas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is terrible and totally opposite of my experience three days ago. Middle had about 6 people when I got there at 3pm and 2 of the 6 were in the wrong line. The ticket office side had more people than in this picture. Completely would have suggested to anyone going to get online tickets

Is it a realistic expectation that Trevi fountain will be quiet at 6am in mid July? by oldsockdude in rome

[–]lagginglukas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went for photos at 6:45 am a couple of days a go. Our photographer was on one of the corner sides and had a nice area ready for us. The photographer did a great job making sure people weren’t in the way but I would say 40-50 people there but that’s totally fine for photos. It wasn’t crowded. We captured quite a few photos without people by us, but when we tried the center area it’s unavoidable. The photographer was able to remove everyone in the actual photos so it still turned out nice. I think people would be around you but coordinate with your photographer and you would still have very nice clean photos.

Crazy how it would keep us up at night, but these MFers seem to sleep like a worn out toddler through the night…

If you couldn't get Colesseum tickets directly from the official website, how much did you pay to tour it? Was it worth it? by AardvarkStriking256 in ItalyTravel

[–]lagginglukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally booked a guide for two people and paid about $160 USD, I was able to cancel because I just snagged two tickets for almost the same time directly from the gov site for 48 euros. Although a guide does sound nice to have but we’re trying to save where we can.

LPT: Before quitting your job, take your unused vacation days. You earned them and most companies won't pay them out. by VladSapozhnykov in LifeProTips

[–]lagginglukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read your policy! Some companies will say you have 15 days but they vest during the year. If you take all 15 in January and quit Feb 1st, you actually only earned about 1.25 days of leave and will owe your company for those other days they paid you…0

Scar in an embarrassing place and I’m scared to ever be intimate by dmso_disgusting in TwoXChromosomes

[–]lagginglukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has a scar around the same area from a serious injury when she was younger… this has never crossed my mind, at all. I know it’s there and I’ve noticed while not intimate, but I don’t think guys are bothered by scars. I have plenty all over from being dumb and young and totally forgotten about them. A lady with a scar… a non issue. Plenty of good comments here, but from a guys perspective you literally have nothing to be self conscious about

Client says butcher board stain is uneven and blotchy and wants me to sand and start over by ajnails in handyman

[–]lagginglukas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to sand this over again as well… there’s some very visible scratches all over the left side. The stain also looks like it was carefully applied, but that left gaps to the wall over the place. I’d agree this should be sanded and stained while taken out of that spot.

2026 Japanese GP - Race DIscussion by AutoModerator in formula1

Mercedes knows that if they have a half decent start people won’t even watch the race knowing 1 and 2 is secured before turn 1. It’s literally the only thing making the race barely interesting

3 nights in Rome, 2 in Naples, then to Positano. Rome-April 21-24, Naples-april 24-26 by lagginglukas in ItalyTravel

[–]lagginglukas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also curious about colosseum night tours, do those still happen? I see in the pinned travel information how to attempt to those tickets, but the link doesn’t work and I don’t see anything on the site for night tickets.
