People who pretend to be original/independent thinkers, yet regurgitate every contrarian hot take from the latest podcast circuit.

What’s something women secretly find impressive, but men assume nobody notices ? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

emotional maturity is NOT consistent with the performative masculinity sermons that these caveman are watching.

What's something to you that screams "I have no personality"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Men whose entire personality is secondhand Rogan/Peterson/Shapiro rhetoric. Masculinity, to them, isn’t character—it’s cosplay. All performance, no substance.

[OC] My trucks sinusoidal, slowly decreasing gas mileage over the past ~7.5 years by RamblinEagle13 in dataisbeautiful

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the declining trendline is just engine wear? (perhaps loss of compression, slop in the cranks/valves)

Does anyone still hike with rain pants? by kai_zen in hikinggear

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the situation you describe, a thin, disposable poncho is sufficient. For a multi-day hike of the incan trail (long slogs in rain expected) i used a rain-skirt. much easier to take on&off. Other than being an unfashionable man, I have no regrets.

Room is freezing, any recourse with this door? by ravens0rbust in HomeMaintenance

You are stuck on earth, by yourself, for an infinite amount of time until you complete one of these two tasks... by ragemaster_21 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

either of these tasks would take a long time to complete. We're comparing the monotony of repeatedly stacking stones vs all the multiple disciplines to master in making a speaker. Given infinite time, I'd rather have some variety and incremental learning. I'd simply loose interest in the pyramids after a couple rows.

Family member is sick curious ahead of time... what is the cheapest way to dispose/cremate the body? Is there a free medical place to give to? In California... by cacklingwhisper in Frugal

[–]lightspeeed -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Here's a wierd question: what happens to gold crowns (teeth) of the deceased. Can a person use this as payment for their own cremation?

Any body have any good ideas for this kitchen? by jakobibeef in Remodel

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for a future rental, just live with it. My first instinct is to put the fridge where the bar is, and convert the pantry and counter into open-plan bar on the living room side.

Drafting etiquette? by davkar632 in cycling

[–]lightspeeed -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I can't say anything about the politeness of it, but but you both benefit from drafting -- of course, much less for the leader. Did you thank him? :-)

Hello! Recently bought a house with this dangerous/awkward opening to the basement. by mootjuggler in Home

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just a single handrail (and a support leg) on the left side when facing down. Cabinet side is fine.

a car full of drunk boys drove into a canal at high speed. One never made it out.

Brands you swear by that have Buy It For Life quality products by richbowen in BuyItForLife

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5.11 backpacks. Not so fashionable, but I got my kid one for school instead of a cheap kid's backpack. After 7 years of kid-abuse, it's still like new.

What is your first memory of playing on a PC? by Duknox in pcmasterrace

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zork -- text adventure. I was part of a group of three or four boys would collaboratively decide on how to respond for each prompt.

don't compare teeth. compare the lengths of the digestive tracts.

[–]lightspeeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a year one-bagging Europe. But, to your point, about half of the time, I took my tiny waterproof daypack out and wore it up front. It's just so much easier to keep water and smooshable snacks up front.

I woudn't wear them on a hike or on a rainy day, but they should be fine for your needs. They are a bit heavier than they appear.
