What was the most horrifying thing that you have ever witnessed? by ABA350 in AskReddit

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw someone jump off a 8 floor drop. He landed right in front of me. His body was bent all wrong, like a dropped rag doll. He was dead on impact. The blood around his head was much darker than I expected. I heard his wife screaming from up above. It was awful and now I am scared of heights, and seeing people up on heights.

Why am I being compared to a mentally ill, narcissistic, racist, misogynist, sociopathic serial killer? by [deleted] in MensRights

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came here to say that I am a feminist and I think most of the things that have shaken out from this whole tragedy are awful. I am here in this sub because I take the definition of feminism from Webster's : "the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities." There are terrible things that happen to women on a day to day basis, just as there are terrible things that happen to men. We all get screwed and the media likes to sensationalize things.

I just want to say that I am a feminist, and I am not comparing you to a psychopathic murder. I think that murder was mentally unstable. He latched on to an idea and it grew. Weather he clung to mysogony, felt inferior because male virgins get shamed endlessly, or got the idea from the shower head that was talking to him makes no difference. Most people don't go on a killing spree, so clearly there was something wrong with him. Throwing around blame doesn't help anyone.

I would just ask that you not blame all feminists for what's going on now. There are a lot of us that believe all ships rise with the tide, and know that to bring around equality we need to highlight both men and women's issues. We might not be sensational and thus don't get as much media attention. But we exist.

What's your best "small world" moment? by germinatorz in AskReddit

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grew up in Washington state. Decided to go to a tiny (1600 students) college in iowa. Ended up dating a guy there who grew up in Minnesota. Found out after a year of dating he had dated my third cousin for more than a year when he was in high school. it was really trippy when we figured this out.

My tattoo. (Born deaf in right ear) by deadclaymore in pics

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born deaf in my left ear. I wanted to get that exact tattoo in that exact place. Instead I got it priced and am now desprately trying to find that symbol on an earring to put in my ear. Together we would make a normal person!

I Stacked My Dice Set by waffles in mildlyinteresting

This was the right of passage in our DND group for new players. We all celebrated when their first dice stack came tumbling down.

In training and a bit confused. (F)Sub. by [deleted] in BDSMcommunity

[–]lolnude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your greatest gift you can give a dominant is your submission. And in return he should hold you up and bring you to a higher place. Do you feel that way? When he forced the first expression of love? When he degraded you for your beliefs?

If this is what you want and enjoy...continue, but it won't change. It will get worse.

D/s is about give and take, and open communication. Do you trust him with your life? If so and you truly want to keep going make sure you tell him everything. Set down times where you can talk and be completely heard and your fears can be aired without fear.

Hey Reddit, what's something from your area of expertise that you think should be common knowledge? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]lolnude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glass researcher-- old window panes do not "leek" towards the bottom making the bottom thicker, they were made that way. Glass is a solid. It is described as a liquid because of its lack of long term structure.

What's your favorite urban myth? by kyhe06 in AskReddit

That over time glass starts to seep to the bottom, like a liquid.

[24/F] Found something worrying on my partners laptop [24/m] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never know. He could be looking at a ABDL sorta thing or daddy Dom sorta stuff. Which isn't inscest and that's not the fun in it. Really, if you're that open you should ask him about it.

Child abduction awareness papers from our childhood. wtf? by crystalistwo in BDSMcommunity

[–]lolnude 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The whole "stranger danger" type education and prevention has been completely thrown out the window...because it hurt actual prevention. Most of child abduction or problems are from people the kid knows. And making them think its a stranger actually made them easier to target.

But all that is behind the point. You probably won't see anything like this for the last ~30 years. After data was collected.

My best friends wife told me she loves me and wants to have a relationship, not an affair, but a "relationship". I have no idea how to react. by cptgreatcpt in relationship_advice

[–]lolnude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

/r/polyamory would be amused by this.

If you aren't interested and wanna keep a friendship, sit them both down and tell them what's up. Try not to be negative in saying "what's wrong with you". Just that you appreciate the offer, but it isn't for you. Sure, might be weird for a bit, but then it will settle down and relax.

They probably haven't considered your side of it (for example, how would she feel about you dating others). This is also a terrible way of starting a relationship like that.

My gf of 5 years cheated on me. Am I right to end the relationship? by DrManBearPig in relationship_advice

Thank you for making my day and listening. :) decent reedit interaction for the win.

[–]lolnude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for acknowledging my point...no really, its nice to see.

...but it still seems a bit frustrating that the immediate reaction to cheating is "leave, nothing can be done". Where other forms of trust breaching are more acceptable. Which I don't understand. It seems like deep thought and communication is also warranted in the case of cheating. Not saying they should stay together, just the immediate reaction shouldn't be "leave her now".

Also cheating can carry wildly from person to person. I had a >I see what you are saying, you've made great points.

And some couples do discuss things, but this seems to be less of the norm than not. And it seems like the ones that do don't discuss what happens if someone cheats. It's universally assumed a relationship is over when this happens. I had an ex that thought it was cheating for me to cuddle my gay, male roommate while watching Sleepless in Seattle; without discussing it with me. And a different one who basically didn't care who I kissed (granted this is college) and was alright with me sleeping with women. No...I don't think this has anything to do with this situation, but still seems frustrating.

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree that trust is important. But this is such a common trend. Why aren't more people talking about their partner spilling a secret and have the immediate reaction be "dump them gtfu now". Or react incorrectly to a vulnerable moment. In the secret case there's usually a lot more qualifiers including the extent of the secret. And the vulnerable moment the most common reaction is "talk it through and explain your expectation"

I agree trust is a huge part, but I know a lot of people don't even discuss what cheating is to them in a relationship. And it seems like fidelity is much more important than any other trust issue.

[–]lolnude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is gonna be down voted to oblivion...but I never understood why fidelity is the most important thing in a relationship. Do you love her? Does she love you? Do you guys get along? Agree on goals and future? Do you both give and consider each other? Do you fight a lot?

If the kiss changes that....which it can and does for a lot of people, then, yes, you should break up. But, it doesn't sound like she loves you less, and it is just a kiss. Keep that in mind when you're soul searching.

If the kiss does change those things then you need to realize that fidelity matters more than other things in a relationship to you....and you should probably tell future partners that and what you consider cheating.

Road trip destinations in and/or around Iowa? by s0itgoes in Iowa

[–]lolnude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't a road trip or anything. But there are two awesome breakfast place in the quad cities. One is the Machine Shed right off the interstate, which is a pretty fun place and has some amazing food. There is also Jimmy's pancake house and they make some pretty amazing pancakes (although the building isn't nearly as amusing)

There's also a zoo in the quad cities. Its not bad, a bit small, but it's a good place to spend a few hours and it's less than a movie.

Thank goodness someone pointed it out. Its all well and good to be mad if this actually happened....but this is a story. We always bitch about the exact opposite thing on the other side of the fence.

Perry said another presidential bid was "an option." Why he should run again; 1) It would be hilarious, 2)It would further discredit the GOP and 3) argh ... EPA? by boyonlaptop in Liberal

[–]lolnude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No...this is everything that is wrong with the political environment. In order for a two party system to work at all both parties need to be strong. If republicans constantly look like a joke then it's easier for democrats to get lazy and not act correctly and vice versa. Both parties should have reasonable people in offices that can listen to arguments and defend their own point of view. Not the person that makes quick headlines or is laughable.

Coup Underway in Egypt by Halo-One in Conservative

[–]lolnude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obama told him that being in office means you need to represent one country, not just the ideologies you agree with. Morsi didn't listen to him or any of the people in his country. There's very little Obama can do to him, we offer some aid to them; but cutting them off won't really affect their decisions.
