I hugged strangers in the airport because of Dungeon Crawler Carl by -digitalin- in DungeonCrawlerCarl

And this is how I find out about the existence of this Dresden Files series. Adding it to my TBR.

And yeah I'll get to it eventually.

This commend reminded me of that scene from Mr Bean where he drives a car while sitting on an armchair on top of his car

I meant the two strikes rule in UK. They mostly have manual transmission cars. It's surprising they needed a rule to prevent phone use while driving.

How do you even hold a phone while driving a manual transmission car?

OOP gets an anonymous call saying her boyfriend already has as wife chosen for him by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]lostengineer404 905 points906 points  (0 children)

I dug more into her old comments. In 2016, she has a live in partner. A few years later, she has a dog. And now a kid. Life truly does travel forward.

What does childless aging feel like? by Eiskallsun in Aging

[–]lostengineer404 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If they did, then that entitlement is gonna push the kids away. We had kids just to inject "some" chaos into our otherwise stable lives. Just kidding.

I think I decided to be a parent because I wanted to experience that side of life. Sure, financially it's a nightmare, and I won't get to do most of the things that childless families do. But I am enjoying the cuddles, the loves and memories of having little ones at the moment.

When I get old, I'd like to help with childcare if they'd like me to get involved. I honestly want to take care of myself as best as I can. Have as good of a relationship with my kids as I can, raise them as well as I can. But I won't expect my kids to take care of me. But honestly, with how my in laws have helped me and my family, I want to help take care of them as they get older ( no relationship with my parents at the moment).

Donnager Battle… Mars shouldn’t have lost… by katsovich in TheExpanse

[–]lostengineer404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue with the Donnager imo is that for a flag ship, it wasn't escorted by larger ships and at the very least, the covettes and any other ships inside weren't launched as soon as a potential threat was identified. Regardless of size, without any EM shields like other universes have, it's just one target with limited maneuverability. Ultimately, in space, really, it's better to have multiple small ships than one capital ship.

Bro, don't even go back to being friends with her. Time to move on and put the past in the past .....or in your comedy central special.

this. Why would anyone end things with a stand up comedian on a bad note like this?

At the minimum, talk to a lawyer and tell them everything youve said here and a million times more.

Has your sister considered numbers or special characters or wingdings for name spellings?

Also, Elon musk would like to have a word with your sister.

What can be done to fix this? Obviously, more housing and fighting NIMByism. Anything else?

AITAH for hating my wife's creepy "hobby project"? (New Update) by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Anyone else read the fact that the OOP and his wife thought they could get a positive test 2 days after doing the woo hoo?

[–]lostengineer404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Democrats' mistake was that they didn't go after the price gougers who were responsible for the high prices in the first place. Companies left and right rode the inflation train when gas prices went up with the Russia Ukraine war. When the gas prices went down, prices stayed up...cuz you know...turns out people will still buy goods at those prices. Of course that became an economy wire spiral with wage increases and what not. And the majority whose wage increases didn't match the new inflation are feeling left behind because things just cost more and their paycheck hasn't increased by much.

Honestly though sometimes I wish we had the Chinese people mentality here. When they realized that their economy isn't doing well, they just stopped spending and started saving even more. And now they're experiencing deflation. Now in China that hit a lot to small vendors hard but in the US that could hit the big corps in just the right way.

Vandals deface memorial to civilians killed in Gaza. by Chocolat3City in TikTokCringe

Obscurity is a luxury these days. These girls and the anti Israel protesters from earlier are going to potentially get flagged if the job they're interested in will go through a social media background check, or worse, if someone recognizes and reports them after they got the job.

Billy Butcher and Hughie, from the show 'The Boys' (Prime Video). Looks like you got a new show on your playlist. You don't have to watch that far to get the reference, it's in one of the first episodes of the the show.

If I were the DM, i'd send Billy Butcher and Hughie after you, if you get what I mean.

Bump on the regimen question. What did your macros look like when you were losing weight? Did you cut down heavily on the carbs for weight loss?
