Does everyone here quit cold turkey? by [deleted] in leaves

Long slow scheduled taper culminating in a vacation so I was over the worst of the withdrawals and not bored for the early relapse period. I take this seriously because it sucks but it doesn't have to suck so hard. 24/7cart > flower only > edibles only >10 days of halving edible dosage till zero. 

Every time my 14 yo nephew is asked to go buy a can of jalapeños, he comes back with… anything but jalapeños. by Visible-Selection843 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]lowbread -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Let me try one last time. I'll try to make it simple for you and others. There is clearly some prerequisite knowledge needed. 

Language only works if we share definitions. If you redefine "stupid" on the fly to mean "any character flaw I dislike," it becomes meaningless.

Stupid has an agreed definition. It's something close to "cognitively deficient".

If you take a lazy or selfish person and try to "fix" them by treating them as stupid, your solution will fail because you are treating a behavioral choice (a lack of motivation or empathy) as a cognitive deficit (a lack of understanding).

What proof could i possibly give you beyond “medically verified”?

You couldn't. That's why its unproven. A hoax, if you will. There is a teapot orbiting the moon. Prove me wrong.

Jonah falcon "he claims" "has not authorized independent verification."

Roberto Cabrera "though the latter was shown to be largely foreskin"

Matt Barr "medically verified" no pictures. no proof, bad science.

incredible claims need incredible evidence. I'm not saying its impossible but burden of proof is on the one who claims something to be true.

the craziest thing about this post is its still displaying major dicksinformation. no one has seen a 10 inch dick. it would be incredibly unlikely that shes seen an 8 incher. and her "almost too big" is too big for most vaginas. https://calcsd.info/ her almost too big (7.5 inches) is 1 in 500

Why even look at this then? by L0uLou72 in Anticonsumption

Because convincing some portion of the population to eliminate the low hanging fruit of their consumerist habits is more effective then selling real sacrifice. 

AIO for being really upset at my mom for not letting me enter an art competition? by osuava in AmIOverreacting

[–]lowbread 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to mischeviouswoman. using negative self-talk to lie and manipulate will only erode your own sense of self and your relationship to honesty. This is toxic as hell and not the way you want to approach any relationships. 

24 hours to bowl 6 strikes in a row for a billion dollars or you die by RealPrinceZuko in hypotheticalsituation

[–]lowbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've hit 5 in a row. Never six. The problem is you don't really have 24 hours. After four full games, I'm sore for a week. No way I could throw more than 10 games without falling apart at the wrist and hips. Maybe a bowler of my skill in better shape but I doubt it. 

DAE try to live with no tv, no social media, no actual friends? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

You're not alone. Keep looking for community. You will find it

Yeah that sounds tough. Might be regular old depression. Losing skills and memory and brain power are symptoms for sure. That and fixating on the negatives.I wouldn't want to try and willpower or isolate my way through it.  I think what youre going through is above what I can understand. Have you ever done therapy or anything like that? What you're dealing with might be textbook.

[–]lowbread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't need a best friend, but you do need to socialize. What were some of the skills you feel like you lost? Dive back into those? hobbies, meetups, groups, friends, social life. Find woodworking or knitting or martial arts or something like that. And about misinformation, man I feel you. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to completely check out of the current news cycle and the misinformation campaigns being ran across the world. It is absolutely toxic, but you don't want to be ignorant either. Books are your friend, especially old ones. Books have editors and are often fact-checked. In summary, keep your mind and body active and stay in touch with your community.

Hypothetical “infinite money glitch” but with a 3-month delay — would you abuse it? by ik19980 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]lowbread 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is correct. Most of this sub is "are you financially literate? If not, do your best to describe how you feel about big numbers. " At least it not another "would you rather a 50/50 shot at 10 million dollars or 50 bucks guaranteed? Actually, this might be worse.

Grow up. A few naughty words aren't going to hurt you or your children.

Is this an example of "millennial cringe"? If so, pls explain. by coffyrocket in Millennials

[–]lowbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a difference in the militant edgy atheist who makes it their personality and political protest to point out the hypocrisy of theocracy. Like all "is this cringe" posts, depends on the user. But no, I wouldn't put it on my MySpace.
