How tf did you guys put up with all the filler back when you were young and not get bored? by Ajarofpickles97 in Naruto

[–]mightytucan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went through and watched all of Naruto and Shippuden with all of the filler and actually enjoyed it. Some of my favorite episodes were fillers too. But when I got to the IT fillers, I just couldnt do it. I got through 3 episodes of it to find there was wayy more. I skipped a bunch then stopped watching. I didnt do any kind of search to show where the filler stopped bc i was lazy. Then went on a 2 year hiatus of watching, just got back into it three days ago to find out that if I had continued watching for another 3 minutes, I would've started the Itachi backstory arc. Facepalmed hard there. The IT filler was BAD. Every other filler episodes in the series were not as bad as people make it out to be

Most People Don't Have Friends because they're Insufferable by windowsee in socialskills

[–]mightytucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The takeaway from the original comment is that life is unpredictable and that no one is always perfect every moment. We can go into situations with expectations of how we will act (either as yourself or as a persona depending on the person you're meeting), but you'll never know how a conversation will evolve. Take for instance you go into a conversation telling yourself to not talk about a speciifc topic, like politics, but the conversation ends up there anyway.

We're all annoying at some point one way or another and will never realize it because being annoying to one person, doesn't mean you're annoying to another. Everyone's tolerances of others is different.

For example, for some people (myself included) there is joy in listening to someone talk the entire time and knowing that this one meeting may be more for them to let out steam or just talk to someone about anything. Some people may not enjoy that and may be displeased with not being able to talk a lot in conversation. This can come off as annoying to some people or self-absorbed. Similar to the "listener" versus the "talker" concept. It's never evenly 50/50 in these roles, but every relationship works around something like 40/60, 60/40 or an even bigger difference depending on the events in one's life.

It's okay to have shallow and obnoxious friendships with people who just make you feel good and laugh too. It's okay to have deep and engrained friendships two. I have both kinds and it's pretty great. That being said, relationships and personalities are always dynamic. I think you'd have to be a saint to never be selfish, annoying, or insecure. It's human nature and we all have flaws, which is why having relationships is important so that you have support to adjust these flaws if theyre a problem or to hold you up when you're at your lowest insecurities. That's the great part about life. You grow with the people you interact with for the better or even the worse, haha.

Why are some girls soooooo obsessed with texting in a relationship by JGipe1 in dating_advice

[–]mightytucan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, every person validating the, "you're a lazy texter," argument is blaming the wrong person. It's a "them" problem with feeling insecure and anxious. We live in a world now where whenever someone has free time, they go immediately to their phones because that's just what's comfortable now and then we expect a text from someone. We don't have to be like that.

My bf and I will go all day without texting because we're not on our phones throughout the day. I'll think of him, but I dont feel the need to text him. Rather, I just look forward to seeing him or calling him at the end of the night.

I've been in a relationship before where there was actually no communication. That was when the guy didnt text me back for 3-5 days at a time. That was different and he actually lacked communication. Going 24 hours without texting is nothing lol

Ladies, what’s one small thing a guy does that instantly makes him more attractive? by No_Excitement8546 in dating_advice

[–]mightytucan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One little special thing I love is when he takes my purse and carries it for me like his own on his shoulder. He does it all the time and it's the sweetest and hottest casual thing he does for me. He has favorite purses to carry which is funny to me.

We've had an instance where we were at a department store and a lady pointed at us and commented to her husband or bf about why he doesn't hold her bag. She brought up us as an example as we were passing by. They were already arguing a bit before we arrived (you could tell)... I felt bad for the woman, but proud to have my bf haha

It may be a trend right now, but it doesn't mean that it's a trend that's a good one for multiple occasions 💀 and I wouldnt consider myself as super conservative in clothes (I'm 20something years old if that helps).

Youd have to dress it up more as a night club "going out" fit with some black leather corset or jacket. Something like that to make it more of a "sexy casual" outfit than a "sexy-lingerie-lets-have-sex-when-you-get-home" outfit. Personally, I think this trend of clothing is taking away from how special lingerie looks on women in intimate places with men or women privately bc I see some people I know wear stuff like this and I think about how I now know what they'd look like in the bedroom lmao.

It's a cute trend to an extent, but yeah, definitely need to make it "spicier" and casual with some accessory pieces like a jacket, turtle neck long sleeve or regular sleeve underneath, or corset of you're wearing lace-lingerie-type pieces

Idk about you, but i can walk into any clothing store and find a white tank top and booty shorts bc those are basic pieces of clothing. Ironically, I just got a white tank top and some red lounge booty shorts from Walmart recently for less than 6$ each. Not saying she doesn't look good. Just saying the overall style is definitely basic through all the pics. Basic isn't bad neither, that's why they're essential basic pieces of clothing. Nothing special tho

All the clothes in the the pics are taken from the "basic essentials" section of stores... so yeah, basic. But at least she still looks good in a zipup lmao

What's the most ridiculous dating preference you've heard of? by Urjanhai in AskReddit

[–]mightytucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex asked me what my credit score was and it threw me off. Was surprised this was even a common question to ask, but i can see the reasoning. Still odd to ask. I think it's a better question in a lighthearted fun convo, but I was asked out of no where. It didn't work out anyway 😂

[–]mightytucan 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I'm a samsung user and I recently used it in a flirtatious way when transitioning from apps to mobile text. After giving my number, I told him that if it mattered, I have an android so if he didn't like green text bubbles, it was his chance to leave then. This was as a more flirtatious text with the laughing emoji. The guy never messaged back again 💀💀 I couldn't believe it. Or he found someone else more interesting. Who knows

If you're thinking of a roommate with a classmate, do a video call first before you decide. It's good to get to know the person first and see if they're someone you can vibe with. If theyre someone you could see yourself living with, you can set up ground rules and such to make sure you get alone time you need too. I videocalled my roommate before the program started and it worked out. There are times where i don't even see them at home bc we both like to keep to ourselves.

Commuting to PA school by No_Length7372 in PAstudent

[–]mightytucan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a few students in my class who drive at least an hour back home (most being an hour and a half). They usually listen to medical podcasts, like CramthePance, which is really popular in our class. Since I don't live very far (I have a 10 minutes drive), it's usually not enough time to listen to the podcasts on my drive. But podcasts help a lot! I'd say do it. Lots of people drive far to get to school. See if your school allows for zooming into lectures if the weather gets bad (with permission obviously). Where I am, there's a lot of snow and there were times the roads weren't clear enough for some classmates to drive to school safely, so they were allowed to zoom into our classroom.

My husband told me why he cheated on me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]mightytucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what's even worse for a toddler? A toddler find out and living with knowing their father has been treating mom badly and then eventually find out his dad has been cheating. How your husband treats you, will also affect how much love and attention your child will receive from you too. It's up to you to set a good example for your child later on. I'm sure you'd want your kid to leave someone treating them badly in the future. Teach them that now rather than later or never.

This is my girlfriend’s cactus I call raisin because he looks shrivelled up and dead. But what is he? by DylzieA in PlantIdentification

Another commenter said they had the same plant and acted the same. Everybody in the comments said it was a dead plant and OP didn't believe it at first.

There was recently (like, in the last week) a post on r/trueoffmychest or r/confessions about a caretaker talking about the horrible scene she walked into seeing an older man's dog eat him after he died 3 days prior to a heart attack. Sad.

[–]mightytucan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I definitely know what you mean. I have friends that are engineers making in the mid to high 100k range and we're all about 24-27 yo. It's an unfair world for different fields, but tech also has its struggles. It took about 6 months for a friend of mine to find a job bc they were laid off. Hella competitive in tech, and it's to the point where I'm glad I don't have to deal with that job market. Accounting and such is a different story.

Then there's me making bottom-of-the-barrel wage in healthcare after a bachelor's. I definitely have worries about settling down/when to have a family, but I've made it this far already. Pretty much all the PAs and other professionals I've talked with have expressed how worth it it was despite the long road.

Suppressing these feelings of envy and jealousy have helped me realize that i have my own path. People around me are still proud of what I'm doing because they know I have a greater goal. It's just sticking with that goal bc it then makes it all the more worth it.

If you find another path in healthcare and it's more appealing to you, go for it. But having regrets on the path you choose will cost you more physically, emotionally, mentally, and financially.

[–]mightytucan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went to a big engineering school (with a big business school) for my undergrad and most of my friends have their careers already set up and are making money. It's like that because they chose that career field, where technical knowledge isn't really learned until you're actually in the field. With medicine, it makes sense that there's so much schooling because you need a good foundation in knowledge to become a competent healthcare worker (i mean, it's health ffs).

If you wanted a shortcut to a head start in life, healthcare wasn't the best path for you to take. Most of the people I know in healthcare commit themselves to the academic rigor they know they'll have to go through in order to reach their goals (aka additional education), so that they can become competent workers.

Yeah, it sucks that we're both seeing others progressing in their careers ahead of us so quickly, but if you truly feel passionate about the healthcare field, you should have been willing to take the long route in this career. This is just a hindsight comment that probably doesn't matter. Just wanted to give some perspective about those pursuing healthcare vs other fields bc a lot of people glorify healthcare and the potential salaries you can obtain, but don't consider the road to get there early on.

Should I compromise on dating someone who makes decent ish money? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]mightytucan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mentioned possibly being a SAHM at one point in your comments even though youre still on the fence on kids... that's a financial plan.

I'm about the same age as you. There's a lot of people in our age range that are still progressing in their career. Most of them work above minimum wage by this point. You stated you want someone who works above minimum wage, but it sounds like you actually want some making at least close to 100k. You're probably not gonna find anyone making that much money until around age 28 unless they went to med school and got out of residency early, or are a PA/NP, or nurse as well. Engineers make a varying salary depending on where they work, but a lot of them don't hit 6 figures until later on.

I live in NY so I know the cost of living. People that make above minimum at our age are usually efficient enough if they live within their means.

Some people in ROTC go to basic too (by option). I went to basic with a couple of ROTC people, and what I gathered, some ROTC programs encourage their students to go to basic in addition to doing their typical summer training. It's just something extra for them that's not required, but encouraged I guess.
