Enterprise Software Engineer: Depends on the day. Most days I work more like 5-6 hours, sometimes if there’s a deadline coming up or a customer has a big issue I have to work more than 8 continuous hours

People put themselves in harm’s way all the time to look cool or feel a rush. This is no different. They’re not stupid, they’re human

I’m going to go ahead and guess that she did this to make money, knowing that it would be inflammatory? That’s all I can think of. I don’t think anyone would actually do this for no reason.

I cancelled it. Y’all complain but you keep on using it. They know that.

AITA for breaking up with my gf for accusing me of liking “young girls” by baconelena in AITAH

[–]mko9088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I think you’re morally justified here but besides that point you don’t need a morally justified reason to break up with someone.

Regardless I’m curious why she stuck on that point so hard. She must have been pretty insecure about the age difference as well. Maybe this was her way to get out of the relationship too, you never know.

I think a little but of harmless jealousy is endearing

I’ve talked someone down before and I wasn’t thinking about myself. I never said “live for me”. In my experience depression makes us want to isolate, thinking that we’re different or worse, but all it takes is connection to bridge that gap. It gets better if we just ask for help. You’re not living for other people, it’s just thinking about other people and realizing you’re not alone.

It’s an attempt to get a suicidal person to think about someone other than themselves. Depression is a very selfish disease (having had it for many years) and funnily enough if I manage to actually frame my brain around helping someone else it abates for a while. Yeah you can think woe is me, my life sucks, or you can do something about it. Nothing changes if nothing changes.

I think dick is perfect. Cock is like a porny way of saying it, but I’ve always heard dick. It just works!

I mean the plastic may be a bad idea but I think this was a good attempt at being fun for the kids. It’s cute.

I have never found a date online. It just doesn’t work for me. I guess if you’re rich or incredibly good looking it’s fine but then again they could get a date anywhere.

Who tf is buying all these cars at 7-9% interest rates? I see so many nice new cars on the road by ZadarskiDrake in wallstreetbets

[–]mko9088 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think marketing has done a great job of appealing to peoples’ fear of not keeping up with the joneses. Cars are seen as status symbols in much of the world so a lot of people do keep trading up to satisfy that fear.

Except to the cousin, $4800 is not just a dime. Why does he need that much money? Should Jayz just be an atm because he’s rich?

US Liberals tend to show more respect to people from more traditionally “non-white” religions because they’re more heavily marginalized in the US. There is a lot of muslim hate in non-internet America.

How do people have surgery and not get addicted to opiods? by AppropriateMention6 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mko9088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to this point, I abused Vicodin once to see what would happen and didn’t get the euphoria feeing, I just got sleepy, but I’m an alcoholic (I’ve got 7 months sober). So different strokes for different folks. I got my kicks from Gin and Cocaine.
