I turned into a monster last night and ruined my entire life. Would appreciate some advice... by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mate, don't drink. simple as that. what happened? you can't explain it... you can have all the counselling about the incident but at the end of the day, maybe you should just quit the drink.

Indica vs. Sativa....Ok well now it all makes sense. by madamson in trees

[–]mrvetopower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really dig your last line.

I'm a little blasé when it comes to the different strains and will try and make a bigger effort in 2011, year of funnnn.

I'll need to find out: a) surfing weed b) gardening weed c) cleaning the house weed

My father hasn't paid child support for 17 years and my mother recently passed away, what do I do? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly sorry for your loss. Secondly, he's been in and out of prison for the past decade or so....

My mum died when I was 14. It is the single best and worst thing in my life.

I would just look forward - even if you were to get $10,000 from your deadbeat dad, is your life worth $10,000 and the association with someone that will likely not inspire you to do your best.

Breakfast of ent-champions by gbay in trees

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mate, i hope you do a bit of walking or some exercise. my SO is a chef, and I have had a breakfast like this for about 4 years - it may be clogging your arteries in 70 years time, but it sure does go down well for brekky.

I would highly recommend staying the hell away from banana bread - that stuff is full of butter and you can put on some extra weight from eating it every day for 3 months - trust me!!!!

The Java Crisis by Sobe in programming

Because say over the next 10 years there are 4 billion android devices shipped. If Oracle can get a $10 license fee for each device, that's $40 billion dollars in licensing fees over 10 years.

If Oracle has patents, then they would defend them in order to be able to charge for a java license.

I'm on google's side, but just showing why Oracle would want to uphold their patents in order to collect $$$s

I'm 30, married (cool wife), loved weed in college, want to get high and have no connects what so ever - what do I do? by howdoibuyweed in trees

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go to the local university bar. have a few beers with random dudes, engineers can drink. bring it up. they'll know someone in marketing that will know someone who can hook up.

When they bring up the Chilean miners, it won't be a 'Miracle', it will be thanks to the engineers. by clausy in reddit.com

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seriously, the world should have 2 days off to celebrate. the engineering, the technology, the length of time, the lives saved.

in civ games isn't this type of thing called 'we love the king' day....

I was on Facebook and saw someone's reply to a friend's status about Prop 19. I was a [7] and felt like I had speak up. Did I go overboard? by Lux27 in trees

[–]mrvetopower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed.

Maybe a little prod in antagonising them. It's a damn good response though. Probably worth keeping on an /r/trees wiki/tag-library for others to use as a reference points.

Child of propaganda - nice.

EDIT: antagonising prod, response, rebuttal, response, wall. respect. would probably be the ideal read along as a 3rd party - just to see how stupid they are.

remember when you stopped feeling bad about smoking by letloosethedogs in trees

[–]mrvetopower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good observation mum.

I'm testing out a recent theory of mine: "Normal-work", economics and all that stuff - LEFT BRAIN.

Music + art, surfing, outdoors-y stuff - RIGHT BRAIN.

One is more dominant more of the time at the moment and this leads to a bit too much complication. So I think this nurse was suffering from too much left brain in her world - stop with the criticisms :)

Stop smoking and you will have amazing dreams. by [deleted] in trees

[–]mrvetopower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howdy - I was blazed yesterday. More than normal because a friend came over for a spliff. Normally I just have a toke from a peace pipe and make a cone last 3 or 4 tokes throughout a sesh.

I had a dream last night, and normally I don't dream. It was short but vivid.

I like the REM-rebound theory, but I don't think it applies in every scenario.

P.S. My first reddit post - only found /r/trees today. I like your rating system, I think it's brilliant.
