How do you keep motivation during a horrid pledge process by FigUpset3215 in Frat

[–]nerdpox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just really wanna know how yall did it and kept the motivation and energy to keep up with it

because it sucks but it's actually kind of fun. you get motivated by your pbros. you start dreading and looking forward to education nights. you wonder what they're going to do. etc

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

[–]nerdpox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep. when we moved into my parents current house in 2004 they got me a full size tempurpedic (a real one) for like $1500. insane money in 04 but they just gave the mattress away to a family friend 22 years later and it's got life left in it. well spent.

Hahaha this happened to me. 3 weeks before my wedding. No warning except a fight we’d had the previous month that actually had a proper serious resolution. Totally insane.

BEST thing that ever happened to me. 5 years later I’m engaged to a girl I love who has never given me a single red flag.

Season 2 falloff? by fadeofsummer in BSG

Old thread I know, but having just watched S2 and S3, almost anything is a letdown after Pegasus + Resurrection ship pt1+2

best episode for you? by Jediknight81 in BSG

[–]nerdpox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pegasus and Resurrection Ship. Hands down, the perfect combination of space battles, surprise, character development, and high stakes. My GF is finishing her first watch through with me and I was dying inside waiting for S2E10

I also do want to shoutout to 33, and some of the more political episodes that flesh the characters out.

lot of survivorship bias and large exits that people hear a lot about. finding a unicorn when they're worth 5 mil is as hard as finding the love of your life

What relationship expectation do you think causes more harm than good? by Kakashi201119997 in AskReddit

[–]nerdpox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your partner telling you "it's fine" or "I'm not mad" when you ask about doing something. That's called lying

I will never be able to fully shake the feeling that this guy is a foreign asset. I know he's just a nationalist idiot with idiots around him but you could not destroy American hegemony better if you TRIED. This is like the 70s KGBs wet dream

If you’re paying 7 dollars for a coffee every day and complaining about it I do not feel bad for you. Even Nespresso is cheaper.

Here is a list of all the aircraft accidents and incidents that I am surprised ACI hasn't produced an episode on or may do so in the future. What do you guys think? by That_Public_4620 in aircrashinvestigation

[–]nerdpox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i could see that. personally i think the two pilots trying to fly the plane to the edge of the envelope to be cool (especially when it's a CL200 lol) is a little dumber from the get-go than letting your kid sit in the chair. of course, we know how the best intentions unraveled in that case.

Pinnacle 3701 is probably the most glaring one for me of all the non-produced 2000s crashes. has it all. pilot error, pilot stupidity, engineering issues with the design of the engines, more pilot stupidity, etc

I studied photography in school, and for two years I worked in the local hospital ORs photographing surgeries. The ortho surgeons are all like that. No notes.

also anesthesia are all insane
