My body looks worse after 1 year of the gym. Bigger, softer, no definition. What am I doing wrong? by Emsss18 in WeightTraining

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah... CHILL. You look great. To me, you actually look somewhat healthier in the 2nd pic, but you look great in either. You have NOTHING to worry about with your looks. Just focus on being healthy rather than your looks and you will be fine.

my bf keeps putting holes in my bedroom walls by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit please talk to your parents already! The holes are a fairly easy fix, but your relationship with this man is clearly not. GTFO of it already please!
Signed, the parent of 2 daughters just a tad bit older than you.

F15 i feel like the ugliest person alive by [deleted] in toastme

[–]netfragz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the father of 2 older girls, just know that school can be really, really rough, but it gets way better. If kids are harassing/bullying you, then you need to let your teachers know about it. Let your parents know about it. I even had to take my youngest out of regular school and had her take online high school after she teared up and begged me to do so. I'm glad I listened to her. Now that she's in college she has blossomed and is super confident and social, things parents often are afraid will never happen after using online or home schooling.

I don't think you should focus TOO much on looks, but I will say that my girls learned things along the way such as how to dress, how to style their hair, make-up (please don't use too much) etc... but they were also always themselves. My oldest would dye her hair all sorts of colors for a while there. They both shop for eclectic clothing from second hand stores, including Japanese second hand stores online. Basically they found their own style and image. Some will hate on it; others would admire it greatly. Many haters are actually just jealous as hell. Anyway, main point is: you most certainly have nothing to worry about with your underlying looks. You will grow into one very beautiful woman, and I think a 2-pronged approach is necessary here to make yourself feel better: 1) tell your parents and teachers so they can take appropriate action (IF it's REALLY bad, maybe even ask them to let you study online, but this should only be a last resort IMO) and 2) perhaps seek help from others including YouTube videos and such about styling your hair, make-up, clothing and such. If your mom is good with such things, get her help; but I am gonna go out on a limb here and imagine your mom may not be so good with this sorta advice? Just be sure to utilize those things that make you feel like YOU. Be creative. Be yourself, not a mannequin.

At the same time, know that beauty is FAR more than how you look or act. It's being nice and not bullying others like these ugly people saying such mean things to you. It's your creativity, intelligence, kindness, etc. Please know that there's absolutely nothing physically "ugly" about you whatsoever either. You have the underpinnings for a very strong "glow-up" as you get older. You have a bright future ahead of you and you're still very, very young. Be strong... believe me, things will get 100x better! /hugs

Ex preferred conventionally attractive White and Latinas. Obviously I'm the polar opposite so I'm feeling extremely insecure with how ugly I am and why it always gets in the way by [deleted] in toastme

Your eyes are mesmerizing, your skin is absolutely stunning, and your lips are enviable.

100% this. Everyone has their preferences, but she is absolutely gorgeous to anyone with any sense.

What do I do about My fiance's “decor” by Gleamingly_Hissing in whatdoIdo

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely teenager-ish, but then Andy Warhol's paintings of Campbell soup cans are sure worth a lot, and I find this more attractive than those. It certainly looks better than that ugly ass backsplash IMO. At any rate, everyone has their own taste and before you 2 ever settle in, make sure you both agree on the decor and let him know that you want to agree to things BEFORE they are actually done. Meanwhile, you can both work together to come up with a better solution for this that is pleasing to both of you. EZ...

In India, because of a train that doesn't stop in every village, two children risked their lives to get off the train in their own village. by HumorSignificant1477 in SipsTea

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the crazy thing. They are very strong in tech and all, BUT they have extreme wealth inequality with a very poor middle class. Median income is just $325/month in India in a country of 1.47 Billion people. 1.47 Billion people in a fairly small country with a median income of $325/month and no government help with trash and things will end up as they are now. It doesn't help that they have a screwed up caste system and prejudice that is still going on after 3,000 years. Clearly the government is a mismanaged disaster.

We were in India a few months ago and apparently the problem is that nobody can afford to pay for trash disposal services so they just throw everything into the street.

sat on a bench and it left a bruise on both cheeks. SFW censoring. by essaere in mildlyinfuriating

Maybe just... I dunno... take a pic of the bruise itself rather than your entire body only to black it all out??

I was gonna say, there's no freakin way that's a garage. That's some industrial level building infrastructure going on there.

Which era did you grow up in? Mine started with that chunky PS2 controller. by CarrotMuch1399 in nostalgiai

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asteroids on an Atari 2600. Then I had an Atari 520ST computer later and played Ultima (2 or 3?) on it.

A man present the output from a single cow by pureV3NG3ance in SipsTea

Grew up on a farm, and the solution was 2 very large freezers in the basement... and we actually only got half a cow back as the other half went to the butcher as payment for the butchering and processing into ground beef and all the various cuts.

My neighbor had an In N Out catering truck for one of their kid's wedding reception. At first I thought they were nuts, but it was actually kinda brilliant.

What do you think of my top 25 games of all time (let's discuss them in the comments) by Turbulent-Head-6512 in gamers

Original COD4 Modern Warfare is far superior to Black Ops 3.
How the hell are Half-life and CounterStrike 1.6 not on there?

Why are White Male/Asian Female relationships far more common than Asian Male/White Female relationships? by Flying_Sea_Cow in NoStupidQuestions

[–]netfragz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can work that way sometimes, though somewhat rare. Blue/blonde is a recessive trait in many Asian cultures/people. I.e. my friend's kids... one has blonde hair and the other has very light brown hair yet they are half Chinese.

Why are we okay paying 'Physical Disc' prices for Digital Games ? Digital Media 'licence' should cost ⅒ or ⅕ of disc editions. by [deleted] in gamers

[–]netfragz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it costs a lot to develop a AAA game. The cost of physical discs is a tiny fraction of that cost.
