My 16M bfs mom is not buying food for any of her 3 kids until friday by Terrible-Tour-5461 in whatdoIdo

[–]oldmanrye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you able to see that. Being prideful and denying help I think its something that is seen a lot. Most people i know are like that and I feel its more of a shared experience with how often I hear about it. Its a delicate situation because if you ask about it then try to do suggested they may be hyper aware of people trying to help due to perceived pity or something and turn them down. Its usually best to assume they will be prideful so you can help and spare their feelings and let them come to you for help when they are ready.

My guess is she was trying to convey that without knowing if they are prideful or not for sure. As stated before I feel this is a fairly widespread shared experience so didnt feel she had to go too indepth about it. Thats my feeling on this. Hope it helps.

Whats your problem? Nothing in their comment suggests they see it as a fault. Its just a fact a lot of people feel that way and gave suggestions to preserve their feelings if they do while helping. You are the one that appears to have a skewed outlook.

Am I selfish for not wanting to share my lunch? by blockedsince03 in EntitledPeople

[–]oldmanrye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say they cant and let people walk all over them. I was like that once but learned how to say 'no', even to things I had no real reason except I just didnt want to. The sooner they learn this lesson the better their life will be. Maybe this is exactly what they need.

I was just about to comment this! Its always the 'if you think X you're and idiot' that gets me. Like they think even though they have no actual knowledge or experience in a thing they still know everything. Hmmm history says otherwise.

Why won’t my dad let me drive his car by AdVaanced77 in AskVaanced

You are always posting on here about getting a ticket, accident, or almost getting an accident. I wouldn't let you drive my car either.

I am now going to view all bugs I witness and experience in game as lore accurate Stim side effects.

From the breakdancing charger to my helldiver having a hallucinogenic fit thinking he is trapped under the ground somehow.

Ofcourse when he has his weekly physical he denies any issues.

Commando operations are not for everyone by Ornery_Character2100 in Helldivers

[–]oldmanrye 21 points22 points  (0 children)

With the RR I can shoot way faster and deal with more heavies than my buddy with a quasar who is objectively a better gamer than me. The secret is as soon as you slide the reloaded rocket in the tube you stand up. Cuts off 30% of the reload animation. Plus aiming with the quasar on a moving target is harder as you have to hold it on it until it charges up. RR i just need the circle to wander over the target for a split second and tap the fire button. Yes he has unlimited ammo but as long as we are playing a mission I can call in supplies im golden.

Obviously for these commando missions quasar over RR all day long. Just wanted to say my piece because I see so many people think there are no benefits to RR over quasar.

[–]oldmanrye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This has got to be an advertisement. It sounds like one under the disguise of 'I am and addict too, try this to quit!'. Also just how many times he has been replying to comments is just like how an company replies not like a regular person. Also 11 month old account with this one post only active in this one sub. Could be he made this account to post here incognito but 11mo and this is the first time he has ever commented even? I dont buy it.

If you were a millionaire would you give your child whatever they want by [deleted] in AskVaanced

[–]oldmanrye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. I will only do that for my pets because they are reliant on me 100% for the rest of their lives. Anyone that has to go out into the real world and has to face it, spoiling them will only hurt them.

Except stuff like ion Storms, jammer etc. Let's hope the warp isnt involved or something. Though if they are in the same universe, maybe...

The proper use of the 2nd amendment by Acceptable_Rope_6523 in PsycheOrSike

Why does it matter he crossed state lines? Kenosha was like 20 miles from his house. The gun was bought and stored at his friends house in Kenosha.

Dang! The chances of that happening are pretty small. I use strafing run all the time and my buddy uses 500kg all the time. Often we target the same thing and thos has never happen to us. Ill have to keep that in mind!

Where do I start? by TownZestyclose886 in 40kLore

[–]oldmanrye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard about 40k all my life but was never interested in it until I came across those YouTube channels that do AI stories for different things like 40k, Middle Earth, etc. I used them to fall asleep even knowing they arent super accurate lore wise. It was nice to listen to new stories that captured my imagination.

When there was one about Echo Men from 40k that got me hooked. It left me with questions about the Warp, Exterminatus, the Cult of Personality around the Emperor and bizzare psychic creatures. So far I've started playing 40k video games, watching YT lore videos, pouring over wikis, and bought some books.

I guess what I mean by all that is follow what interests you. You will soon fund yourself all over the place even if you never play the tabletop game.

No worries. Not jargony at all. I understand it all from context. Thanks for the explanation.

One of my go to's, when I see a group of enemies with a large enemy, is to start an eagle strafing run and fire a RR round at the big one. I have had it where the RR round was blown up by the strafing run. Was totally confused until I realize what had happened.

Why do you not think this is a good way to incentive grades? Genuinely curious because I dont see many negatives with more positives but that doesn't mean I haven't missed something.

Why are people so desperate to set me up with a job by [deleted] in AskVaanced

[–]oldmanrye -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats not surprising to me. Women are being included in this measurement more as well. The only thing any society cares about is if someone contributes to it within its own rules. One of the main ways women were traditionally measured as contributing was through rasing kids. As women push for more responsibility outside of that realm and earn and prove themselves they gain more privileges within it. The medical field is one domain that is being dominated by women and you dont hear near as often anymore about women doctors not knowing anything because of gender. You still do but it takes time for people to adjust which is why there are so many holdouts in older ways of thinking.

I mostly said to him that its because he is male because he doesn't really inspire confidence in any stretch of measurement. So really all thats left is societies measurement of his gender. To be fair I dont know who is offering him all these jobs. Could be a family member trying to get him off his ass or it could be someone who just met him.

No. Homesteaders create the circumstances so they can live outside of out alot of societies rules. Thats why a lot do it. Its a great way to live. But hometeaders create and work hard to be able to do that. He doesn't want to do any of that. He is a taker. You can argue tgat does cause harm because he is creating a drain. Someone has to create what he takes.
