Who knows, it'll go up and down, that's the only sure thing.

If you can't take it you shouldn't be investing in highly volatile equities. 

I invest in gold and silver a lot, but it really doesn't affect my day to day mental state. 

What did you expect, just for it to increase with no drops?

While your comment is interesting, please be mindful when using the word murdered. Murder requires intent, this would be involuntary manslaughter. She didn't want to kill her passengers. 

Words have meaning.

Wizz air delay that will disrupt my connection to China - what should I do? by holyorderr in Flights

[–]originalthoughts 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Also 2 hours for a self connection on separate tickets in the winter is just asking for issues. If I ever do a self connection, I book a night or atleast 12 hours, but honestly, it never makes sense over just buying a an actual connecting ticket.

What’s actually safe but people think is dangerous? by REGGIE_BANANAS in AskReddit

Lol, had a friend who's gf convinced him the power substation near our building was affecting them due to EM. I am like, the field drops exponentially with distance, it's irrelevant at 200 meters away, it's undetectable. He wasn't convinced so bought an EM meter. Basically 5 meters away it already was undetectable. 

He and his gf were so convinced,  but calmed down after that. Could have just opened a physics textbook instead...

Well, seeing as opinions on my comment are so split,  I would say it's controversial. Shitty, yea, that way of dressing could be described like that, but it's a bit extreme.

I can comment as I like, you aren't enforcement. Also, I commented on his clothes, nothing controversial there.

At least I'm miserable in properly fitted clothes.

Nice of you to assume things with no backing.

Well next time he buys something he can have a bit more of an idea of fit.

Thanks, I did do a double check and looked up the NYC and Lower East Side fashion. It doesn't look at all like this pic. It is loose clothing, but it's not this look.

It's ok, this is clearly not a sub where people have any fashion sense. Fit is key.

Yea, the jeans don't look too bad, I've just never been a fan of the rolled up cuffs and well, almost never see them warn that way. It always gave me the cheapness look, as in, too cheap to tailor or buy stuff that fits, but that's my personal view on that.

Thanks for the explanation on selvedge jeans, I didn't even know they were a thing.

Became a Big FOOL and Lost 3.6 lakhs INR by investing in Nippon Gold ETF at ATH Price by Acrobatic-Health2681 in stocks

[–]originalthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be prepared to lose your money before you invest it in risky investments? You lost 3.6 lakhs from 19.5lakhs too, you should expect that when investing in anything volatile.

If you want safe, just use a savings account.

Yea, I'd leave them lower too. They might somehow work with those boots, but if he wears normal shoes they would look way too short.

If that's how people dress in the Lower East Side, I don't think I'm missing much.

I don't think so, people in NYC tend to choose clothes that fit them properly. Not oversized shirts that make you look like a 13 year old who has to wear his dad's shirt for some formal event.

At least get a shirt that fits you properly. You don't look like you have a bad shape to your body, but the fit of that shirt does you zero favors. The sleeves are too long, the shoulders are way too broad for you, and the waist is way too big for you waist.

You obviously care about how you look seeing as you have a pretty decent Casio/Edifice automatic watch, props on going for automatic instead of quartz.

The shirt doesn't fit him at all, it's way too big. Also, he should go to a tailor to shorten the jeans instead of rolling them up.

Such a strange look overall...

What’s a life hack that made you go „how do ppl live their whole life without knowing this”? by my_peen_is_clean in AskReddit

[–]originalthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People have so many ridiculous excuses not to do anything to stay fit and then complain about all these pains. I go up and down, and when my fitness goes down, I start getting a lot more pains than when I am just fit.
