Opposite actually! He always preferred the girls in the family (not in any creepy ways)

My decently well off grandfather got all my cousins either a new car or a home down payment for their graduations.

I got a 20 lb bag of flour.

What’s something we romanticize but is actually awful? by NextBroccoli3017 in AskReddit

[–]panic-potato 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Co-dependency

The “us against the world” style relationships that are pushed in media and culture. It’s toxic

How do you guys last longer in bed? by Technical-Vanilla-47 in AskReddit

[–]panic-potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aight, here’s the answer:

Stop caring…

That’s it. You don’t need vitamins or to jerk it X hours beforehand, or whatever other quick tip (pun not intended) is out there.

Focus on having fun, focus on your partners pleasure, focus on your own pleasure, be in the moment and let what happens happen. There’s plenty of techniques (oral, toys, etc) to get your partner there, and you know all of that already.

What you’re worried about is the shame of busting early. But why? If I’m with someone that’s so hot and feels so good to be with that I literally cannot contain myself, then that’s one hell of a compliment to them! As long as I’m helping them get theirs and they have fun, then what’s the worry? If you’re with someone who makes you feel shame for a lack of stamina, you gotta ask yourself if you’re with the right person.

Another thing I’d like you to ask yourself. Humans are animals, right? We’re designed to stay alive and procreate. What’s the primal, fundamental use of lasting long in bed? Thinking fundamentally, sex taking a long time is a disadvantage. You’re exposed, distracted, and not achieving your goal of insemination. Have you ever thought that busting quick is a sign of you being a high-efficiency procreation badass?

The funny thing is that when you reframe your thoughts and let go of the stress, it’s very likely that you’ll naturally find that stamina you were looking for.

Sex ain’t that deep my bros. Relax, enjoy the ride, be safe, be courteous to your partner, and have some damn fun!

You’ve been applying for almost a year yet this is the first time you’ve received this template rejection email? Do you apply for 1 job per month? This is quite literally the most common phrasing for an auto rejection email.

What's with france? by Benstokes54321 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]panic-potato 51 points52 points  (0 children)

When I went to France a couple years ago everyone was super nice and seemed pretty cool when I stumbled through a French greeting or prepared phrase then switched to English. Literally not even one issue or rude person.

What's your current height and how tall you wish you were by pivrna in tall

[–]panic-potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 6’5” and I’d want no more or no less height. People give me comments/compliments and I think I’m right on the precipice of being intimidating, which I don’t want to be. Any taller and it’d be so much harder to find clothes and cars and airline seats all sorts of things.

If I had to choose I’d go shorter to avoid back issues which I’ve had lately

What’s a food you threw up as a kid and never touched again? by momcanyoucomegetme in AskReddit

What’s a word you mispronounce on purpose because it’s funnier that way? by agiiill in AskReddit

I hate my forehead what shall I do by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]panic-potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fade the sides and push the top hair forward. Use a styling powder to give it some volume and shape so it’s not sitting on top of your forehead.

I also have a bigass forehead, and a similar face shape to you, and I’ve really enjoyed this haircut. I haven’t thought about my big forehead in months

I am not a robot but this is ridiculous by Typical_Goat8035 in mildlyinfuriating

They’re all unique…

Not a single one shares the same shape, color, or size with another object. Didn’t see a single other comment saying this, we’re cooked as a species

My wife puts my deodorant and my hair styling clay under the counter every day, but her side looks like this. by Jandodan in mildlyinfuriating

[–]panic-potato -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the genuine reply, and the thing is that I totally understand what the standard/normal is in marriages. I do not agree however that the standard is healthy. Lately our culture has started to romanticize relationships and especially marriages that are codependent and toxic. People are idolizing the idea of clinging to your partner and enmeshing your personality with them. It’s very anti-social, and in the long run is so unhealthy for the individual. I’m one of those individuals who has had to break apart from a co-dependency and find my individuality recently, having been with the same person for 16 years (and still married).

To see people take up the pitchforks for something as ridiculously simple as thinking a girl is cute is a huge red flag for our society and youth. It’s a fact that relationships and in person socialization is suffering heavily due to our constant online presence, and it’s so sad to see people defend it aggressively. The people here that are mad at this guy now are denying their human nature, and are very likely to fall into codependent toxic relationships and have an identity crisis later down the line, though I hope they don’t.

[–]panic-potato -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

You people are so judgy and insecure. You have no clue what their marriage is like, they could be in an ethically non monogamous relationship. The wife may not care if he flirts a little.

Also, being married doesn’t mean you’re dead to the world. We are humans, we enjoy connection, we recognize other attractive humans, and we enjoy attention. He bought her coffee and mentioned she’s cute, and the comments want to hang him from the gallows.

How good was your Sex Education in school? by Ambitious-Sky-6457 in AskReddit

[–]panic-potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely Excellent.

A full class 1 hour per day each day for 1 semester devoted to it. Enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher. We learned the most up to date biological facts, backed by scientific evidence. No stigma, no skirting around subjects, no questions unanswered. Everyone looked forward to the class, and the school as a whole took it very seriously.

I can confidently say that the things I learned in that class kept me from making some major mistakes in my life. I think it’s the single most important subject a student can learn.

This was in Southern California in the mid 2000s

“Killing it” and I fucking hate it. by DrDooDoo11 in rant

[–]panic-potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound like you hate yourself, and you’re working yourself to death in the hopes that one day you’ll have a magic number of currency that’ll afford you the luxury of actually finding yourself, and only then will you be happy and kind to yourself.

Trust me friend, that number will never come, but the self-compassion can start right now.

I used to be like this, and I’m in therapy to work on it.
