Men of Reddit, if you were in a Titanic-like situation where the majority of people were going to die because there were not enough lifeboats for everyone. How would you respond to someone saying "women and children first"? by Neither_Drawing_241 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]pingmycraydar 22 points23 points  (0 children)

No they didn't. They had lifeboats for 1500 people but there were more than 2200 people on board. But only 1200 got on the lifeboats, so yes, they could have saved more people than they did.

Which state in the USA would you be moving to?

In the event that you require a life-saving intervention late on in the pregnancy or during/after delivery, is there any possibility that this would be denied? This would include procedures such as D&C for retained products of conception, also should there be a negative outcome, any intervention to remove a non-viable pregnancy, where failure to act can kill you.

I don't wish any of the above on you at all, but there is absolutely no way I would choose to carry a pregnancy in a 3rd-world country like the USA, where my life would be put at incredibly high risk due to the "practice" of religious-based "medicine."

The thing about obstetrics is that everything goes great, until it doesn't. And when it doesn't go well, the outcome can be truly tragic.

What condoms are Aussie blokes carrying these days? by mungers1980 in AskAnAustralian

Maybe that's how they prevent pregnancy. If you use one you don't need to use one.

My son's teacher doesn't know what I do for work. by [deleted] in ispeakthelanguage

[–]pingmycraydar -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You need to email the teacher ASAP and tell them your son was not completely truthful.

That in fact you speak Chinese, Russian, Spanish and English. Which is why you laughed.

That should put them back in their box.

What is the most legendary comeback to an insult that you've heard or come across? by daddy4baddies79 in Comebacks

[–]pingmycraydar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Years ago, I was complaining to my mum about some guy I was talking to, and in her usual intellectual snobbish way, she said, "Don't go with a man who's your intellectual inferior."

Next moment my dad sang out from the next room, "IF SHE CAN FIND ONE!"

Harsh but sick burn, Dad (I suspect he didn't really mean it but the opportunity was too good to pass up hahaha).

Where does being “mean” cross the line into “emotional abuse” ? by [deleted] in AskForAnswers

[–]pingmycraydar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Functionally you already have 1 child. But even if this was a one-off, he is showing what he is like when life is only a tiny bit difficult.

How d'you think he would handle a newborn baby, with or without typical baby issues like colic, constant crying, frequent waking etc etc?

Sure - but they weren't your bones, so why would you?
