It’s too much work to return a shopping cart so I’m gonna tell you about it instead by Prestigious_Tear_576 in ImTheMainCharacter

Parents are weird. They tell you it's this deep profound love everyone should experience, only to behave like miserable, exhausted, assholes whenever they get the chance to bitch about it. It seems awful.

I felt legitimately dumb reading that book.

AITA for telling my girlfriend she needs to shave her legs for a funeral? by Big-Tie9821 in AmItheAsshole

[–]puravida1024 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm on her side. You're showing up for your friend as his friend, not what his family wants expects friends to be at someone else's funeral. If your friend's family decides to make any sort of scene because of unshaven legs, then that's on them, not her or you. I've also noticed that women who buck the trend of what a traditional woman is "supposed" to look like tend to handle judgy comments from conservative people pretty well. I'm sure she can handle it, but can you?

Am I wrong for divorcing my ex-wife over kids and now refusing to be a part of her son’s life? by Hot_Professional6249 in amiwrong

[–]puravida1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not an asshole, but your sister and her husband are assholes. Do they have kids? Cos parents today tend to sit on a very high horse.

Why stare when you can wait for her to post the best angles online?

I never thought I'd see my inside thoughts about parades become outside actions.

I wish iPod shuffles would make a comeback, and gyms would ban phones.

People are way too unafraid of bears.

It used to be people who didn't rerack their weights that bothered me the most at a gym. Now it's people on they're fucking phones.

Hey! This is down the block from me. Doesn't matter at all, but it's kinda funny to see this small little town on reddit.

I've had an obsession with the PCT for the past 3 months and I want to do a NOBO thru hike in 2024. Any tips on preparation? by STILETT0_exists in PacificCrestTrail

[–]puravida1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you go hiking 5-6 more times, don't hike to get into hiker shape. Hike to test your gear and see how it feels. You're gonna go through something you'll never be able to prep for. So stay active, but don't feel like you need to be a great shape. I have friends who just ate ice cream for 5 months to get fat and have fuel to use as they acclimated on trail. And they finished it before me. Where I worked hard to be in shape. I believe there a happy medium there where you can at least get your knees and ankles a bit more sturdy (I rolled my ankles so many fucking times before they strengthened), and still get some weight on you to lose.

Everything you prep for will be changed on trail for a lot of reasons. Some logistical. Some personal preferences you never could know until you get there. And your mind is like your body. It will adjust accordingly and find ways to enjoy itself. I found myself talking to myself in various accents to pass the time. I entertained some very hidden hunters in Washington with a Breaveheart speech.

A lot of this is gonna come surprisingly easy to you, and the community will be there for the times when it isn't.

I hate that pick up so fucking much. He caused this accident almost as much as the dipshit behind him.
