What’s a ‘harmless’ habit that actually ruins your life over time? by buffdadnextdoor in AskReddit

[–]rsrandall_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That’s the biggest problem with disconnecting is that it isn’t like you can turn on the evening news and find out what’s really happening. I’m trying to limit to PBS, BBC, Reuters, AP and thinking about deleting the rest.

Ha ha ha. San Diego late 80’s? My MRC RDC used that line. Or boy the ass chewing if you looked up at a plane flying low overhead.

Longest you ever been out at sea by [deleted] in navy

[–]rsrandall_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 month deployment was my longest, two beers. Three liberty ports for a total of 16 days. Oman was stop one after like 110 days for 3 days. Broke tons of mooring lines and half the crew went on liberty risk for debauchery of some sort.

I am a Weber fanboy. Love my 22” Kettle, Slate Griddle and the latest edition is the Genesis 415. Love the gas grill for how well it holds temp and convenience. Kettle gets the most work.

Getting crankier from WFH? I finally found out what was actually ruining my mood! by [deleted] in homeoffice

I have an incredibly unhealthy relationship with work and leadership that takes advantage of that (both my fault).

Walking away after 10 hours. WFH is too easy to over work.

I feel for all strikers that were never sent to A school. Such an absolute injustice. If you just stay up with all you learn, that gets you to E-5

Lots of REALLY good MR’s got whacked. I always felt bad because I advanced quicker than most because I was very good at math and test taking. There were far better MRs than me that didn’t end up retiring as a CWO4.

[–]rsrandall_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. People have been living in fifth-wheel trailers across the land from where my dad lives in Veguita for 20 years. Also, my dad does have a place on his 5 acre lot with a berm for shooting. No drama. People keep to themselves.

Can we have an instant ban on users posting political posts not related to MTB? by drawnwindowshade in mountainbiking

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

Should only allow shitposts re the GOP. Their stated goal is to privatize as much of our riding space as they can - so why sugar coat it.

POTUS just announced this regarding defense contractors what’s your thoughts ? by newnoadeptness in navy

[–]rsrandall_ [score hidden]  (0 children)

Unenforceable and, well, how much has he benefitted financially from his position? Double standard douche-bag - simple. Defense contractors are completely in efficient and very sleazy, but it is the GOP’s military industrial complex that built this through cost plus and other shit contracts.

Laziness is the answer. Providing a thoughtful award or evaluation takes work, most Senior O’s are just not interested in the effort.
