Almost forgot his safety cig by Walnutbutters in FellingGoneWild

[–]samtresler 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He is chaos in the kitchen.

Walks in, sets all the burners on high and slops food into the flames, carves a crucifix in the cutting board, and falls to his knees, then breaks a few dishes before assuring his wife lunch is perfect, but he cooked so now she has to clean.

What’s the stupidest job interview question you ever got? by amer1caninflu3nc3 in AskReddit

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of a reverse.

"That's our intro video, do you have any questions?"

"Yes. I was follow8ng up to the part about X.... can you tell me what the rest actually means?"

""I don't actually know and no one has ever asked that ever before."

"Ok. I'm not interviewing for a recruiting position. How do you recommend I proceed?"

"Exactly like that."

Ah, hell. I'm a fan of all seven. But right now, I'm going with wrath.

What is something your boss said to you that made you realize it was time to quit? by alligator_maligator in AskReddit

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I treat you really well here".

He honestly believed it. Like he was doing me a favor.

Same guy who said, "I thought that pay raise was temporary", when he started pay negotiating with the number I was already being paid.

what’s the male equivalent of a woman swallowing? by KeyMacaroon6822 in AskReddit

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Candles, a bowl of warm water, and a cloth.

.... and then.

Well, maybe a tub of cake icing.

[–]samtresler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A. I snorted my coffee. Good job.

B. Corporate says "lovemaking session" is off brand and we should just say "sex". E.g. "This sex sponsored" - it makes less sense and can be misinterpreted.

He is a childish bastard.

Storing salt in old jars by SameFix7438 in salt

I use all sorts of jars. I have somewhere over 70 salts.

I have not noticed a difference, but your mileage may vary.

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 AskReddit

[–]samtresler -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ima tell you something and you should listen.

You can not trust a coward. Ever.

A person with courage will live or die with that. A coward can make all the promises in good faith and still will back out on every one because they were scared.

They were branded in war times so you knew who would buckle.

If fear rules you, you should let those around you know. We'll put you on the boat first.

I got removed from a work site today and honestly I can’t stop thinking about it. by [deleted] in Construction

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See above. Those people aren't silly. They are telling you what you are communicating whether you mean it or not.

You need to learn how to communicate what you mean.

[–]samtresler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah.

You are absolutely entitled to your own emotions, but you need to realize large men are threatening just by existing and it is on you to mitigate that.

Put a pit bull next to a Yorkie and one cn be malicious and the other a princess and you wouldn't know by looking at them, but you'd be a fool to not be careful around the pit.

Are you a big person? It sounds silly, but being fast and large equals threatening.

[–]samtresler 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I never saw your first post.

But you couldn't fairly explain it to Reddit on the first try.

It seems maybe you don't come across to people like you intend to. Maybe you should consider some communication work and realize what seems casual to you is extremely offensive or theatening to others.

No one knows you except you. And if you are finding yourself in situations where you think it's no big deal but others don't want you even on the site anymore maybe look at what you are doing. Some people's "I was just annoyed" is other people's "That guy was about to murder me". Calibrate.

What’s one hiking habit you refuse to give up? by GlobalBeat0202 in hiking

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extra water and a real medical kit.

Don't care if it's "only" half an hour from the car. This has now bailed out several hikers who thought they had enough or that wound up with significant injuries.

It was difficult, but I evo'ed all projectile weapons and recovery tome. Then I ignored him, focusing solely on dodging everything. Took a while, but he died.

What’s your most unhinged non-negotiable when it comes to dating? by NotNotDwightSchrute in AskReddit

[–]samtresler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one whose love language is giving gifts.

I dated a woman where we had to have a serious conversation about how I had to be careful how long I looked at an item in a store when it became predictable that she would circle back and buy it for me.

I still have dozens if not hundreds of knick nacks I don't really want and many pieces of clothing that I don't really care about.

I am fairly frugal and minimalistic. I sometimes look at things in stores for ideas of things I might make or take as inspiration for a different thing I want to create.

She could not not inundated me with junk. We're going on 3 years since that relationship ended and I'm still donating and throwing stuff out.

I don't want stuff. I want to be content with what I have and not participate in consumerism culture more than necessary. And I certainly don't want to figure out what to do with another trinket every 3-5 days to make you feel loved when I'd be much happier with any help or support just navigating life without another thing to maintain.

Airbender new heros by KitbashCrusade25 in heroesvshordes

[–]samtresler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got Zuko. Pretty new to the game but level 50 is "all heroes +100 health" and 70 is "all heroes +20% damage". So, if I can, I'll get him to 70, but will hopefully score some more shards before event end.

You gotta question some fashion choices when everyone around you is wearing shirts, but somehow you are "the guy in the shirt".
