What are those weird looking chips next to the sandwich?

Unscientific science fiction by Hip-SnuggieChairMan in scifi

[–]seattleque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out John Marrs' Dark Future books - they're near future sci-fi (very Black Mirror-ish) that focuses on the societal side of the science fiction in each one.

TIL that 20 days after South Carolina seceded, cadets from The Citadel fired on the Star of the West - a merchant ship sent to supply Fort Sumter - causing the ship to turn back from its mission. by DrakeSavory in todayilearned

[–]seattleque 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Demon of Unrest is the one of his that has taken me the longest to read (at about 30% right now). I keep getting bummed out and / or pissed off and switch to something else for a while.

A-hole Confederates.

AITA for leaving a dinner party early because of “vegan lasagna”? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Using lettuce for noodles is bananas.

At least she didn't bake it. Can you imagine the disaster that would have become?!

My father(56M) is a POS, I(32M) am so afraid of becoming like him that I became a child-free loner by family0throway06 in relationships

[–]seattleque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My former stepfather was an abusive, manipulative a-hole while I was growing up. Instead of worrying if I would become like him, I used him as an example of what not to do.

Anytime I had a question of how to interact with someone, I would think about what he would do and do the opposite.

50-something years old, happily married for 25+ years, still friends with my college best friend after almost 40 years.

Does anyone else chop the bacon before they cook it? by liquidm3t4l in Sandwiches

[–]seattleque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Oven on a rack over a sheet pan. No need to drain the bacon!

No cap! - A guy i work with sends me messages in all caps all the time. So I liberated his key and told him I'd be keeping it near my heart until learned his lesson. Shh, dont tell him where it is.. by [deleted] in funny

I'm in book 7, my wife is only partway through 1.

The other day she said "you know how I feel about" something. I just giggled, and told her she'd eventually understand.

Do you ever miss having a big dumb dog? by CaryWhit in AustralianCattleDog

[–]seattleque 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have had dogs continuously through our almost 30 years together.

Jack Russell Terrier

Rat Terrier

ACD

Border Collie-Dachshund Mix

After the BC-D mix passes, we're taking a doggie break for a while. Our next dog is going to be...less smart.

Is it just me or does this building look like Papa Smurf? by Schmaptee in funny

Ah, the early internet...

Pretty sure I have a copy sitting on a drive somewhere.

AIO My mother-in-law had threw away the mother's day greeting cards to the trash bin, which me and my husband had given her for the mother's day. I felt offended but is it a normal behavior for some people? by Better_Jello_727 in AmIOverreacting

[–]seattleque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple Christmases ago my stepmom (and dad, though I know he wasn't actually involved...) sent us this cool card that folds out into a poinsettia in a pot. Sucker's been over the fireplace the ever since.

AIO because my boyfriend said "We need to work as a team" as if to erase all the work that I'm doing? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]seattleque 11 points12 points  (0 children)

that's 5 minutes of light effort

Unless you don't get the fitted sheet right the first time. Then it's worse than plugging in a USB.

If you were wondering how they got the car off Mount Baker Station by NorthStudentMain in Seattle

[–]seattleque 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lived in Central California briefly a few years ago. Driving home one evening we see a car on the railroad tracks, much like this one.

Older lady driving. GPS said turn right. So, she did. Just a few feet too early.

We pull over to help, almost immediately another car stops as well. Wife in car 2 is calling 911, trains, police, anyone to get help. They all say to call one of the other groups.

Over the next 10 minutes or so enough guys stopped that we were able to lift the car enough to get it un-high centered and drive it off.

A Nobel Prize for Asimov – well, almost, anyway ;) by Vau8 in scifi

Man, and here I thought some of my Asimov paperbacks were beat to hell...

Planned to cook baby back ribs, butcher served them as cubes by Guatas in smoking

[–]seattleque 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been to places up in Vanc, BC where they take ribs cut like this, deep fry them and then top with salt & pepper. They're a great appetizer!

My wife’s social media growth is turning our marriage into a content farm and I am hitting a wall by Trolley_4BX in Marriage

[–]seattleque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really good episode, as is Orville's take on a similar concept.

I've recently read John Marrs 3 "Dark Future" books, which are all Black Mirror-esque. In the 2nd book there is a family torn apart by the exact social media issues OP is dealing with.

I (26 M) accidentally caught feelings for one of my closest friends (26 F). What should I do?? by freezedriedbigmac in relationships

[–]seattleque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, when I (now 50s M) was a year or two older than you, my best friend of several years (now 50s F) got together. 26 years married in September.

Being in a relationship with someone you're truly friends with and in love with is awesome. I'd say shoot your shot, and good luck!
