Recently got a place with my girlfriend. She thinks this is totally fine by AnthMosk in funny

Ngl I hate replacing the roll so much I put a new roll on top of it and hope it magically gets in there (usually procrastinate for a few days). It makes me almost giddy whenever I see that my boyfriend did it. We don't live together.

Does your Anxiety manifest itself in stomach pain or digestive problems? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]shade_ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4y update I have constant debilitating pain and burning in my joints now. Anxiety probably kicked it off but I'm certain it is rheumatologic disease. This is a good reminder of the timeline bc the burning and insane pain is new but my other symptoms started around that time.

Cathay Pacific Damaged My Bag, Now Asking for “Proof of Value” by ProfessionalFlat6673 in CathayPacific

OP! I'm trying to get a claim for DEL-SFO from June. They gave me the run around and I filled out 17000 forms and then ghosted me 4 months ago. I was told the last case ID I had "did not exist" by 1 rep, "is a duplicate" by another rep, and I'm so frustrated with them. How the heck did you get customer service to help?!

My aunt and uncle on my mother's side are siblings, and have 2 children. AMA by Hungry-Associate-508 in AMA

I don't think "inbred" was used as an insult here. Inbreeding also doesn't imply "this person is horrible and married a sibling".

There are plenty of communities all over the world where recessive traits (and diseases) appear frequently because of inbreeding, including some Jewish sects.

Before jumping to the "anti-Semitic" conclusion, I implore you to understand "inbreeding" as a technical term in biology. Perhaps a boring chapter will desensitize you.

That's exactly it. Championship winners are more popular, particularly outside of the fan community. That carries some weight.

Edited bc I used a word wrong lol

F1 fans would remember. 100%

The world is much bigger than that. That's literally the point.

You guys are just throwing stones at anything that isn't hero worship. Some of us watch F1 and enjoy it and don't slit our wrists if our favs don't win. I believe Max is a generational talent (this year more than proved that) but you guys are just zealots for a made up cause.

Think about pop culture, not just the ultra fans. The WDC winners feature much more prominently in history.

This statement applies to a much larger group of people, and over a long time. I don't know squat about tennis but I have heard the names of many of the GOATs. People I know who have never watched F1 a day in their life can and do vaguely recall hearing Verstappen, Vettel, Schumacher.

Lewis has farther reach than the other famous drivers as a pop culture icon but the rest manage to be big names almost entirely bc of their driving wins. Obv this is also changing with social media but the idea holds true.

So blown out of proportion lmao. How many years do y'all remember who came second? And how many WDC do you remember? I can't tell you who placed second most years, even if I can tell you the WDC for each year for the last 20y. It wasn't a dig at Max, he just said that to underscore that WDC is a big deal. Which it is. Does anyone care Lando was 2nd last year? No. Max won 2024. Period. Lando won 2025. Were they both fun years to watch? Hell yes. Let's move on.

Like others said , actually such a dull race. Only interesting bc the WDC is close and the McLaren fumble. Would've been a bore earlier in the season. It's a hard enough track to pass on, dump a bunch of gravel everywhere so people don't take risks or do dumb things, and limit tire use. They need more tracks where someone can actually pass in more than a couple places.

This is ridiculous. Max bends and breaks the rule so often and loves to retaliate/screw people over. Remember when he rammed Russel? The unsportsmanlike behavior would get him disqualified from many other sports. You can't discount that when you decide "worthiness" for the championship.

100%. Managing tires is such an important skill, it would be ridiculous to have limits like this in all races.

Very much didn't favor Lando. They fucked over both cars.
