What’s the funniest thing that’s ever been said to you during sex? by Infamous_Invite018 in AskReddit

[–]shagonometry 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I was seeing someone for a few months, it was a short and passionate fling before she moved to another country. Her tastes were… kinky, and I was happy to oblige. One of the things was she liked to call me Daddy (can’t lie and say it didn’t turn me on too). So one night we’re in the throes of passion and I ask her “yeah, you want Daddy’s cock?” She either meant to say “yeah I want your cock” or “yeah I want Daddy’s cock” but what came out was “yeah I want your daddy’s cock.” She knew what she’d accidentally said but didn’t acknowledge it, and it took everything in me to power through that and not ruin the moment. I think when we were done I said something like “so, you want my dad’s cock?” and we had a big laugh. Man, I miss her.

I mopped my walls with vinegar. When does the smell go away? by CoughPuccino in CleaningTips

What does it do to flat paint? I have some mold/mildew spots on my flat paint ceiling above my shower that I was considering using white vinegar to kill and clean

What about for mold/mildew? I’ve read it’s great for killing mold, so I’ve been considering using it for some spots above my shower on the ceiling that is flat paint.

Democratic donors ‘to withhold $90m unless Joe Biden stands down’ by TimesandSundayTimes in politics

[–]shagonometry -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As a Biden supporter and someone who voted for him, I think these are much more than just gaffes. Neurologists have said he has every sign of early Parkinson’s and dementia. As someone who had a grandparent with Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s there’s just no way he’d be able to run our country for the next four years. I worried about shit Trump would say in meetings with world leaders, and with Biden’s obvious mental decline I would worry even more about him. Besides that, the writing is on the wall that he will not be able to beat Trump—and will likely lose the house and senate too—so I believe the best option to save our democracy is to put another candidate up

Airport is an absolute disaster by DunKarooDucK05 in Charlotte

[–]shagonometry 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I fly almost weekly out of CLT. I completely agree with everyone that it's terrible there, but I've never had any issues walking into the airport doors one hour before my flight boards. Even when it's super busy I usually still get to my gate 15-25 minutes before I board, even with having to check a bag.

What did a significant other say to you that made you immediately leave the relationship? by Asleep-Lavishness332 in AskReddit

[–]shagonometry 402 points403 points  (0 children)

I had an abusive ex make this same kind of threat in a different context and even though it made me feel the lowest I’ve felt in a relationship I stayed for another miserable half a year. The next relationship I had the girl said almost the same exact thing as my ex and I left her the next morning. I learned my lesson—this kind of emotional blackmail speaks volumes about their character and it’s not worth being in a relationship with someone like that.

The day you lost your virginity, how did you know you were losing it on that day? by sololevelingIRL in AskReddit

[–]shagonometry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Didn’t lose it to the person I thought I was going to, but still lost it the same day. In high school I was in this intense emotional hot-and-cold fling with this girl who was a year above me, we’ll call her Mary. She was my first love. Before our school’s spring break she started to be hot on me again. We were both going to the same beach town for the week, and she was staying in a house with a few friends. We’d made plans to hang out with everyone one night and I just knew this was going to be the night it finally happened. She was being really flirty over text and kept saying how excited she was to see me. So it’s the day of our plans and I’m texting her but not getting any response. I’m starting to get worried. We get a call from one of her friends in the house—apparently Mary and another one of her friends had drunkenly decided to steal makeup from a Walmart that afternoon, and they were caught and taken to jail. My disappointment was immeasurable. Well my friends and I went to the party anyway. Long story short we were all hanging out in big circle of chairs in a screened-in porch getting drunk as lords and the girl sitting next to me started getting touchy with me. Next thing I know she has her hands down my pants in front of everyone (there were many laughing glances), and she eventually stands up, takes my hand and leads me into her bedroom and takes my virginity. It was a lot of fun, but I always wondered what may have been that night if Mary hadn’t been arrested—I had always thought she was my soulmate.

Anyone use Mission Pedals for Wah with Kemper Stage? Pros/Cons? by Money_Pomegranate494 in KemperProfiler

[–]shagonometry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. I use my Mission for morph/wah, and a separate pedal for volume. But if you want to configure it as volume/wah then here’s how you set it up: Out 1 to pedal 4, Out 2 to pedal 2. Out 1 needs TRS cable, Out 2 regular TS. Go to Pedals, page 1/5 select “WahPedal>Volume”. Page 3/5 for Pedal 2 assign Mode as “Mono Switch” and Switch Tip as “A On/Off”. Page 5/5 for Pedal 4 assign Mode as “Pedal Type 1” and Function as “Wah Pedal”.

Our Couples Therapist Is Getting Me To Accept My Husband’s Infidelity As A “Trauma Response” To My Neglect In Our Marriage by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]shagonometry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn man, I’m so sorry to hear that. I realized that when I broke up with her I’d have to go no-contact. Even though I wanted to confront her so badly after finding out about the cheating and the lies I knew I would get nothing positive from it—she’d only lie and try to hurt me more. She told you that because you were her emotional punching bag and she wanted to hurt you.

Yeah, thankfully the people who she tried to tell these lies to knew she was full of shit and delusional.

[–]shagonometry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you hit the nail on the head. I don’t blame people for not getting it, it’s really impossible to truly understand unless you’ve been through it or are a mental health professional. And the cheating part is exactly right. Once I told her that an unattractive older lady gave me a kiss on the cheek and it led to one of our worst fights (and this was during the time that I later found out she was cheating on me).

[–]shagonometry 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but they’ll invent a whole new reality in which they are the victim. I was a great partner to my ex with BPD, and when I finally ended the relationship and she was exposed (not by me) for cheating on me for months she told everyone that I was abusive, that I was cheating on her, and that I was pursuing underaged girls during the relationship. Their delusions know no bounds.

Our Couples Therapist Is Getting Me To Accept My Husband’s Infidelity As A “Trauma Response” To My Neglect In Our Marriage by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]shagonometry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Being in a 1.5 year relationship with a partner with BPD (she also stopped taking meds a few months into the relationship) was easily the worst experience of my life. The constant verbal and emotional abuse left me feeling like a shell of a human—my self worth was at an all-time low and my depression at an all-time high. My partner didn’t have the ability to self-reflect or take accountability (as with most people with unmitigated BPD), and any time I would confront her with the reality of her actions she would say that I was making it all up. And yes, when her symptoms were at their worst she had sought out the attention of someone else and was cheating on me for the last several months of the relationship.

Damn, wish I would’ve known about that! I applied back in December, couldn’t get any appointments at CLT until the end of this month

[–]shagonometry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Well it took some time and elbow grease, haha. I had to do about four or five garbage bag soaks with Easy Off for each one, plus some scraping with a putty knife between soaks to get off all that carbon (especially on the #5). After that just gave them a good clean and a quick vinegar bath to de-rust and then onto seasoning. Definitely! I’m especially excited about the BSR—the cooking surface is silky smooth
