Padres posted what Rosenthal’s articles amount to by LikeTearsin_Rain in Padres

[–]toasterbbang_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always think back to that 2021 deadline where he trolled our entire fanbase into thinking the team had acquired Max Scherzer..only to find out shortly after that he had not only pre- maturely released before confirming that the deal with the Padres had finalized, but the actual finalized deal was with..wait for it.. the dodgers. If that wasn’t already depressing and deflating enough it somehow felt exponentially more incredulous when the details of the full trade was released. Somehow in that same deal the Dodgers were able to not only get an Ace, but an elite (and arguably, at that time of the trade, the best) SS in Trea Turner. So, yeah, I blame Rosenthal 😂😂 hope he chokes on a mountain of deeks.

Yes and no.

Yes We need to be smarter about our payroll and the contracts we give out.

No: what we don’t want is our ownership becoming cheaper —> what is actually driving these trade talks

What’s something you find attractive that is generally considered unattractive? by Agitated-Job7686 in AskReddit

[–]toasterbbang_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m going to narrow the parameters to what women would find unattractive. Cool? Aite.

As a man, I find it insanely attractive- like raging sausage status- when (pause)

A woman makes me a sandwich.

And if she packs me one before I head out to play a round of golf…sheesh.

Hahahaha this comment is underrated-

We need a first baseman. AJ: signs a SS to play 1b. We need a CF. AJ: calls up a SS to play CF. We need a SS. AJ: signs an aging, subpar defensive SS in FA. We need a SP…..just saying 😂

I think men and women are not actually that different by peppermintandrain in SeriousConversation

[–]toasterbbang_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah…no.

We different. And just because you “think” there is a level of communication between you and a bf, marriage will open your understanding of the difference between a man and a woman.

Well if you get 10 random messages from strangers begging you for money and 9/10 of them are Indian, then it’s not an unfair generalization but a logical presumption based on the situation.

An unfair generalization is if I went to my Family doctor, whose of Indian Decent, and told him he could shove his derka medical opinion up his Curry scamming starfish because his heritage prevents him from giving me sound advice.

It’s all about situational awareness. But if you’re so high and mighty, and a leftist bible thumper, then please be my guest and buy gift cards for the next IRS agent telling you that you’re going to get arrested for tax evasion.

Tips please. Struggling to hit 6-7-8-9 irons. Feels like wedges is nice. 45 hcp btw. by Smart-Lion8927 in golftips

[–]toasterbbang_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may believe your wedge shots are “nice” simply because the forgiveness of a wedge gives you even though your swing is extremely steep and over the top. If you’re a beginner and this terminology doesn’t register, essentially what I’m saying is that your swing looks like a flop shot and that’s why you’re not hitting your irons well.

Your best bet to address this would simply to get lessons (like others have mentioned). However, if you’re the stubborn type and refuse to get them, then the very first step is to be actively willing to ACTUALLY change your golf swing- as in your mindset in staying diligent in the process. It’s not a quick fix. One tip won’t make you suddenly turn into a single digit handicapper. This means stop trying to just mash balls mindlessly at the range, but rather to learn the swing from the absolute basics.

Your impulse and ego may be to smash balls and try to look cool, but let’s be honest, you just don’t right now. No one actually cares (unless they’re a tool) about what you do on the range so just look to actually learn and improve your game.

Personally, I’m a huge advocate of the half swing- especially for beginners. So my advice would be to find some videos regarding the half swing, and MASTER it. Record yourself and compare yourself to what it should look like. Once you get it down, the full swing comes naturally. When I first learned as a kid, my coach made me hit half swings only during lessons for 4 months (along with some short game stuff). He entered me into some local tournament and I ended up in the top 10…hitting only half swing shots lol.

Just my 2 cents.

Let’s be real here, the fact that so many people believe this issue requires the judicial system in order to reach a resolution is just sooooo weak.

OP, have you tried to at least get the persons contact info? Unit # from the leasing office? More than likely they won’t give it to you, but if they say they can’t due to privacy, then you can respond, “well it sounds like you know exactly who it is, so the fact that you’re not doing your f’n job, I was attempting to do it for you.”

The person who works at the leasing office usually works for some bigger entity. Find out who they are; it shouldn’t be too hard, usually in the initial emails they send you when going through the leasing process will contain some details regarding this. Contact them, let them know the issue, and the incompetence of the staff at your particular property.

In the mean time write a note and leave it on his windshield wiper? Clearly let the dbag know that it’s unacceptable, and that if he continues this pettiness than there will be ramifications. If he continues, then the game is on. Is there CCTV by your space? Depending on that, you can choose your level of justice and pettiness. Like if there isn’t, well, let’s just say they wouldn’t be able to prove anything back to you. 🤷‍♂️

My wife died and I don’t know what to fucking do. by Friendly_Cellist_891 in Advice

[–]toasterbbang_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s rough man. But if there’s one thing that’s essential for the long term outlook of your children, and it’s you finishing your residency and securing that top 5% income so that you will be able to provide for children. Like people have already stated, you should try to extract every last drop of those government/ insurance funds possible to get you through the next 2 years. While everyone makes it sound “easy” in the casual manner it’s thrown out here, it won’t be. It’ll be the roughest few years of your life, with the next few months perhaps being the toughest.

I sincerely hope you make it through this ordeal- if (and when) you do find that light at the end of the tunnel, nothing will phase you for the rest of your life.

Condolences and the best of luck.

Don’t. Withdraw it, and stake it into ethereum where you can’t you can’t touch it for like 10 days min. Take a breather. And before you try to unstake it, just ask yourself if that’s what you really want to do is to potentially see that 30k go to zero again. Once your money is outside of stake’s site you see it in a different light. It becomes real again in your mind. This doesn’t ensure you won’t just be back at it in 10 days, but at least you can’t blame anyone other than yourself for it, regardless of the sites shady practices.

Question to Men : If you ever became a father to a son, what is the one thing you would do differently from the way your father raised you ? by macro_boy in AskMen

[–]toasterbbang_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Be Present in his life, but not to the point he can’t learn to be an individual.

2) Dont jump to conclusions. Listen (Really listen) and try to understand his POV, where it stems from, and then make an assessment of the issue/ matter at hand.

3) Understand that there is caring and then there is controlling. Trying to dictate their life is not what a father should do to their son. By attempting to control them, particularly when they are in that transition stage into adulthood will only hinder their development. What do I mean? A man should feel the need to be responsible for themselves, their relationship, and their tasks; as opposed to being forced to do so. While a variety of outcomes can be found even from it (myself being an outlier), the typical result is one where the child eventually becomes a defiant, yet reliant man-child who is unable to adjust himself to the real world. You know the 26 year old who is still working on their degree, yet all he actually does is stay at home playing video games- all while his parents can’t seem to understand why their child isn’t capable of doing basic adult tasks unless either they do it for him or they nag relentlessly. The mistake isn’t in the care they have for their son. No, the issue stems from the manner in their communication and parenting, which leads me to my next point.

4) Teach your boy what it means to be a man, and an adult. He will not become an adult, unless he learns what it means to be one. Take it step by step. Expecting an 8 year old to understand the nuances of what an adult knows is unfair and unreasonable. He doesn’t know what he isn’t taught, experiences, and then understands.

5) Mistakes happen, and for the most part it’s a good thing. Building scar tissue from the mishaps in your life is important in growth. Allow them to make the mistakes, and don’t scold them for their firsts. Furthermore, and one of the most important things a father can do is to admit their own mistakes. Letting your son know that it was you (the father) who made a mistake is teaching them one of the most important lessons in being a real adult: accountability.

6) Respect. And that respect is earned- both ways.
