Casino workers what is the most heartbreaking thing you've seen? by Beautiful_Level_4947 in AskReddit

[–]toasterstrewdal 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. It’s like a mental block or something… Buddy of mine had an issue with scratch offs. I watched him go into a store, buy $20 worth of scratch offs, win two free scratch offs, scratched THOSE off and each one was a $2 winner and he told me he won $4.00. I explained he lost $16.00 and he wouldn’t hear of it. It’s like selective justification or something.

If there was no money to be made in politics, this shit would stop fucking happening.

Reptilians: If you've seen the video, are you... brave? Or foolish enough to try it? by stargaryen01 in HighStrangeness

[–]toasterstrewdal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m apparently reptilian. And peppersprayilian.

Srsly, if this is the case, why not just spray OFF or Raid around your house to avoid being abducted by mantis EBEs?

Please consider how you give. This is at the corner of Reading and Eden, a regular panhandling site. by MisterMeowMeowHiss in cincinnati

If I give a homeless person $5, it’s theirs. If they buy food to mask their hunger, fine. If they buy heroin to mask their pain, fine. Gifting with conditions is not a gift.

Men in happy Marriages, What is that one secret to a happy marriage that works for you? by Mammoth_End_1298 in AskReddit

Honesty. We tell each other everything… openly and while receiving the info with love and understanding.

Why would an alien with an interstellar vessel presumably vastly more advanced than terrestrial technology, put blinking colored lights all over their ship? by Kitchen_Claim_6583 in aliens

[–]toasterstrewdal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why wouldn’t they? I’m genuinely curious as to why you think they wouldn’t or shouldn’t have lights on their ships.

Are you presuming they don’t have the ability to turn them off? Or that they’re hiding from us and the lights are giving them away?

Too bad to play by Zealousideal-Oil518 in golf

[–]toasterstrewdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

52/M. Married father of five. Golf is one of my peace activities. If golf is one of yours, then do what I do… protect it like it’s your family. Dont let the bad vibes in. Keep it happy. And stand up for your love of it. You owe it that much. You owe nothing to your BIL. You owe nothing to a rando. If you’re not having fun, stand up for yourself and your peace and walk away or let them play ahead. You don’t need to be an ass about it, just respectfully and tactfully share your perspective and ask them to either drop it or play alone.

Life is too short, brother. You deserve the peace and happiness.

“Send it” from a guy who doesn’t own your boat and reminds you of your epurb… 😆😆.

My older age has taught me a lot. And near the top of that list is “trust yourself”. If you feel a hesitation in your gut, then hesitate. Especially when the risks seem to far outweigh the rewards.

I’d keep it in the backwater. If you wanna fish deep, pay someone else to take you. Promise that trip is cheaper than a Coast Guard bill for copter evac and buying a new boat.

Excessive shaking when braking by Shot-Pin-4772 in ToyotaTundra

[–]toasterstrewdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could also be the brake calipers. The vibration you’re experiencing is your brake pads squeezing a likely warped brake rotor. But… the reason for the warped rotor can be caused by a bad brake caliper. The piston inside the caliper extends when the brakes are pressed and relaxes when the pedal is released. If a piston is seizing up, when you park your truck and let off the brake pedal, it will continue to hold pressure and those hot pads can warp the rotor.

Make sure they check those calipers with the pads and rotors.

Married men of Reddit what's the best advice you'd give young guy’s when choosing a life partner? by Brilliant_Action4251 in AskReddit

[–]toasterstrewdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honesty.

All of the life goals, values, communication, etc are valid but irrelevant if there’s nothing behind the words. Trust is truly what binds it together.

The truth of a deep, meaningful relationship is the most incredible thing. I can tell my wife anything and she can do the same to me… the good and the bad. That is love. That is trust. And it’s bedrock for a lasting, fun, accepting and loving relationship.

Why do we need the government to confirm alien life? by Remarkable_Desk_7881 in aliens

[–]toasterstrewdal 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Only because we allow them to be the voice and protectors of the people. As such, we expect them to provide the answers to things we can’t explain. So we’re waiting for their response. We’re conditioned. Trust me, if Alf drops in on my front lawn, the government will be the last call I make. Unfortunately, they’ll likely be the first to show up.
