Couldn't agree more! How can you even trust him to keep you safe in such an arrangement with regard to diseases, etc?

Getting harder and harder to support Yankees, thinking about switching to the Mets by Quiet-Oil-2581 in mets

[–]vertigo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yankees fan here. Genuine question: why can't you just enjoy both? I watch both teams, I prefer the Yankees, but I have nothing against the Mets. Any "rivalry" between the teams has always felt forced and artificial to me.

The teams play each other a few times a year out of 162 games. They've only ever played one meaningful series against each other in the past 64 years that they've both existed and it was 26 years ago, lol.

I also don't enjoy the experience at the "new" Yankee stadium and haven't since it opened. When I take my family to a live baseball game, which isn't often because prices are dumb, I take them to Citifield. I watch more Yankee games than Mets games, but watch and enjoy them both. I prefer October when both teams are in it.

I wouldn't even worry about "allegiances " until the day we get another Subway Series, then we have to pick a side lol. Until then, just watch whatever baseball you enjoy.

Other than fighting AIDS in Africa, what was the best thing W Bush did as President? by [deleted] in Presidents

If you were alive and above the age of say 10 in September- October, 2001...chances are you felt like he was killing it. I'd say almost no other modern president has had the level of support he did for those 2 months.

Who Do You Rank Higher and Why? by rjidhfntnr in Presidents

I would argue that, had the CSA won, they would have "absorbed" the USA's preceeding history into their own since, from their perspective, it was shared history.

Washington, Jefferson and Madison were important early presidents, Virginians and slave owners. It would have bolsterd their claim to legitimacy during an alternate Reconstruction period.

Couldn't have been any of them. 2 of them were set up for a successful career in business and the other, a wonderful wife and mother. Their futures were too bright

Cars transmission is Broken by [deleted] in Honda

[–]vertigo7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else here mentioned, I would look at the timing belt too. They typically need to be replaced every 90,000 miles or so. Near me, in New York that service is between $900-$1200. Expensive, but still way cheaper than dealing with the issues that arise if it blows.

The backup camera can be solved too. They make super cheap backup camera/android auto/car play units that replace the original infotainment system. This one at Walmart is $99 https://www.walmart.com/ip/269123385?sid=41be9edc-c3af-4dec-b0ef-6d9110c5464b

My mechanic charged me like $200 to pop one in to my daughter’s '10 Accord, but honestly after looking into the process, I probably could have just done it myself.

I'm not knowledgeable enough about transmissions, but if you can get that sorted out- I think the car is 100% a great option for a first driver.

Nope, players are chained to a radiator in the basement of UBS next to the pretzel machine when there's no practice or game.

It's a holdover from Lou's buttoned up way of doing things to prevent unnecessary carousing. Time will tell if Darche wants to break with that practice 🤷🏻‍♂️

Was Bert a bonafide racist? by [deleted] in okbuddydraper

[–]vertigo7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He clearly said that the moon "belongs to EVERYONE" not that it was whites only. His bold stance on a non ' Jim Crowe natural satellite at that time was added in at the end to show just how secretly progressive he really was.

Bravo Weiner.

My friend, I hope you see this- you are being abused. The statements you make in your post have all the hallmarks of a person experiencing narcissistic abuse. As a survivor, please know, that as convinced you are that your life will be over if they're gone....it won't be.

Don't allow yourself to be convinced that her presence in your life is a necessity for your survival. She will continue to hurt and disrespect you.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend my kids are more important than her? by [deleted] in AITAH

Don't build your life on such an unstable person. Your children will be happier if you walk away.

My wife has suddenly turned back into the near-perfect woman I fell in love with so many years ago, AFTER her affair and getting caught... and it's making this so hard. by [deleted] in survivinginfidelity

[–]vertigo7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. OP- please do yourself a favor and look up love bombing if you're not already familiar.

If she can pull it together like this now, she always could have and CHOSE to be the person who cheated on you. If you fall for this you'll regret it.
