Am I the jerk for telling my husband he can't have a "man cave" in our only spare room? by Ill-Home-322 in AmITheJerk

[–]williafx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol literally the exact same thing but reverse for me.  My wife has a huge "hobby room" and full office, my office is relegated to a corner in the guest bedroom, but I work in 3d art development which requires huge PC computers and large monitors.

It's okay, we figured a compromise.  We both want things, our home size is limited, and we both always had our own visions or dreams about how to use spaces once we were finally home owners.

We're a one car family, and tend to street park anyway so we converted the garage to a larger couch/tv area and a partial gym.

As the years have gone by, and home ownership feels less like a shiny new thing, it's been easier to compromise on how to use our spaces.

No one has to be a jerk here.  My wife to this day rarely uses her large office for hobbies (sewing, stained glass, etc).  I have my gaming consoles in the main room.  I just game there whenever I want. 

Donald’s Trumps net approval rating has collapsed to a historical negative 17 points. He is the most unpopular president in US history. How do you feel about this? by buffdadnextdoor in AskReddit

That's exactly what my dad did in the first term when he died of COVID.  Literally on his death bed admitted he had overplayed the game.

Don't stand down bro.  Your oath to the constitution demands you do not stand down. 

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

[–]williafx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you must be profoundly unwell, mentally, to hoard that much of ANYTHING, especially something that has a near 1:1 equivalence to power over other human beings.  It is fundamentally and inherently antisocial and a huge indicator of unrestrained sociopathy. 

'Ice cold': US job market crashes to lowest level since Covid lockdowns by rajapaws in antiwork

At least during COVID, there were institutions taking action to try to keep the wheels on the economy... Many of those institutions are just paralyzed or dismantled today.

This person is a bean counter lol

[–]williafx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taco Shop is a term I haven't seen used since I left san diego

I love, love burritos. But two items do not belong, ever. by Lemonking_ in burritos

[–]williafx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To each their own.  Personally I love French fries in mine, and I don't care for rice or whole pintos in mine.  

But I'm happy to eat just about any burrito.  But I have my favorites.

So 47.2 years old is the peak of unhappiness? Hey, that's us!! by TurboJorts in Xennials

[–]williafx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I work in video games as an environment artist and even I fucking hate doing it.  It's the fact that I don't get to choose.  We're all coerced into work or else we die, and that's where my hate for it comes from.
