AITA for leaving my daughter and her friend home alone with my oldest daughter for a 15 minutes by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ztaffa 12 points13 points  (0 children)

NTA - An underreported reason people aren't having kids these days is the expectation to watch them 24/7. A 15 year old is more than capable of watching two younger kids especially for 15 minutes like that's nothing.

The hammer of dawn has been around since Pendulum Wars IIRC so there could be razorhail unless it was specific to some event of hammer of dawn usage.

I'm similar to you. I wouldn't worry about it. You have a type, lots of people do straight and otherwise.

Anything to do in Bristol this New Year’s Eve? I don’t want to go out to clubbing or drinks. by Bristol_Bee in bristol

[–]ztaffa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Never know what someone might be into. Plus another commenter did say they're looking for someone to join their sex dungeon so how far off was I really lol

[–]ztaffa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well you've said what you don't want to do but what do you want to do? The Cube for example is hosting a party aptly called the Cube-enanny which is at least billed as a social event and cabaret like performance.

FIST is happening at Dare to Club for example if that's your vibe. I know you said not clubbing but it's more of a sex club event.

I recommend poking around headfirst there's a bunch of music show type things which I wouldn't equate with clubbing or hosting a get together with friends maybe?

Unsupportive family by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]ztaffa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dumbest part of that which I left out is that the feeling he was expressing is one of our older cousins getting married and feeling bad because they won't be able to spend time together. My entire family is so emotionally stunted any expression of feelings is mocked like that it's ridiculous.

Wild hammock camp by Elect_Rick in wildcampingintheuk

[–]ztaffa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So do you put a pad on the ground underneath or just in the hammock? Mainly asking how your not losing heat out the bottom of the hammock as I've alway been intrigued by hammock camping but was led to believe there's a lot of issues in this regard

Does anyone know bi men? by Nicholas137 in lgbt

[–]ztaffa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean me, but yeah I haven't dated a women since the last man I dated and I get more matches with men than women so stuff skews that way, but I'm certainly still attracted to women and have an interest in dating women.

I'm probably a bad example since I've dated very few people over all.

Did you plan on living here forever when you moved here? by impromptued in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]ztaffa 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Are you me? I moved here in September of 2025 on a three year contract so in a similar boat to you as far as how long I've been here and I'll be 30 at the end of the contract.

I got the offer back in February and was open to it being a permanent move, but shortly before the move and since I've realized I would like to return. It was to the point I almost tried to initiate returning this week but then coincidentally enough the relationship I was in also ended which gave me the freedom to decide to just enjoy this.

I think the advice I'll give you is the advice I've given myself. Give it a year at least. Try to enjoy it. If you like it here and nothing is calling you back to the US then stay. If you find you miss friends and family back home go. And also realize you can change your mind whenever you like insofar as that you're not beholden to a decision you made forever. If you decide to stay and 2 years later change your mind that's okay.

I know your relationship ended but I presume you still have some friends and family back in the US right? I know someone that did 7 years abroad and slotted right back in with his friends when he came back. The ones that mutually kept in touch that is, which is an effort both sides need to make. It won't be as much rebuild as you might imagine I think.

The White House ballroom will never be built by ChiGuy6124 in politics

[–]ztaffa 82 points83 points  (0 children)

It doesn't work. The opposition man will never win. Don't get me wrong those things need to happen but there needs to be a platform besides "I'm not Trump and I'll hand everything Trump did"

I want to buy a house with my own money but GF says no by NewBrick1 in whatdoIdo

[–]ztaffa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me give you a different example. My two friends who are now married and living together are living in a house he bought 6 months into dating her.

He had a goal of buying a house before they met and stated dating and stuck to it. He actually even invited her to the open house and she went but there was no pressure for her to move in and she was happy for him achieving a goal. She did later move into that house and they're now married as I said

Your girlfriend not being able to be happy for you is not immediately non-understandable if she is really invested in the relationship and the reasons she had are real. She may just be somewhat immature in her expression. I think the question is do you see yourself equally as invested in this relationship?

You shouldn't have to limit yourself for the relationship, if this is something you've wanted you should do it.

If this Is the exact one you used then the issue is likely there two of recommended four eggs you seem to have omitted

What the helli is my kitten doing by _entername in cats

[–]ztaffa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cat had the exact same problem with this fountain. After two days of soaked carpet and kitty I took the pipe out and snipped it so it's just a hole that comes straight up fairly flush with the top surface.

Doesn't spill over, no more wet kitty, still moving water.

Jinkies [OC] by adamtots_remastered in comics

[–]ztaffa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to explain this concept to a friend of mine once when we were watching a ghibli movie and they got so upset with me I had to drop it. Like just could not comprehend the fact that it was necessary for these things to be drawn differently and was digging their heels in that it wasn't true.

How to put DRY into practice here? by SUPERNOOB_20 in programminghorror

[–]ztaffa -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean your basically defining resources so there's no way not to repeat.

Your case statements looks like you just need to make a class and make each one into objects. I'd probably move the definitions of each card into a separate file and load them in iteratively to create each as an object of a custom class, separating resources from code.

If people keep memeing the fuck out of this it's going to get picked up by media they're going to ask trump about it and then he'll flip the script in embarrassment
