Being in an open marriage, I can confirm that having an affair is just fun. Short lived but drug like in intensity, and makes you feel younger and sexier. I wouldn’t put my marriage on the line for it, but then again I don’t have to, so I feel like I shouldn’t judge.

It’s always been a universal idea that the world, or society in general, will collapse soon because of our evil nature and intent.

Not remotely close to how your average US public education experience will go.

What’s your opinion on all these people obviously using ChatGPT to answer questions?

It’s all about finding the right balance between being honest and tactful. Be clear about what you can and can’t offer, and try to be as understanding as possible. It’s always best to be honest and open, but if you phrase it in the right way, it should help soften the blow.

Americans who are FOR the Bident student loan forgiveness, why?
Because it’s a predatory loan. If you get a loan to buy a car – and then don’t pay the loan – they take the car. There was a collateral value to the loan.

For those of you with hidden cameras at home, what’s the wildest thing you’ve seen?
VERY tame, but I’d gone on my first long term trip after getting my cat and had to get a cat sitter. I’d also just bought a nice big standing mirror.

Ignore every zombie film. How would a real zombie apocalypse start?
It’d have to be magical or unstoppably airborn. Zombies are human but shittier in every way, a real zombie outbreak would be over in a week at most because zombies wouldn’t be eating or drinking and they’d dry out or just run out of fuel.

Lack of accountability at Apple
I’m massively annoyed by the lack of accountability. After an in-app purchase didn’t work, the vendor recommended that I’d get in touch with Apple for a refund.

You’re not getting a reason as to why… Continue reading Lack of accountability at Apple

What’s considered worse ghosting a best friend or partner?

Humans. All this intelligence, all this ability to philosophize, and yet when we scream out to the universe for answers, we get nothing.

What is the most frustrating thing you’ve heard a boomer say about why millennials are too lazy to afford a home?
I haven’t, actually.

If they’re happy and not bothering people, let them be. But I will say, not enough variety from what I’ve seen. I’ve seen irl and online so many who are wolves and foxes. Seems like you’d want to be unique and go with an animal that’s not seemingly vastly over used.

What’s a movie (other than The Room) or TV series you recommend to people because of just how poorly executed it was?
Beyond The Black Rainbow. It has one of my favorite critical reviews I’ve ever read: The movie looks like it was lit by lava lamps, scored on Moog synthesizers, written between bong hits and acted underwater. None of this is meant as praise.

Typically within the music industry why is there a lot of female singers but barely/rarely any female record producers (women who actually compose the songs) Why do you believe this is?

While the pasta cooks you can just make real cabonara sauce, i.e. fry guancale or bacon or whatever and mix eggs with cheese. So you dont even save time, hence I think nothing about store-bought sauce. Unless you like the taste of it and dont want real carbonara, then go for it.

“Sir, I understand the mitigsting circumstances you’ve just presented, however you also just admitted that you did indeed park in the handicap spot despite not being handicapped so I’m afraid I have no choice but to find you guilty and fine you accordingly.” Traffic court is a RIOT and I highly encourage you to make… Continue reading What was the most satisfying way you saw a defense get derailed in a courtroom?
What scam has been normalized to the point that people forget it’s a scam?
Phone and internet bundle contracts.. Heck “bundle deals” all together Often times you are not exactly saving on bundle deals they just force something slightly different (or sometimes the same thing) while bundled with something to inflate a bundle.. when you happen to need it. Fine.. usually can be not scammy.. but sometimes even if… Continue reading What scam has been normalized to the point that people forget it’s a scam?
When was the last time you were genuinely happy?
Yesterday… Went to work with a couple of co-workers who I genuinely like being around… Left work to do some personal projects, and then went to the gym with my sisters and had a good night… All in all, I was genuinely happy.
Weird Q might delete later.
Do you guys shave your area bald or.. trim it? I literally can only trim and groom lightly as I get really itchy and uncomfortable when I try to go too short or gone. I’ve only shaved it all off once and it was really hard and scary. Like.. there’s a lot of nooks and… Continue reading Weird Q might delete later.
What made you decide to be sober?
I like this answer. There’s a general consensus amongst people that there has to be a ‘rock bottom’ moment for people. You’ve just shown that there doesn’t always need to be something dramatic that causes a person to say enough is enough. Aside from this, well done on quitting.
People who have experienced lucid dreaming, what was your most surreal experience while in a lucid dream?
I asked some people in my dream if they were my subconscious, and one answered “last time you asked us that we told you that you have no conscience.” Not sure what it means, but it’s weird that I had that conversation with myself.

Hitler say all the bad stuff you want about him, dude’s obviously a great leader
What do you think WAS in the briefcase from Pulp Fiction?
I like the theory that it’s Samuel L Jackson’s Soul (Or was it Bruce Willis’ soul?) Realistically it’s probably really good heroin but it’s left blank for the viewer to decide on purpose.
Redditors, do you believe in mediums or psychics? If so, what is an experience you had that stopped you from being a skeptic?
I don’t believe in them. I do however believe that we can connect with our loved ones who departed in life through prayer, technology (recordings), stories from relatives, genetics, and dreams. I don’t trust what a complete stranger has to say about someone I knew.
Those who are able to enjoy music without imagining themselves in it, how??
I think that people that say they have no monologue in their head are lying, I truly think all if not alot of them are lying. I’m also open minded so I know ima sound dumb writing that 😂, i took a dab btw, so I don’t know what I’m talking about 😂
Ladies, how do you feel if someone, decent looking (not shady or selling sh*t) tried to strike a conversation with you in a public place?
Lady here. There’s always going to be a certain amount of wariness. Even you asking this question here implies that you’re trying to figure out how to flirt without flirting, haha. If we’re genuinely attracted to you, we might keep chatting. The least awkward place to talk to us out of the blue is somewhere… Continue reading Ladies, how do you feel if someone, decent looking (not shady or selling sh*t) tried to strike a conversation with you in a public place?
Which wedding rituals/ after wedding behaviour did you find oppressive?
My wife wanted to do a traditional thing where she washes my feet. Oppressive is a strong word. But it didn’t feel right to have her do that. Makes it seem like she’s beneath me, and I ain’t about that shit.
When Hate and Despair are all that are left, what lurks behind the corner ?.
More hate more despair, “love and hate are best the one you feed grows” Aka emotions create neurological pathways in your brain the more that emotion is fostered the stronger that pathway gets, it’s possible to regrow weak pathways with time effort
If you could have free meals for life at one fast food chain, which one would you choose?
Planet Pizza. It tastes a lot like the kind I grew up with in Jersey. I was actually going to use this restaurant I used to go to as a kid when we traveled… It had this buffet with a little bit of everything, pizza, tacos, wings,… It wasn’t very good, but it would cover… Continue reading If you could have free meals for life at one fast food chain, which one would you choose?
Who is the best superhero casting of all time?
Christopher Reeve in Superman, he was so good at being both the bumbling, feckless Clark Kent but then transforming into the amazing stranger from the planet Krypton. I might put Michael Keaton as Batman as a runner-up.
What is a way to make comedy perfect?
Less crowd work, crowd work is nice but a lot of comedians get out of pocket really fast. If crowd work is the main part of your act, it might suck
What’s your best “surprise I still love you” gift?
Upscaling a regular outing. Going to the movies? Surprise them with Cineopolis/luxury cinema. Going to a theme park? Surprise them with VIP tour. Going to dinner? Plan ahead and book at that place that’s always full and doesn’t take walk-ins. People remember experiences more than things. My favorite way to show my love is making… Continue reading What’s your best “surprise I still love you” gift?

Food travelers of Reddit, what famous restaurant (or other food spot) disappointed you the most?
The place at the top of the skylon in Niagara Falls (I forget the name of it). It was cool to be up there rotating around, but the food was double the price of a regular restaurant, and not nearly as good as many of the other restaurants around town.

What is your LEAST favorite car/type of car? And why?
The Vauxhall Insignia. It attracts the infamous kind of drivers that BMW’s or Audi’s would attract. Speeding, rude, inconsiderate, etc. … but, they’re even worse.
[serious] What advice do you have for an adult just learning how to drive?
Learn how to deal with ALL types of anxiety with the ease of a truck driver with tenure. No seriously, I think half the accidents I hear about are highly based on panic and a bad response to quick panic.
