I think narcissists are like a double-edged sword. On one hand, they may be genuinely confident and secure in themselves and their abilities. On the other hand, they may be overcompensating for some underlying insecurities that they can’t quite shake. In either case, it’s best to just ignore them.

It’s the ultimate stage of a romantic relationship, but it’s not a finish line.

What does a good day look like to you, from the moment you wake until the moment you sleep?
A clear blue sky, the sun out in its glory, and a nice breeze. The first day of Summer, usually, is the best time to feel this in my opinion. I get seasonal depression, so during the winter, cloudy days make me feel really dulled out. Maybe that’s just my vitamin D deficiency.

What do you think of Bill Burr?
It’s comedy, after all. It is intended to be provocative in order to attract an audience. He goes for low-hanging fruit and does a lot of pandering to a specific audience.

Which werewolf from anywhere is your favorite?
It used to be Harry Potter but ever since I learned that it was an allegory for HIV I’m no longer a fan to be honest. Not exactly handled in a sensitive enough manner. More like a sledgehammer swung by the world’s most obnoxiously obtuse pulp typer. JK Rowling is a dogshit author.
Has anyone got back with an ex? How did it go?
I wanted to for a long time. I tried to for a long time. Eventually, I realized that even if we did get back together, things just wouldn’t be the same. I think it depends also on how long it’s been.

What is a word pronunciation that you really like but, unfortunately, is only used in an accent that’s not your own so you’d sound really weird if you started using it?
I like how nice and fancy Americans make the name “Bernard” sound. With an American accent, Bernard is probably a professor of art history who spends a lot of time at the opera. With an English accent, Bernard is your local odd-job man who spends a lot of time in wetherspoons.

Not sure where the tech is at just now. Is IVF straightforward for fertile women, because you usually here participants going multiple rounds. Maybe theoretically redundant, but it doesn’t seem completely practical to do away with us just yet.

Would you rather have the ability to look at any moment in the past, or the ability to look at any moment in the future? Why?
The future. Just because I could prepare for things to come, prevent things from happening, and most of all check future lottery numbers. Being able to look at any moment in the past would be fun, but I feel like it would just upset me because I have a lot of things I regret.

What is the worst job?
I think being the representative of your country would be the worst (King, President, Prime minister etc).

Like Jordan Peterson / Ben Shapiro, I think appeals mostly to the more suggestible persons in this world, particularly from poor childhoods looking for justification which a lot of times comes out as misogyny.

Make a movie about each X man where nothing happens except they don’t like each other.

Depends on your country, in the US stability is fleeting in any of those fields.

Healthcare is a big reason.

people are bad relationship, what’s keeping you in it?
For me it was the amount I defended him. When all my friends would point out red flags, I’d defend him because it was hard to see how bad things were. At the end, it was hard to admit I was wrong.

No, it’s not, and these people that view religion as nothing other than a bat shit cult worshipping an invisible God, are incredibly ignorant.

It’s my belief that North American towns are failing because of a lack of cohesion,… Continue reading Is a church basically a book club that can’t get past the first book? Why or why not?

There isn’t a clear consensus, but from what I’ve seen most people seem to prefer gas stoves. There are a few reasons for this.

What would a ‘Good People Network’, a place to praise good, helpful, selfless people in our lives, look like?

Men of Reddit, what did you do when you found out women actually shit?
Women aren’t any shittier than guys. As I see it, most people are pretty disappointing.

What do you think about the statement “always trust a lazy person to do a difficult task, because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it”?
Exactly. There’s a huge difference between someone who says “There has to be a better way to do this” and doesn’t accept “That’s the way we’ve always done it” as an answer, and someone who’s actually lazy. In my experience, whenever a really lazy coworker has been given a difficult task, they’ve always done the… Continue reading What do you think about the statement “always trust a lazy person to do a difficult task, because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it”?
What’s it like to live in a country that has more than one official language?
In Finland the two official languages are Finnish and Swedish, but I come from a Finnish speaking family, so the only effect for me is that I had to learn Swedish in school. Most Swedish speaking people live near the capital or on the west coast near Sweden. I live far from both places, so… Continue reading What’s it like to live in a country that has more than one official language?
What dog breed is under-appreciated?
Chihuahuas. A lot of people don’t like them, which is as because when given the right love and care, chihuahuas can be wholesome sweet hearts. I used to hate chihuahuas, it wasn’t until I owned one that I was proven wrong.
What’s your most mind boggling shower thought?
Goofy and Pluto are both dogs that exist in the same universe, yet one walks, wears clothes, and talks; the other does none of these things.

Looking back on your life, what’s something you hate, and why?
Being advertised to. I tried watching cable TV while visiting my parents a few months back, and the sheer amount of commercials made my hair stand up. I don’t know how I just tuned that out as a kid. Not to mention constant pop-ups, banners that slide onto fan wiki pages and other articles. It’s… Continue reading Looking back on your life, what’s something you hate, and why?
Who knows the most secrets about you?
My sister. She knows EVERYTHING and there isn’t a thing I could think, say, do that I wouldn’t feel comfortable telling her about it. She tells me what’s what, but never in a judgemental way. She always wants what’s best for me. I love my sister.

What’s a phrase women hate hearing from men ?

What’s a way to turn an introvert into an extrovert?
I don’t think it is necessarily a good thing to turn someone extrovert. I know a girl who was extremely shy, socially awkward but very brilliant.

She goes to outdoor public events topless with only… Continue reading What’s a way to turn an introvert into an extrovert?

If you were to make a list of “fun facts about me,” what would you include?
I had a student tell me that sometimes his dad got drunk and asked his mom for things; as I was starting to tell him he didn’t need to elaborate any further, he continued with “like soup and he yells it like ‘soooooooooup’” it took every bit of restraint to not laugh. It’s been years… Continue reading If you were to make a list of “fun facts about me,” what would you include?

People who’ve acted in HR training videos for a company, what was that experience like?
Not HR, lifeguard training. I played someone who needed to be rescued and pulled into a boat. It SUCKED! The water was freezing cold and they kept scraping my back across the boat. If I showed any reaction, it would ruin the take and they’d put me back in the water.

If you could learn a language which one would you choose and why?
I’m trying really hard to learn Spanish. I’m not good at learning to speak languages. I can understand better than I can speak.

I’ll likely be close to this kid and watch them a lot, so I want… Continue reading If you could learn a language which one would you choose and why?
Women of Reddit: Have you ever been inside the men’s restroom? What was the circumstances and your impressions?
I’ve been inside only once in elementary school. Every bathroom set up was girls on the right and boys on the left, so I just kind of zoned out and walked to the right without actually looking at the signage.

I mean, if that’s what the bride & groom want, okay. Hard to imagine it not excluding guests who would otherwise want to attend, though. I think an unrestricted ceremony and childless reception is a good compromise.

People with mental illness, how accurate does fiction depict mental illness?
As someone with dissociative identity disorder, well fiction is my worst enemy in terms of representation. It is never portrayed with any accuracy, and most often only used to make a character seem more ‘interesting’ and fetishizes the hell out of it. Y’know the movie Split? Yeah fuck that movie and the person who made… Continue reading People with mental illness, how accurate does fiction depict mental illness?

People that like math (subject at school) of reddit, why and how?
This is not a blanket rule, but I would say that generally, enjoyment of math is directly proportional to effort.

My suggestion- start at the beginning of the… Continue reading People that like math (subject at school) of reddit, why and how?

We lived right next to a huge field and across the road from Lake Michigan so on a summer night there would be a million crickets singing, and I could smell the lake through the open window right by my bed. Such a peaceful place, just thinking about it gives me the feels.

What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever seen someone do?
I’ve yet to see this happen in person, but people approaching wild animals. It’s the only reason I’d ever visit Yellowstone. Not to see the volcanoes or the hot springs, but to watch idiots approach wild bison and get absolutely flung across the road for being stupid enough to do so.

we shouldn’t, but bored billionaires have to do something with their fortunes before they die, or there was no point to becoming this successful in the first place. they want to be remembered, we as the average people shouldn’t, not until these fuckwads pioneer it to make them habitable.
You just walked into your favorite store with unlimited money. What are you buying?
I’m going going to a jewelry store and buying the lot. However, to answer the question honestly, my fav spot is an electronic/tech store and I’m buying that place out. Phones, tablets, monitors, sound systems, e-scooters, bikes, high-end PCs, hard drives, you name it. Everything
What is the last YouTube channel you unsubscribed from and why?
Mrbeast. His content is children’s content now, skips over way too many special moments, overedited, and fast paced.
What is your favorite grunge band? Why?
Pearl Jam, mainly because they have a good variety of songs depending on my mood. I can listen to an angry sounding song (State of Love and Trust), a sad one (Black), a pretty one (Just Breathe), or a weird experimental one (Do the Evolution). That said, my favorite band that is “grunge-adjacent” is The… Continue reading What is your favorite grunge band? Why?
American servers, do you like the tipping system we have? Why or why not?

what is a scent you wish was a candle scent?
The “smell of space.” Astronauts have reported space having a certain smell, and it sounds interesting. (Or, more likely, this is the result of off-gassing and solar radiation exposure.) Someone did make a candle of this, but added stuff to make it more “pleasant.” I don’t want “pleasant”; I want the real thing!
What do you think about a CEO who cleans the bathroom along with the other janitors and they all get paid the same?
It sounds like that would be a pretty principled CEO—a rarity in any day and age. Realistically, while cleaning the bathroom occasionally is fine, the CEO can’t be a full-time or even part-time janitor and still have the time to do their CEO job. Although, now that I say it, most of a CEO’s work… Continue reading What do you think about a CEO who cleans the bathroom along with the other janitors and they all get paid the same?
What do you think of the buccal fat removal trend?
Awful. Though I generally think that about all plastic surgery trends. Why anyone would want to remove the part of their face that makes them look youthful and instead look gaunt and mature is beyond me. Your mature days will come, just enjoy who you are now

LGBTQ people of reddit, what’s are some common misconceptions?
One misconception a lot of people have is that bisexual people are all attracted to both genders/sexes more or less equally.

Often, that does not define… Continue reading LGBTQ people of reddit, what’s are some common misconceptions?
Americans of Reddit- How are interracial and gay couples treated in the South? Are they routinely attacked? If so, why?
The south is not a monolith. And what exactly qualifies as “routinely” might be a matter of debate or discussion. But broadly speaking, and understanding that there are a host of factors and variables involved, interracial and/or LGBTQ+ couples are more likely to face discrimination or hostility in the southern US than in the north.
What if bees sting you just so they can die?
Well, they don’t do it to die, they do it to defend the hive, and the loss of a couple of workers is evolutionarily worth it.

It could be as fast if… Continue reading People who hate cars, why?

What are some songs that clash thematically with their music videos?
Phil Collins’s “I Wish It Would Rain Down” is a sad, quasi-blues song, but its video is hilariously self-deprecating showing “Bill Collins” getting the opportunity to sing in a theater production, imagining this is going to be his big break but ultimately getting rebuffed.
How do you tell if somebody is intelligent without telling them they are intelligent?
Ask them a question about a problem that you have. The ones who answer immediately with a prideful tone are the ones that have a bigger ego than intellect.

For ghost believers of Reddit. How can one believe in ghost if ego dies with the physical body therefore leaving consciousness without an identity?
Not that I am an expert or believe in ghosts, But your question includes the inevitable assumption that identity is interchangeable and equal with ego. Your question would only make sense if and when it is for certain that ego and identity is hundred percent correlated. Like I said, I’m not an expert so please… Continue reading For ghost believers of Reddit.

Spaghetti.

Is it possible for schools to teach kids how to approach politics and discourse responsibly? Why aren’t they succeeding at it currently?
This is just me but one reason my school fail at it with me is that I’m completely discouraged from paying any amount of attention in those classes.

Whats the best gaming momments you have ever had?
I was playing Homeworld against another guy. He thought that he’d win because he built a crapload of capital ships. I forget what they’re called, but I just built a crapload of these corvettes that can bring other ships to your mothership, and convert them to your own. He was pissed.
How do you prepare your kids to handle bullying?
I’d definitely tell my kids to stand up for themselves. Bullies pick on people they see as weak. So my goal would be to make sure my child is the least weakest kid in school. I’d teach my child to verbally fight back with insults if they were insulted but never escalate to physical unless… Continue reading How do you prepare your kids to handle bullying?
If you are unhappily married, why?
Not married thank god. But I’d imagine financial ruin is a huge possibility. Imagine you worked your ass off to get to a certain point in life, and the single point of failure for your retirement is divorcing a woman you’re unhappy with. That among other reasons would probably make me unhappily married too.

What advice would you give to a senior or college freshman about picking a major that will define career?
I would say that your major doesn’t actually define your career most of the time. Even if you’re going on to get a higher degree, like a medical degree, the medical schools don’t limit themselves to people who majored in premedical fields like biology. Even for technical degrees like engineering, the specific field of engineering… Continue reading What advice would you give to a senior or college freshman about picking a major that will define career?

People who stay in restaurants when they are clearly trying to close, why do you do it?
I don’t know the specific situation you’re discussing, but I think sometimes in social situations like this there can be an issue of people assuming that others are picking up on the social cues they’re sending and when they don’t react in a way you think is appropriate then it gets attributed to malice.

According to you which series is the most underrated tv series?
Because The Expanse had a lot of great ideas, and they never got fleshed out. It got boring real quick. It’s not the space opera it could have been, and it feels that way.

What is the most disgusting thing you have ever witnessed?
In my freshman year of high school, there was this pair of creepy twins that kind of inserted themselves into my friend group.

Where did it all begin where does it all end Like if you think about it, what happens before the big bang, and then what happens before that, and does it go infinitely back or where does it all begin and then where does it end how much longer does it (it being the universe) go on?
I feel like it’s an endless loop Everything apparently came out of nothing, right? That nothingness somehow created everything we currently know. So once this universe ceases to exist, it will “restart” itself and continue over and over until the end of time

For me, it has been great. As children, we were both best friend and one another’s punching bags… now we’re only best friends, luckily. We always had one another’s back, though.

Do you agree that low performing schools districts fail to prepare students for the college? Why or not why?
So this isn’t going to be a popular thing to say, but I’ve done enough research to stand by it. The “performance” of a school is basically just a reflection of the demographics of that school.
