Don't most white (or mostly white, in this kid's case) 2-year-olds have really pale hair and eyes? That's not exactly a smoking gun for IT'S A LOVECHILD.

Maybe these people are related to the baby-discarding robots and are angry that the girlfriend didn't abandon her one-month-old child after her husband died, since clearly that's the optimal choice for a grieving individual to reduce stress beep boop beep

Agreed.

quote:

My friend (29F) has never been in a relationship, crushes on people after one date and doesn't take no for an answer. Perpetually heartbroken, a little creepy and I don't know what to say as I listen to her problems.
Title is quite explanatory.

I have a friend, who is very loyal, fun to be with and mature in general. However, when it comes to men, she acts like she is a 12 year old fan girl.

She has never been in a relationship, which may partly explain her behavior. She would go on one date and is either a) not interested even remotely or b) completely in love. Lastly, she went on a date with a guy who she fell in love so deeply that she has been completely heartbroken and unable to function for the few months. She still cries at least once or twice a week. They went on two dates. On the second date the guy broke it off saying that he isn't feeling "the thing" but likes her as a person, nonetheless. She, on the other hand, felt that they had a connection beyond words. Then, I guess she got stuck in the "but he likes me as a person???"-part.

So after this, she has a) stalked him everywhere, both online and IRL (eg looked at the events he goes to through FB and goes to the same events) b) blocked him, then unblocked him and apologized and blocked him again from everywhere c) tried to persuade him to give her a chance and then being pissed for him being such an rear end in a top hat that won't give a chance to a nice girl like her, every time they "bump" into each other in these events. I guess she is pretty much the female version of "Nice Guy". Based what she's told me, he has always been cordial but she just goes nuts at him, after which he always apologizes for not feeling the same....

I like her for other reasons the what I've stated above (obviously), but I'm getting worried of her. She wants to have a family and all that jazz. Outside of this, she is really completely normal, she doesn't "hate all men", and she doesn't suffer from any other mental issues. She is actually very stable or so it would seem. But her behavior in the dating scene is completely off and scares people. Even with guys that have liked her back (in the beginning), she gets absolutely way ahead in the relationship (in her head) so the guy runs away. Hell, I'd be scared to date her.

Anyways, how could I gently communicate to her that a) I cannot listen to her heartbreaks because they make no sense b) her actions are direct reasons why she hasn't met anyone yet.

TL;DR: My friend is a Nice Girl.

I don't get pissy when women complain about men, I just have lurked these threads for months now and have read a novels worth of bitching about men from the same people. Nobody else does it from either gender.

It's the same concept as someone posting in this thread constantly about politics. If someone was turning every r/relationships story into poo poo like "Obviously this child was beating that cat because it was raised as a liberal" that doesn't mean that when I tell that person to shut the gently caress up that I'm being political, I just don't want to read them projecting their issues for the 300th time since it has nothing to do with the topic.

Plenty of men are garbage human beings..Here's the thing though, plenty of women are also garbage human beings.

I'm curious what the response would be if there was a Nega-Pick that squatted in this thread turning every story posted into a treatise on why women are stupid / crazy / emotional / weak / not funny / whatever other personal issues they want to project on an entire gender completely outside of the discussion that is happening here leading to stupid loving derails exactly like this.

何 ??

A friend of my boyfriend is like this, she texted him about this guy who came over to install some kind of appliance, and she talked about how he was obviously hitting on her and being flirty, then at the end of it he gave her his number. She got all worked up about this cute guy and whether she should call him or not, and when she finally did, he said "How can I help you, ma'am?". She missed the fact that he gave his number in case she had any issues with the product. I still make fun of her for getting customer-zoned.

as a woman you can't understand the plight of a man that has to put up with women being universally, 100% unfunny and making terrible jokes like these.

This is relevant to the thread and is not at all a projection of my personal issues.

for the record, (and not attempting to derail) I'm a kinda sub average guy. I wasn't trying to make fun of those womens photos posted earlier. It just really bothers me when a group of basically nice looking people all agree together that ugly people don't even loving exist. it's a little like trying to be 'colorblind' and ignoring the effect that racism has on people's lives and opportunities.


edit: and the whole "i'm black" thing is basically, assuming I'm butt ugly because I stand up for ugly people implies that recognizing the existence of racism means I must be a minority.

From /r/legaladvice:
Ontario, Canada.. is farting on the train assault? serious question

quote:

I was on the go train, basically a commuter train, it wasn't too busy but someone sat across from me diagonally. I had McDonald's as I was in a rush, got gassy, was holding it in but it was a bit bumpy and I let a fart out.

It smelled bad, so I said I'm sorry, was trying to hold that in. Person proceeds to flip out,saying I have to give them my name since I "assaulted them with noxious fumes". I was fairly confident you can't be arrested for farting so I just told them to "pound sand" and call the cops or security. I was even polite enough to say I'd even stay at the stop until they came to tell them that the person was an idiot.

Nothing ended up coming of it, they stormed off, I heard nothing else about it.

Now my question is twofold, was it assault? Was it bad I apologized and admitted fault initially?

Also I should note that when they were flipping out, my initial embarrassment turned into me laughing at them, which basically antagonized them more. At that point I couldn't help it, not sure if that changes the answer.

I tried to search fart in legaladvice here, but besides usernames I didn't see much. Sorry if this is a dumb post.

quote:

The definition of assault in Ontario is an "intentional application of force". A fart is likely not considered to be a "force" and because you can't really hold one back when you need to let one rip, it would't be considered intentional.
If you pushed someone down and then farted in their face, the above would not apply.

EDIT: More content:

(IL) My idiot brother bought about 900$ worth of electronics on his credit card and then reported it stolen. How hosed is he.

quote:

My 18 year old brother somehow managed to get a credit card with a $1000 limit despite still being a highschool student. After like two months of being an adult with it he decided to splurge, buying over $900 worth of video game crap at bestbuy, and then after feeling buyers remorse, reported the card stolen and claimed the charges were fraudlent, a ruse that was quickly figured out. Me and my mom are livid, but also need to know how screwed we are, and what we should do. What's going to happen next?

quote:

Your brother committed a felony. He needed to consult a criminal defense attorney yesterday. Stop discussing this on Reddit.
