And I always thought talking about income was taboo in the US. I was certainly raised not to ask people that question, as it was considered too personal. I didn't even know how much money my parents made.

I am kind of a professional troll/anarchist. I like to cause some chaos in real life through pranks, making people uncomfortable, and related. I was a big force in getting Trump elected, and enjoy trolling feminists, fat activist, and other liberals online since they react the funniest.

A few months ago I was at a local bar filming some pranks for my youtube channel and saw this pretty gross 1/10 girl. So I decide to troll her by asking her out. Well she of course said yes since I'm pretty awesome and good looking, and for the next few weeks I took her out on a serious of expensive fancy dates and bought her gifts. For Valentine's Day she kept dropping hints about needing a new car, and I did just that - bought the idiot a car. I've of course been filming everything on hidden cameras - from the first surf and turf dinner to last weekend, when she and I flew to Las Vegas for 2 days.

I finally proposed to her and filmed her reaction and it's admittedly not as hilarious as I thought. But anyway, she suggested a small ceremony, just the 2 of us at the courthouse. Which is good with me - it really sped up the whole process. I'm going to secretly film the whole thing and holy poo poo, the payoff to this is going to make me rich.

1000 youtube views equal about 100 dollars in ad revenue a month. I fully expect this to hit 1 million viewers, so that's 100,000 dollars right there. That'll pay off the credit card debt for this prank after just one month, and it's pure profit after the next month. All for tricking some moron female.

I love getting blackout drunk and submitting to this thread. I guess that AA is alright for some people. For me it felt too much like church; which conflicted with the only thing I hate more than being an alcoholic, which is hearing other people praise god. My childhood was a constant bounce between being raped by a family member, beaten by my mother, or abandoned to raise my siblings (which I did poorly). I begged god over and over again to make it better but it didn't happen. As a result I don't believe in god and I hate the very idea of him and if I suddenly found myself dead (one can hope) and in front of the bastard I would spit on him and attack with everything in my power.

Of course I don't expect that to happen but I'd still rather cut off my own loving head than go listen to a bunch of sad sack loving drunks blather on about how Jesus saved them.m

No hate but saying 'therapy' as the end all solution to problems is just not true.

I know this sounds more like EN but anyway. Let me preface with the obligatory "I love my GF but..."

My girlfriend of several years has gained at least 10-15kg since we started dating and wasn't slim to begin with. She is not fat, but she is definitely not slim either. Normally that would not be a problem, but it is the reason that annoys me to no end: She is just plain lazy.

Last time we talked about weight in the context of her mom's diabetes, she said herself she should probably do some sports to reduce her risk of also getting it later in life (we are in our 30ies right now.) We both have sedentary office jobs, so we need exercise to balance that. On top of that her hobbies are mostly reading a ton and watching TV which is perfectly fine, but no exercise).
I asked her to go running with me, offered we could buy her a bike (hers was stolen 4 years ago and she never bothered to buy a new one) and go do bike tours, I do all the cooking and keep that fresh and healthy (without obsessing over it like calory counting).

Long story short: She did not buy a bike (money is not an issue), said she would go swimming regularly as she just hates running (OK fair enough) but she only goes once a week for an hour, and not really regularly. I go running 2-3 times a week and her idea was to go swimming when I go running. Not happening.
I even started a "diet" under the pretense of wanting to lose some weight myself, as I want to get down to 80 from 85kg at 6"2' simply because that is a good weight for me and helps with running. She agreed to participate because "it can't hurt". I step on the scales every day and already lost 2.5 kgs, completely in line with the schedule. She did not even bother to get on the scales to establish a baseline, so who knows what she weighs.

Thing is: This all makes me (irrationally?) angry. I hate that she refuses any kind of help I try to subtly give her and I find I am not attracted to her physically any more while I still love her as a person, which is very difficult. While I think she should loose about 10 kgs (or 20 but 10 would be a start), that's not even it, it is her lazyness and missing motivation to do anything about it that makes her unattractive to me. We have the time and money, she could go to a gym or anything just do SOMETHING. Whenever she asks for dessert or a joghurt or some fruit on top of an already ample meal I cringe inside.

I guess my confession is I am boiling inside and way too close to telling her all this bluntly and ask her to "woman up" and get poo poo done, but at the same time I know her insecurities and that would only set her off in the wrong direction, and I really don't want to hurt her, much less lose her. And I am poo poo at being diplomatic once I am annoyed enough, which is the case here. I literally want to spend the rest of my life with her but I dread the direction this is going, because given enough years of this she'll end up fat.

I go to the zoo 2-3 times a month to make fun of this dumbshit snake that lives there. He's got these goofy rear end cross eyes and when I tap on the glass, he'll strike at it like an idiot and end up just scaring himself. I've been asked to leave a few times but they don't remember me so I can come back whenever.

I do not hate all snakes but this one reminds me a lot of my uncle, probably because they are both named Ron and both have crosseyes. I kind of wish somebody had locked Ron up like this snake because maybe then a lot of bad stuff wouldn't have happened.

How the hell can a snake have crossed eyes? They're on the sides of their heads.

Honestly I think coming right out and telling her she needs to start losing weight is the best option. I had a girlfriend tell me that once when I put on 20lbs, and yeah, it hurts your feelings but at the end of the day you know where you stand and it's either lose weight and keep your significant other or lose them. If subtlety isn't working then it's time to just tell her how you feel.
