I intentionally left out the part where I've been with the same person for 13 years and married for 6. In my case there was no difference at all from being married vs not being married. We had already did far more important and trustworthy things with each other (buying a house and sharing bank accounts) so marriage was nothing. imagine our surprise when we learned that the whole name change thing wasn't included in marriage, it's a totally separate thing and it baffled both of us as to why people do it, poo poo is a pain in the rear end! Like I said though I'm far from a traditionalist in any capacity so of course I'd get all  about it.

KakerMix posted:I'm all for ripping on Rhyno because it's fun, easy, and good for the soul, but I'll never understand statements like these. What exactly is marriage vs. being together? Basically, yes, it should be just a formality, but for whatever reason, having the relationship officialized/formalized in some way sometimes changes a person's perspective on it, not always for the better. It represents a commitment, now public and official, which just fucks some people up. It's all in the head, basically. Metal Geir Skogul posted:I opened it just now. It smells like Titebond wood glue, and tastes the same. I don't detect ANY banana or whatever the gently caress. Obviously, your plebeian taste buds aren't sophisticated enough to catch the subtle notes of flavor. Also, I'm going to go out on a limb and say I'm not going to be buying or drinking that.

Wife and I have been married for 10 years this September, and together for 16 total minus a few months in the beginning years. All marriage really does is cement the fact that there isn't an easy out, and encourages you to work poo poo out. Our marriage hasn't been perfect, and we've fought bad enough for long enough that separation and divorce became an option, but it's still worth it. Our biggest issue was for the beginning 6 years of our marriage, I was gone constantly. You can't learn how to deal with one another when one person is gone for 10 months a year. Once we were more stable is when poo poo got super rough, but we worked it out because we both really do want to be together and we learned how to change and get better. It's not even like we have kids to cement it, we really are just best friends with a bigger commitment.

Darchangel posted:Only tool I have for that is Apple Disk Utility, which tries, but ultimately fails when the drive disappears. It's like the controller gives up after a certain amount of data or something. gddrescue, yo. Also, NTFS drives mounted in linux via NTFS-3G just ignore file permissions (at least if you're root, as of a few years ago), so that is another approach to grabbing stuff. But I still don't like spending any time operating a failing drive except whatever is necessary to image it somewhere else. And gddrescue is the best for that, because it can just keep trying blocks until it has success, and skipping bad blocks to come around for them later, instead of aborting the whole thing when it runs into an issue like explorer does.

The fish/seafood thing I don't really get. Unless you've got an allergy, there's so many ways to serve fish with such a large variety of flavors and textures that I can't imagine you couldn't stand all of them without being an incredibly picky eater, in which case you're missing out. More fish for the rest of us I guess. Plus trying weird things is one of the great things about travel, your favorites were once strange and new to you at some point. In any case, it's Ryno's honeymoon, they're entitled to enjoy it however they like, but a good ribbing is always fun.

She worked in a seafood joint for much of her teenage years. I have seen her gag when i eat cocktail shrimp. I dont like a lot of foods so i dont eat them, not even when on vacation. Incidentally, we are way off the beaten path tonight at the urging of a local friend. The traffic in this city is horrifying.

More fish for the rest of us I guess. I want to like fish and I've tried a lot of fish prepared a lot of different ways in various locations but it always has the same overpowering taste of stagnant pond water. The only exceptions so far are battered and fried white fish since the dominant flavor is fried batter with only a hint of pond water and I'm also ok with Costco's canned tuna. Seafood is basically the only food I don't enjoy so I wouldn't consider myself an incredibly picky eater. Galler fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Mar 9, 2018 |

We were together for 7 years before we got married, that was 12 years ago. Both of us had friends that got married within a year or two of meeting, none lasted more than a couple of years total. Best of luck Rhyno, no one knows what the future will bring but having put up with each other for years previously is a dammed good foundation for resisting the poo poo the future will bring. Like the heated discussion we had at 2am this morning about the loving duvet. Pro-tip, get a much bigger duvet than the mattress size. Pro-er-tip, get 2 matching duvets

133 kWh away from a $100 discount on my electric bill. A friend did an entire month's worth of laundry in about 24 hours, which killed drat near 200 kWh. My meter is probably getting read at midnight on Monday. Let the space heaters + air conditioner battle commence! (on the outlets that don't crackle/produce ozone smells when used, anyway.. cripes the wiring in here is a shitshow) When I move, I'll be on a co-op with fixed rates, on a middle floor, in a place that was built in an era when the word "insulation" wasn't a swear word. And looking over my contract with my current provider, it looks like the simple act of moving is enough to terminate my contract without an ETF (my ETF is pretty painful with the power company... $250), I just need to figure out what proof they need. My ETF with Frontier is a lot less ($60), but I think I remember something about them waiving it if you move to an area they don't service (and they definitely don't service the new place). Rhyno posted:A goon strongly urged me to get del taco, but hey whatever. How do I put this nicely.... I guess the best way is to say that Del Taco opened a bunch of stores in Texas several years ago (mostly in DFW). There's not a single store left in the entire state; the nearest one to me is 2 1/2 hours away in Oklahoma. Texans loves tacos. Del Taco is not "taco". Del Taco is, dare I say it, even worse than Taco Bell. Taco loving Casa survives here, despite being worse than Taco Bell (but at least their stuff is a lot fresher...). Goober Peas posted:His knees aren't going to carpetburn themselves I managed carpet burn on my rear end cheeks last week.  Darchangel posted:Also had Pho multiple times, since my wife is meh on that, but I discovered I really like it. Please tell me you're aware of the thousands of pho places in DFW. It's seriously 1 step behind taquerias/tacos in how popular it is here. I'm all about pho, but tendon kinda grosses me out, so I mostly stick to the Americanized pho places (Pho Bowl for the most part, DaLat occasionally if I want pho late at night). There's one pho place that delivers to me on Uber Eats, but it's far enough that if the driver doesn't use an insulated bag (and 99% of uber drivers don't), it's cold when I get it.  (and to be honest, both Pho Bowl and DaLat have a lot more flavor).Rhyno posted:I mean poo poo, STR spent so much time here he caught the straight.

85%+ of the reasoning for me and my wife getting married was "it would be cool to have a party for everyone we like and then go on a nice holiday" and I have zero regrets on that. I was too drunk to eat any of the expensive cheeseboard, I do regret that I suppose, but the first hour or two of the reception was just people bringing me pints of lager or glasses of scotch and things got messy

I'm in two minds about marriage these days. I've had one end and another long term "domestic partnership" also fail after 9 years.... I'm kinda glad I wasnt married this time around. I will say the marriage was worth it. Hard work but even in the end, I have much fond memories. The recent relationship..... ummm..... yeah maybe not so good and my mental state seriously unravelled at the end too. The one thing you cant overlook about a forml marriage is the legal certainty of the relationship it brings. Sure "defacto" is supposed ot have the same but in reality it doesnt. The only thing I miss right now from either is having a cat. Cant have that where I am right now.... kinda blows rear end but I cant complain about the general freedom to keep my own schedule. I ahve hosed myself financially but mentally.... I am doing sooooo much better and I'm starting to ride big kms again.

I've been with my girlfriend for around 18 months now, and things are still pretty awesome. We cook and bake a lot, go to museums and concerts and stuff, love many of the same TV shows, the sex is AMAZING, and she's 100% supportive of me spending a lot of time with my friends without her having to come along. We've had a few minor bumps, but we're both very clear that open communication is the best way to solve them. She's under a lot of stress in relation to her PhD work, and because she's finding it very hard to find new friends here in Denmark, so that is the reason for some of the misunderstandings. I think we're doing quite well, I'm just a little concerned with all the stories of awesome relationships that turned sour.

My only experience at a Del Taco is trying to get a bite there while on shift between calls and a 2 year old at a family's table just completely swan-diving off their chair and landing on the floor head-first. The dad grabbed the child by the ankle and picked them up upside-down and yelled "WELL LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID YOU LITTLE rear end in a top hat!" and then thankfully my radio toned a call out so we could escape that situation, even before the food came.

As long as you talk, poo poo works out. We've had hiccups, we've had times we wanted to kill each other - but poo poo we've made it through. We both love cooking and baking, so we do a lot of that together. We share some hobbies, we have our own things to. Do what works, and just keep talking.

Rhyno posted:The divorce rate in AI is pretty goddamn high. Add in the ones who cry about being alone and yeah, i generally ignore any and all relationship advice fron this forum. The divorce rate everywhere is pretty high. Marriage is hard and people have hosed up ideas about it. Just wait till something you've done consistently for the last 9 years is no longer ok because it's different now for no good reason. On the flip side, I really hope you never deal with that and that things continue to be great for you.

I know you can run Ubuntu and such off of a thumb drive with portable apps, so I really have no excuse other than  .On this stupid SSD, I think there's actually something wrong with the controller, rather than the SDRAM itself. It'll transfer a certain, variable amount of data, then spontaneously dismount. On another machine, it will constantly dismount and remount. It's weird.
