Fintilgin posted:I can't even push the mean/evil dialog choices in rpgs. The evil route is always the most fun! Let's talk about how we play RPGs! I usually start by playing a character making the decisions I would make. (tends to be more good than bad, but some games like Fable I wind up a monster). Then I play a goody two shoes. Then I play a balls to the wall psychopath. Balls to the wall psychopath is always the best. There's nothing like beating a merchant to death because the sword behind him looks cool just to find out it's worse than what you already have. Oh well!

yeah I don't even want to hurt the digital approximation of a human. I think it is healthy and good that we are not entertained by the fantasy of human suffering but the hosed up part is that some people think everyone secretly wants to be an evil fucker because they do. seems like a lot of these dudes are basically Eric cartman.

The Internet has a lot of buzzwords that are basically code for "caring about things I don't care about, which is obviously bad and wrong" "Virtue signalling" is a good one but I think "purity test" is my favorite quote:Came home from work yesterday to a screaming wife and screaming kids. Defused the situation, praised everyone for at least something and and then my wife broke down sobbing about how can you be so kind all the time I'm such a bad mom I feel so useless, useless to them, useless to you... You can talk to us about it, sure, but it seems like you need to talk to her about it Phrase it as trying to help her ofc, tell her she needs to figure out better ways to deal with stress. See thread title etc. Mindfulness meditation would probably be a good thing to try. She should try to get a hobby and stuff too. Something crafty perhaps. Most of the time when someone is angry all the time it's because they're miserable and don't know how to manage it, and these are always good steps to take to try to chill out a little bit. quote:I've started to enjoy what I call "Lowtaxing" redditors: reporting them for comical, over the top threats that meet the letter of Reddit's anti-violence rules, but not the spirit. I'd say that you're helping because Reddit doesn't do nearly enough to drive off their weirdos, but honestly most of the time subreddit mods are loving idiots as well (particularly in r/r) and their rules are stupid so

Or church, of course. Gotta keep up appearances On the bright side you're saving a fortune on child care by having a stay at home wife. Chin up, sport.

tactlessbastard posted:On the bright side you're saving a fortune on child care by having a stay at home wife. Chin up, sport. In some ways I feel it's really easy to just swoop in and be the hero when you haven't been home all day with the kids and probably don't have anywhere near the hours of interaction your wife has with them. From personal experience, I would rather go to work and deal with the professional stress than stay home tackling the tedious chores of parenting, and it's hard for me to fault your wife for feeling the same way. Bad mom guilt is unproductive though; she could look into getting a job and you guys could explore other childcare options, if the current situation isn't fulfilling and you think it's bad for your family's mental health.

He may be saving on child care in theory, but in practice all he really has is adult supervision. Apparently nothing is getting done around the house until he does it, so she might as well get a job and they get a nanny.

Badmom goon, One of the major symptoms of my depression is feeling worthless and like I'm trash at everything and terrible for my wife and a bad husband and a bad caregiver to our dog and going to be an abysmal father some day. Fun stuff. Good news and non Anon confession is that a mix of therapy and Prozac have knocked my depression on its rear end and I haven't had a serious depressive episode since restarting Prozac like a month ago, when it used to be a few times a week. Maybe your wife has serious broke brain like me and it's interfering badly with her ability to cope with things (other symptom for me was a massive inability to cope with any setbacks, I'd hit a minor bug in my code and want to sob at how useless my work is and how I'll never amount to anything) and feel good about herself. Idk if what works for me will work for her, but stuff is totally work looking into. Basically, thread title. Do it now

"Worst case Ontario" is a Ricky-ism from Trailer Park boys that's caught on in Canada and people will use it in place of "worst case scenario". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jfq3c4Cf1Fs I've also heard "Get two birds stoned at once" and "what goes around is all around" in the wild a few times. \/ ah drat missed the explaining post, shameful posting.

From last page, but my 24 year old friend recently hired a private detective, found her estranged birth father whom she’s never met, and marched up to his door in the middle of dinner to introduce herself. It went well, but his family is still pretty sidelined by the whole thing, especially his other teenage kids. Even if you legally absolve yourself of responsibility, eventually one day they might come looking for you and your entire life might change 20-30 years from now. So be ready... uh, forever I guess. You should actually confess because it doesn’t sound like your marriage is going that well.

quote:I poo poo in a urinal today. It felt good! Then I wiped my rear end with a paper towel and smeared it on the wall. loving jagoff didn't want to serve me any more beers, I showed that guy now his bathroom needs fixed I think I've been to this bar before quote:I wish I could ghost my family. The dynamic between my mother and my two younger brothers is so toxic I can't stand it anymore. The three of them are some of the most stubborn, short-tempered, stupid people I have the displeasure of knowing. My mother and middle brother (20) have untreated mental issues, which I recognize isn't their fault but it's the kind of mental illness where they could, on a good day, pass for sane, self-controlled human beings in public, which makes it all the more harder when they devolve into the low-EQ mongrels I know them to be. The youngest brother, 14, is growing up in a toxic environment and its very depressing having to watch him turn into one of them, minus the mental illness but with all the yelling and screaming and inability to sit down and vocalize himself rationally. I'm also afraid he's being infected by our father, whom my mother divorced (after he cheated on her with some Philipian dude he met online) and with whom I have no personal contact. The worst part though, is that the 20yo "allegedly" attempted to sexually abuse the 14yo when the two of them were 12 and 6, respectively. Nothing ever came of it, the middle brother went to some clinic and my mother got him out because she missed him and felt guilty or some insane poo poo. This was around the divorce so it probably affected her judgment. I was too young to do anything about any of this, the "incident" and the divorce happened so fast it broke everything in my life before I knew what to do. I never bothered to learn the details of what happened, but supposedly my middle brother was negatively affected by his at-the-time prescribed medication. In any case, I don't think there's any hope for these people. Mom is nuts, middle brother is nuts, younger brother is probably hosed up for life even if he had the potential to turn out okay, and Dad doesn't care. I fantasize about abandoning my life and moving somewhere else, anywhere, and deleting all my social media and everything. I wish I could cleanse these degenerates from my life. As it is, being the oldest brother (and the de facto male authority) I have to try keep things stable. I don't want to kill them or myself if that's what all this makes it look like. I just want to escape. And now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together Seriously though, Michael Bluth hosed off and went NC multiple times and so can you. These people really don't have to be your problem. You could maybe make some kind of legal play to get custody of your youngest brother but only if you think you could do any better of a job. You don't have to do anything drastic like move away and change your phone number, but maybe just let it go to voicemail sometimes.

Ghost goon: Just do it. If you have the means, go. If you have any family members you like, tell them you're leaving and you'll be in touch but under no circumstances should any information be relayed to mother or siblings. If not, leave a note saying you're leaving under your own volition and will contact when and if you decide to. But keep track just in case they still try to file a missing persons report so you can notify the police that you are not missing and they[your family] don't need to know where you are.

Is it just me or have people really started to use these weird disease terms for interpersonal relationships? Like I know people have been using "toxic" and "infecting" for like almost 10 years now but it just always sounds weird to me. I feel like when people say toxic nowadays it would have been described with more appropriate magnitude (imo) terms like unhealthy, or enabling, draining, negative, unpleasant, etc in the nineties and earlier. Or just "lovely" if you're talking about it to your friends. If you came across someone talking about a toxic relationship back then it would be about some deep abusive poo poo going on, like a toxic relationship would be so bad it ruins a whole group of friends relationships or reinforces an unhealthy habits. Or maybe recurring physical abuse. I hear it so often now that it really doesn't mean anything anymore. People use toxic to describe basically strangers who say some uncomfortable poo poo sometimes and might be toxic but who knows??? I'm not trying to call out mom bro goon or anyone else either because I think that's an appropriate usage of it. Mom bro goon, you seem painfully aware that there's this unhealthy codependent familial relationship and I think the best thing you can do is just to keep your distance if all else has failed. I get the intent behind using the word "toxic" so I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's just really overused now...
