Am I too late for sink cats olylifter posted:AITA for having sex with my boyfriend’s younger brother after he asked for an open relationship? This is brutal, albeit deserved. But like Clark Nova mentioned, will probably cause problems between the brothers in the long run, she could have easily picked anyone else to make the point.

I always wondered who was actually buying Grand Wagoneers; apparently it's people who want to show that they can spend 100 grand on a vehicle for their nanny to drive, but don't want the help to have something actually nice.

digitalist posted:Am I too late for sink cats When she asked him if he was eyeballing someone else when he asked her to open the relationship the jackass pulled out a hookup ap that he already had a date on and showed it to her. She wasn't making a point, she was deliberately hurting him in revenge for him hurting her. She wasn't exactly thinking about if it hurt the little brother too.

She wasn't making a point, she was deliberately hurting him in revenge for him hurting her. Absolutely, having the hookup app already up and ready to go was excessive in its own right, and in response she just took the ball and ran with it. Hurting for the sake of revenge was the goal and she succeeded brilliantly, that will leave a mark.

Are Range Rovers even particularly huge? I'm sure that outside of Freedomland they're classified as aircraft carriers and cannot be driven without a dedicated team of pilot craft to clear the way, but I've never thought of it being remarkably large compared to the usual assortment of helltrucks populating most suburban parking lots.

They aren't. 207", which is comparable to a 2005 Expedition (205"). Much smaller than a modern Expedition Max or Navigator L (222"). I wonder how many SUVs we would have if you had to pass a special SUV parking test. Godspeed skatekid. TheDeadlyShoe fucked around with this message at 00:23 on Aug 14, 2023 |

If this isn’t the perfect illustration of so many OPs mindset. Okay, I guess I can understand that it’s your property/sentimental item/human right - but how exactly does that outweigh me getting it right now because I want it??

Tarezax posted:I actually personally knew a pair of identical twins in college where one guy was straight and the other one was gay. Sexuality can be weird like that, it's not entirely genetic. It's even odds that, if your identical twin is gay or trans, you are gay or trans. Which is much better than chance, but it's definitely not a guarantee. That effect is still probably mostly due to environmental factors rather than genetic. Developing in the same person at the same time is a big factor.

DeeplyConcerned posted:Conflicts like these are exactly the reason I proposed my unique naming system. Instead of names, we can all go by mathematical hashes of our name plus uniquely identifying information like your date and time of birth location/Hospital mother and father's name, etc. boom no more conflict. Plus each name uniquely identifies an entity. Probably because there is a common case where your proposed hash is weak? Hint:  also, what do you do if one of the fields is not available (e.g. father), which timezone is datetime of birth in, what are you going to do about people not born in a hospital, what are you going to do about people who later acquire more information than they previously had, what character set are you using for the name, and what about boys named Sue?

Do people think genetics are the only forces at play that make people different? I guess they do, because apparently it's a big problem for pet cloning companies when the cloned cat comes out with a totally different coat and personality. There's so many other biological factors in play, from stuff as simple as the mother's hormone levels at that particular moment.

I mean no one look at the Duggars or anything.

Cowslips Warren posted:wasn't there some study that showed the more sons a woman had, the more likely they are, further down the birth line, to be gay? Yeah, there's a popular theory that it's a type of biological birth/population control, since the same effect is seen in some animal populations. Like anything it's probably a tiny look at a massive picture though. Funny ring story: I'll probably end up with my (deceased) Dad's wedding ring, my Mom still wears his other wedding ring on a necklace, along with her wedding ring. The reason there's another one is that my Dad lost his at one point, he didn't want to tell my Mom and piss her off, so he went out and bought an identical one and just wore that. A couple years later they were cleaning out the closet and found the original ring in a crusty pair of jeans going in the trash pile, at which point he fessed up. Now that I'm thinking about dads and rings, I wonder if there's a reason that OP thinks this ring should be up for grabs? Like maybe Dad was a shithead alcoholic, and OP thinks her Mom shouldn't have any sentiment for him because of that? It sure seems like OP doesn't give a poo poo about him or his memory.

AITA for taking a job even though my step sister wanted it?quote:I (26F) have a stepsister, Maggie (28). We work in similar fields. Recently, my stepdad’s (Maggie’s dad) brother let him know of a job opportunity with a company owned by an old acquaintance of theirs.

Throughout the course of our relationship, at times I have found little rolled up pieces of toilet paper scattered over the floor. I've simply picked them up and not thought much of it. quote:NTA. As horrified as I am by his "Feces Pieces" I'm more horrified that he knew it was happening for years and left them there for you.

 This is Jessica. She is very smart.  She can be stubborn about some things, though.  This is Porthos. She is constantly attached to me, or in front of my computer in some fashion.    Using her uncle Rain's butt for a pillow. I do not have any good recent pictures of her sister Athos or the other cats; I will fix that soon-ish. (There was an Aramis, but only 3 of Cassandra's kittens survived being born and Aramis failed to thrive  )

There's so many other biological factors in play, from stuff as simple as the mother's hormone levels at that particular moment. I heard a cloning story on NPR. A rancher had a prize bull that was gentle and friendly like a dog despite its massive size. The bull suddenly died and the rancher was so heartbroken he had the bull cloned. The clone was nothing like the old one and almost killed the rancher by goring him.

QuarkJets posted:I know a guy named Achilles. He's not Greek, he's from New Mexico. I guess some parents just want to punish their kids before they're even born Kinda funny that's considered unusual compared to say, Hector. Then again come to think of it, that and Jason are probably the only classical Greek heroes I can think of whose names wouldn't raise an eyebrow in the English speaking world today. Ulysses gets an honourable mention.

The bull Wait, is cloning animals just a thing that’s done casually for sentimental reasons now? There was a ton of commotion over Dolly some time back, but that was a lab experiment and since then cloning hasn’t really been in the news. I guess it has since been commercialized? And are there any practical applications other than rich people who don’t cope with loss well?

And are there any practical applications other than rich people who don’t cope with loss well? Honestly I've mostly heard it as a service for rich people to try to revive their dead pets right now. There's obviously a ton of other applications but legally and ethically most of them are unexplored. Also currently clones can have pretty dramatically reduced lifespans depending on when the sample was taken because they have reduced telomeres. Also they're prone to some health issues, mostly difficulty with getting pregnant themselves and issues around birth. Still its definitely A Thing for farms to clone studs and such right now, costs about 20k.

WIBTA for sabotaging my boyfriend's hookup with his girlfriend by filling his sex playlist with DJ Crazytimesquote:I (28NB, they/he) have known my boyfriend (call him Cee, 29M, he/him) for some 15ish years now. As long as I've known him, he has been on and off again with his girlfriend (call him Tee, 29NB, he/him). Respectfully, and with love, Cee and Tee are two of the worst and most annoying people I know. I want to marry them both specifically so that I can study them under a microscope like a parasitic virus. ChickenOfTomorrow fucked around with this message at 06:24 on Aug 14, 2023 |
