I'd be first in line to get a child a dog toy because these rules about what is made for what are actually arbitrary and dont mean anything. Which is why I've bought many little stuffies intended for children for my cat, he prefers them to be bigger than most standard cat toys because he loves to grab and kick with his back feet. And working at a gift shop at a zoo for years, I got a decent discount. But there would always be some coworker who said it was weird, why not just buy him cat toys like a normal person? Because I can do whatever I want, Brenda.

Deified Data posted:So basically this guy's issue is he's mad his brother moved on instead of malingering on it like he has, and that his parents never gave him their blessing for betraying his brother. So many words just to say his happiness depends on his brothers' unhappiness. His username is HusbandFatherBrother. I guess two out of three ain't bad.

My (22F) boyfriend (31M) has become obsessed with a book and it’s tearing us apartquote:Throwaway account for obvious reasons. One=third of the time together he's been so obsessed with a racist book that he can't make rent? Get pregnant immediately and nail this prime specimen down! My ex wrote a book about me... quote:Hi guys, I didn't know for sure where to post this but this seemed like the best place. This book sounds horrible, I demand more What one book can save my marriage?! quote:I (39f) have been married for 12 years and my husband (39m) and I are not getting along. He left today on a vacation with friends we were both supposed to go on and said he was moving out when he got back. I agree we need a break. He got on my bad side several months ago with the repeated yelling at me, calling me names etc. Neither of us have been good to each other lately. He will spend his weekend drinking and probably becoming more angry at me but I am going to spend my weekend doing some self care and healing. What is one book I can read that might help me? Our main issue is inability to communicate. Thanks. Comment: quote:A current publication on divorce proceedings in your state would be my recommendation.

MagusofStars posted:It's also pretty difficult to accidentally delete save data on modern PC games. If you're deleting a saved game or User Profile within the game itself, there's usually very obvious "are you sure? warning this cannot be undone are you really sure?" confirmations before deleting or overwriting it. If you're uninstalling the game via a launcher like Steam, the default "Uninstall" option only deletes the game files itself and not the save data. It's definitely on purpose. OP *might* be able to salvage it if he has VSS enabled in Windows. Find the game directory & save folder > right click > Previous Versions then restore back to before his dipshit cousin deleted his save. Bigger question though is why the aunt isn't taking her own drat kid in her house instead of him living with a cousin. Maybe he did something even more monumentally stupid to her to get the boot?

It's one of those books that's constantly recommended and praised on reddit, so people like making fun of its superfans. Please don't engage with this post as if it's a real situation lol, it really is just an esoteric inside joke.

Just a reminder, a six-hour probation is not that big of a loving deal. Especially when you're upset on behalf of someone else that hasn't complained at all. poo poo, just look at FMguru above. I've had to hit them seven times for story reposts and they're still here, having fun.

Is it like Fight Club, where a bunch of dudes think it's a guide of how to act, instead of... not that. I assume there's a natural knee jerk reaction to people wanting to hate popular literature, which is not without merit given some recent notable incidents. It's also one of those things that can get easy viral clicks if you put it in the most negative context, ex. "white man wrote a book glamourizing brutal murders of indigenous peoples, white literary establishment fawns over it". Depiction Equals Endorsement and all that. We're only a year or 2 out from American Dirt being hailed as one of the greatest novels of the generation before actual Mexican authors and critics managed to get attention (after a single scathing NYT review) to out the book as white savior horseshit that is at best ripping ideas from several great existing Mexican novels.

Book nerd with Aspergers doesn’t understand if I just got a date.quote:Basically what it says on the title. I’ve been flirting with a friend I’ve known for a while, I’ve probably failed miserably cause Aspergers, but she for some reason flirted back. I ended up asking her if I could take her dinner after finals week, and she said YES in all caps, that part sounds fake I know so I asked her why and she said cause she misses me. I’m probably over analyzing the situation but honestly I don’t know what to think. Part of me thinks it’s a date but another part of me thinks she might just be trying to play me cause she knows that I’m gullible. Any advice would be appreciated thank you. Even if it's not a date it's a nice dinner with a friend. Cute problems

AITA for not cleaning up my urine in the middle of the night?quote:Context: I was at my friend's apartment, I wanna say a few weeks ago, and we were just spending the night together because my parent's were out of town so I needed a place to hang out. Now, it's later at night, around 2:00 AM I wanna say and I woke up having to pee REALLY bad but I was kind of in a daze because of how early it was. So I go to the bathroom and I guess I miss by a lot and go back to bed.

Nah it's legit good, and I would hope it's clear that everyone in the book is enough of an rear end in a top hat to know it's not meant to be idolising them at all, it just has an overblown online reputation, the same as how you'll see people being like "Brutalist architecture is the coolest type of architecture ever!" which, it is, but, did you arrive at that conclusion through a personal understanding of a lot of different types of architecture or did you just learn about it online, agree and then switch off brain. Blood Meridian is the book version of that

The story changes quit a bit when you think of the person as a girl instead of a dude with his hose. I could see why a friend would be mad at her gal pal for squatting over the floor and not the toilet.

I once went out with a friend for a few drinks and we walked back to his place and passed out. I woke up a couple of hours later to the smell of burning pee and electronics and the sight of him pissing on his girlfriend's computer. I've also gotten to experience a drunk person thinking a bedroom was a bathroom and their pee dripped down 2 floors onto people on the first floor and in the basement. Never trust a drunk to pee in the right place.

The worst part is trying to convince someone that drunk that where they're pissing is most certainly not the toilet. Or anywhere near the bathroom.

Pope Corky the IX posted:Please explain. Men, for better or worse, get a little more leeway when the hose sprays haphazardly (2 AM morning wood), especially from other guys. For a woman to hit the toilet seat, I would imagine she is doing some crazy hover technique to not hit the seat. That, or she wasn't at the toilet to begin with. Now we are missing big context as where the pee ultimately landed. Did they hit the wall behind the toilet, the ceiling, just the floor alone, doused the toilet roll in piss, there are a lot missing clues to unravel this mystery.
