Fork of Unknown Origins posted:I mean if he’d gone and done his searching and then she finally sees her phone or whatever and decides to answer back, before she actually lied. It’s a bad look if you’re going straight to detective mode. She lied twice before she even left the house, first with "K told me she had to work this day so I was tasked with all the planning," which is blatantly not the case even in your scenario. The second lie "I asked her whats the deal and she says she turned it off for safety concerns since she didnt want everyone seeing it all the time anymore," was slightly fuzzier, but it's obvious that she was lying and the real reason was that she was doing something she wanted to hide from him. When someone is telling you multiple lies and changes something that would give away the lie and tries to downplay it, there's a pretty good reason to be suspicious. It's a bad look to be lying to and cheating on your partner, not being the person who realized something was off and spotted the bad look. I can't see how someone other than a person into that kind of deception themselves (and thus doesn't like the idea of getting caught) or a doormat (so thinks confronting a partner is bad, even if you're right) would think what that guy did gives a 'bad look', Columbo clearly had a lot of clues.

Dan Savage, may he rest in peace, had at least one good take, which is that snooping is wrong unless you find something, in which case you were right to follow your instincts. You have to fess up either way, but if they make a bigger deal out of the snooping than the cheating, they kinda ended the relationship for you right there. This is literally what happened in my buddy’s ongoing journey of finding out his partner wasn’t being faithful. Several conversations to get her to understand that in no way would he ever feel guilty for looking considering what he found, it just won’t ever happen, stop bringing it up. Yeah; they’re getting divorced.

The corollary is if you genuinely feel the need to snoop then trust is gone. Either end it or fix it, don't just keep going

MagusofStars posted:Any car experts out there who can speculate on this? Could this cause the engine to catch on fire, unexpectedly die at speed, or some other catastrophic failure that risks serious physical harm? Lots of things you could add to oil and pretty much all of them are going to make the engine not work in some catastrophic way. Attempted murder would probably be a stretch, but like if your engine throws a rod you're going to have a sad time.

Adding an abrasive to engine oil could certainly wreck it, possibly causing it to lock up at an inopportune time. It's not likely to kill you tho I guess it could.

Contaminated oil can cause effects like that, but more often you'll start getting serious issues well before that point that make the car undrivable without being an immediate safety concern.

Any catastrophic failure of an engine can be deadly if it occurs at highway speed. But there's any number of mystery liquids put into oil that render it unsafe even after a flush, and there's no guarantee that the sisters wouldn't lie through their teeth about what they put into it (and that's before the actual death threats happened)

My guess, lacking any evidence but given the rest of the vandalism, is just that they pissed in it or something. Which isn't *good* but none of the rest of it suggests "premeditated sabotage" like finsing just the right engine additive would.

My granddad put the wrong oil in his car right before he died, which eventually bricked it so hard that it was unrecoverable. This was not on purpose, but it's shocking how much you can wreck a car with oil crap.

Invisible Clergy posted:Were there any downsides to this policy? Like Baronjutter already said, only for people who didn't like women having control over their own lives. Social conservatives generally were not much of a thing for the first couple decades, as the Soviet government made it a policy to suppress the Orthodox Church which was the wellspring of much of those attitudes in the old empire, and many had fallen out on the wrong side of the civil war and gotten themselves killed during it, or exiled/purged in its aftermath. Sadly, a fair amount of patriarchal bullshit came back in with Stalin and his various cronies, though women did retain a remarkable level of civil equality in principle if not always practice.

cat botherer posted:Does anybody actually call off weddings immediately before they're scheduled (barring something pretty bad)? Just do the ceremony and annul that poo poo, goddamn. You aren't getting out of paying the caterer. My brother called off his wedding 2 weeks before it. It was pretty big event from what I remember, lots of family coming in from out of town, not many refunds, etc. His fiancé dodged that bullet. Her parents and our parents were pissed. I think it would have been way weirder to go thru with the charade and then annul it.

Either end it or fix it, don't just keep going Yeah, I'm old so I would say break up at the point that you feel the need to know your partner's location at all times. Although he was right to check - it ain't paranoia if they're actually out to get you. Did anyone catch the discourse that happened with sharing your location on Love is Blind this season? A lot of internet detectives think Jeramey [sic] was so confident about lying about his location mid-cheating because he left his phone in his car and didn't realize his Apple Watch location was being broadcast instead.

Traditionally the stereotypical thing to put in a car's gas/oil to destroy the engine is sugar (which doesn't do anything special, but will physically gently caress things up as much as any other large granular contaminant would.) I don't know if this bit of received wisdom is still circulating among kids their age or if it's just something us olds remember these days.

I don't know if this bit of received wisdom is still circulating among kids their age or if it's just something us olds remember these days. Start with The Monkey Wrench Gang and then read the rest of Edward Abbey. Then maybe you can still find some of the George Hayduke books somewhere.

AITAH - My ex-fiancee tried to get my wife to cheat on mequote:I think my ex-fiancee Jess (31F) might have tried to get my wife Olivia (30F) drunk and cheat on me. My wife thinks I am overreacting and overthinking the whole situation. Can someone tell me if I would be an rear end in a top hat to ask Olivia to stop being friends with Jess immediately? Comments: quote:Jesus.. I never even considered the possibility that Jess might be planning to spike my wife's drink that night. It might be lucky for my wife to call me and be there before something bad happened. Get this guy a book deal! "So my ex-fiancee stalked me through social media, moved to the town where my wife and I were, started a wine and paint group targetting my wife to get her in a bar piled with drinks to cheat on me!" I don't know how the book would end but I'm sure it'd sell millions.

BF is a shithead obviously but what the gently caress is the point of having a nice car that’s “never driven”?

Okay so boyfriend is being a dick not respecting boundaries, but dad is also hella weird. Who gets a collector car and never takes it out or touches it? Like what's the point? That's as bad as the people that collect Beanie Babies and don't let their kids play with em. Enjoy the things you collect, otherwise it's just a waste. Anyway I have a bone to pick with y'all goons wondering why people without kids/assets/etc get legally married. Don't forget a lot of us have lovely families and if a spouse is in the hospital they could legally and easily lock us out of making medical decisions. This is rampant with LGBT people especially-- and I really don't want either my lovely family or my husband's lovely family to do something like this if one of us gets hurt or something. We got married so we're each other's next-of-kin. That's insanely important these days. E: having an expensive car and never using it really is a terrible waste. My neighbor has several rare vehicles and drives them often. Sometimes I get to borrow one and show up to dinner in a wildly rare Porche, or do things like drive the 15-of-50 Land Rover Anniversary Edition to work. They're meant to be fun. Like sell it to someone that will drive it, my dude. Scathach fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Mar 26, 2024 |

Assuming it's rare enough to actually be growing in value, the Ferrari might appreciate more or command more money if say it's at 980mi and driving it more would roll it over 4 digits. It's a weird market, so it is understandable (not rational) if the dad is trying to get 550k out of the car instead of 500.
