- Comment on is "oh boy" considered a gendered term? 1 week ago:
No, it’s known as an interjection
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 4 weeks ago:
My ex GF bought me those and they were great for the first 12 months then they both deformed.
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 4 weeks ago:
Help you keep the shape when sliding the foot in, especially in nicer shoes.
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 4 weeks ago:
No. I just have large feet. All my shoes are in great condition and the reason I use a shoehorn is to protect the backs.

- Comment on If you had a drain that you knew was clogged only with hair, could you unclog the drain only using Nair? 4 months ago:
Protip… Long zip tie and cut teeth into the edges with little snips.
- Comment on Is a peanut butter sandwich a balanced meal? 5 months ago:
Don’t forget that the valuable peanut oil is separated hydraulically which fractures the peanut meal, and then they add back cheaper soybean oil.
That’s why it separates, and that’s why even organic peanut butter separates, it’s because it’s been hydraulically fractured.
In my opinion, the only peanut butter that is worth a damn is fresh crushed from unsalted roasted peanuts.

- Comment on What is the equivalent stereotype of 'women should all be homemakers,' for men? 5 months ago:
I agree and that’s still poison.
The idea that when something growling outside the cave has everybody shaking inside, it’s the guy’s job to get a pointed stick and go outside, knees knocking, heart pounding.
This is not compatible with modern life. Especially if the person scrounging around outside is a meth-addled woman, and I happen to go out in uppercut her.
- Comment on What is the equivalent stereotype of 'women should all be homemakers,' for men? 5 months ago:
Protectors & providers
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
As brutal as it is to say, people like that have forfeited any determination on their future once they commit such an antisocial act.
- Comment on Does anyone speak hairdresser? I need help communicating. 7 months ago:
The only barber that was ever able to cut my insane hair passed away after an unsuccessful liver transplant and it was at that point I purchased my own professional clippers.
Having bad haircuts my whole life until I found her is literally a point of trauma that I’ve not recovered from and I’m 49 years old now.
- Comment on Why there are 861 roguelike deckbuilders on Steam all of a sudden 7 months ago:
Why is everybody saying slay the spire pioneered the genre when it’s a clone of others?
- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 7 months ago:
It’s more sinister than that, not only did this person go out of their way to be a complete jerk, they spent the whole evening editing their posts and replies, just to provoke conflict.
- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 7 months ago:
You are being trolled, this person made a humongous ruckus and pissed everybody off, and insulted everybody, and is acting like he has no idea what’s going on.
If anybody was a candidate to be permanently nuked from the internet, it’s people like the guy you’re responding to.
- Comment on Do our moderators have the integrity of overcooked pasta or is it more like jello? 7 months ago:
It’s not an easy job being a moderator, no matter how egregious the behavior is, it’s always a difficult decision.
I think though this user has pretty convincingly revealed their underlying motivations, by way of their various posts and their behavior therein.
I was checking the “strength” post in a weird voyeuristic way, just to see the downvotes and look at the squabbling.
Each time I came back, I noticed that they had completely revised the entire post content, along with many of their comments.
The entire thing reeked of bait, trolling, mean-spirited sarcasm… All blended with what seemed to be, at least to me, a very bizarre fixation and fetish-like fascination about a specific topic.
For all the extremely valid criticism Reddit gets, at the very least one of the things they did rock-solid was giving moderators tools to deal with users who were acting in bad faith or outright abusively. For example, they made it extremely easy to automatically filter posts from untrusted new users until they had passed a certain threshold, or other ways to limit their exposure until they had established themselves as part of the community.
I’m not sure how robust, or even what set of tools you have available on this platform.
Whatever you can do to help us participants of this community, I know that I would personally thank you and appreciate it. Sometimes the answer is to ignore these people though, not necessarily bans, because in a way that gives these social deviants what they’re after in the first place.

It’s time to ban this person.
- Comment on Have you ever seen coal in real life? 7 months ago:
As a kid, we used to go along the train tracks and pick up pieces of coal that tumbled out of the cars.
Coal heating was very common especially in the more remote regions of my area, until the late '70s.
- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 7 months ago:
I don’t even understand the question, really.
- Comment on Is the combined knowledge of humanity safer than it has ever been? 7 months ago:
I think we’d be fucked, basically.
- Comment on Is the combined knowledge of humanity safer than it has ever been? 7 months ago:
I have a feeling it is all-but-guaranteed that most of the world’s digital knowledge will be erased overnight during the next event such as this one…
Check out the Carrington Event of 1859.
- Comment on How fatal and painful is it if my belly gets stabbed/ripped open? 7 months ago:
I’m not going to try to talk out my ass here, but years ago I dated a gastroenterologist, and one of the conversations we had centered around suicide attempts from people shooting themselves in the stomach.
She said that was the quickest way to not die, but to ensure that you will spend the rest of your life receiving regular medical care and you’ll never shit or piss normally again. Her message in that conversation to me was that the chances of dying by shooting/stabbing yourself in the gut are very low, but that doesn’t mean it’s consequence-free!
- Comment on Do fingers ever stop growing? Do they shrink as you get older? 7 months ago:
No. Yes.
- Comment on What do you see that you wish others saw? 7 months ago:
That is not a bold claim, that is a factual statement from someone that works directly in the field.
- Comment on What are the strengths of the scientific method? What are its weaknesses? 7 months ago:
I think that’s because there is no answer to “why” - At least not one that would satisfy the human mind.
The best we are ever going to be getting is “it just is”.
- Comment on What do you see that you wish others saw? 7 months ago:
I work in the field of mental health, specifically mostly in the area of recovery mentorship.
This is an area that is effectively dominated by women.
I wish women could see how that within the realm of healing, they have constructed their own systems of power where men are oppressed, abused, belittled, and prevented from accessing those services without standing up to / enduring that level of hatred.
In short, once the oppressed have the guns, they become the oppressors.
- Comment on Dragon's Dogma 2: Review Thread 7 months ago:
It’s also a half finished, borderline empty, mechanically broken, quest broken, AI broken game.
I know people love the combat, and that won me over as well - it’s about as good as you can get. The rest is basically dog shit in my opinion.
- Comment on What are y'all buying on the steam sale? 7 months ago:
I’m not going to elbow drop Owlboy, but I think you should try it within the refund window because in my opinion it’s way overhyped, and does not deliver much mechanically.
- Comment on Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life? 7 months ago:
I don’t want to see horrible people in my forms of entertainment. I don’t want to see the world through their lens or sympathize with them. I don’t want to see them get their comeuppance.
I really think those shows are thinly veiled excuses for people to wallow in spite and delight in suffering.
- Comment on shameless b8 7 months ago:
Okay so NASA lost a $327 million Mars probe because said was transmitting trajectory corrections in the SI Units of Newton-Seconds, but the home base software was interpreting and calculating it as Pound Seconds.
Remembering that there was endless amounts of scientific equipment aboard that took years to make, and the whole enchilada took 10 months traveling through space before it could even crash.
